» I still remember the day Bodyslam walked into the Post's offices to promote their eponymous debut album in 2002. I was a rookie, and so were Artiwara Kongmalai, Tanadol Changsawek and Rattapol Phanchet. As I recall, they were awkward, gangly and didn't quite grasp the entire concept of a press tour.

These musicians are now all in different stages of their careers, with some in hiatus and others making a comeback.

» Backstreet Boys' youngest member Nick Carter, 35, urged the Thai crowd to "act like you're 15" on Wednesday night. There wasn't any need for Carter to offer such encouragement because all 35 year-olds present at Backstreet Boys' "In a World Like This" tour behaved exactly like that.
