Ok, Los Angeles is officially a crazy place! I just went through my first earthquake. Makes me want to get out on tour all the more. Seems really strange to me that ten minutes after it ended life continued as normal for these people. I think ill park my car on the street from now on and not in the underground garage. I never get to rehearsal on time but believe me I couldn’t wait to leave my apartment this morning.

Tuesday morning here in LA. Heading off to rehearsal in a few minutes. Just wanted to say a quick thank you to everyone that was able to attend our event this past weekend in LA. It was a great pleasure to meet so many people from all around the country and hear your questions. It was also a pleasure to see your reactions to our new music! The new album is something we are really proud of and will be our honor to share it with the world.
It has been the best of times in rehearsal with the guys everyday. I wish you all could be flies on the wall. I forgot what a bunch of comedians they are. I couldn’t have a better bunch of guys to be working with! The album cover artwork will be arriving today at the studio. Cant wait to see the final product!!!! See you all real soon! September 18th is approaching fast!

All the best,

Jonathan

Whats Good All??

Hope all is well.

Gotta say….

Our album is coming out great!!!

(At least in my humble opinion…….)

On a side note…

While I enjoy any hype for our album….

And while I also (sometimes) enjoy the audacity of people writing blatantly fabricated “news” articles…

We are NOT recording with Michael Jackson and/or Madonna.

We never claimed to be either.

Good fun reading about though!

Sorry to let ya down…. Or not.

Anyway….

Can’t wait til you all hear who we did do some collabo’s with!!!!

Ha!

GET READY….. WE’RE COMING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Much Love-

Donnie W

PS- WE ARE COMING!  YA HEARD ME?

Yo!

A little somethin’ somethin’ from rehearsals. Things are slowly
speeding up ( I think that’s an oxymoron).
Excited about meeting the fans who are flying in to see a sneak peek
rehearsal. We think it’ll be good for us. Make us stay on point :)
I think we are gonna have a lot of laughs!!
I’m sure the rest of the guys will fill you in on all the shananigans.
Gotta get back to practice!

Hi everyone,
We are back from Germany and it was amazing. Through out this experience I never know what to expect. The German fans are more than ready for THE BLOCK just like everyone here and in Canada. The support was unbelievable and it was awesome. Every where we went people where there to support us. We are looking forward to the European tour next year.
I want to rundown our week for you so maybe you will get an idea of what it was like.
We arrived Monday July 7th to Germany. We took the day to recuperate from jet lag, see the movie set, and have a fitting for our crazy medieval outfits.
Tuesday we filmed, as ourselves in medieval times, with the amazing German director/actor Til Schweiger. It was a fun day aside from the black soot we all inhaled during the filming. After we finished we where blowing out black boogers. There where flames being blown thru the air through out our performance. It was a pleasure working with Til and we look forward to the release of the movie in December.
Wednesday was the big international press conference. It was amazing to see over 200 European journalists in the room. I always feel like we are just those 5 guys from Boston and how did we end up here. It was a very humbling experience. The rest of the day was spent doing tons of European press and we didn’t finish until nighttime.
Thursday and Friday NKOTB was split into 2 groups so we could cover more ground. We went to Frankfurt, Munich, Cologne, Hamburg, Kiel, Hannover, Magdeburg and then all got back together in Berlin. We visited radio stations, TV stations, did print interviews and Internet outlets. It was great and felt really good to be so productive.
I need to personally thank Sven Kilthau-Lander, Jurgen Grebner, and the whole Universal Records staff for the amazing job they did in Germany. We are looking forward to all our future endeavors in Europe.
We are back in L.A. for tour rehearsals. September 18th is coming soon and we are so excited.

Love Danny

“Alle funf!!!!”
Means “all 5″ in German.
That’s all I can say in German so far.
We had a blast… a lot of work but having our fans show up
everywhere we go made it a lot easier.

The schnitzel was on point. And we couldn’t believe how tall
everyone was- men and women. Damn! I felt like Ryan Seacrest over there.

So its back to rehearsal and putting together the greatest show on earth
by the “5 hardest working kids in show business”.

Let’s get this!

xoxo
