I just went to the New Kids On The Block concert!!!! It was freakin' RAD!!
My 13 year old self AND my 31 year old self are COMPLETELY thrilled! They did all their old stuff, and they OWNED it! They threw in lots of the old dance moves which really made it fun. And of course all the new stuff which was sexier and edgy-er (But Mom, it's got a good beat!)We had tickets for an upper level, but when we got up there the usher redirected us to a table to get reseated. Apparently that section was closed. So we got AWESOME seats in the lowest section that isn't on the floor, DEAD CENTER! AWESOME! I'm a little hoarse and soaked in sweat, and it was so worth every single second!
I am a Donnie Wahlberg fan from back in the day, and I still am! He did all the flow in the new songs, which was awesome, singing, guitar-playing, booty-shaking, and
teasing about taking his clothes off. He did not. Danny, for those who love him, did some awesome break dancing. Joey and Jordan did most of the singing, although Joey's voice, in my opinion, was stronger and really pretty. They had a part where they came down onto a daiz in the middle of the floor crowd and performed. We were close enough to have a great view. OH - I went with my sister in law Jess and friends Karly (or Carly? Carley? Sorry, girl) and Heather. We took pictures, and as soon as they are emailed to me, they will be posted for you.
I know all you ladies of the eighties are JEALOUS JEALOUS JEALOUS! It makes me want to buy a Tiger Beat! It was, by far, the FUNNEST night!

That was the first concert I ever went to. I was in eighth grade. I can't get over the feeling that a big joke is being played on the masses and we are all falling for it. Does anyone else feel that way?
P.S. Check out my blog. You better hurry. I can't promise it won't be deleted in a couple days like the other ones. (How do you like my new profile picture?) :)
I don't even remember you being a NKOTB fan!! How funny. Katy & I had our walls PLASTERED with their pictures.
Drew used to get phone calls from girls in his neighborhood accusing him of being Donnie.
Glad you had fun!
New Kids on the Block let's rock!!!! I am jealous. The only way I could be more jealous is if young M.C. was their opener.
That is so hilarious. It sounds like you had a great time. I never got on the NKOTB wagon but my sister Shelly was a big fan.
Where's Elvis when you need him?
I'm still living their hit...Hangin' Tough!!! Saw them in concert at Disneyland my senior year. (Of course it rocked because I had loved them for a lot longer.) I think they got even better looking!?!?! Bring on the 80's to counter all this....what are we calling music these days? :)
