Just like it was 1988 all over again.


You scream, I scream, we all scream for New Kids On The Block. Yes there was 3 ten year old girls that went to the New Kids On The Block concert, it was end of summer 1988.


Fast forward 20 years (oh god, did I just say, 20 YEARS! Ack!) and here we are again. Feisty, MnM and Mud (girl scout story) all over again. We also brought along Muds friend, LZ, who very nicely put up with us and our crazy antics all night. (thank you.)

We arrived, MnM couldn't wait to get to the nearest beer stand, because unlike Mud and I, she no longer loves herself some good pop music. Ever since the grunge came and took her away. (she was just there for the memories and the beer) she needed to numb herself through the opening acts that she had little or no idea of who they were.




Props to both the opening acts, I loved them. Took me a minute to remember the first guy, you might not know him by name, Colby O' Donis, but his song "What You Got" is featuring Akon, and is on the top 40 hip hop and pop charts. AWESOME!


Then the ever so beautiful and talented Natasha Beddingfield came out! I loved it! I am a fan, so on top of the bestest friends, the memories, the NKOTB I also got two awesome opening acts too!






I will just post all the pictures here. And comment below each... some pictures deserve there own posts, and will be saved for just that. (yes my dears, stop stalking me for the pictures, it is 12:53 am and I am editing, cropping, and we all know red eye removing from every one of my shots) Enjoy...





The opening of there show, they come up from the top stage floor... it was deafing in there.
A.MAZ.ING.

Jon and brother Jordan Knight, on the side stage by us!



Donnie and Jordan on side stage, with some back up dancersJoe did a solo song, he has his own album out too.


Love it!!


Not that Jordan didn't have my attention with his solo (also an album out) but when he did it with his shirt open and the wind blowing it...my life is complete...


This is Mud's freebee, I will explain in another post, all hail to Donnie.


Half way through the show they appear on this mini round stage in the middle of the floor audience. Just big enough for them, and a piano. One of my favorite moments, they did Tonight, Tonight out there.




And right before they left they came over and said good bye to me. (and some of the other people around me... I guess...)


Final bow, after they finished off the show, with the first encore being Step by Step, and then back out for the ever so wonderful Hangin' Tough. I loved every memory making moment. It was SO fun, and the show was amazing.

I will be doing a separate post on all of our asinine pictures of ourselves.

You got some nice pics. Including Jordan and his nakedness.

I think I know the freebie thing. Nice....

Its is always cool to have openers you know and like. I'm sure Natasha was good.

Wow thanks for the play by play.

So in 20 years when your 50 are you guys going again.
