From boy-band to genuine article – Hanson plays Six Flags Over Texas<\/strong><\/p>\n

Malcolm Mayhew<\/strong>
\n Star-Telegram<\/strong><\/p>\n

Hanson is one of the few teen acts — maybe the only one — to survive teen-act hell.<\/p>\n

But they’ve paid a price.<\/p>\n

When the Hanson brothers — Isaac, Zac and Taylor– released their 1997 debut, Middle Of Nowhere, they did so just as the cut-throat boy-band race began.<\/p>\n

Didn’t make much difference that they played instruments and wrote songs– they were young and cute and they guys who did that MMMBop song. A boy-band, it seemed, they were forever doomed to be.<\/p>\n

With this year’s This Time Around though, Hanson managed to free itself of the boy-band label. Time may be ticking its way off the charts, but it’s simply a more genuine, not to mention grittier, record.
\nHanson may have lost a lot of fans when the guys invited Blues Traveler singer\/harmonica devil, John Popper to blow his heart out on a couple of tracks, but they gained credibility– which you simply cannot buy.<\/p>\n

And live they are in an absolutely different universe than “NSync’ and all those others.<\/p>\n

There are no costume changes, no explosions, no props, no flying drummers. It is a rock ‘n’ roll show in the simplest of terms: They walk on stage, say “Hi”, then play.<\/p>\n

You will never see the Backstreet Boys do that. Ever.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
