Flash back, NKOTB back together
So, the first (and only) concert that I stood in line for ever was New Kids on the Block. I begged and pleaded until my dad, who was less than willing, stood in line for 4 hours (for terrible seats might I add). I was a total nerd and had the buttons (yes, those HUGE buttons), the posters, the ugly orange t-shirts, and I professed my love for Joey in a fan letter. Yes, I included my sixth grade picture with my phone number in hopes that he would fall in love with my picture and call.
Although I am older, wiser, and my tastes have changed (ever so slightly), I am somewhat giddy about the news that NKOTB are getting back together. I am not sure I would go to their concert, but it sure brings back fond memories of slumber parties and those butterflies every time I opened Teen Beat. Dreamy. And there is a blackmail tape floating around in my family where I bust a move to Hangin’ Tough.
Here is a little trip down memory lane. I may have to go pull out my old tapes.

I know! Cheesy as they may have been, I was hooked. Brings back memories.
