We were 17 when we started,” he explained to KTLA 5’s Sam Rubin. We had so much fun! It was a huge part of our young adulthood, even almost childhood. “We always knew that we wanted to get back together at some point. When it comes to getting the band back together, Maslow said it was inevitable. Not only is he back on tour with the pop group Big Time Rush, but he’s also starring in a new movie. Please look at the time stamp on the story to see when it was last updated. They’ll be on their feet the whole time and whether you know us or haven’t heard even one song before, you’re gonna have a good time just watching the show.This is an archived article and the information in the article may be outdated. We hope and believe that nobody’s gonna be bored. There will be pyro, we have other dancers on this tour. We get fans singing and try to create a really phenomenal experience for everybody. There are four of us and we’re constantly moving.
James: Well I love music and going to concerts but I get a little bit bored if somebody just stands there and sings. Kidzworld: Why will young fans who aren’t that familiar with your music really enjoy seeing you on tour this summer? We get to see a little more than just the bus. I’ve got a dog named Fox and Carlos has a big German Shepard.Īlmost every day we’ll go to a gym in whatever town we’re in so, if we run there, we’ll see stuff which is always fun. James: We’ve got an X-box on the bus and made a little recording studio in the back and we bring our dogs so we have them to play with. Kidzworld: When on a tour, what do you guys do to kick back? Do you just watch Blu-Rays or play Wii or video games on the bus? If the timing is right, I’d like to jump at that opportunity. I think they are doing The Flash, one of the cooler superheroes. Getting very specific, I’ve always wanted to play a superhero. James: Right now my focus is on Big Time Rush but I can’t wait to do other projects in music and acting. #JAMES FROM BIG TIME RUSH MOVIE#
Kidzworld: So cool! Personally, what goal do you still have for yourself a Broadway show, a solo album, a big movie part, being a director? What? I got to take a boat over to this island to have a prom. I went to Coronado (San Diego area) with Avalon High School. One of the coolest one was my Freshman year.
James: I went every year from my Freshman year through being a Senior because I had friends in different grades. Kidzworld: It’s prom time so can you briefly re-tell me your personal prom story? When there is no work involved and no pressure from that, we have a great time. We’re all unique people but on the vacation we had a great time. Crazy, right? We get sick of each other on a daily basis but each of us is so different from the others and that’s where any arguments come from. Kidzworld: So you guys still hang out together even when you’re not working? James: Well, we had five days off on our schedule so we try to take advantage. Kidzworld: What is a typical day like for you when you are NOT working? I respect the guy fans at this point but, having said that, 'NSync was so big and successful that I listened to their music even though I didn’t purposely seek it out. I was at an age where I just wanted to skate and surf and boy bands weren’t the coolest thing for a guy then. James: I never really listened to them then. When you were a kid or teen did you listed to boy bands of that era like Boyz 2 Men or ‘NSync, Backstreet Boys etc.? But, now that there are multiple bands like us doing well, it’s better for all of us. Backstreet and ‘NSync” but no current ones around so people weren’t sure they wanted them back. When we started there were no boy bands around at the time. The bigger they become or boy bands as a whole become, the better it is for all of us. They must have thanked us three times a night every night. I’m sure they would have done well regardless but they’re very nice guys. One Direction opened for us on the tour so the first time they ever played in America was opening for us so, obviously, we’re not hatin’ on them.
James: We’re not opposed to them at all.Kidzworld: How do you guys really feel about One Direction or The Wanted because they hit it big after you guys? Do you feel as if they are copying? We love doing this and this is our sound and we want to continue doing it for a long time. I think Big Time Rush has become more of a unified band since we started and we’ve kind of taken the reins. It was fantastic but we’re all individual artists and writing for a long time so the second album (“Elevate”) much more reflects what we like to hear because we wrote the majority of it.

James: At the beginning, we were focusing on the TV show so a lot of the music was written by other producers and writers.
