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 Joe…not sure if that’s an oxymoron…but you could try “gradually accelerating maybe? Sorry…I’m a geek. Anyway, glad to hear you are working hard. Can’t wait to see you in San Jose! (You won’t see me though… I’ll be way at the top!)

Glad you are having fun and things are getting done. Am bummed myself tried to push to get more hours with my kiddos but the cps (child protection services) workers is making me wait longer just because they don’t have enough staffing. Makes me sad and mad. Gotta listen to some of your guys songs now to brighten up my day! Keep us updated on your progress. Its a joy to read what your all doing. Take care and be blessed and remember i’m praying for ya

Hi Joey,
The photo - what a great sneak peek! Though not as great as flying in to see a rehearsal, obviously
The Mullets of Britain are growing more and more excited by the day about the prospect of you coming over here! It’s all we talk about
You should hear us…we want a sneak peek of our own!! We know how jam-packed your schedules are, but we also know we’re scheduled in there somewhere, and we can’t wait for our ‘facetime’ 
As for me, after 19 years of anticipation - I am soooo ready!!
Love you my huckleberry friend.

Love to know that you are all enjoying yourselves. We can’t wait to see you!
I’ll see y’all in October in Dallas!
Until then,
Much Luv!

Awwww Joe, love these little blogs! Thanks for keeping us posted it means so much to us. You sure do know how to brighten a girl’s day!
I really wish I could be there for the rehearsal. I guess I will just have to be patient and wait till October. Then the fun will begin for me, 3 concerts to look forward to..so far
At the rate I am going I may just add a few more.
Well, keep practicing and I will be cheering you guys on from Texas!!

Joey Mac — Well well, you certainly peaked my curiousity with those hats, mister. Although I’m not one of the lucky radio contest winners, I will definitely be seeing you on the road and at a couple appearances. Cannot wait until the Block is back on stage! It’s been too long, my friend. 1994 in Kansas City to be exact! Ha ha. Good luck practicing and I hope Saturday goes really well for you. I am excited to see pictures from the fans who are there, etc. Love ya lots! Hang in there — keep working hard. ~Katie from Minnesota

Joe!
Thanks for checking in! It’s always a treat to hear from you– I wish I was going to be there this weekend for the CD release party… I guess I’ll have to be patient a little longer! Sure would like to know when the new single is going to be dropping.
Take care of yourself and I will see you in a couple weeks in Minnesota at the Mall of America! (Thanks for that BTW!)
Much Love-

Hey Joey Joe,
What’s happening my TRUE LOVE of 1989?? Not a DAMN thing here. Just thought I’d respond to this message that’s all. I’m glad everything is well with you and the boys. Jon, Donnie, Jordan, Danny. I’m glad that rehearsal is going just fine with you all too. I love the photo as well. Esp the HATS on Mic. LOL! It’s already the end of JULY. HELLO August. Which means I’ll still have 3 months left until I see you guys. For October 2nd! I can’t wait to get the DVD of you guys from 1999. The Greatest Hits. So I can see it until the time pasts for me to see you all in concert. I’ll have the DVD before the CD goes out. Than I’ll have that as well. Which means I’ll have both of them soon. Anyways, I wanted to let you know I LOVE YOU and the Guys so so much and can’t wait for October 2nd to get here.
Hugs and Kisses (Right Back At Ya Babe)
You’re Biggest Fan Since 1989

Thanks for sharing it all with us in such a different way than last time around. I’m lovin’ it!
Love ya!

L.A. people are finally getting that chance to win (in the way of a raffle)invites. Hope to see you guys!! I know this is a once in a lifetime opportunity for all who get to experience it! Even if i don’t get the “invite” I might still be around ;-).
Crossing my fingers to get to see Donnie (and the other guys too…lol) in a few days!!

Thank you very much for the update, Joey!
It’s great to hear about the rehearal. I hope you guys have a great time this Saturday. (I wish I could have a chance to enter that contest… should I move into the United States? lol)
July 23rd, 2008 at 5:25 pm
Joe, are you doing your stretches???? Ha! I am so looking forward to the show! I’m sure rehearsals are stressful, but it will be worth it! I know from the fans point of view it will be!
Okay, so in a little over a week, I’m having a totally awesome 30th bday party, and “Happy Birthday” will be played @ midnight to bring in the new decade! My cake will have a Charlotte countdown on it…have I gone a bit NKOTB mad, yes, I have! I may need therapy, but I will blame it all on you and the other fabulous four men from the block!!!!
You make me laugh and thank you for posting a blog! Also, I can’t wait to hear about all the shaninigans!!!!! Too. Much. Fun!
Much love,

I’m flying in! I can’t imagine you’re half as excited as I am!
The prize didn’t say anything about actually meeting you guys, but you wouldn’t let us come all that way and then not say hi, right? And maybe give us some hugs?
Can’t wait to hear the whole album on Saturday!!!!
See you very soon.
Katie

Hey Joey glad to hear things are going well for you guys. Wish I could make it for the sneak peek (I gotta work to pay for all the ticket to the shows I am buying). I am sure we are going to hear all about it when NKOTB.com message boards come back!
Take care Joey!

Right, so love the hats! Where can I get one?? haha It would be even better signed by you guys….but hey, beggars can’t be choosers. (Where on earth did that saying come from anyway?? haha) Thanks for keeping us informed-you big tease….but ya know we love it, so keep it up! =)
You guys take care, love y’all bunches!

Can’t wait to see what you guys have in store for us for the tour. At any rate, even if you guys weren’t dancing and just standing there with mikes in your hands all the women will still be screaming fanatics! Can’t wait!
July 23rd, 2008 at 6:45 pm
Okay now, you can’t show us a picture like that without telling us which hat belongs to whom! Don’t you know as your biggest fans we want to know every detail? If I had to guess, I’d say from closest to farthest, it’s Joe, Jonathan, Donnie, Jordan and Danny. Am I right?
July 23rd, 2008 at 6:55 pm
i dont understand why my comments never get posted when i put them up !
July 23rd, 2008 at 7:01 pm
Thanks Joe!!! Hope you all are having a BLAST.Please don’t forget about Cincinnati. Thanks Lisa
July 23rd, 2008 at 7:11 pm
Very cool picture!! Can’t wait to see more!
July 23rd, 2008 at 7:12 pm
THANK YOU FOR THAT PICTURE!!!!
:)
IT’s AWESOME HOW YOU ARE THINKING OF US AND KEEPING US ABREAST OF YOUR “SHANANIGANS!!”
It is not as treacherous being an NKOTB fan today as it was 20 years ago—always ondering what you all were up to, what you were doing at the exact moment I thought of you all! Although, my life keeps me busy, I still do think of you and when I do I come to NKOTB.COM and read your latest blogs!!
THANKS AGAIN! LOVE ROMA
July 23rd, 2008 at 7:19 pm
Hey sweetie! Women do love men who have a great work ethic so get back to rehearsal! Can’t wait to see all your hard work in Calgary.
Ummmmm, so yeah….2 girls, one cup. Poor Jon! You guys are totally tainting him! Wouldn’t that be funny if you actually saw one of those girls in the crowds at one of your concerts?! Har, har!

July 23rd, 2008 at 7:23 pm
I can’t wait to see you guys on tour! Lucky for me I get to meet you twice! I love the look of the hats on the microphones! It makes me wonder where these hats come in at? “I’ll be loving you forever” perhaps!
BTW, thank you for keeping your fans informed. This has definitely been an amazing journey as a New Kids fan! I greatly appreciate you guys giving us the love in return! Have a great rest of the week!
July 23rd, 2008 at 7:24 pm
Thanks for checking in Joe! Only 95 more days until you are in NYC and I can not wait! How about another rehearsal video to tide us over?!!

July 23rd, 2008 at 7:38 pm
JOE!
Yes, things slowly speeding up is an oxymoron. Glad to get a brief peak into rehearsals since I am not one of the fortunate fans getting to have an in person peak on Saturday.
Those who will be there take lots of great mental notes for the rest of us!
Can’t wait until October!
Much love,
Hillary
July 23rd, 2008 at 7:41 pm
OK so if I would have had access to email when you guys were my heartbeat I would have typed until my fingers bled, losing sleep waiting for you guys to respond to me. I Had to be one of the last fans still wearing pins and Hangin in there for a comeback and now you have it. I must say Donnie you still look hot. I had a major thing for you and every concert I had nosebleed seats and was happy with it just to see you. Ran to your tour bus b
Before concert was over hoping to see you and I saw your brother, but no you. I hope I get a chance to hear you guys on the radio, still havent, wouldnt it be awesome to have a major hit after all the negative a@#holes who knocked you for so long! Ill have the last laugh with you.
July 23rd, 2008 at 7:41 pm
It is so great being able to follow up with you all! I’m ready for the concert! I’m sure that all the effort being put into the show will make it memorable for all of us blockheads! Can’t wait to see everyone in Cleveland Ohio Oct. 3 (since your not as of yet coming to Columbus Ohio, hint hint, lol.). I love it when you guys check in with teeny tidbits of info to get us through til the concerts! Keep up the great work guys! You’re all still in my heart, thoughts, and prayers! Amy in Columbus

Ok so I dont know if this is a good think or a bad thing, but its getting to the point that I cannot start my day until I come to this website to check if one of you has left another blog. I love these blogs, you guys keeping us updated on how things are going. I open my cupborad everyday and I look at my New Kids tickets and I have to pinch myself because its really happening. I get to go see a New Kids on the Block Concert. I feel 14 all over again. Thank you guys for getting back together and making one of my dreams come true…Lots of Love

Joe-
Thanks so much for taking the time to check in with the fans. I check the website, multiple times a day I’m afraid to admit, to see if any of you have left a message. Still waiting for Jordan to get back on here and post anything!!!! I’d be satisfied if he’d just post is lunch order for Pete’s sake!
Hope rehearsals are going well. I know you guys will put on an amazing show. Can’t wait to see you in October. The anticipation is all but killing me, if my husband doesn’t first.
All my love,

July 23rd, 2008 at 8:29 pm

I’m glad the rehearsals is doing well… I want to point out that you are my favorite New Kid.. I remember it was August 5th,1990. I was only 11 years old.. I went to your concert. I never had so much fun in my entire life although the concert was outside and it was pouring, I didn’t have a care in the world. That night was the most amazing night of my life and I can say I remember everything… Now that I’m 29 years old, and I’m still a big fan I think about the good old days.. I can’t count how many times I’ve listened to all of the albums that you guys recorded it was great. My parents at the time would tell me to turn down the music cause it was loud.. LOL.. When I heard that you guys were stopping to Montreal and Toronto to promote the new album, I couldn’t resist and I got 2 tickets to the Sept 21st show in Toronto. We are making a weekend vacation.. My friend April and I are so excited…
See you in Toronto!!!!
Cheers!!! Shawna (Ottawa, Ontario, Canada)

OK I am so bummed. I wrote a post telling you guys where I would be the weekend before November 10 concert in St. Louis, and that I planned to attend the concert as a 5VIP. Due to a family tragedy, I had to use my saved up ticket money to help my sister and her 2 sons, when their dad walked out on them. I know I did the right thing but it was kind of disappointing. ANYWAY NKOTB, the Saturday and Sunday before the show I will be staying at the Drury Inn by the America’s Center and at the America’s Center for my daughters cheer competition. I will be on the lookout for you guys, especially now I can’t go. Make sure to post lots of pics so I know what I missed.
July 24th, 2008 at 1:59 am
Joe! So happy to hear from you! I love getting updates on what’s up with you all. I know it’s going to be a great show and can’t wait till October to see you guys!!! I went rummaging through the attic and got out all my old pics from mags in the 90s and read some old articles and gotta tell you, I had to laugh… brought back some good memories, and of course had to giggle at some of the styles. I still remember how fantastic your shows were then, I’m so excited to see what’s to come!!!
Love,
Trish

HEY JOE! IT’S GREAT TO HEAR FROM YOU AGAIN, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU GUYS ARE SO BUSY WITH THE REHEARSALS. IT IS SOOOOOO APPRECIATED THATR YOU ARE ALL KEEPING US VERY INVOLVED IN THE PROCEEDINGS FOR THE TOUR. (JUST LIKE THE TEAM WE ARE), NKOTB AND THE FANS TOGETHER HA HA!. THATS WHAT IT FEELS LIKE THIS TIME ROUND!!!!! I CANT WAIT FOR THE TIME WHEN THOSE MICROPHONES ARE IN FRONT OF ME … IN SCOTLAND! THE EXCITMENT MUST BE BUILDING UP SO FAST IN AMERICA AND CANADA RIGHT NOW. I WISH I COULD BE THERE TO TAKE IT ALL IN BUT ITS NOT TO BE. I WISH YOU ALL THE BEST OF LUCK FOR THE REHEARSALS AND THE SHOWS AHEAD AND I KNOW YOU WILL ALL BE VERY POLISHED BY SHOWTIME! HOPE ITS NOT GOING TOO FAST THAT YOU DONT GET SOME DOWN TIME!

July 24th, 2008 at 3:33 am
BTW, slowly speeding up is an oxymoron, and I’m using that as an example in my public speaking class when I introduce oxymorons (can you hear it? “For example, class, when Joey Mac talked about rehearsals and slowly speeding up…perfect lesson:)
Charlotte/NKOTB, here I come!!!!! My friends say I’m the biggest New Kids fan in the world…I think it may be true:)
Love,

This reunion is getting better and better. I realized last night that it is exactly 3 months from today when I will finally get my wish answered and be able to actually meet you guys at a concert. Your hard work and dedication to this will certainly pay off, I have faith in all 5 you. I only wish you would come to Chicago and do a promo, how about Oprah again? Give my best to the rest of the gang.

I do hope you’re making videos to purchase *hint* *hint*
Great picture - it’s like Pavlov’s dog - you show it, we salvate!
You know exaaaaactly what you’re doing to us, don’t you?

Joe…thanks so much for the teaser! I’m so excited to see you guys in October that I can’t hardly stand it! I’m driving everyone nuts!!! I’m a little sad that I couldn’t win tickets for the sneak peak. I listened and called in to our local radion station every day but still didn’t win…it would have been a FABULOUS birthday present too!
Have a great time and I look forward to hearing about it! Thanks again for keeping us up to date. It makes this trip seem very personal….it’s so much fun!!!
Love to all of you,
Dawn
July 24th, 2008 at 9:38 am
Awww Joe! You don’t know how much these blogs mean to us! It’s so different this time around because of this type of correspondence. I love it! Anyway, I hope to see you this weekend. I live very close to LA and am going to have my eyes open looking for you guys
Hope the cd preview and rehearsals go well. Wish I could be inside watching too. I guess only so many peopel could win those contests though. Not for lack of trying! 
Anyway, even if I don’t see you guys this weekend, am looking forward to fall. Will be at 2 shows for sure, perhaps a 3rd! Can’t let opportunities pass me by this time around.
XOXOXOX

Hey Joe!
Glad to hear you’re having a good time rehearsing. Wish I was one of the lucky ones to see you in LA this weekend. But, alas, I didn’t win any of the million contests I entered. I’m still keeping my fingers crossed that ya’ll will do something special in the South - preferably Texas. If not, I guess I’ll wait patiently until October to see you guys.
Much Love,

July 24th, 2008 at 11:28 am
Aww… I totally got cheated out of that private concert! Some other girl is claiming to be your biggest fan here in Memphis, but it’s not true. And, I was a close 2nd… shouldn’t I have gotten something for that??? Heartbreaking is all I can say. Simply heartbreaking.
July 24th, 2008 at 11:54 am
Nice hats.
If you’re stepping up your game for the girls flying in you’re going to have to pull something out of the bag for us overseas fans coming to your shows in the States
We’ll be watching ;D ;D

Hey Joe,
Glad to hear from you. My friend and I tried really hard to win a trip to LA to watch you guys rehearse but to no avail a lady who isn’t really a fan won in our area. Her daughter is a big fan though and she won it for her (that part was sweet). We wanted to win so bad that we were even willing to fly for the first time in our lives. Oh well it must not be our time to get face time with you guys. Enjoy the fans that did win and we will see you in October at the Atlanta show. Stay safe and God bless!
Love,

I am so hyped to listen to the new cd! I was going to fly out from Cincinnati to be at the grand opening of the new Best Buy where you guys will be at August 8th but it had said that you can’t take pics with you all. I was bummed about that. Not to be corny but on my Things I want to do before I die list is to meet you guys. Me and my friend Kim (may she R.I.P.) always wanted to do that. She did not get that chance so I am trying to do that for the both of us. But dane it I want the picture. I want it so I can put it buy her grave to show her that I accomplished one of our dreams. But I will be at the concert in chicago on Oct. 4th so maybe I can try and make things happen then. But keep up the good work and I am so looking forward to the concert! It’s funny cause I have a game called Sing Star rocks the 90’s. Oh yea Step by Step is on there and me and the girls sing it up. Just thought I would share that. Peace Out!
July 24th, 2008 at 9:46 pm

Thank you for the updates. I am so exited about all of this. I’ve been waiting to see you again since December ‘91 when I last saw you in Birmingham, UK.
I saw the Summertime Video on a UK music channel today(first time Ive seen it on a UK channel) and after running around like a lunatic dancing, I nearly fainted!
Me and the rest of the UK Mullets are soooooo ready for this.
Love you all. Emma xxxxx

Soooo exciting! Keep slowing speeding things up! You’re so darn cute…I just wanna hug ya! Thanks so much for the picture sneak peak! 
Take Care! 
July 25th, 2008 at 11:03 pm
How do these fans get to fly in for a special rehearsal thingamajig? (On a side note, apparently my Firefox spell checker acknowledges that thingamajig is actually a word! Who knew?)
Anywhoooo … was this some contest that fans could enter? If so, I guess I’m out of the loop because I heard nothing of it.
Either way, I’m jealous.
Keep up the hard work, it’s all going to pay off. See you in September.
Peace.

How did those lucky fans get chosen to see the rehearsal? Oh they are so lucky! I can’t believe the tour is almost going to begin! I’m so excited to see you guys in Houston and San Antonio. I absolutely adore you guys, going to your concert will be one of the happiest moments of my life!

Thanks for the update on your rehearsals. I cannot wait to see you in Atlantic City for the sold out concert! I wasn’t able to see you in concert when I was a teenager, so I cannot wait for the concert. Keep working hard… looking forward to seeing the results!
July 26th, 2008 at 9:11 pm
Joe,
Thanks for all the updates…it’s great to watch you all on this journey! I’ve been a fan since I was 15 and I am having a blast watching and listening to you, all these years later! It’s bringing back some great memories. Thanks for coming back and most importantly, doing it on your own terms. We all love and respect you so much for it.
I’ve had the good fortune to meet you twice (in Albany, NY) when you were doing your solo-thing, and you were extremely friendly and funny and it was a pleasure to have a few moments to talk with you. Hope I get the chance again this time around.
Best of luck with the upcoming tour….hope you’ll make a stop in our city before too long!

Wow…I would love to be the fan getting a sneak peek at rehearsals. I am counting down the days until I meet you in Philadelphia. It’s going to be awesome! Kisses, Laura

Hi there,
We’ve never stopped loving you guys…and you hehe. My parent’s religious views kept us from being able to celebrate holidays, birthdays, or do the things that most little girls do. My sister wanted to go to one of your concerts sooo badly. She cried and begged, but my parents wouldn’t let us go. Now we finally get the chance to see you when you come to Toronto!!!!
I felt that I just had to say something. There is always a story, isn’t there? lol My sisters and I have always loved you guys. I was just a little girl (about five) when we started to listen to you, but my sisters are older than me. We used to go to the park together, swing on the swings, and take turns listening to your tapes on a walkman. My sister Michelle still giggles like a little girl when she hears your voice, and she’s twenty eight now
Michelle would want me to tell you that you still look as sexy as ever. She has kept every tape, cd, picture, and whatever else we managed to get our hands on over the years. She’d prob want me to thank you for coming back with the boyz and giving us the chance to make our childhood dream come true…I’m soo excited!!!!
You have (and always have had) our love and support!!!
Can’t wait to see you!!

Just wanted to say Thank you. I was one of the lucky fans that got to fly out to L.A. to see your sneak peck rehearsal. Can’t wait to see you guys again in Colorado. The only thing was I would of liked your audagraph on the CD I took It just didn’t happen there was just to many people out there. Maybe I will get luck again and win some back stage passes to see you guys again I LOVE the NKOTB. Your fan forever Sophia

It was great meeting you guys Saturday in LA at the “Sneak Rehersal”! It was way more people than we expected and security were very rude and pushy, but we tried not let them bother us and I must say, you guys were so very sweet. Thanks for the picture with us! My picture was good except for Donnie was too busy looking at me to smile for the camera. Hope you enjoyed our scrap books and thanks for signing them! It seemed like you all got a good laugh with one of Joey’s pictures that Ali had in her books, he he he….Hope to see you on tour soon in Louisiana! Also, thanks for the hugs Jordan and Joey…Muah!

oh my god is so great to have news from you, i can´t believe it is true, i am from Ecuador, me and my sisters were huge fans of you, when i was a little girl i have the dream that sometime you´ll visit my country but i guess it was impossible,but now we are older we can have that dream come true, me and my sisters are travelling to fort laudardale for your concert, you dont have idea how difficult was to get the tickets from here but we got it, so, see you on November 1, i love you guys, thank you for give us the opportunity to see you live. We really really adore you… i think i am going to cry a river in your concert but is ok i am going to survive.. or maybe not!! anyway it doesn´t matter I really love you guys!!
Kisses from Ecuador, Kari
July 28th, 2008 at 7:35 pm
Great to hear that you are working hard. Can’t wait to see if you can still “move” it like you all used to. It would be real sweet if you guys could make an appearance in the “VILLE” KY. Got lots of love for all of you here. See you in October in Chicago!!!
It would be nice to hear from the other guy….especially Jordan!!!

You guys have always been my fave band, I’m so excited to see you guys I can’t believe in a month and a half. woohoo.

I love logging in and ready all your blogs, I couldnt believe how excited I was when I heard that NKOTB were reforming! The slightly disappointed to hear that no dates at present have been released for the UK! Fingers crossed I wont have to wait too long! This time however I wont have to defy my Dad…. he was adament when I was 16 that I wasnt going to travel to Wembley to see you… so I sneakily brought a ticket and told my friends mum (who took us) a little white lie; that I was allowed to go!! Best night of my life and was worth being grounded for two weeks!! I saw you four times in total! Have fond memories and can’t wait to see you all live again! My husband wonders what he has got himself into, I have turned into a 16 year old fanatic again!

Hey Joey…I felt bad that you had fewer blog comments then Donnie so I though I would give you one more. I have been listening to One Too Many in my CD player in my car. You are one crazy guy! I can’t wait to meet you (again) in September. BTW Rockergirl told me not to post…because I would “bump you up” I just felt bad…that is just me.
Have a good night, Joey Joe!

Hot Joey…We are so happy that all of you are back together and are working so hard for all of us. NKOTB is the GREATEST! We have never been to any of your concerts
. I am disabled and the single parent of my two disabled adult children. We buy as many cds and dvds as we can of you guys and of Mark. We love all of you.
Can you tell us which of you guys have a myspace page and give us the addresses? I hate being mislead by phonies!

Growing up listening to you all and then you back together makes me feel young again-even though i’m 29. You’ve always been my fav New Kid, always will be. I’ve got all your solo stuff, so you have a true fan in me. I love it that you guys are keeping us fan up to date. Make sure I see you out and about in Charlotte, NC on Oct. 30! I’ll be looking!
