And if I don't like it, 2012 is only 4 years away! What makes me laugh is some of the responses about the New Kids' political views.

I am also happy that Obama won the election. I was raised a Democrat in the South which is the equivalent of having a third eye... I am absolutely crazy about you! My friends and I came to the ATL show and a Coca-Cola representative there gave me tickets to the Charlotte concert. We did not hesitate to drive the extra 3 hours. We scored an awesome suite for 0.00 (connections) and had a blast. We were right beside the piano, and I have some great pics (thank you). I wish you had other dates in the "South". I know you must be tired and anxious to get back to work, but I believe you guys could pull another tour successfully in 2009! I also hope there is more music from NKOTB. I know we did not meet, but I do hope our paths cross eventually. Wishing you much happiness and success in all of your ventures. Warmest Regards, Amy :) Hello!

My fiance was killed on April 30th, and we were due to get married on October 18th. So you guys gave me something to look forward to while I anticipated the concert and last night you guys gave me a reason to smile, dance and be happy again. For a few hours, I was a kid again without any worries, without any problems, without any pain. (I am in actual physical pain today though, I am not 10 anymore all that dancing, standing, jumping, screaming puts a toll on you the next morning now that we are older!) So I can't thank you enough for last night, for the reunion, for the album, for just giving me something to smile about again. You guys are amazing and always have been. Thank you!

I couldn’t have imagined that NKOTB would have pleasured me and my fellow concert mates the way that you did. You guys held it down and represented like no other. I know you would have never thought that you'd have the response that you guys got when NKOTB got back together to do this (Thanks DONNIE AKA D DUB or BKA the Cheese) I and your fans appreciate the hustle for THE BLOCK. You totally deserve 110 of the love, support and respect from your fans of the past and present. It's a really GOOD LOOK when 5 white guys can bring a black girl to tears, even after the fact. I pray, wish, hope and will pay the price for NKOTB's return to the City of Chicago next year. The second most amazing thing is we finally got a Black Elected President (Obama “The Lock” Babaaaay) in the White House. I’ve said in my life that I wouldn’t live to see a moment like this actually come to past. But dammit we as a people have done it. This has been a hard 6 weeks for this woman, but it has been extremely rewarding. New Kids thanks for the memories and please make more.... and MY people… MY people… MY people thanks for the change we needed the most. Much love, much peace and much more...

I remembered to cast mine :) Now that Obama has won there seem to be so much more hope for the future in this country. There also seems to be many people ready to take action. I think that's Obama's real value--that he knows how to inspire so many people. I also want to say thank you to all of you for getting back together. I was a fan the first time around and I still am today. I love listening to your music. "Single" was playing in my head constantly for about 3 weeks. I love the happy whirlwind you all create around you. Thank you for exposing yourself to all the madness again :) You seem to be relatively down-to-earth and successful at the same time. Some of the stuff I read on this site and the community site makes me want to tell you about something I am doing. Your having trouble sleeping, how Jordan overcame his fear of singing solo with the help of meditation, even Donnie constantly saying, "Get your mind right!" makes me think, "I must tell them about Brain Wave Vibration!" But I don't really know how. The community site makes my head swirl and you guys very rightly guard your well-deserved privacy. So I decided to do it here. Brain Wave Vibration is a kind of moving meditation actually. It's kind of funny and fun at the same time. It's based on the idea that if you take some time to tap into your body's natural rhythms, you will feel more clear, more relaxed, less emotional, more centered, and even heal a whole host of things. I do it almost every day, especially when I'm feeling a little "off". All you really have to do is shake--your body, your head. We often use drumming music to practice it. You should also focus on your brain stem, which you can imagine being near the base of your skull. Sometimes I just focus on relaxing whatever is tense in my body, or on a particular goal I have. By using your body, it's a lot easier than meditating by just trying to focus your mind. Even though it gets better with practice, anyone can do it from the first try because it's so simple. It's really about just letting yourself be free without any inhibitions. Because it's hard to describe in words, I'm putting a link to a video on the website (that's actually me shaking in the video): http://www.brainwavevibration.com/whatIsBWV/howToPractice.aspx It really does put your mind right because the vibrations kind of reset your brain. I've found that we're naturally happy when we let go of a lot of the junk we carry around. Beyond the happy, happy, joy, joy stuff, I've also gathered stories about people who have helped their high blood pressure, fibromyalgia, partial facial paralysis, even Rett syndrome--a lot of muscle and hormone stuff actually. Anyway, I'm glad you guys are having fun. Enjoy the rest of your tour! And have a happy birthday Jon! Love, Michela Thanks for encouraging us to vote Jon! I remembered to cast mine :)

I hope he won't increase the taxes for the higher incomes too much....LOL! Just kiddin, I am happy Obama won!!!! Not only the people in the USA have been waiting for a "change", the people in Europe were looking forward to that too! We are dealing with the financial crisis as well. Thank God we have a slightly different system, esp. for healthcare and loss of jobs! But we still have to be careful were to spend our money on and stuff like that!

I am really disappointed, though, that Proposition 8 (to change California's constitution to say that marriage is only between a man and a woman, invalidating the current right to gay marriage) actually passed. =( I read that Joey stated he was also supporter of equality in the right to marriage, which is awesome (if it's true). I wonder what you're take on this is. We had lots of interesting/crazy propositions to vote on on top of the presidential candidates! So Californians had a lot at stake when we voted this time! Glad I got the chance to participate! This is my third time in my life voting for president and FINALLY I am crying with JOY, not diappointment.
