They're Back - Officially!
Filed under: Music Minute
Late January we reported that NKOTB were considering a reunion.
Now reports have been confirmed that news. How anti-climactic!
New Kids On The Block, the original N'Sync all-boy band, will be performing together for the first time in years on April 4th, on the Today show. Yeah, that's THIS Friday.
NKTOB, consisting of Jordan Knight, Jonathan Knight, Joey McIntyre, Danny Wood, and Donnie Wahlberg are back together. But will this be as successful as the Spice Girls reunion???
Coincidentally, 2008 marks the groups 20th anniversary since the release of their big hit, Hangin' Tough.
A reunion tour seems like it might be in the works.
But the question is, does anyone still care?
Will you go see the reunited New Kids on the Block in concert????

Yes, Perez, I DO CARE…now get me all the details

Damn it's been 20 years? God I'm old lol.
I care! I'd definitely be there as long as it wasn't retardedly over priced!
HELL YEAH, I CARE!!! LOVE THEM WHEN I WAS A KID AND STILL JAM THOER GREATEST HITS CD!! HOPE THEY COME TO SOUTH FLORIDA!!
who's that??
ARE YOU SERIOUS???!!!! This is THE BEST NEWS OF THE DAY!!!!
I can't wait to see them on FRIDAY!!!!!
I care! I love them!
I CARE I CARE I CARE!!!
I CAN'T WAIT!
I love NKOTB and always will!! I'm gonna go see them in concert for sure!
oh oh oh! I CARE lolll…i was a fan when i was 3 years old lol. Joey was my fave! CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THEM AGAIN, i was dreaming of this moment for like ever…oh and btw…They are the original Backstreet boys and not n'sync. thank you very much.
HELL YES WE CARE!! ROAD TRIP!!
YOU'LL SEE ME IN THE FRONT ROW, BITCHES!!!
They were my favourite boy band back in the day… I remember buying You Got The Right Stuff on tape and playing it over and over again on my super-huge sony walkman. Their reunion doesn't excite me though, some things are best left to the past
I totally care…..I hope this is true!! I saw them twice in concert. I know, I feel kind of lame getting excited about this, but hey, those were good times : ) I hope they have great success! Looking forward to seeing them. (If it's true!)
I love Joe McIntyre! I love NKOTB! Can't wait till they go on tour!!
Oh heck yeah I care. Thats so cool. I was a huge NKOTB Fan back in the day. Kinda Excited…….
Hell yes I care!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOO there!
Hell Yeah I care!! I wasn't a big fan but I will go see them for sure when they come to Toronto.
On the other hand I couldn't care less about the Spice Girls reunion tour.
Dear God NOOOOOOOOOO!!
Wow! 20 years since Hangin' Tough? I feel old…
So excited about the reunion!
i doubt anyone will care!!!!!!!!!!!!
I care ..I would go and see them
I HAD ONE ALREADY!! 1 DOWN 4 TO GO~ YOU CANT JUST SAY YOU HAD ONE NEW KID YOU GOTTA HAVE EM ALL
PEACH
Hell yeah I'd go see them!!! I wanted to see them back in the day but at the time I was only in 4th grade and did'nt get a chance to go. I was so in love with Donnie, I used to pretend that he was the father of my cabbage patch doll! Lol!!!!!!!!
LOTS of people still care. Plus. they are supposedly just announcing the reunion on the 4th and not actually performing. Rumor is they are performing on May 16th on the Today Show concert series. Keep up with your gos, Perez!
i totally care!! bring them to chicago and do it now!! i am pretty sure i still have a NKOTB digital watch =)
Hell yes I care! I can't wait!

Oh yea baby! It is about time! I think it comes down to this….You can't change the fact that they touched the hearts of many, many girls! I am not as googoo over them as I was when I was 11-16, but I still adore them all. I would go see them in a heart beat, and enjoy them all over again, but this time, with my daughter. You can't help but hold them close to your heart now, when you held them even closer back then. LOVE THEM!! Oh, and Donnie was the one I dreamt about…it is cool to see him all grownup, and doing good for himself.
Great News! Thanks, Perez
They're amazing!
Love them!!!! I'm the first one there!!!
they better fuckin play hanging tough!!!
HOOOOOOOOOOLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA NKOTB!
I hope they make a successful comeback. Wishing them the best.
HELL YEAH!! I AM TOTALLY GOING! ME AND A BIG OLE GROUP OF FRIENDS ARE GONNA GO!
send them to Moncton nb I'll be there
I sure as hell care. NKOTB was my reason for living when I was 8. And I pray to God that they come to Montreal because if they don't I just might shoot myself.
NKOTB ate haters bigger than you guys for breakfast back in 1991. Trust me. This is where it all began. You'd have no Justin Timberlake if it weren't for NKOTB (though I'm sure some of you would happily nix both, lol). Hate all you want, but NKOTB is back and that makes MY world a much better place!
Please, NKOTB was way bigger then the Spice Girls EVER were. This is gonna be huge!!!
Are you sure Donnie is in? I thought he was acting on a show now …If so then all I have to say is….OMG OMG OMG !!!!!!!! LOVE THEM !!!!!!!!! CANT WAIT !!!!!!!
I care!!! Come to Toronto
Heck yeah!!!
Keep keepin´ on..
wow I never realized how much Jordan looks like Linda Dano…
I LOVE YOU !!! STILL!!!
Hey Lisa!
I told you this was happening!
Melissa
DONNIE IS THE HOTTEST. LOVE YOU DONNIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am totally going, fuck yeah!!!!!!
Info like this comes so much faster on sites like www.exclaim.ca
Exclaim.ca is like the perez hilton of GOOD music
Hey! Its New Geezers on the Block….sigh.
Oh oh oh oho
oh oh o o!!
Sorry just had to do that,,blame it on the red bull!!
OMG!!! They were my first concert!!! haha
I agree, Perez. This is very anti-climactic. I signed up on their web site months ago for all the 'newest updates!' and haven't heard crap (only one email that entire time). You don't build momentum that way. The Kids need a new PR person.
Doesn't the guy in the middle kind of remind you of John Mayer in a different time with a different hairstyle? Eerily similar…Very much the same smile.
OMG!!!!!! I'm so excited!!!!!!!!!!!
NKOTB ROCK WITH THEIR SEXY ASS !
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!! even just to bring back old memories! I was a HUGE fan when I was a teen and would love to re live those years through their music…..everytime I hear them I can't help but remember the old times I had with my friends!
WHOO HOOO FUCK YEAH BITCHES!
Yes I would go see the NKOTB for sure. this is a dream come true. anyone who wouldn't is stupid.
Hell yeah baby!!
Damn I must be getting old!? I was in luv with Donny (the bad boy) Hope they have new outfits! LOL!
Hell ya!! I will be there!!
OMG…………….I just wet my pants!
I STILL CARE!!!!!!!!
I EFFIN' LOVE NKOTB!
WhatEV! If you were a child of the late 80's, early 90's you are a LIAR and a half if you say you wouldn't care to see what these cats come up with!! IF nothing else, for pure entertainment value and to reminisce the old days. O O O OOOHO…O O O O!
they have nothing new to offer .
I love NKOTB! I loved them when i was a kid and I still love them now. I am so going to see them, hopefully they'll make their way into the Texas area!!! Hanging Tough…
ya i care,didnt care about the spice girls,they were only big in the u.s for a few yrs and that was ittttttt,they suck , not NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK….
Oh YES!!!
Love them before and still love them now! esp. Jordan Knight!!!!
These fuckers have taken more than enough of my $.. I might check out the set on Youtube.. but I'll be damned if I go see them in concert again.
No drugs, no drinking blah blah blah = BULLSHIT !
Too bad the current pop crop of fulls can't take notes and spend their money on something that won't make them see red.. years down the line.
i'm with jj on that one. i'm so there with a shit-ton of my girlfriends!
you need a selection that says "fuck no"
i'd click that one
o yea! ill be there no matter what it takes!
Oh No, i'm torn between acting my age of a 36 year old professional woman or resorting to the girl who had major crushes on boy bands with their posters on her wall…at least I can drink if I decide to go! Hmmmm….
All fans! Come on by and chat with us about the news!!! We're the only site who broke the news BEFORE Perez!
Seriously??? This is so exciting to hear. I would love to see them again in concert…I LOVE JOEY! LOL
WHY ARE THEY BACK ??????????????? so the new name of the band is
5 OLD MAN ON THE BLOCK ????? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Re: gared – shut the fuck up , you must be a fag too if you post here on Perez, fucking hypocrite closet queen .
I can honestly say that if I miss their concert, I will regret it on my deathbed. There is NO WAY that I would miss it!
I already told hubby that I'm going (he's not happy). Some of the most important memories of my life were made with my friends while we screamed over our New Kids guys!
If you don't wanna go, fine, but I WILL BE THERE!!!!!
Hell yah I care…n who said they are targetting little girls?!! ur d sick one for thinking that!!! NKOTB FOREVER!!
I do care! I can't wait to see these guys sing again. I love them!!!
http://music.msn.com/music/blockwatch ……………….
there are new videos of the guys talking about the reunion.
Re: Laura – I told my hubby that I am going to the concert no matter how much the tickets were. He is not happy about it either but NKOTB brings so much memories. I just can't pass this opportunity. I love them I am sooo excited!
How about a fucking Led Zeppelin reunion?!
ANYONE THAT SAYS THEY DON'T CARE IS A BIG FAT LIAR! EVERYONE KNOWS THAT WE ALL USE TO SING IN OUR HAIR BRUSHS TO THEIR SONG IN THE MIRROR RIGHT BEFORE WE ALL WENT TO SCHOOL! Or watch rainbow bright/smurfs!
ADMIT IT BITCHES!
YOU LOVE THE FIERCESNESS!
I LOVE NKOTB…I had everything of thiers when i was like 5….I was NKOTB crazy…. I would see them in a heart beat
Good Gawd, did people ever really dress like that?! This is insanity. The bowels of hell have erupted and spewed this trash. Music? What's musical about what I'm seeing here. I beg you to blind me, to poke a sharp thing into my ears, disable my reproductive organs - this photo has ruined me as sure as there is devil in the burning abyss. AHHHAHHHHHHHH!!!
Thought you may like this!!!!
I couldn't STAND them when I was a cynical 11yo or whatever, when they were around. I might've gone for the novelty, but I spent all of our concert money on Jonas Brothers shows up and down the Eastern Seaboard (not that I am comparing the bands!! JB RULE!!).
This is gonna be fun. I loved them when i was 13….I am 30 now and am actually a bit excited to see what comes of this.
i couldn't stand them then and i still can't now, but i think it's kinda cool for all the fans who actually did like them!!!!! count me out! ;p
fuck new kids on the block….their reunion tour will never be as successful as the spice girls
I love them!! I will definetly see them!!!! Can't wait!!
I am so there!!! I cannot wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BEST. NEWS. EVER!!!!!!
Wish I lived in NYC, Cant wait to see them in London! I definitely still care!
Re: Dana –
I think you'll find their reunion will dwarf the Spice Girls Reunion for sure… no doubt about it!
