Call them bubblegum. Call them a boy band. Call them, well seeing as how they're much older than any Jonas, Backstreet Men. It doesn't matter to Carter.

Saturday night, the Man burned. Over 49,000 people watched. A windstorm had kept most of us captive during the day. What brings 49,000 people together to put themselves to these tests?
