This won’t just be your average show, the singers warn. “We’re gonna put together a show unlike any other show that anyone has ever seen,” Backstreet Boys resident blond Nick Carter shares in the promotional video for the upcoming performances. “Can fans expect to see all the hits? Of course!” adds Brian Littrell. (Consider “You Want It That Way” officially on the set list, then.) “Be prepared, ladies and gentlemen,” sums up A.J. McLean. Looks like fans can also expect their signature dapper outfits and (hopefully) synchronized dance moves to come into play on stage. Recently, the Boys have performed at [a few choice events](http://time.com/4232781/gigi-hadid-lip-sync-battle-backstreet-boys-larger-than-life/?iid=sr-link3), collaborated [with Florida Georgia Line](http://www.rollingstone.com/country/news/hear-florida-georgia-lines-smooth-jam-with-backstreet-boys-w435354), and launched a [“BSBmoji” pack](https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/bsbmoji-by-backstreetboys/id1149820078?mt=8?app=messages) for Apple’s new iMessage.
