After attending Big Time Rush's Better With Boston concert at the Agganis Arena on their Better With U tour, all I have to say is... music sounds better with you!
BTR puts on an extravagant show full of trampolines, fireworks, confetti and even a Big Time Rush blimp flying around the crowd! Not to mention the guys' performance, their singing and dancing has gotten even better since the last time I saw them. Kendall, James, Carlos and Logan performed a mix of songs from their new album Elevate, as well as songs from their debut album, often heard on their show.
During their sweet pop ballad "Cover Girl," the guys dedicated it to all of the girls in the audience, and even headed into the crowd to sing to some girls, making the performance even more intimate. But if that wasn't enough, the guys continued their tradition of bringing up a girl from the audience to serenade her with their ballad "Worldwide," in which the lucky girl was seated between Logan and James, got a hug from Carlos and even a kiss on the cheek from Kendall as the guys performed the song.
Though the entire show was full of great music, the highlight for me would have to be their encore of "City Is Ours." The guys came back out on stage wearing Boston sports jerseys as they performed the song, the whole audience standing and getting into it. Throughout the performance, the guys ripped off their jerseys and threw them into the crowd as confetti fell throughout the arena.
On a final note, opening for Big Time Rush is UK boy band One Direction. This is the boys' first tour in the US, and they perform a great set to get the crowd pumped before BTR comes out. They perform their singles "One Thing" and "What Makes You Beautiful," among other songs from their new album, out this month.If you have the chance to see BTR and 1D on the Better With U tour, don't miss out! And if you can't catch BTR this time around, don't worry, because the guys are heading out on a summer tour with Cody Simpson starting in July!
