NKOTB Reunion News

The rumors can stop now because this information has been confirmed!

This news is for any 21 to 30+ year old woman, who, in the late 80s and early 90s, grew up listening to the pop tunes of the now famous Boston-based group.

To mark the 20th anniversary of the debut of "Hangin' Tough," original boy band predecessors, NKOTB--formerly known as New Kids on the Block--are finally getting back together! Brothers Jonathan (my favorite) and Jordan Knight, Joe McIntyre, Donnie Wahlberg, and Danny Wood will be reuniting on NBC's "Today" show on Friday, April 4th!

This news has been 14 years in the making! The "Kids" all went their separate ways in 1994 (Joe and Jordan had solo music careers, Donnie became a Hollywood actor, Danny is a record producer, and Jonathan became a real estate developer), which left many female, teen-aged hearts broken.

This recent news makes us "Blockheads"--the nickname that the media dubbed the New Kids fans--all giddy inside and is bringing back fond childhood memories of the songs "(You Got It) The Right Stuff," "Please Don't Go Girl," and "Hangin' Tough."

The "Kids" will be appearing on the "Today" show to announce the release of their 'Greatest Hits' CD (featuring 4 new tracks), a new album (to be released later this year), and a possible concert tour {here's hoping that my area will be on their itinerary}!

I'm ready for the "Kids" return. Are you?! :)
