NKOTB haven't missed a beat!

I had the opportunity to see New Kids On The Block perform at the age of 10 over 20 years ago. Being at my very first concert was so surreal. I remember not knowing what to expect but when I came home that night I had a grin from ear to ear. I turned on my IBM Compatible computer and stayed up for hours journaling the entire evening. I remember that I was in the nosebleed seats and they were little ant specks on a stage...I remember the screaming and the crying...I didn't go that far but I sure was intrigued at how a group of 5 boys could make sure an impact on a sea like coliseum full of girls. Again...this was over 20 years ago.

Let's fast forward to today...tonight was the 2nd of two nights I have been invited to relive my childhood memories and at first I had mixed feelings over it but when I got to my seats I couldn't believe how that overwhelming feeling of giddiness and excitement filled my entire body. It was almost as if nostalgia had it's own hidden agenda and it bit me like I was open to it.

What a crooner

The crowd was now older but still just as wild. Who would've known that a bunch of middle aged women could still scream 'bloody murder' like teenagers. I observed in silence with a huge smile on my face but then I couldn't help it...this overwhelming need to join in came over me. It also didn't help that the tickets I was seated in were SO incredible. I had lower bowl seats the first night 4 rows up from the stage and first row from the stage in the lower bowl the second night. I LOVED where my seats were...it would've been too hard for this 5 feet tall women to see anything had I been on the floor.

I watched these men gyrate and move like they were still in their teens. They truly didn't miss a beat. They were so innovative with their song and dance, I had to pee so badly but I didn't want to miss anything. My conclusion to my concerts was nothing but positive. Even the men sitting around me had to agree..."I'm only here for my girlfriend/wife but they put on a good show". I have enclosed a couple pictures and videos for your viewing pleasure. Please let me know what you think of NKOTB. I'd love to hear from you.

NKOTB really know how to work a crowd
