New Kids on The Block Reunion?



So maybe I am notorious for liking cheesy music, but I grew up loving New Kids on the Block. Today, I was pleasantly surprised to see in my e-mail People magazine reporting NKOTB is getting back together!!!! It doesn't say when, just that there will be a reunion.

Oh, boy what a lovely day. I can get my NKOTB dolls out and play with them again. And all my Bop and Big Bopper magazines. Maybe I'll even put a poster on my wall...just kidding. O.K. really I need to take this 'Step by Step.'

I remember going to their concert in Birmingham, AL in 6th grade and sitting front row. I even got my picture in the newspaper. Wow it was so awesome. A bodyguard lifted me up to the stage to touch Joey McIntyre. What a glourious moment after waving homemade signs. Those were some nice signs with glitter and cut out pictures of the guys all over them.

Now we can only hope NKOTB will hop on a tour bus for a reunion tour....I doubt it they have "kids" of their own now. I don't think that's happening. If it does I'm there though! I think I know a few ladies out there who would like to go too.

Who's still Hangin' Tough?

I will believe this when I see it. I remember a VH1 show a few years ago when they tried to reunite the New Kids, and only Jordan and Jon were for it. Jon was hesitant, too. Danny and Donnie wouldn't even speak to the crew.. and Joey played along, but then said no way.

I don't know.. I think these guys have moved on to bigger and better things.

If there's a reunion tour, you and I will go.

Yeah the 80's...a awesome time for great bands. Amber, you made me think back to 1983 when I was also at a concert in Birmingham, Al. but it was the band "Heart"...and like you, I got a friend to lifted me up and I touch Ann & Nancy...but it wasn't a glourious moment for me, when Heart's bodyguards beat the crap out of me and I was in a B-Ham jail for the 3 days!!...ahhh the 80's
