All you people, can't you see, can't you see… NKOTBSB!!!

Last night, the biggest explosion of boy band fandom took off in Chicago as the New Kids On The Block and the Backstreet Boys kicked off their summer tour. (We wonder if they could hear the screaming down at the Chicago Theatre!)

Those who were lucky enough to attend were also kind enough to share some SPOILERS from the show that will leave fans still waiting for the boys to hit their town heaving with joy.

First, we'll tell you that the stage, which the fellas have dubbed "the penis stage" is set up to give everyone a perfect view. However, from what we're hearing, the Backstreet Boys seem to base camp at the "head", while the NKOTB mostly perform on the "shaft." LOLZ.

Then, during "Tonight" and "Shape Of My Heart," the boys take to the AUDIENCE and perform amongst their adoring fans. Oh, and if you're on the floor, don't think you are getting all the love. We hear most of the guys traveled up to the higher levels to say hello their fans! Such gentlemen!

And now, for the moment you've all been waiting for, we present to you… THE SETLIST!

Just in case you want to be surprised, we'll put it after the jump, but if you ask us, each band picked EXACTLY the right songs to sing. Little of the old, little of the new - the fans are going to lose their shiz!!!

After you read the setlist, check out the gallery (below) to see some hot shots of the boys on tour!

Congratulations!

Joey McIntyre and his wife Barret McIntyre are expecting a new kid on the block soon.

The singer announced his wife is pregnant with a baby girl to fans on the NKOTB cruise.

This will be the first daughter for the McIntyres, who already have two sons named Griffin and Rhys.

We hope everything goes well for the family during the pregnancy!

The fab five are ready to set sail on their third annual cruise!

NKOTB posed for some pics before departing Miami and hitting the high seas on Thursday.

Joey, Jordan, Donnie, Jonathan and Danny will be mingling with some of their most devoted fans while relaxing and having fun on the Carnival Destiny cruise ship.

The cruise will last five days in the Bahamas before heading back to Miami on Monday.

Looking good, gentlemen! We're sure you're going to make some ladies VERY, VERY happy.

Joey McIntyre from New Kids On The Block, now NKOTBSB, is taking a break from the group to film a guest-spot on the USA Network series, Psych. He's been cast as a "buff new officer" who shows up with a "mysterious secret."

Well, buff he most certainly is! HA!

Congratz, Joey! Hopefully this will be a lot of fun for you!
