SHEBOYGAN, WI (November 8, 2023) - The Weill Center for the Performing Arts, a 1,150-seat live event venue located in downtown Sheboygan’s growing arts and entertainment district announced Pop 2000 Tour with Chris Kirkpatrick of *NSYNC, O-Town, Ryan Cabrera & LFO will come to the Weill Center on Friday, June 7 at 7:30 p.m. Tickets go on sale to the public Thursday, November 9 at noon.

The Pop 2000 Tour features host Chris Kirkpatrick of *NSYNC who will introduce the audience to a catalog of legendary boy band bangers from the early 2000s. O-Town, Ryan Cabrera and LFO will join Kirkpatrick on the stage to transport the audience back in time to the glorious 2000s as they perform their original hits and some of the most popular songs of the decade. Chris Kirkpatrick is an American singer, dancer, actor, and voice actor best known for his work as a founding member of the pop group *NSYNC. As a voice actor, he has worked on numerous kids shows, including voicing the character of Chip Skylark on “The Fairly Oddparents.” In 2022, he competed in Season 3 of “Celebrity Big Brother” and “The Masked Singer.” Amidst the long-awaited return of *NSYNC and their new single “Better Place,” Pop 2000 Tour is the perfect opportunity to relive this definitive era of boy bands. O-Town’s story began in 1999 when “Making the Band” chronicled the rise to success of OTown throughout three seasons of the series on both ABC and MTV. The group’s first two full- length albums included #1 singles, “Liquid Dreams” and “All or Nothing” and the Top 40 hit “We Fit Together.” Members Erik-Michael Estrada, Trevor Penick, Jacob Underwood, and Dan Miller will bring their songs to life at the Pop 2000 Tour. Ryan Cabrera is the singer and songwriter behind ubiquitous smashes such as “On the Way Down” and “Shine On,” as well as albums including 2004’s Take It All Away, which hit #8 on the Billboard Top 200. Ryan was also featured heavily on MTV’s “Ashlee Simpson Show” and “The Hills.” LFO burst onto the scene in 1999 with the #1 smash hit "Summer Girls." They followed with another top-five hit in "Girl on TV" and the top-ten hit, "Every Other Time." Currently, lone surviving member Brad Fischetti keeps the name of LFO alive, performing the songs to fans, new and old.
