Confessions...

Are you ready?



I love.....


the....


NKOTB!!!!!!!

I know, I know, seriously, they are so 1986. But, they are back. I broke my TV rule this morning and left the TODAY show on while Olivia and I were doing our routine so I would NOT miss their new debut! I am such a dork. Seriously, I know I am. But I can't help it. Little Joey McIntire, well, he just brings me back. Sigh....

So, their performance was so-so. They started with a montage of their old songs, songs which I loved, but they just did okay. Their man voices just can't get as high as their little boy voices once did. They need to face that fact now. Then they sang their new single "summertime"--that sure didn't do anything for me. Not my type of music at all. They finished their performance with "Tonight", probably my all-time favorite NKOTB song. And it was fabulous, bringing a tear to my eye (That's the sad truth...ah, the memories).

Their comeback is a little hokey; I'm the first to admit that. But if they promise to sing all their oldies, but goodies in a concert, Will I be there? You betcha!

La la la la tonight....see the girls with the curls in their hair.... (I think they're singing about me...)

I met Joey McIntire in a bar in Omaha a few years ago. No one was swooning over him and he was obviously upset about this. EVERYONE SHOULD LOVE ME!

Yes, yes, they should...my friend and I saw him at the MOA when we were in high school and he was making his comeback...he was so obviously drunk it was pathetic...cute none the less though! ;0

I'm still jealous of your MOA story. I would have donated one of my kidneys to the NKOTB if I had the opportunity to do so in junior high. I need to go on YouTube and see if I can find their Today show appearance.

Aye, I always tried so hard to like them, and I did like a couple of their songs, but only when I was with you did I wear a (borrowed from you) NKOTB pin on my pink striped billed hat...
I'm not surprised you broke your rule this morning, I'm not surprised you'd totally go to a concert... But I have to admit, I won't be trying to like them anymore... :)
