New Kids on the Block to Reunite

They may be pushing 40, but the New Kids are returning to the block. The Boston boy band New Kids on the Block, which sold 70 million albums in the 1980s and early 1990s, has reunited and plans to release a new album and go on tour. The reunion comes 20 years after the release of the group's multi-platinum album, "Hanging Tough."

Let the heckling commence...

I have a theory that NKOTB is basically just a crappy 1990s version of Duran Duran. Not musically, of course, but in terms of their "boy band" appeal and the "characters" of each of the five members.

My best friend was a huge fan of the New Kids when we were pre-teens and she still likes them, she's elated that they're getting back together. I just hope she doesn't plan on dragging me to a show. -.-

There are just no words to convey the headache this causes. I feel the urge to hit them with something though.
