Ok who else out there loved them so much when they were younger??
I'm watching C4 and its boyband/girlband songs and they have done a few NKOTB songs.
And the bestest news is they have gotten back together and touring and releasing new songs.

OMG, I was so into them!Joey McIntyre was my fave!! A friend emailed me a link of their website just this week and something about them touring etc!
I saw them in concert in 1993...Did they tour in NZ back then?

Opps I wasn't sure as I was hidden in Feilding then and they probably only came to Auckland. If they came down here now I would still go and see them.

Yip I was a HUGE NKOTB fan and went to their Auckland concert when I was about 15 or 16 - my fav was Jordan Knight too. Saw some recent pictures of them and I have to say that the best looking guy that I think is probably Jon Knight and Joey (best aging)!

I LOVED NKOTB too!!! I actually named my first cat after Joseph (called the cat Josephine!!)
And I had tapes too, in my little pink radio!
I used to play their videos over and over and pretend I was in the audience and that they were singing just to me!!!!!!!! (oh the shame........)
I wasn't allowed to go to the concert
Honestly, if they come here again, I will definitely go!!!! Would be a fun blast from the past
