NKOTB Reunion!

That's New Kids on the Block to the layman. I'm trying not to get sucked into the wave of nostalgia that is hitting me with this latest reunion tour but it's hard not to. Right now I'm supposed to be writing 3 papers that are all due next week but instead I'm watching old NKOTB videos on youtube :(.

Let's take a look at the inventory of NKOTB stuff I collected in the late 80's to early 90's:

1. Pillowcases and sheets
2. Oversized pillow with a big group shot of the boys
3. Neon NKOTB slippers
4. A Donny Wahlberg figurine
5. NKOTB books, one for each member
6. Assorted buttons
7. NKOTB bubblegum
8. Every tape they released (including the Xmas special)
9. T-shirts
10. Glow sticks from their Toronto concert that I went to [I still have the glowsticks...]
11. NKOTB jammies
12. NKOTB poster [natch]

I think that's it but there could be more. My favourite member was Jonathon Knight who was the shy one. He's also a Sagittarius. But now I'm getting turned on to Joey McIntyre who is finally attractive. Poor Danny...still the least attractive one, but he does look better than he did circa 1992.

If you need to refresh your memory of their former glory, please watch the video for Cover Girl. I'll be honest, it's so cheesy it's difficult to watch, especially when the bassist comes in to do his solo. Nevertheless, if I saw them sing Tonight again, I'd swoon.
