Concert Review: Hanson at House of Blues

It's been 14 years since Hanson invaded our ears with their infectious hit “MMMBop.” But to the nearly sold-out audience at House of Blues last night, it seemed like it was just yesterday.

The three Oklahoma brothers brought their Musical Ride Tour to town for a night filled with sing-alongs, jumping, and dancing. They played songs from almost all of their albums, including a handful from their latest, last year's Shout It Out.

But this tour is all about spotlighting one of the eight albums from their 16-year career and performing a huge chunk of songs that are rarely brought out onstage. Last night it was 2004's Underneath.

While some of the album's lesser-known tracks lost some of the crowd near the middle of the band's two-hour set, Hanson picked things up near the end of their set, when they unloaded all of the hits and fan favorites, including, you guessed it, "MMMBop."
