“I remember it like it was yesterday. I heard them on Much Music and the song was “We got it going on”. It was a instant love for them. I bought the CD and starting buying posters and magazines. I asked my mom to buy me tickets to the show. They played at Lakewood High school. It was a very small venue. I was so excited. My mom came through and bought me tickets. I took my best friend Kim! I was 12 and she was 13! We had excellent seats. The boys during the last song even strayed us with water guns. It was so much fun. Since then I have seen them perform 10 times in numerous states and venues. My boyfriend got to meet them in Pittsburgh. I haven’t met them yet…but I still have time!”
