British band The Vamps (yes band .. NOT boy band), one of our favorite new artists, have a busy summer coming up!   Their debut album, Meet the Vamps, will be released in the UK and Europe on April 14th.  (We’re still waiting on a US date!)  To celebrate the release, they will be doing a series of meet & greets, in store signings and shows.  We caught their first headlining show in NYC at the Gramercy Theatre and can’t wait to see them again!

We can hardly keep up with their crazy schedule – so here is all of the info in one place!  We’ll be updating as soon as any new info comes in.   And if you’re lucky enough to be meeting The Vamps, make sure you read our Fangirl Handbook on how to make the most of your meet & greet!

Backstreet Boys Announce Summer 2014 North American Tour on GMA

3 Comments

We’re so glad we made the switch from The Today Show to Good Morning America recently – GMA seems to get all of the important fangirl announcements.  Like this morning, when Backstreet Boys revealed they will be heading back out on a North American tour this summer!   We were getting majorly concerned that it was already March and we had no boyband tours to look forward to this year (We even made a list of forgotten bands who could reunite) so we are so excited that Backstreet’s Back in 2014!  This will be their second North American tour since Kevin Richardson rejoined the group last year, just in time for BSB’s 20th Anniversary.   Avril Lavigne will be joining the tour as well, so get ready for a night of early 2000s nostalgia.

Tickets go on sale to the general public Friday, March 21st 2014 at 10am local time.  Be sure to visit BackstreetBoys.com for info about fan club pre-sales, VIP packages, upgrades and after parties!

In case you’re new here, here’s what you need to know about AJR:
AJR is a complete DIY project – brothers Adam, Jack & Ryan write and produce all of their own music, and even mix and record songs in their living room.  The NYC-based band got their start busking in parks, and has since opened for acts like Hoodie Allen, Demi Lovato, The Wanted, and most recently The Vamps.  Their mix of the musical styles of the 50s and 60s, with modern influences, gives them a unique sound.  These multi-talented brothers play everything from the ukelele to the melodica on stage, and their energetic live performance is not to be missed.

Make sure you download a copy of the “I’m Ready EP” on iTunes or Amazon before the show!  Stay tuned for more dates.
