Excited about The Backstreet Boys doing another tour? Well, this past Saturday they kicked off their North American Tour in Chicago at the FirstMerit Bank Pavilion formerly Charter One Pavilion at Northerly Island. Due to a production mishave the concert was cut short because of a strict 11 p.m. curfew set by the city.

Tons of The Backstreet Boys fans were upset after the big concert was cut short this weekend. They begged and pleaded for authorities to let them continue but their request didn't work.

One of the band members can be heard yelling "I'm not leaving, I'm doing one more!" as the men pace the stage trying to figure out the situation. With almost 10 minutes of banter and asides to the audience, the group could have probably fit a brief a capella number in the time it took for things to get sorted out. Ultimately, things get especially nasty when AJ McLean's mic gets cut (around 5:52). Watch below.

FirstMerit Band Pavilion released this statement via their Facebook page blaming the time crunch on the band's elaborate setup saying they started late and thus didn't have enough to finish:

Saturday August 3, 2013

Last night, the Backstreet Boys opened their North American Tour to a sold out crowd at FirstMerit Bank Pavilion on Northerly Island in Chicago, IL.

As has always been the case, the Backstreet Boys production is unlike anything else on the road. Getting this new, state of the art show ready, however, caused the doors to be delayed and the beginning of the show to be pushed back. FirstMerit Bank Pavilion has a strict curfew of 11:00 PM. Given the artist was running behind on setting their production up, the show had to end before the set could be finished.

There were erroneous reports of the Chicago Police shutting the show down. The venue on Northerly Island is bound to an ordinance that requires all performances to conclude prior to 11:00 pm. Venue management worked with the artist to complete their show within the allotted time and, when the show exceeded the curfew, the artist was asked to conclude the show.

The Backstreet Boys tour continued this evening in St. Louis and, at this time, there is not word of a return date.

It has been announced today that The Backstreet Boys will be returning to Chicago to make UP their concert that was cut short and the information on the new show is expected to be announced in the coming months.

The band's promoter now says the group is planning a special concert for their next trip to Chicago. Fans who brought tickets to last Friday's concert will be able to take part in a discounted pre-sale for the new concert.
