T he internet got a new folk hero yesterday when a Reddit user managed to Rick Roll Rick Astley himself. The image was a photo of the young pop star riding around on a bicycle backstage in Las Vegas on his very first tour. This is from my 1st tour in 89, backstage in Vegas. After posting the flashback picture, Astley, who is a bit of a Reddit regular and legend thanks to a few famous interactions with fans on the site, stuck around to chat with fans and answer questions. The user claimed they had met Astley backstage when they were 12 and posted a link presumably to a photo of the two of them kicking it at a concert.
