"The last show with Backstreet Boys, they have that song 'Just Want You To Know,'" Dill explained. "And that video, they dressed up all '80s and stuff. So we talked to the people on the tour, and I think basically everyone knew but the guys. We were up on these tiers above the stage where all this fire and streamers go off from, and during that song we sorta came down in this V formation thing. They were really caught off guard by it.
