Sorry, its not another round of answers! Just a quick hello from the
rolling submarine……….
I was so extremely tired last night! I actually fell asleep minutes
after getting out of my sweaty show clothes. Missed the whole Mixx
party and all! Hope if you went you had fun for me!
Its around 5am and I wish I could sleep some more. I was woke to the
same feeling I had during my famous LA earthquake experience . I came
up to the front of the bus and found out we were passing through NYC.
That explained the crazy rumbling feeling. You think its bad driving
down a bumpy road in a two axle car, try doing so in a fifty foot bus.
Then those annoying rumble strips at the toll booths! We must have went
through seven toll booths already! I guess they use all that money for
things other than fixing the roads. So now I’m wide awake trying to
find quiet things to do so not to wake up anyone! Anyone up for cooking
a good “home cooked” breakfast?
One hour to go and I just heard the best news of the morning from our
driver……. There is a Starbucks in the lobby of the Mohegan Sun
Casino…….there is a god!!!! Anyone up? You now where to find me :)!

November 8th, 2008 at 2:06 pm
I would so be there to make you some good food!! Oh and Jon if you ever need a Starbucks in Vancouver BC or Tacoma! Hit me Up! I work at one and would so give you a special drink!
Cant wait to see you 11.21 and 11.22.
Michelle
November 8th, 2008 at 2:06 pm
Sounds good to me.. I could soo use a cup of coffee right now. Add an extra shot of expresso for me.
Those rumble strips are a pain where ever you find them, thats for sure.
Have a great day!!

Hey Jonathan, Maybe I’ll see you at the Starbucks tonight. We can share a drink!
You Rock!

November 8th, 2008 at 2:08 pm
Starbucks yummy wish I was there I would buy you some coffee too.:)
November 8th, 2008 at 2:08 pm
Starbucks or Slots, either way I would be a very happy girl too! Glad to hear from you, it was getting lonely without a blog from you all.
Love from MB
November 8th, 2008 at 2:09 pm
Jonathan, you are making the Starbucks company richer than they already have!!! How about a good mom and pops diners (no guarantee the coffee will be good) but for sure some old fashion bacon and eggs and pancakes will be delicious. Maybe next time bring your own chef, too bad you were not in North Carolina, plenty of “home cooked” breakfast avail. 24/7. Stay healthy, lots of sleep and best of luck!!
November 8th, 2008 at 2:09 pm
Never had starbucks before! I’m not a coffee drinker though really.
I feel so bad for you Jon unable to sleep and all.
You need some good earplugs or somethin’.
Hope you are able to get more rest before the show.
Thanks for the sneaking around in Philly when Joes bus showed and with the umbrella.
I was like “that’s not jon” guess you heard me and proved that wrong.

The concert last night was HOT!!!!! Wish I could have come to Connecticut and had a starbucks with you
November 8th, 2008 at 2:10 pm
Honey,
I’d make you a great Mexican home-made breakfast: scrambled eggs with homemade salsa, flour tortillas, refried beans (no bacon grease or lard from this vegetarian though, only healthy beans!), pan dulce (that is sweet bread for you gringoes), and fresh cut-up fruit like mango and strawberries. Just tell me when….
November 8th, 2008 at 2:10 pm
Jon- if you were in T.O, I would have PM’d you our address and you guys could have made a pit stop, lol. I will make a great healthy and wholesome breakfast for you guys; and plus, the Starbucks is right near my house. Next time you’re in T.O, come by and we’ll take care of you (and the rest of the guys).
Tiff
November 8th, 2008 at 2:11 pm
It’s 10:10 pm now where I live… Would like to have a white chocolate from Starbucks right now, you will have a good sleep if you drink hot milk with honey before you go to bed (if you still can’t sleep at teh bus)- but white chocolate tastes better- try it
November 8th, 2008 at 2:11 pm
Homemade breakfast?! No problem Jon! Just swing by Toronto and I’ll have it ready by the time you get here. lol
I still don’t get the Starbucks addiction BUT if that’s what puts a smile on your smile after a loooong bus ride, then that’s awesome!
Take care,
Michele

November 8th, 2008 at 2:12 pm

One “home cooked breakfast” coming up…or 5, the more the merrier :o). I am sending good sleep vibes to you, enjoy the rest of the tour and enjoy Starbucks!
November 8th, 2008 at 2:14 pm
Wish I was there…
November 8th, 2008 at 2:15 pm
LOL I want starbucks!!! And I will make you breakfast any time you like. What do you want me to cook for you?
November 8th, 2008 at 2:16 pm
LOL!! I will start researching the location of Starbucks near the Sprint Center in Kansas City and report my finding back here. Stay tuned…..!!
November 8th, 2008 at 2:16 pm
I’m up for breakfast but you’ll have to give me a few hours seen as I’m in the London! Shame I’m not there we could have an exciting game of eyespy!
Hope you manage to get some more sleep.
Take Care xxx
November 8th, 2008 at 2:16 pm
Oh Jon!!!! I really wish i could be there to buy you a coffee!!! We order almost the same exact thing only instead of cream i get soy milk. Gotta love the iced coffee!!! I think you would be such a interesting person to sit and pick your brain! And not about anything to do with nkotb! JUST YOU!!! i think it would be amazing!!! Well i hope you can get some sleep tonight! Love You!!!

You could have stopped at my house for breakfast! I’m right between NYC and Mohegan - exit 15 on 95 in Connecticut. We had croissants and home brewed Starbucks here this morning.
In addition to the Starbucks, Mohegan also has a Krispy Kreme. I’m sure you’ll have a great time. Wish I was there. Thanks for the note.
Love,
Katie
November 8th, 2008 at 2:19 pm
If only I were there! I would totally join you for coffee!!!!! I would even attempt to make you breakfast, which if you knew my fear of cooking, you would feel very special:) I would love to chat about the tour, your experiences, etc. I bet you’re a great conversationalist!
I hope you try to get some rest so that you don’t get another round of the flu (my mom says to take ecchinacea:) I hope that you can get some sleep on the way to St. Louis!
Well, I hope a devoted Blockhead was able to keep you company, now, I’m off to my local Starbucks and will be daydreaming that Jon Knight will come join me for a good cup of conversation:)
Love,
Kimberly
November 8th, 2008 at 2:19 pm
Well, my cooking sucks Jon…but can I interest you in a Pop Tart or a microwave breakfest meal? LOL But don’t judge Nashville by lack of cooking skills…I promise if you came here, you would get some good southern cooking. We know how to eat around here! LOL
Enjoy your Starbucks, and get some rest!:)
~TNgirl76
November 8th, 2008 at 2:21 pm
I can totally understand the road issues!!!!! Enjoy your coffee! If you were anywhere near DE I would be happy to provide breakfast, however baco, eggs, and homemade waffles may not ship very well to your location! Have a great Weekend!
November 8th, 2008 at 2:22 pm
No Jon, I don’t know where to find you ? Let me know? I see your vote counted—GO Obama. Anyway, I can’t wait for you guys to come back to Atlanta, I’ve been missing you guys like crazy ever since that night. I’m so glad I got to finally meet you after all these years (21 long years, I first heard you around age 6) back in the VIP M&G. I hope the rumors are true that you guys will do a summer tour…count me in. I’ll be rollin VIP again! I’LL BE LOVING YOU FOREVER! Tell my boys I said HI. Lai
November 8th, 2008 at 2:23 pm
Jon,

November 8th, 2008 at 2:23 pm
JON YOU ARE SO CUTE!!!!
Didn’t you see the Starbucks the last time you played at Mohegan sun?????
Trying to grab some last minute tickets for the show right now!!!!! Hopefully I’ll be seeing you at Starbucks!!! LOL
KEEP A CARAMEL MACCHIATO HOT FOR ME!!!!!!
<3 <3 <3 <3
November 8th, 2008 at 2:24 pm
Rumble strips come in handy if you happen to be driving late at night, and are kind of tired, and you know, didn’t realize that there’s a toll coming up, even though the thing covers the entire expanse of the highway. Not that that’s ever happened to me or anything.
But yes, they do wake you up. And thankfully they did, because now we have this blog! Hope you got your Starbucks.
November 8th, 2008 at 2:24 pm
Thank you for the blogs. We love them. We also suspect that you are trying to kill us all with lust induced strokes. But we still love you! Come see me and I’ll scramble up some eggs while we watch that most fabulous victory speech in Chicago on tivo. I am nerd so I find this scene very hot!
November 8th, 2008 at 2:24 pm
Hi Jon.. i wish i could say to you: See you at the Starbucks!
November 8th, 2008 at 2:26 pm
In addition to my comment above, I’m sure an emu omelet would make an excellent breakfast. Just a thought.
November 8th, 2008 at 2:26 pm
Hey Jon! It’s only 9.30 in the evening here in London, although, like you I wish I could go to sleep! But, not giving in to the sleep monster yet!! After all, its Saturday night :0)
Maybe you should switch to decaf coffee, it might help on the sleep front!
Anyway, I hope you get some shut-eye and enjoy that coffee - have one for me and I’ll see you in London in January - bring it on!!!
xxxx
November 8th, 2008 at 2:29 pm
Jon! you are so funny!! i’m glad you were able to get your starbucks fix!!
i would’ve been more than happy to make you breakfast!! i have been told that i make a pretty good omelette (even though i don’t eat eggs)!!:)
Anyways, safe travels from your next show all the way to St. Louis on Monday!
until then…
love, tara aka joemac and jordan lover
November 8th, 2008 at 2:29 pm
Wow! I am so impressed! Another Jon blog.
You are becoming quite the chatterbox, in a good way! 
Thanks for all the updates. Truly, it really is great hearing from you guys. It makes us feel like we’re in this together.
November 8th, 2008 at 2:30 pm
Hey - you want a home cooked breakfast?? You are in Vancouver in 2 weeks — not a problem!!
Don’t worry we have tonz of Starbucks & Tim Hortons here as well. hahaha
I can’t wait for the show … I’m counting the days!! (13 days btw)
November 8th, 2008 at 2:30 pm
Jon,
Thanks for the blog, hun! Take care of yourself on the road!
You’re such a flirt! I heard that you met our buddy Wizbiff last night and that you were familiar with Lisa’s emu adventures on nkotbfans.com. You made our day, um, night, whatever.
Love,
Allison (aka queen)
November 8th, 2008 at 2:30 pm
Wow, no fair! A vanilla bean frapaccino sounds so good right now and I am totally dieting so I can be smoking hot during your summer tour.
See you in San Diego and Los Angeles. I am flying in from TX to see ya and cannot wait. Yay! Enjoy your coffee and have a wonderful day!
Feel free to let me now about any after parties in CA. wink wink. grin.
November 8th, 2008 at 2:30 pm
Thanks Jon for the blog. It is nice to see them!! I make a mean omlette…if you like those stop by in San Diego!!!
I got a starbucks within walking distance and a ton of fresh fruit at the house all the time! 
Take care and safe travels…see you soon!
November 8th, 2008 at 2:31 pm
oh honey, if you can’t sleep then you need to come see me.
After Im done with you, you’ll sleep like a baby. LOL!
Hope you get some rest and your coffee!
November 8th, 2008 at 2:33 pm
Alright so I very nearly got a starbucks coffee at Target today when I was there but we were heading to Subway instead so that’s what I got here! LOL I was needing java too JK.. As for the breakfast.. I can do simple eggs and bacon and pancakes but anything gourmet.. you’re SOL
Have a good rest of the tour Jonathan.
Muah! <3<3<3

November 8th, 2008 at 2:35 pm
Starbucks was giving a way free coffee if you voted on the 4th, did you get your freebie???? If you ever want a really good home cooked breakfast, i make pancakes, french toast, and waffles all from scratch
Thanks for the post, love to you all!!!!

November 8th, 2008 at 2:35 pm
Hello Jon,
You don’t have to apologize.:) It’s so nice that you left a short message on this board ….you made me smile …I’m sorry that you are so tired, but I hope you’ll enjoy your cup of coffee …
( Sorry, I never know how to post really witty& funny comments, although I’d love to give you a good laugh…)
Take care,
K.
November 8th, 2008 at 2:37 pm
Funny J ~ the rolling submarine. I guess it would be hard to sleep in a bus that made so much noise. Hope you got your Starbucks!
Blessings to you ~
November 8th, 2008 at 2:37 pm
Sweetie I would make you a nice home cooked breakfast there is only one problem…I’m in the Netherlands.
I can tel you that there are 2 Starbucks in Amsterdam airport ( Schiphol)
Try to get some sleep.
Love and Kisses
Natasja
November 8th, 2008 at 2:37 pm
I’ll cook for you. I love to cook. Fastest way to a man’s heart is through his stomach, right? I could cook you a good old fashioned southern breakfast. Homemade biscuits, gravy, bacon, eggs (however you want them). It was great to see another post from you, thanks.
Rachael
November 8th, 2008 at 2:38 pm
Hey Jordan…
You guys rocked at Philly! I was wondering how much sleep you guys get when shows end at 12 a.m. and how long it takes to get on the bus. I am sure sleeping on the bus is nothing like a hotel bed and even better your own bed. Keep on Keeping on!
November 8th, 2008 at 2:39 pm
Oh, Jonathan, Im sorry!! I wish you could have gotten a better night’s sleep!! So glad to hear about the Stahbucks, though. Thanks to YOU, I also have an addiction to that good caffiene high they offer me. I know how you feel about the potholes. Im a pothole dodger from waaay back, LOL! And as for the homecooked breakfast, how does biscuits and gravy sound? That is my specialty… I would LOVE to make you some. But, alas, Im AAALLLLL the way in Northwest Indiana. If ONLY you had asked this question when you were in Chicago a few weeks ago. I could have delivered just for you, along with my now famous (thanks, LOL) I LOVE EMUS sign.
Here’s to a GREAT night of sleep tonight, baby! Wish I could cuddle up to you tonight…

I love when you blog! Put a huge smile on my face because your personality just shines through
.
I tell ya…I’m determined to talk to you this time when you get back to L.A. But the talk that I need to have with Donnie will come first so hopefully there will be time. I regret that I didn’t see you during the MnG on the 8th. I know you probably don’t remember me because we always gave you space during your cig breaks & didn’t want to bug you so I never introduced myself. Just ask Donnie who I am…lol.
I bet that you are happy that you finally get a day off tomorrow. Four shows in a row HAS to be rough.
Hope you enjoyed that Starbucks!!
See you soon
November 8th, 2008 at 2:39 pm
Is that jordan or Jon…Same intials! anyways, if it is jon or jordan..keep on rocking!
November 8th, 2008 at 2:40 pm
Oh, Jonathan if you had me, you wouldn’t need to find Starbucks stores to keep u busy when u can’t sleep. LOL
November 8th, 2008 at 2:41 pm
Ok, is it to “stalkerish” that if I had had more notice I would have driven to CT to have coffee with you?
Love ya!
P.S. OK LADIES, you know I am not the only one thinking it!
November 8th, 2008 at 2:41 pm
Thanks for the blog - I love reading them. As I sit here and read the blogs, my 8 year old son is singing “The Right Stuff” and “Summertime” (his 2 fave NKOTB songs). We will be at the concert on Tues in KC, MO. Can’t wait to see ya there. Take Care!
November 8th, 2008 at 2:41 pm
OK…The Sprint Center is at about 14th and Grand, and the nearest Starbucks seems to be at 1100 Main. It looks to be about 5 blocks away. (3 blocks approx from Barney Allis Plaza) Good luck!!!!!!!
November 8th, 2008 at 2:44 pm
Jon, next time you are in South Texas drop on by. My family makes a great breakfast…Sunday breakfast is the best.
What would the world be w/o STARBUCKS??!

November 8th, 2008 at 2:46 pm
Jonathan,
THANK YOU for what you did for me last Saturday. I will never forget it! Also, I would LOVE to have a coffee (or several) with you! I hope it can happen one day. Send me a sign, will ya?
November 8th, 2008 at 2:48 pm
I would have been happy to make you a home cooked breakfast. I love to cook and bake:). The coffee would be another issue, since I never drink the stuff. You would have to bring your own. Swing by next time your in Michigan:)
November 8th, 2008 at 2:50 pm
Hey Jonathan…
It sounds like you have the same wacky sleep schedule that I have. I always seem to be the one awake while everyone else is sleeping. I wish I could say that I would love to make you a home cooked meal, but truthfully I like you too much to cook for you. I only do that to my enemies. Hope the Starbucks was great and I hope that you were able to catch a few extra winks of sleep.
Lots of love,
Erin L.
November 8th, 2008 at 2:51 pm
I wish I could have met you there. You with your ice coffee and me with my coffe frap, no whip cream.
So next time and it’s totally on me.
And about breakfast I have no clue what that is since I never have time to do it, but I would make the time for you any day!!
Love you lots.
Tracey!
November 8th, 2008 at 2:51 pm
Jon, next time you are in Phoenix I can tell you where all the Starbucks are. And I make good waffles.

November 8th, 2008 at 2:51 pm
Hi There…
What was it about the five o’clock hour this morning? I was awakened by the sound of a very cold north wind slamming the back of the house at just about 5:20 this morning. Just one of Mother Nature’s not so gentle reminders that we are in for Winter here very soon… *sigh*
Breakfast — hummmmmmmmm…. How does homemade blueberry pancakes (fresh berries of course) with warm Quebec maple syrup, Canadian peameal bacon, a side of rosti (pan fried shredded potatoes with a soft centred poached egg on the top) and a serving of mixed melon on the side sound…. Bottomless cup of coffee too! I have been told that I am an amazing cook… But at 5 in the morning, as happy as I would be to join you for that awesome sounding feast… 5 o’clock should only be seen once during the day and not in the middle of the night…
My offer to cook stands! When you and the boys come back to Toronto!! I might even think about that 5 am time… LOL!
Have a great show tonight!
Toronto love to all 5 of You! Mine too!
~damsel~
November 8th, 2008 at 2:51 pm
Oh Jon I know how u feel about thos bumpy things in the roads before the tolls, I went over 2 on the way to the philly show which I might add was freakin’ awesome, remember me I was the one screaming the loudest? U guys rocked and I never had so much fun in my entire life, I didn’t want u to leave and I’m hoping and praying that u will come back. And if ur every in Delaware (yeah Delawhere?) I’d be more than happy to cook u the best home-cooked breakfast ever. Much Love
November 8th, 2008 at 2:52 pm
A Starbucks nearby is ALWAYS good news! Now if only I were anywhere near Connecticut to come say hello..
(Sidenote: Not exactly a ‘home cooked breakfast’, but I once had a frappucino and a double espresso brownie from Starbucks for breakfast… I wouldn’t exactly recommend it, but if you’re ever in need of a serious jolt..! lol)
Thanks to this ‘breakfast blog’ I could go for some french toast and hash browns now, though.. and an iced chai! You’re just feeding my cravings, you evil man!
(Did you get a good breakfast when you rolled into CT?)
Anyway, I hope that falling asleep right after the show made up for being awakened so early this morning! I was watching an interview you guys did in Philly and you all sounded kinda wiped - you were all quiet and sleepy! It was actually kind of cute, but I hope you’re all getting enough rest to keep this going for a while yet… I’d hate to see it all end because you felt pressure to keep up the crazy pace again.
Please don’t wear yourselves out, we’ll still be here!
It’s always a happier day when we get to hear from you… Thanks for the update, and I hope you guys have a fantastic show tonight. Can’t wait ’til the next blog!
Love you lots,
Meg

Hey Jonathan! Hope you guys have a great concert tonight. When I see a Starbucks I get all exited too. It’s the only addiction I have….well other than you guys! You were so sweet when my husband and I met you in New Orleans. He said that if he could sit and have a drink with one of you guys that he would pick you. You made him feel really comfortable. Look forward to seeing you all again! -Shelly
November 8th, 2008 at 2:54 pm
Hey Jon,
Sorry I couldnt be there but i live at the other side of the ocean
I do know that we have a Starbucks in The Netherlands in Amsterdam so don’t worry you can get your coffe over here too and I’d be glad to keep you company. And if you want a good “home cooked” breakfast when you are over here in Amsterdam you just have to call me and i’ll make you some good dutch breakfast
see you at the M&G in amsterdam at february 3th
Love

November 8th, 2008 at 2:55 pm
JON, YOU NEED YOUR SLEEP!! MAYBE YOU DRINK TOO MUCH STARBUCKS!! YOU SHOULD HAVE YOUR DOC WRITE YOU A RX FOR: AMITRIPTYLINE IT’S A LIGHT SLEEPING PILL.

Good luck with the rest of the tour & have fun - Selma
November 8th, 2008 at 2:57 pm
I don’t know how you could sleep on that thing anyway! I’m not good in motion…sleep-wise anyway!
I’d be wanting a sweetened black iced tea myself. Damn that Starbucks!!!!
Talk to us anytime you can’t sleep…you’d probably be amazed how many of us are awake! I listen to my Ipod when I can’t sleep (which is often!). Good luck on your next trip!
November 8th, 2008 at 2:58 pm

Hope to hear from you soon!

Hello Jonathan! If you think, we send you some real hungarian foods. I don’t know “Starbucks”, but I think they have a good black coffee with milk/cream and sugar/sweetening. I send you it mentally.
Try to relax.

My goodness Jonathan. Sorry to hear you’re up when you want to be asleep but I’m glad that you can log on here and talk about it. Hope you get lots of rest in between everything.
Love ya.
November 8th, 2008 at 3:09 pm
Aww Jon. I hope you are getting or have had your Starbucks right about now. I can imagine exactly how you woke up with the rumble strips. Begin originally from LA I know that panic feeling you get in your stomach when an earthquake begins. Um, you need some home cooking, I’m going to offer in Kansas City. See you in 3 days
Take care and have fun tonight.
November 8th, 2008 at 3:11 pm
come find me tuesday morning Jon and i will gladly make you a home cooked breakfast! i’ve got the whole day off from work to get ready for the concert that night. i’m so ready to see you guys! can’t wait until you are in Kansas City!!!!
November 8th, 2008 at 3:11 pm
Sorry you cant sleep that sucks! I bet you are so tired! You’ll feel better after you get your starbucks and if I was there you could put it on my tab now that I’m grown! If you ever come here to horse country (maybe derby) then I will cook you a homemade breakfast then we can walk out and see the horses that you love so much!!

Nooooooooooo!!! I was supposed to go to Mohegan!!! I so would have been in Starbucks!! Their coffee is like crack….. I swear! Anyway, you guys should have stopped by the Bronx, I would have made you the best “home cooked” breakfast ever, you’d want to hire me for the road =P.
Love,
Frances

Now there’s a winning combination, Jon Knight, Starbucks and slots.
November 8th, 2008 at 3:15 pm
Don’t drink coffee, but I will have a hot chocolate or Pepsi with you while you get your coffee. Let us know when your in MN and I will come visit you!! Good to hear from you again!! I hope you are all doing well!!
Sending lots of love!

Well the next time you want a good “home cooked” breakfast and you are in Cali please just knock on my door. I make the best Pumpkin pancakes. I only make them on special occasions and only during the fall/winter. I can make just about anything you want, but the pancakes are the best.
And if you want to bring some friends (possibly the other guys) no problem. I love to cook so the more people the better.
November 8th, 2008 at 3:16 pm
Hey Jon,
Can you bring me back a White Chocolate Mocha from Starbucks while you’re at it?? We can meet up at Starbucks at Amsterdam airport in February if you want! And I make great waffles for breakfast!
For someone who doesn’t like to blog, you do a good job keeping us updated!! Thanks for everything!
Love always, Merle
November 8th, 2008 at 3:16 pm
Hey There JK
Sorry you couldnt be here for our homemade breakfast. french toast w/ cinnamon:D. Make sure you stop by when your in houston(hopefully very soon)
November 8th, 2008 at 3:16 pm
You know, when I first read this blog I thought that here is poor Jon blogging at 5am and none of us responded until after 2pm…wow, guess all the blockhead fans slept in. But then I noticed that your blog wasn’t posted to the website until right before 2pm, I don’t feel so bad now. Hated to think you were writing all of us because you were bored and you didn’t get anything back for hours! Ha
Well, Starbucks sounds good even now at 4:07pm my time. Whenever I travel I wear headphones with relaxing music to drown out the road a bit. Oops, hold on. My little boy wants to write you a note:
my name is john too, i am 6. have a good trip.
Ok, you guys rock the house like you always do and try to get rest when you can. God Bless!
November 8th, 2008 at 3:20 pm
You haven’t had breakfast until you’ve had a delicious Sri Lankan breakfast: coconut rice (kiri bath), onion and chilli sambol (katta sambol) and a little lamb or chicken curry. Yum, yum! Or swap out the rice for Sri Lankan style pancakes made with coconut milk, flour and yeast instead of regular milk and flour that you make in little wok-shaped pans so they come out like a light, lacy bowl. My mouth is starting to water!
Too spicy? Maybe some apple crepes with some sausage would be tasty, too! Just stop my my house anytime, or when you guys are in L.A. before Thanksgiving! Oh, and there are 17 Starbucks in a 5 mile radius from my house. No joke. Gotta love L.A.
=), Samantha
November 8th, 2008 at 3:20 pm
I’d be right there with you, sipping on my Chai frappucino. Just wait when you’re heading south from Vancouver to Tacoma. There’s a Starbucks practically every block! You’ll be in heaven!
Sorry you’ve had such a bumpy ride! Next time when you can’t sleep, you should log on to the community and read what your mom is writing!
See you in two weeks!!! Well, technically, I’ll see you perform in Vancouver in 13 days, but I’ll actually get to meet you in two weeks at the Tacoma concert! YAY!!!
Love you!

November 8th, 2008 at 3:21 pm
my sweet baby you went through NYC without coming and visiting me in good ol Brooklyn - I would have made you breakfast sweet man anytime for you lol, I’m actually good at cooking breakfast I can’t cook that great but I can do breakfast lol. I agree with you about how bumpy that ride is those potholes are killers lol. I have riden an express bus to and from Manhattan for close to 15 years when I worked there so I had 1 1/2 - 2 hour wonderful bumpy ride twice a day and I know that feeling and trying to sleep through it is sometimes impossible took me a while to learn. Even now that I’m working in Brooklyn the bus ride is like over an hour and it is crazy I try to read a book or listen to the Ipod but sometimes it impossible lol.
Anyway hope you got some sleep sweetie pie - oh yeah to give you an update on the lovely face plant experience of this week when I fell. It has now turned into a really cute little black eye right under my eye - tried make up but it is still there so even if I did make you breakfast I would possibly not look my best with the little black eye and the cuts on my nose and the knee is still skinned up lol. Hey come on we have to remember the most important part even with my faceplant and the bleeding nose and knee I still stopped voted and then went home to take care of my wounds. Hope you got some sleep angel man luv ya bunches and hope you got your Starbucks - have a great show tomorrow - luv ya !!!!!!
November 8th, 2008 at 3:22 pm
OBAMA! OBAMA! I don’t have time to read through the previous responses b4 mine but I’m surprised you didn’t mention OBAMA in your post!! STARBUCKS RULES!!!!
November 8th, 2008 at 3:22 pm
OH YEAH! Thanks you for blogging today cuz today is my 30TH BIRTHDAY!!!
November 8th, 2008 at 3:23 pm
Hey Hon!!! I’m twenty eight and have never been a good sleeper! I can understad your frustration with being awake when all you want to be is asleep!! So when you roll through Texas we can meet and share a Starbucks and talk about the finer things in life!! From one non sleeper to another hope you get some rest!!!
November 8th, 2008 at 3:24 pm
Starbucks is a lovely thing. My brother is a Manager of one and gets unlimited supplies… I can hook you up!
Try to sleep well. Get it when you can - your fans understand.

November 8th, 2008 at 3:29 pm
Jonathan,
I love your wicked sense of humor!
I’ve got some good sleeping advice for you. Try wearing ear plugs so that you can get a good night’s rest. However, this may not help you during an earthquake or when you come across some bumpy roads, or toll booth strips!
Oh, and I’d volunteer to cook you some “home cooked” breakfast, but unfortunately I’m on the West Coast & I can’t get to you quick enough!
I’ll definitely take you up on your offer to meet you at a Starbucks in San Diego and/or LA in a few weeks. Btw, I’m taking my 2 nieces to the SD show & they’re going to be in for a real treat since they’ve never been to one of your shows!
Enjoy your time at Mohegan & I’ll see you in 2 weeks! Take care.

It’s so sweet of you to blog when you’re that exhausted. I have horrible sleep patterns too. This is probabyly why I’m always on this site. I am a dealer in said crack that you call Starbucks. Let me know if you need a hookup.
Your girl,
Jenai in Detroit.
November 8th, 2008 at 3:30 pm
I can cook you breakfast in bed and cook other things together:) Hope you enjoyed your Starbucks. My fav right now is the Peppermint Mocha Twist soy. Gets you in the mood for the holidays. Get some sleep. Love, Toni
November 8th, 2008 at 3:31 pm
Hey Jonathan! You don’t have to be sorry sometimes you have to get some rest in order for you to get ready for the next concert. I know it’s not easy being
on the road especially you don’t get enough sleep while on the bus. I hope your Starbucks coffee helping you get energized for tonights concert. Hope all
is well with everyone there take care!
November 8th, 2008 at 3:32 pm
Lol.There is a Starbucks in the Target that I work at-but is closed when I come to work.If it was open I would be so happy.I had a pumpkin spice drink from there last weekend at the one in a dif Target store that’s near me.I also live up the street from one.Caffeine is sometimes how I make it through my day.I could make you bacon and eggs-I even have a wafflemaker!Those toll booths are a pain.Hope u get better sleep tomarrow morning!

November 8th, 2008 at 3:33 pm
God what I wouldn’t give to be in that Starbucks!! LOL. As for the home cooked meal, if you come back to Charlotte I can hook you up! It’s always so nice reading your blogs…you’re just so open and candid! I hope you’re able to get some much needed rest soon! By the way, meeting you in Charlotte was a dream come true! I hope it was just the first of many meetings. Thanks for being the amazing man that you are!!
November 8th, 2008 at 3:35 pm
You mentioned about home cooked meal what is your favorite home cooked meal? All I can suggest for you is blueberry muffin or blueberry pancakes.
November 8th, 2008 at 3:36 pm
Hey Jonathan,
Love to here from you again your blogs keep my spirits up in this very trying economic time. Took my Kids to see your Concert in Providence the other night and I have to say that it was the best time we had out in a very long time. You guys are all so amazing I can’t believe how much energy you all have. My Kids were very Happy to see Mom’s Favorite “Boy” band. They grew up listening to all kinds of music but They now admit that New Kids is there Favorite. Thank You all so much for being so good at what you do
Peace and Love

I can only imagine how old it must get to have to sleep in a moving bus.
Thank goodness for starbucks and how it’s everywhere!
November 8th, 2008 at 3:37 pm
wow, lots of people what to have coffee with you. Hmmm, where will you be after the show in Salt Lake City next Saturday? I can’t dream can’t I? Enjoy the weekend!
November 8th, 2008 at 3:38 pm
You’re too cute! Early morning breakfast and some Starbucks sounds like heaven! Thanks for blogging, sweetie, even when you’re exhausted. Take care and enjoy the rest of the ride (hopefully minus the rumbling hehe)! Hope to see you all again this summer!!! Much love & safe travels.
XoXo,

Jon,Jon,Jon,
No doubt you’re a Sagittarius because you love to tease,remember our motto(we aim to please),a Leo’s motto is (i’m a pussycat)i know this personnally because my sister is a Leo(aug.19th),tell Donnie he’s a pussycat inside that’s good that means he as a kind soul and a kind heart mind you so do Sagittarius…lol maybe we sometimes say things without thinking,like now which as nothing to do with starbucks and the mohegan…lol,
See you in Vancouver,
your fans from Montreal,
Karen and Brenda(Leo)
November 8th, 2008 at 3:40 pm
We share the same addiction! I can not function without my coffee! Hope you enjoyed your Starbucks, and welcome back to New England! It’s been so long.
I had a blast in Providence the other night, and am so depressed I am not going to Mohegan tonight! I have zero voice left, and am still sore from dancing my butt off on Thursday. I have no idea what I did, but what ever it was, wasn’t very good! It’s probably a good thing I don’t have tickets tonight. How do you guys do it every night?
You are less than a 1/2 hour from my house (in RI of course). Come on over for breakfast in the morning, I am a phenomenal cook, and I’ll have coffee!
Have a great show tonight!
November 8th, 2008 at 3:40 pm
lol
you are so cute wish i was closer
7 days till you hit salt lake i know several starbucks close by
amber
November 8th, 2008 at 3:41 pm
Oh Lord I crave Starbucks sometimes, its so very bad eh?
My problem is I only know how to order one thing- Caramel Macchiato - so yum.
Breakfast you say? Hmm, how about At The Crossroads? Its a homestyle buffet restaurant near St. Jacobs Ontario- might require some more bumpy roads and toll booths but it is soooo worth it. Let me know, I’ll make a reservation.

November 8th, 2008 at 3:41 pm
Like everyone else here…I sure wish I could have met you for a coffee! Glorious Starbucks with the wonderful Jonathan Knight, I believe that’s what they would call a “dream come true”!!
Hope you’re able to get some sleep soon. Thanks for indulging us with the blogging…keep it real
November 8th, 2008 at 3:42 pm
You guys have to be wore out! When I think about nkotb traveling this tour it makes me want to thank you again and again. Your fans really appreciate what you are doing!!!! SADLY
November 8th, 2008 at 3:44 pm
Jon,

Oops… I forgot a P.S. As a lifelong L.A. resident, the rocking and the rolling from the earthquakes is always an interesting eye opener. But I have to admit, I too was more scared that usual during this last one over the summer because for the first time, it wasn’t early in the morning or late at night like all the other big ones were (Whittier Narrows, Northridge, etc.), but at like 11:30 am, right in the middle of the day. I was at work, and some of the patients in the clinic started to cry and panic, which caused me to panic, too! And the panic went up and up when my co-workers started to panic, too! Oh well, yet another story for My Life in Los Angeles.
Ducking and covering,
Sam
November 8th, 2008 at 3:47 pm
Jon, thanks for the note! It made my day. Come out to California - I’ll cook you breakfast - ok, so maybe I’ll just go to this awesome Italian bakery I know and get yummy breakfasty things but it’s the thought…Oh, and I make an excellent cup of fresh brewed coffee. Stahbucks has nothing on me
I hope you get your coffee fix and a smoother bus ride and more sleep. Take care of yourself mister! We heart you all to pieces. You know that right?
Kisses by the millions to you dahling!

November 8th, 2008 at 3:50 pm
I would love to cook breakfast for you every single day of the year! LOL! I know what you mean about those stupid rumble strips! They are so damn annoying! I hope you have a great sleep tonight sweetheart! Always in my heart and always thinking of you all! Love, love, love you!

November 8th, 2008 at 3:50 pm
i am a nice southern girl. so if you are looking for a real good breakfast, come my way!!!!!
November 8th, 2008 at 3:50 pm
Hi guys! im not the same 12 yo who was in love with you all those years ago, now im a mom, so I was so excited about the comeback!! The biggest news of the year besides expecting my 4th baby Dec. 3rd was coming to see you, I couldnt get tix to the Dunk in Providence, but was extremely thrilled to be able to get them for Mogehan……Emma had other plans though,she made her debut Thursday night @ 11:47pm weighing in at 8lbs 6oz I’m extremely overjoyed by the birth of my 4th and last baby, however completely heartbroken I can’t make the show tonight, I hope you have a great night and so wish i could be there
November 8th, 2008 at 3:52 pm
Jon~I wish I could figure you out. You always find a way to make a girl like me laugh and cry at the same time.
I can relate to the rumbling road issues, living in Chicago we have 2 seasons here…winter and construction! Where the heck are my tax dollars really going? I am sorry you are still having problems with getting sleep, but soon the tour will be over and you can relax all you want. And I am so glad to hear you can still get your Staaaahbucks fix
I don’t know what I would do without my daily fix of Starbucks either. Can’t wait to see you guys this summer out on the road again, it will be another fun-filled adventure I know.
Oh, and if you need someone to fix you a nice home-cooked meal then I would gladly volunteer for that position. I LOVE to cook, after all, I am part Italian, Irish and German.
Hope you have a great show tonight, alot of my friends are there at the M&G as I type this. Enjoy your day of rest tomorrow.
Lovin’ You Always,
Jace

I looked for you at 7:30am this morning at the Borgata Starbucks, but I guess it was in vain since you were long gone. I had heard Donnie was still around, do I was hoping you were too. Next time
It was so great to finally meet you at the 5* last night! Thanks for looking and listening while I showed you Lisa’s emu story and pics. I was so nervous, I hope I made sense to you! I forgot to even tell you that you are my favorite, but maybe you know that already since you read our board. Thanks for the hugs!
Love you!

Hey! The skeptic here, just cannot stop myself from sending a response… My last two are still awaiting some kind of “moderation” not sure if these are getting to you. They are more than likely lost in cyberspace.
I was up at the same time this morning. I had to work on a large order for a customer. My coffee is the same as yours except, I like it hot not cold.
I have to drive 40 minutes to a Starbucks; I live in BFE… ALABAMA. Honestly, I am not a huge fan of Starbucks (sorry), nothing fancy for me, just plain old Foldgers,Gevalia or whatever I can get my hands on will do the trick.
I checked this site several times today, hopelessly… Your comment did not post here in AL until sometime after 12:00 CST…

November 8th, 2008 at 4:01 pm

November 8th, 2008 at 4:02 pm
So sorry to hear you had troble sleeping. I can’t imagine going down the highway in one of those buses. I saw them up close on Wed in Philly- they are huge. I’m happy to hear there was a Starbucks in the lobby of the casino- I had one today to help me get through my workday. Gotta love Starbucks!! Great show in Philly!! I’m sure you didn’t even feel it, but as you were leaving the ‘B’ stage, I was lucky enough to be standing close by and grazed yours and Joey’s shoulders. That made my entire night!
Thanks for the blog- keep them coming!
Take care,
Molly
November 8th, 2008 at 4:03 pm
MMMM Starbucks …… Delicious. Too bad Starbucks cant provide home cooked breakfast. Have a good rest/sleep.

November 8th, 2008 at 4:08 pm
Starbucks is very important. I woke this morning to find NO coffee in my freezer. So, I had to trudge to Starbucks! I don’t sleep much either. In fact, dogwalker73 wonders how I stay up until 3 a.m. and get up by 7 or earlier. Hope you got some sleep! MWAH! (((HUGS))) Have fun at the show!
Love & Blessings!

November 8th, 2008 at 4:08 pm

November 8th, 2008 at 4:10 pm
Hey Guys,
I’m from Boston (Mattapan) and was lucky enough to see the show at the Garden. You guys rocked it! I can remember seeing you perform at schools before you hit it big. Nice to see you guys have kept level heads. Maria
November 8th, 2008 at 4:11 pm
I just want to say you guys were AMAZING last night. I met you at the 5* M&G
I gave you a hug and you were so nice. I just wish it was longer. All I could say was “thank you for coming back” I felt such like a dork later. I wanted to go to the MIXX. But I was beat to. Enjoy you Starbucks!! By the way I love the videotape idea. I was in like the 4th row front and center.
November 8th, 2008 at 4:16 pm
Jon, I´m happy to hear about you. I´m agree with you Starbucks coffes are delicius. Have a great day.

November 8th, 2008 at 4:19 pm
I always say that’s how we know God loves us…he created Starbucks (or coffee, anyway…) Oh, and I would LOVE to cook a home cooked breakfast anytime…what do you like? Pancakes? French toast? Bacon? Sausage? Your wish is my command
Hope to get some face time with you at Tacoma. Don’t have 5* but I’ll be wearing a special shirt for you just in case our paths cross…have a great day and hope you eventually get the sleep you need. 
November 8th, 2008 at 4:20 pm
Jon,
I feel you!! I love my starbucks as well. Also wanted to tell you, you did a wonderful job in Tampa. I loved every minute of it. The only thing I missed was the opening part b/c stupid me had a panic attack. Thank the lord my husband is a nurse and he calmed me down. Hope to see you guys next year.

Hey you…
Too bad you weren’t at my house this morning.I had to make a big breakfast for my big football player of a son. their team won 54-6…As For starbucks I think it’s the downfall of normal peoles bank accounts. $4.65 for a grande latte????Craziness..Us canadians can get a iced capp at timmies for a little over 2 bucks and it has whipped cream! But I love you anyways…If I’m going to splurge on a starbucks (usually while xmas shopping) I will bet a pumpkin spiced latte.have agreat day and I hope you get some sleep.
November 8th, 2008 at 4:32 pm

The diners at the Mohegan Sun cooked a mean feast for breakfast. There was one on the top level on the left if you’re looking at the waterfall… HUGE meals
Have fun there!! Hope you found your Starbucks
See you again in January! And don’t forget your thermals.

Test… Test….Test…,
Hey! The skeptic here, just cannot stop myself from sending a response… My last two are still awaiting some kind of “moderation” not sure if these are getting to you. They are more than likely lost in cyberspace.
I was up at the same time this morning. I had to work on a large order for a customer. My coffee is the same as yours except, I like it hot not cold.
I have to drive 40 minutes to a Starbucks; I live in BFE… ALABAMA. Honestly, I am not a huge fan of Starbucks (sorry), nothing fancy for me, just plain old Foldgers,Gevalia or whatever I can get my hands on will do the trick.
I checked this site several times today, hopelessly… Your comment did not post here in AL until sometime after 12:00 CST…

Anytime you want a home cooked meal be it breakfast, lunch or dinner come to Marion, IL and I will cook for you. We’ll discuss dessert later. I have to admit I do make a mean lasagna. Love you!

Thanks for the new blog. I’ve been keeping an eye out them. Hope you got some more sleep. I can’t imagine how exhausting the tour schedule must be. I know sometimes you do concerts as many as 4 nights in a row. If your still having trouble sleeping try some chamomile tea with honey. Warm milk is good for helping you sleep to, but if you’re like me, you got but some chocolate in it to get it down. If so try some caffeine free hot chocolate mix. Please tell the other guys to get online and send out some more blogs, and tell Donnie we want more Vlogs.
November 8th, 2008 at 4:40 pm
Hey honey - hope you get your coffee. Can’t wait to see you in the UK - roll on January.

November 8th, 2008 at 4:48 pm
Hi Jonathan,
Hope you had a good breakfast/coffee and a good day as well. You are so well loved by all of your fans and we miss you even more if you don’t check in. Was happy to hear from you again. I don’t drink coffee but you are definitely my cup of coffee, so keep it coming. Thank you so much for all your time.
November 8th, 2008 at 4:48 pm
Hey Jon.
Well It’s 10:47am here in Aus.
And Ive just enjoyed my lovely bacon & eggs.
So Im hopin you got a good breakfast too.
I believe you’re show starts in about an hour or so.
I hope you had some nice starbucks coffee to energize you for the show!
Luv Veronica.

November 8th, 2008 at 4:49 pm
Jon…thanks for the blog. I hate that you aren’t getting enough sleep, but I am very glad you’re taking the time to let us know what’s going on. We love to hear from you guys! I hope you can get some rest…
Seriously, you guys need to come to Arkansas! We’re so laid back and relaxed here, you’d be sure to get a little rest!
Oh, and you can tell your brother that Cherry says GET YOURSELVES DOWN SOUTH! LOL!
Much luv,
Lisa

Jon,
I would be glad to make you breakfast any day of the week. I am a southern girl and know how to cook an awesome down home southern breakfast. Feel free to look me up any time you are in Alabama. I can make anything that your heart desires. Stay Safe & God Bless.
Love always,

November 8th, 2008 at 4:59 pm
Hola Jon!
I went to see you guys last night at the Borgata! I went to the MSG concert but I was on the 3rd level so this time I decided to get GA tickets and I’m so glad I went last night because I never thought I would make it to the front…and no I was not pushing girls to get to the front, they were pushing me but it worked out perfectly for me because I took advantage of it and somehow I ended up where I did! I guess it’s a good thing that I’m small.
When you started videotaping the audience, I saw my sign on the big screen…I was the one with a homemade face time white shirt and I was holding up a silver poster board that said Face Time and all of the guys names
You can see the creases on the sign because I had to roll it up and fold it in half to sneak it in 
Will you guys be posting up that video? Well, I didn’t get my Face Time but I got the chance to see you guys up close and get Donnie’s (for sure!) and Joey’s (I think) attention for like 2.5 seconds when I held up a t-shirt that said “P.S. I’m a big girl now” lol! Therefore, I am one grateful, happy and satisfied girl!
Anyways, what I really wanted to say was that I noticed something was up with you because when you guys were singing “Tonight”, you weren’t doing the little dance with the guys! lol It’s understandable though, this whole touring thing must be very exhausting! BUT, you boys don’t even have to sing or dance and girls will still go crazy for you! I’m just glad to see you guys are yourselves and have that good relationship/friendship because it really shows on stage! It was a great show and whenever NKOTB performs in NJ or NY again, I will be there!
Los quiero mucho!!
Natali
November 8th, 2008 at 5:05 pm
I think I’ll be brutally honest. I would make you breakfast, but I’m not sure just how much you’d enjoy it. Not much of a cook. But I do make a mean toaster waffle.
November 8th, 2008 at 5:08 pm
Ok, so I’ve got the pan out for some breakfast - even though it’s 6pm here in Dallas. Never too late or too early for breakfast. I’d like to start out with a specialty that mom always made me. She called it ‘eggs in a nest’. I always liked my egg to be just a TAD runny, that way it gets soaked up in the bread. She also used to take the little squares that she cut out of the bread and brown them on either side. Yum. I’m not much of a pork eater (no pun intended), but I can cook some mean bacon and sausage. My mom taught me well - and her mom (who is from Boston by way of Belfast, IRL) taught her. It runs in our genes. Bisquits and gravy is something that my kitchen HATES for me to make … just tell me Jon, what would you prefer? I’m ready - although you may have to wait until Salt Lake since I don’t think I can make it from Dallas to Mohegan in time. haha.
While you’re at Starbucks - get me a grande Caramel Macchiato with an extra shot - no whip. Thanks. haha.
See ya in SLC.
November 8th, 2008 at 5:09 pm
Aw, Jon….
How I know about being wide awake way too early after passing out and trying to find those ‘quiet’ things to do to occupy oneself so as not to wake other sleeping people darn it, like I get mad why they managing to sleep thru it all arghhhhhh, well jealous and like blurry eyed and well tired but just no more sleep for the night for me :s
Am so glad you found Starbucks and of course a huge thank you for posting, I make a nice mini-scream every post and then so want to read what everyone has posted but get desperate to let you know I have seen, am glad to have been and can’t wait to hang out with each one of the beans! (I had to rhyme somehow
lol).
I don’t sleep on coaches, in fact they can make me sooooooo anxious, i just want to scream at the driver to sttttooooooooooooooppppppppppppppp and just let me off nowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
so imagining having to be on them overnight between busy tours with existing sleep issues just wow, your doing soo great I think managing to get back up on stage with rest evading you some.
Hopefully you’ll get to have a niceeeeeee snoozings when you celebrate your birthday this year
K, enough keeping you awake reading ramblings but a question:
What would be the ideal home-cooked breakfast???
I make a mean fried egg sandwich, so mean, it’s one that you won’t be bothered to have again! lol I occasionally muster up some good ol’ scrambled eggs, no milk and not traditional but I get a good return of compliments and have not found any moulding under the sofa yet! So good even the kitties try and mug me for it!!!
Ciao for now o sweet one!

Hey Jon
I’m up for breakfast anytime. If you ever make it to Winnipeg, you can have your choice of several Starbuck, however Second Cup is much better. When you guys are in Vancouver and your having a craving, go to Robson Street, there are 2, right across the street from eachother.
November 8th, 2008 at 5:09 pm
Ooooh breakfast and Starbucks sound heavenly. I know what I am having for dinner tonight! I am glad you got a little bit of sleep, and hope you can get even more rest. Also, thanks for an amazing performance in Tampa. That was my first show (tried so many times to see you guys when I was a teenager), and it was worth the wait! Hope you have a fabulous night!
November 8th, 2008 at 5:11 pm
Hi Jon its great to hear from you on the road. I would make you a great home cooked breakfast, to bad I am in Ohio. Enjoy your starbucks.
November 8th, 2008 at 5:11 pm
Looks like you’re getting the hang of blogging now, well, at least to us anyway. LOL. Aren’t you glad we are here to talk to? Gives you something quiet to do, too. A home cooked breakfast, huh? I’d be willing to provide one but it’d be my hubby cooking it for all of us!!! LOL. Maybe he’ll tell you how the “bald tires” worked out for him! LOL. If you are ever in Maine, hit us up! LOL.
November 8th, 2008 at 5:14 pm
Nice to hear from you Jon!
Can’t wait to see you guys perform at the AMA’s!
November 8th, 2008 at 5:17 pm
Get some rest, Jon, and take care of you!
Hugs and Love,
Carpe Diem,
xx
November 8th, 2008 at 5:17 pm
Did you really just tease us like that? Really?
November 8th, 2008 at 5:18 pm
Hey Jonathan!
Wish I were there for Starbucks brekkie! Too bad I couldn’t get there that quick from Toronto!
Hope you were able to get some sleep at the hotel though!
Good to hear from you….feel free me to email me if you can’t sleep!

November 8th, 2008 at 5:23 pm
Jon, your submarine comment is so Beatle-esque! Like the Fab Four, you guys are looking out at the rest of us from a unique little world we can’t even imagine. Well, next time you want breakfast in SC, stop by and I’ll make banana pancakes.
Love, E
November 8th, 2008 at 5:24 pm
HI JON WISH I WAS ABLE TO JOIN U FOR SOME STARBUCKS, IM A COFFEE JUNKIE MYSELF. SORRY TO HEAR ABOUT THE SLEEP. HOPE THINGS GET BETTER FOR U.

November 8th, 2008 at 5:27 pm
I am with you on the Starbucks!!! My mind does NOT function before 9 am and 2 cups of coffee!!! Hope you’re able to get some sleep on Sunday when you have a break!!
November 8th, 2008 at 5:27 pm
Hey Jon glad to see a blog from you you are missed when you don’t blog.

Sorry to hear you are not able to sleep, get a goodset of earplugs.
Always a fan

November 8th, 2008 at 5:33 pm
Hey Jon…
I hope you enjoyed the Starbucks this morning. The road sounds like a very interesting experience. I have never been on a 50 ft bus… I can’t imagine what it’s like sleeping on the tour bus. I would miss my own bed way too much. Thank you so much for the wonderful tour you guys have put on night after night… even though sickness you guys have never faltered. I appreciate the wonderful meet & greets I’ve experienced twice with you guys. Definitely the most approachable celebrities by far and the most humble. Have a great show tonight in CT. Looks like you guys should be out of the Meet & Greet by now judging by the time.
Lots of love & continous support!
Stephanie
November 8th, 2008 at 5:34 pm
I always wondered what they did with the money as well. They They certainly don’t fix the roads. Hope you enjoyed your your Starbucks this morning!
November 8th, 2008 at 5:35 pm
Hey Jon,
Great to hear from you. I wish there was a Starbucks near me. I’m a bit of a coffee addict since I hate tea. I hope you’re able to get some well earned rest. Take Care of yourself.
Hugs Helen
November 8th, 2008 at 5:36 pm
My friend and I drove from VA for the show last night (great job, it was awesome). We both swore we’d find a way to say Hi and all that crazy stuff…and then after walking around the casino for hours before the show and then standing for hours shoved together with people we realized we were old and said screw it. We immediately went back to our hotel to rest our achey knees. As much as I’d love to meet the people who made such an impact on my younger years….I just don’t have the energy for that! Hope you enjoyed the crack that is Starbucks…and thanks for making me feel like a kid again…even if it was only briefly.

November 8th, 2008 at 5:37 pm

IT WAS A BLAST SEEING YOU GUYS AGAIN AND BETTER THAN EVER! CONGRATS!!
November 8th, 2008 at 5:38 pm
Jon you have to go to the one in Bingham, MA… they have the best variety and service!!!
November 8th, 2008 at 5:40 pm
Hey Jon….if you were here I’d make you breakfast in bed….and then you could get a full belly and go back to sleep….and I wouldn’t let ANYBODY wake you! LOL..I’d even keep my doggies away from you! You need some rest! Poor guy! Don’t let us work ya too hard! We love you!
Warm hugs,
Skye:)
November 8th, 2008 at 5:41 pm

November 8th, 2008 at 5:41 pm
OH Wow, So glad to hear from you. I just hate sleepless Nights. I watched the sun come up this morning too. I am not a Coffee Drinker but I am a wonderful cook & I cook some great dishes. I am bringing some homemade baked goods to my concert in hopes that you guys can enjoy something homemade instead of store bought. I will see you in a couple of days… Be looking for my cookies & Banana Bread…

Hey Jonathan,
Nice to hear from you again !
Well, by the time you recieve this here it will be already evening… but at my side of the world it is ca. 4.45 am on a sonday morning. And I suffer insomnia lately, argh.
So, Wakey - wakey, eggs and Bacey !! I so miss Lavazza espresso.
November 8th, 2008 at 5:49 pm
I wish I had been able to find a ride up to the show tonight at Mohegan! I am so incredibly upset that I won’t see you guys again until…who knows when! *tear*
I hope you got your coffee and that the show goes great! I just really wish i was there! =*(
November 8th, 2008 at 5:50 pm
I love my Tim Hortons i just think it’s better no offense to Starbucks i just love my Iced Cappucino’s that’s the only time i like coffee can’t wait to see you guys 13 more days.
have fun until then and even more in Vancouver can’t wait the show will be off the hook.
November 8th, 2008 at 5:51 pm
Hi Jonathan
It is nice to hear that you are getting some sleep through all the craziness you’re going through right now. I sure wish I was in the area but i’m down here in Louisiana. But anyhow best of love and get some rest HE-HE!!
Huggs and Kisses! GOD BLESS!
Jeannie
November 8th, 2008 at 5:52 pm
Awwwww Jon you’re such a sweetie….I’m sat in on a Saturday night (in London) and randomly put on MTV and you guys were on there (top 50 countdown thing) I was about to go to bed but on came the ‘behind the scenes’ thing so I’m now sat up watching this and it’s nearly 1am and I need to sleep but I find it so fascinating to hear all what went on back in the day and watching you all perform! Only seen bits of this before, never knew there was such a big thing with u leaving before. U seem such a nice guy, even when ur knackered and probably pissed off you still find time for us fans
Keep your blogs coming as we all love reading them. Awww you’ve just said on this programme how you’re not a dancer….I think at least a million fans would disagree with you on that one and say you r such a fab performer…I’m so glad that you agreed to come back with the others, the group definitely wouldn’t be the same with just the other 4. Can’t wait til you’re back in the UK in Jan xxxx P.S Enjoy your starbucks 
November 8th, 2008 at 5:55 pm
It’s nice to hear that even tho u were really tired, still had time to think of your loyak fans! That’s one of the many things I love about NKOTB, fans come first. I wish I could have beeb at your Atlantic City tour Friday. I was bummed out, because I am missing you sooo much from seeing you in Philly.
Tell everyone I said HI
Luv,
Diane
November 8th, 2008 at 5:56 pm
I love how candid you are. If I was anywhere near that starbucks, I would have had to turn all stalkarazzi on you. :). I hope that you are enjoying yourself and that you can get some GOOD rest soon. Not much longer and you guys have a nice long break. Thanks for the blog. Crazy how it started out that you didn’t like blogging, but now you post more than the others. Its addictive isn’t it? Have a great night.
November 8th, 2008 at 5:56 pm
dude you guys must have a phenomenal time reading half the things written on here…hahahahaahahaha! IF you even do read this…
November 8th, 2008 at 5:57 pm
Jon, next time your up & cant sleep hop on the JordanGate thread…theres always a few REFRESH girls around to chat with
November 8th, 2008 at 5:58 pm
I AM awake but I am not anywhere near where you are…just ‘recovering’from a jetlag after my trip to Florida to see the Tampa concert..I am in Amsterdam Europ now….sooo
But no worries in Amsterdam we have Starbucks too !!! not as many as in the US but I am happy to show you where they are:)
Anyway….ENJOY;-)
November 8th, 2008 at 6:01 pm
Jon!!!
Wow, i was so happy to see that you had time to write a blog. (:
But.. i gotta say that even thought its been a week since you came to my home town MIAMI and performed in the bank atlantic, i miss you guys to death! i was 2 yr old when i became a fan, and i had those hot pink hats, and STILL have those music videos on VHS! lol its hilarious! but ive gotta say you guys still have it, and thank you so much for reuniting, it means a lot. <3
you take care and tell the guys i say HI!
ps. stay cute, and hope to see you guys soon! maybe a meet and greet.
- Jenny
November 8th, 2008 at 6:01 pm
I would love to have that breakfast with you:)
November 8th, 2008 at 6:03 pm
Jon, I love the Starbucks too. I love their Pumpkin spice with soy (cause I am lactose intolerant) But anyway hope the starbucks was tasty as usual. Have a great tour. Can’t wait for the next!!!
November 8th, 2008 at 6:04 pm
HI JON-
You guys must be exhausted with all the back to back cities. I really give you guys props for all the hard work, on top of that you are always all smiles and so nice to your fans. I know how hard it is to be nice when you are tired. I would love to bring you some home cooked food. I will drop some off for you in LA. I know you probably wont eat but just the chance that you might is worth the effort. When you come to LA try the pinkberry sorbetto. I dont know if it is just in LA thing but you got to try. I had it today and it was so good! Thanks for the message again!
Love it and you,
Caroline
November 8th, 2008 at 6:05 pm
Hi Jonathan!
I also got my dose of Starbucks coffee today. Hope I will see you again some TIME soon at a other concert in Montreal or maybe (closer in TIME) on NKTV.
Love Forever

Hope you get some rest before the next show. If you were in my little town in Michigan, I would fix you a home cooked breakfast–I would make sure there was some for you all to take on the road with you–nothing like home cooked food.
Take Care and God Bless

November 8th, 2008 at 6:06 pm
Message numba 2 :
Should you ever get to my place I’d show you homestyle cooking authentic Italian style. And btw, why don’t you drop by Seattle and stop at the very first original Starbucks ? ( but you got enough invites I bet …. )
But yeah, in a way you have to be addicted to starbucks now since you’ve gotten so many starbucks giftcards…hehe…guess you got enough to last you for a year, right ?!
What to do on a tourbus without waking anyone else up ?
Sidoku, crossword, watch DVD’s, re-decorate your house (only in your mind ofcourse), play some Games… count the road signs or red colored cars passing, learn a language, read a book and plan to finish it by the week… do extreme Antiques Roadshow or extreme tea-drinking …lol
Oh I don’t really know what you could do on a bus
WHY DON’T YOU WAKE THEM ALL UP … with a bang ?!!?
Anyways, enjoy your time and take care of yourself.
November 8th, 2008 at 6:10 pm
I wish I was in that bus so together we could find quite things to do… If you know what I mean.
MOHEGAN… aaahhh… that’s the show I was going to originally, I still regret not buying tickets to that show. I hope you have a blast!
I *** WILL *** ALWAYS *** LOVE *** YOU *** JON ***
November 8th, 2008 at 6:10 pm
Hey Jon. I just wanted to say that I was at both of your shows at the Borgata. I loved both. I too missed the after party. :/ Too tired. You guys don’t know what we go through in those lines or standing areas. LOL
I was closer this time enough to notice your grayish eyes (or was that the lighting?). I tried blowing you a kiss and giving you the thumbs up. You guys are all amazing but I have to say….I have so much respect for you. You are probably one of the bravest men I know. You tough it out each and everytime you go on stage. It’s amazing how you face your fear for your fans, your friends, your brother and most importantly yourself. I gotta say, Jordan has always been my favorite but I’ve defintely have found a new love in you. Your AMZINGLY AWESOME.
Jessica.
P.S.
You have a great body, smile, and eyes….STOP SMOKING!!!!!!!!!
November 8th, 2008 at 6:11 pm
Hon,I could invite you for a Sundays Brunch … in Berlin … where I’ll be in a couple of hours *smiles*
Oh dear … a Starbucks Coffee …. this is what I call “a little heaven”
By the way … plz never ever try their Green Tea Latte …. I tried it in Chicago & couldn’t believe,how disgusting drinks could taste.
For real.
Trust me.
So … yeah,I’ve noticed the roads probs,when I was in Chicago.I never thought,I’d see/feel a “quality” like that in my life anymore… and I’m grown up in Eastgermany ( German Democratic Republic til 1989 ) …. oh dear.
Am going to bed now … may you can sleep better the following night.How have you slept after your blog posting?
Hugs & love,
a very tired Kathrin
November 8th, 2008 at 6:14 pm
JON JON JON!! how you torture these poor girls! I’ll admit I think you are beautiful too but let us in on the secret….I saw a pic of you and Harley that joe and vinnie had…TELL US THE TRUTH!! we will still be lovin you foreeeeeeeever if you do
November 8th, 2008 at 6:14 pm
Hi Jonathan,
Reading your last few entries has really got me thinking. It’s funny how perspectives shift and change as we grow older. Eighteen years ago - when I was in the fourth grade - I was in love with you because you were so cute, so famous, and so talented. Nothing else really mattered.
Now that I’m older, I’m still a fan, but for completely different reasons. Reading your blogs has helped me to better understand Jonathan the person rather than Jonathan the performer. I cannot express to you how impressed I am, and I’m sure others are, too, by your humility, your compassion, and your sincerity. You’re using your celebrity for such a noble purpose - to call on people to do their part in making the world a better place to live in for ourselves and for the generations that will follow ours. Here’s hoping that all of us find a way to rise to that challenge.
Peace and Love,
Jen
November 8th, 2008 at 6:16 pm
well i was up at that time because i was at work…lol..next time..maybe we can chat…have a good wkend and cant wait to see ya guys on the 26th of nov…lots of love

Jonathan you have to and I mean HAVE to come see us on the Jordangate08 thread. Sure some of the girls would go crazy but you have my word that I’ll be a good girl if you do show up.
Talk about tired! I was so sick last night, I fell asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow, thankfully I’m a little better today.
Starbucks is my FAVORITE and I mean FAVORITE place to get coffee, we have so many here in El Paso, Tx. I swear everywhere we look there seems to be one, more so on the west side of town, that’s where you see most of them and usually a few blocks from one another, and as soon as I see one, I literally go crazy…I’m thinking “OMG another one…YES YES!!” I’m sure you know the feeling.
Home cooked breakfast? Sweetheart I can cook anything. If you are ever in town, I’d gladly make you a home cooked meal. The best part, I’ve never once burned anything I’ve cooked…I say that with no ego, it’s just something that surprises me about myself.
Ok I wrote you a book, sorry, I guess I’m just happy that you blogged again. Be safe! Have fun! Again if you can, come see us in the Jordangate08 thread!!
Yours,
Miss Betty

thanks for the blog, Jonathan! i’m usually up early in the morning, but not today! hope you got some rest before the show-if you ever are in Austin, TX i would be more than happy to cook you a home cooked breakfast. (like you don’t get enough invites, right?) i sure do love Starbucks myself-(grande non-fat latte w/extra foam)
take care and hope to see another blog from you soon!

Hi Jonathan,
I’m sorry you couldn’t sleep better. I hope you were able to get some rest before the show tonight.
I’m so glad you found a convenient Starbucks. I don’t think I could ever start my day without my coffee, but I grind it myself at home. 
Homecooked breakfast is what we have every day at my house. Today it was waffles, scrambled eggs, sausage and orange juice. Yes, I ran the oranges through my orange juicer so that was fresh made too.
You’re welcome to stop by for whatever I have cooking at the time. 
November 8th, 2008 at 6:19 pm
Hey Jon,
I am with you about Starbucks. It was great to see another blog, I have been going through withdrawals since the Atlanta concert. I hope you decide to do another tour so all the fans can get their fix.
Enjoy your Starbucks and when I can’t sleep I meditate, but it might be hard to do that on a noisy bus.
Love ya,
Colleen

Hey JK, I wish I was in America right now. If I was I would by you a coffee. I am glad to hear that u got some sleep though, even though it was a few short hours. Still waiting for Australian dates though. Please email me at krees1@optusnet.com.au.

Hey there if i was up there with you guys I would buy all of you starbucks and then I would take you to get a really good and big breakfast. I wish i could cook you a home cooked meal but you are to far away from me to do that. I could have when you guys were in florida. By the way the show in fort lauderdale was great. Love you guys and Im so happy you guys are back together please stay together for a long time and you guys need to do another tour next year so i can get a chance to meet you guys in person. Love you guys.
November 8th, 2008 at 6:23 pm

November 8th, 2008 at 6:24 pm
You are a tease Jon…although, just to tease you back, I’m an awesome cook, and I am addict to chai lattes and those browny wedges…I like to stop at the starbucks by my house before I go into the grocery store.
Peace, quiet, birds, squirrels, good food, hot chocolate, smiles…hahahaha now I won’t be able to sleep 
Could you be anymore perfect? seriously? lol…
Prob won’t be in Guelph, ON to often eh?
Too bad for us

November 8th, 2008 at 6:28 pm
Just wanted to extend a huge THANK YOU.. to all 5 of you for making Philadelphia go crazy. The energy was amazing…I’m sure you felt it and I cannot imagine how it feels for you to be up there. You all have brought back the feelings I had as a young girl…happy, hopeful and carefree… I sang every word to every song and was 13 again. I wish you all continued success, and pray with your hectic tour schedule that you all stay strong and healthy so that I can see you all again soon…
Thank you for doing this for us..
You will always have loyal fans.
With Love and Appreciation,

I know that I can’t start my day without my AWESOME Tall non-fat, no whip, extra hot, hot chocolate (don’t do the signature…it’s terrible!).

I feel better about not going to the after party now that I know you weren’t there!!! The show was AWESOME last night (much sillier than when I saw you guys at the Izod Center in Sept). I’ll just have to meet you for coffee the next time you’re in NJ!

We missed you at the MIXX party!!! Left at 2am because I could no longer feel my feet after standing/dancing in heels for 10 straight hours!! Show was blast!!
Saw you heading to the elevators at the Borgata yesterday morning (while enjoying my Starbucks!!) but you looked so exhausted I didn’t want to bother you.
Good Luck getting some sleep- I empathize with you dear.
Safe travels!
November 8th, 2008 at 6:53 pm
I will cook you a great breakfast. Whatever you want.
November 8th, 2008 at 6:54 pm
Jon,
Enjoy Starbucks!! My mom thinks you are soo sweet!! You are her favorite!!! Is Donnie on your bus? If he is, tell him Dana says hello!!!

Hi Jon,
We don’t have starbucks in cork, Ireland, but i could make you an Irish Coffee,and a full Irish Breakfast yum! making myself hungry now. Hope all is going well for you and the lads, I bought your CD, it is amazing.
November 8th, 2008 at 7:03 pm
I hope you enjoyed your coffee! We missed you at Mixx but I’m glad you got some rest. Thank you for an amazing night! It was wonderful to meet you!!
November 8th, 2008 at 7:03 pm
you know i had left a really nice comment and its not there anymore…do you guys delete comments?
oh well till next time cause im not typing all that again lol =P
November 8th, 2008 at 7:04 pm
Okay - when you are in SLC next Saturday just stop by for that homemade breakfast! Can’t wait for the concert…my three best girlfriends from high school are all flying in town for the weekend. We haven’t all been together for 10 years and haven’t seen you boys in concert for 17 years!!! We are psyched!
November 8th, 2008 at 7:04 pm
Hi Jonathan,
I would love to make you a down home cooked breakfast. It was so nice to meet you in Ft Lauderdale. I owe alot to “TONY” your food guy, for making it happen for me. He was very nice. The show was amazing, I had weak knees when you guys first came out on stage, so many memories came rushing to me at once. I hope I get to see you again soon….
All My Love,
Adrianne

Hi Jon!
I am sooo sorry that you can’t sleep well on the bus. I was at the Borgata show last night (It was AWESOME! - my 4th one and it just gets better and better!) I HAVE to ask, what was wrong last night? Were you really tired? You did not look very well in your face and I was so worried about you. I saw Donnie trying to talk to you and looks like he was reassuring you and then it looks like Jordan was too. Are you OK or were you just tired? I remember you were hardly looking at the crowd and it looked like you kept trying stay turned around…
Wow, I would buy you all the coffee you want so long as I could have it with you!
I hope you are OK Jon and that nothing bad happened. I thought that maybe you got some bad news or were in a disagreement with someone or that something else might have happened. I just wanted to give you a hug! I HOPE you got some sleep before your show tonight and I know the roads around the east coast are AWFUL! I know I tried to go into the Mixx last night, but by 1:30am, I was sooooooooooooooo tired!!! I couldn’t stand up any longer! I hope you guys will come back to New Jersey soon because we love you sooooooooo much!!!!
Hugs, get some sleep, drink some coffee, have some good breakfast, and come back to New Jersey soon!
Feel better, xoxox
Staci from New Jersey
PS I will make you some good homemade coffee and cook you some good food if you need some!
November 8th, 2008 at 7:09 pm
I would so have yummy Starbucks oatmeal
and coffee with you. Get rest!!!
November 8th, 2008 at 7:17 pm
Starbucks sounds like an excellent idea for me right now except I’m not nearby. I did want to let you know that there is a new Starbucks rewards card. It looks like an American Express and has some nice perks…”My Starbucks card…I never leave home without it.”
November 8th, 2008 at 7:20 pm
Jonathan, you are such a sweetie!! Keep these blogs coming!!!! I can definately relate to the exhaustion. Met you last night at the meet and greet, I was lucky enough to get to stand by you in the group photo :o) I drove in from Maryland yesturday for the concert and then drove back this morning. I myself did not make it to the Mixx. I was up near the center stage toward your right, 2nd person back, and had to leave with about five songs left. I got a muscle spasm in my back (back problems from an accident), and felt like I was going to pass out. So I went out and sat down and got some water. It helped, but of course I couldn’t get back up to the front, so I watched from the back. If you ever pass through Frederick, MD (or if you need something to do when you can’t sleep) email me at pdalton0021@aol.com. I can make you a real nice home cooked breakfast and you can enjoy Starbucks while keeping me company. Well you are performing now, so have a nice show and hope you get some sleep tonight!
November 8th, 2008 at 7:22 pm
Jordan I was up at 5 am this morning too… If I was on the Eaat Coast I would’ve had Starbucks with you. But you’ll be in my city in 2 days. St.Louis can’t wait to see you guys. You can have all the Starbucks you want when you get here as well. So rest up, cause STL in ready to party!!!
November 8th, 2008 at 7:22 pm
Well, my girls & I missed the Mixx party as well for the same reasons - we were all so tired. So we grabbed something to eat and then went to the room to get some sleep. But, the show was fabulous and we had a great time!! : )
And, we had to get up & be back on the road to the DC area by 9 a.m. - and our 1st stop on the way out of the hotel was, of course, Starbucks!! Gotta have that moring caffeine kick.
I can imagine you do miss the home cooked breakfasts. That’s my Sunday morning thing. Hope you get one soon. Hope that you sleep well tonight - sweet dreams. : )
All the best,
Amy : )
P.S. And, good for you for blogging. I’m so far behind on my blogging, it’s not even funny! : )
November 8th, 2008 at 7:34 pm
You are too cute! I hope you enjoyed your Starbucks. I can’t function without my daily Americano, I wonder what your drink of choice is. I’m sorry you were up at 5am, sheesh especially after being so exhausted last night. When you are in Seattle, get your driver to take you to Tully’s or another espresso stand on the road, now that is good coffee. If you’re lucky, you might find an espresso stand where the baristas wear pasties…eek!
November 8th, 2008 at 7:36 pm
Hey Jon,
too bad I live in Los Angeles…
can we make a date at a STARBUCKS in LA? by the nokia theater perhaps?
Sorry to hear that you’re having a rough time sleeping…
I hope you can catch some shut eye tonight! you need the rest! take care
love, Eileen
November 8th, 2008 at 7:37 pm
Wow….you are so open and sweet. I am a HUGE coffee lover also, seriously, it is my lifeline. haha. I love your blogs they are so real, like you’re talking to a friend. I’d love to make you a home cooked breakfast but Mimi2’s Mexican breakfast practically made me drool, hahaha. Maybe she can cook for us both? I can’t sleep in a moving vehicle no matter how exhausted I am. It’s literally impossible, beds on a bus or not. Anyway, you’re so sweet and I fully enjoy your words. Thank you for taking the time out for us.
Love always & forever!
TK.
P.S.
YAY OBAMA!!!! This was my first election…I’m 29 but never really cared before. I cried tears of joy when they announced the winner. So glad you are fighting the good fight. Sleep sweet Jonathan.
November 8th, 2008 at 7:41 pm
You never fail to crack me up!! your blogs are too funny for words, you have such a wicked sense of humour, it’s unreal. I still haven’t gotten over the manscaping with the not so fungal growth comment. Bang goes the quiet one huh!? it’s true what they say though, you DO have to watch out for the quiet ones.
I do hope you managed to get some sleep and will you please cut back on the Starbucks, that can’t be helping!!. Try yoghurt or a glass of milk before doing to bed. Make sure that when you want to sleep that the room is as dark as possible,jump in bed and relax. Try this technique and see how you get on, Relax your jaw then your forehead and then open your mouth slightly, once relaxed work up from your toes up through your knees. Breath from your neck, down to your chest then down to your abdomen, once you are relaxed drift off to the wee place of tranquility of your choice. You will feel all your stress and tiredness wash away. Sounds crazy, but it works believe me!!, I use it on a daily basis. Any trouble, then I am available for personal tuition 24/7 ;).
Sounds like you have some good offers for breakfast there!!, I’d make you breakfast but unfortunately I’m at the other side of the world. There is always January though, stop by Perth either before or after the Glasgow show and I’ll make you all a good old hearty Scottish breakfast - Healthy or as unhealthy as you like.
Anyway, take care, travel safe, have fun and get as much rest and sleep as possible. You all have to be energised for us UK’ers btw because you all know we want a piece of you right!?!, we will be gentle though, HMV was only for starters ;). See you guys in 2009 - Manchester, Birmingham, Glasgow and London..I’m so excited!! EEK!!.
Thanks again for keeping us posted on whats happening. Also, could you please ask your brother to pop by sometime and drop us a blog or two or three..just when he’s got time
Sending much love your way
Karen.
November 8th, 2008 at 7:42 pm
I hope that you got your home cooked breakfast! If you had been in the Chicago are I would had whipped up some eggs and pancakes. I am glad to hear that there was a Starbucks for you at the casino, I hope it helped. Forgive the tardiness of my comment, I just got done throwing my 2-year-old daughter’s birthday party and it is my first time all day I have had a moment of relaxation. Got to love the November birthdays, right?! My birthday is also in November and it actually is tomorrow.
November 8th, 2008 at 7:44 pm
I just read your blog, and looking at the time it’s 9:30pm and you are already on stage again. 4 concerts in 4 days at 4 different locations, it has to be rough. I hope you are all taking care of yourselves. I would have brought you a coffee the morning you got into AC. I live in NJ about 30 mins away from AC, so the next time you are in town, please give me some notice. I would be happy to bring you some coffee.
Tomorrow is your much needed day off, so I hope you sleep most of the day away. Take care and I hope you have happy dream sleep…….

Hey Jon!
Hope that you get some sleep tonight. I am looking forward to the Tacoma Dome show, I saw a clip of you online (youtube) shooting footage of one of the shows with Danny, that was cool! Are you guys going to put out a DVD this time around?
When you come out the Washington…give me a call and we’ll hit a coffee shop ;). You can find my website online (www.carmolidesign.com)…lol. At any rate…that will give you something to check out when you can’t sleep.
So far what I am seeing on youtube of you guys is awesome!
later,

November 8th, 2008 at 7:45 pm
I’ll sure have to agree with you. They have some of the best coffee aroud and it does a damn good job keepin you awake. I work 3rd shift and live off of coffee. I also study on my down time cuz I need it to focus. Then I need it(coffee) to wake the kids up where I work. Cuz if your not woke, they will wake you up and then knock you on your ass. I work with the troubled youth go figure. However, I really don’t have anny problems out of them cuz I’m on my toes with all that caffine.
Back to Starbucks, I was so pissed when I was at the airport and they made me throw it out to go through sucurity. They damn near strip seached me with my cloths on. They randomly pick me everytime. (Go figuire I have an African last name, MBengue) So I was like telling this lady who was wispering to me how she was gonna feel on me every place she heard the beep if she just wanted me to get naked! I was like damn. She even told me to pull out my pants and show her the inside of my button on my jeans. I was #1 pissed about my coffee and then to be traeted like this was off the record. My husband was even getting pissed. The broad was doing this to me for 20 minutes with only a few sips of Starbucks at 7:00am. I was going through coffee withdraw and was being picked on too (LOL)!!!!!!!!
I was like please just let me go, if I miss my flight I won’t make it to Denver to make my connecting flight to Atlanta for the show. So she finally let me go. Typically being searched for me is normal but not like this. It was crazy!!!!!!!!!! Then I was like, the things I do for NKOTB!!!!!!!!!!
All that for them! Oh well, they are worth it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
November 8th, 2008 at 7:50 pm
hey handsome, you can make me breakfast anytime
lol i hope you get your coffee fix and get some rest soon!
counting the days down till seattle!! woootttt!

Dude, Jon there’s a Starbucks on just about every corner I’ve seen since 2001. If you’re gonna have a habit, Starbucks is a good one. lol.
November 8th, 2008 at 7:56 pm
Did anyone meet you at Starbucks? I hope they paid!
November 8th, 2008 at 7:57 pm
Hey Jon,
Thanks for writing. I am glad you labeled your blog “Starbucks”. I saw it at the end and thought it was Jordan since you labeled it “JK”. I am glad you found a Starbucks. I hate bumpy roads too, it feels like I’m on a rollercoaster, don’t like those! I’m not a morning person, but if you want to make me breakfast, hey, I’ll eat what you make me. I really miss you guys here in NC. I went to the Charlotte show on October 30 and you saw my FACE TIME sign in the crowd (it was a home made watch)! You pointed it out and laughed!!!! I really hope you come in my next of the woods next tour and even to my hometown of Greensboro!! That would be even more awesome!!!! Keep these blogs coming!!! I hope you guys have fun on the rest of the US tour. Don’t forget to write us when you are in the UK!
November 8th, 2008 at 8:01 pm
your are the cutest thing I have ever seen!!! I make a mean bacon, egg and cheese sandwich. I feel bad that you can’t sleep. I am usually awake at 4 AM too. What do you have to say at that hour. We can chat if you are awake. Jumping around and dancing doesn’t make you sleepy every night. Yell at me!!
Kisses and hugs,
I can’t wait for your next blog!

Now you are just teasing us! Not fair! I think there a few of us who be more than happy to hang out and make some breakfast and drink Starbucks! Come back to Vegas!!!!!!!!!!
November 8th, 2008 at 8:04 pm
Hey Jon, my bed isn’t bumpy at all, unless we want it to be, lol. KIDDING!! Safe travels and see you on the next tour!!
November 8th, 2008 at 8:05 pm
You poor thing! I bet you are all exhausted. You have all been going non stop, almost a show a night since June. And when you aren’t doing a show, you are traveling to the next one. Hopefully you got a good cup of coffee. I have personally learned to love Dunkin Donuts coffee more then Starbucks. Sorry to all you Starbuck’s fans! Put a dollar in the machines for me!!! Or do you play the tables? My husbands FAVORITE game is Craps. I can’t ever understand that game. Hope you had a good show tonight!
November 8th, 2008 at 8:08 pm
Hope you enjoyed your Starbucks “fix”, Jon!
Their ginger snap latte is my new fave! Yummy! Hope you were able to get some more rest…
November 8th, 2008 at 8:10 pm

Hello Darlin’
I am willing to cook breakfast three times a day, seven days a week for you if that’s what you wanted- Alas, you haven’t sent for me yet ;o) I suppose you’ll just have to pretend I’m there cooking till you do
November 8th, 2008 at 8:14 pm
Awww man!!!!! I would have met you at Starbucks if I had known! Of course, that is a long, long drive from Iowa.
Maybe next time? LOL!!!
November 8th, 2008 at 8:15 pm
HI Jon
I am glad that you got some sleep.I am sorry that you woke up and didn’t get enough sleep.I hope that you get a nap in before your concert.You need ear plugs or something so noises don’t wake you up.I think I have been to starbucks like ones or twice.Can never afford it.
I would make you homemade breakfast if you were here in Wisconsin.I made my oldest son pancakes for dinner tonight cause that’s was what he wanted.do you like breakfast for dinner?I am not a morning person but I would get up for you any time to make you breakfast.what is your favorite breakfast food?I hear you about the roads,seems like it is same here they spend money on who knows what instead of fixing the road,and when they do they spends weeks,months fixing them and we have to deal with those annoying rerouting.ok complained enough.put my 5 cents in if you will lol.
I hope that you get a nap in and have a great concert.You are doing awesome.love you take care.Hege
November 8th, 2008 at 8:17 pm
Hello Sexy Man!! Meeting/hugging you last night was my girlhood dream and adult fantasy come true!! I hope you were able to use the Starbucks free coffee card I gave you. As I said … even famous people like free stuff.
Thanks for the great show and wonderful memories.

Jon, can’t wait to see you in St Louis Monday night!!! My best friend and I have been singing vintage New Kids for the past 2 months in anticipation. Our parents denied buying us tickets when we were 13 and now we are old enough to fend for ourselves. If you hear 2 girls screaming “Sing Have a Funky, Funky Christmas!!!!” in Section 108, Row Q that would be me and my B.F.F. Candice. See you soon!!

Hehe…well just let me know what “Starbucks” you’ll be at on the 26th of November and I’ll stop by with some Carl’s Jr. or (BK…we do it your way…haha)breakfast for two!
November 8th, 2008 at 8:29 pm
Jon-
Seriously, you’re killing me. I spent four years of my life behind a Starbuck’s espresso machine. How is it you never walked into my Starbucks? I no longer am serving up the siren’s brew, but I can fix your cup of nectar from the Gods at any time. I’ll be your personal barista. I might even have an old apron somewhere if that’s what turns you on. Hey, whatever works.

I still think about the manscaping comment and don’t look at John Deere the same way lol.I wish I can give you some of what I have.I can sleep about anywhere and sleep heavy.love your sense of humor and hope that one day we can meet and I can show you what a dork I can be.I can dream can’t I lol
Love you forever,please take care of yourself and get some sleep.

November 8th, 2008 at 8:35 pm

November 8th, 2008 at 8:36 pm
JON,
This is my first time leaving a response and I had to log in three different times!! I guess computer skills do not improve with age! I am not a coffee drinker but I love the fresh brewed iced tea from Starbucks. Hope you guys have a great show in AC tonight-I am a Jersey girl but couldn’t make it to the show-2 weeks from my wedding day and very stressed! I did catch you guys at the IZOD Center in East Rutherford-great show and I hope to catch you guys again before the end of the tour. How do you function on such little sleep??
I guess it’s all that Starbuck’s coffee you drink!
Love,
Amy
November 8th, 2008 at 8:42 pm
I’m not sure which ‘JK’ posted this blog…Jordan or Jon…but it doesn’t really matter bcuz ur both awesome as far as I’m concerned!!! Sorry u can’t sleep…and if anyone needs it their sleep…it’s u guys!!! I can’t believe how many shows u all r doing!!! It’s INSANE!!! I was at the concert in Ft. Lauderdale on Nov. 1st and I have to say…IT WAS AWESOME!!! I waited 18 long years to see NKOTB in concert and u guys really came through in a huge way. I was left wanting more. I was supposed to see u in concert back in 1990 at the Joe Robbie Stadium (now called Dolphins Stadium) in Miami, FL. but unfortunately I wasn’t able. It was a long wait…but I kept the faith and hoped NKOTB would someday make a comeback and I could FINALLY go to a concert. Well, I did finally get to see u in concert and it was the BEST night of my life!!!! I wish I could relive it every night!! So, PLEASE come back to South Florida sometime soon for a meet-and-greet or a concert or whatever. I don’t care why you come…just come!!! I need more face time!!! Hey, what do you guys do with all of the footage you have of the audiences from all of the concerts??? Just wondering…Anyway, I hope u enjoy ur Starbucks…and if u were here, I would definitely cook breakfast 4 u!! LoL. Yeah, like that would EVER happen!! God, if it did I’d probably die of a heart attack!! =) Can’t wait to see you all again. It’s been great and I’m so glad all of you decided to do this one more time. You made the right decision!! You’ve made me and all my Blockhead sisters VERY HAPPY!!!
Tha Block 4eva!!!!
Much Love,
Tracey

Me and my girl friend didn’t stick around for the party though… had a long drive back to NY!
But the trip was sooooo worth it! YOU GUYS DIDN’T DISAPPOINT!!!!
We’re such big fans…
She’s seen you 3 times already!
And this was my 2nd…
My first was when you performed @ MSG (what was that… a couple of weeks ago?)
HAHAHAHAHA
It just keeps getting better and better!!!!
AHHHHHH… i just wanted to say I LOVE YOU GUYS!!!
You ROCK ;D
AND I LOVE YOUR MUSIC… i hope you make more albums… seriously!
Ok i’ma go now! LOL

November 8th, 2008 at 8:44 pm
Hi Jon,
you guys are amazing. Hi Jon,
I LOVE all the blogs from you. I can only imagine the rush that starbucks had after you wrote this one. If you are ever in Northern California, Mountain View, to be exact, PLEASE stop by my starbucks. I would love to make you your perfect drink. Thanks for the beautiful smile in glendale, the show was amazing.

Aww Jon, you are the best blogger!
Hope you get your large iced coffee with cream and 3 splenda!
(Thanks, I have a new fave drink now)
xoxo
November 8th, 2008 at 8:48 pm
I hear you Jon, Starbucks is a must have. You guys kicked ass in AC last night, great show even if you were tired! I was tired too up for 22 hours and I did not make it to MIXX either
November 8th, 2008 at 8:57 pm
Honey,I’d have coffee with you all day long if you wanted. It’s so good to hear from you. I’ve been waiting all week to hear something from you guys. It’s good to hear from you and I’m sorry you were woken up so early this morning. I’ve never been to New York, but I can only imagine how the roads are! I hope you have a wonderful show, and get some good rest tonight!
November 8th, 2008 at 9:05 pm
John, the next time you’re in Toronto, I’m across the street from the Air Canada Centre. Please feel free to come to my house for sleepy time tea and a nice warm breakfast.
If you can’t sleep next time on the road YouTube Russell Peters…great Canadian comic, you’ll wake up the whole bus howling.
Toronto misses you! Thanks for three shows! Love you guys always.
November 8th, 2008 at 9:11 pm
I do not know how you all can possibly stand the constant motion of the buses. I hope you will have enough energy to stay up and hang with the fans after the concert in denver. I cannot wait!! Drink some starbucks for me (the pumpkin spice is rather good) xoxoxo
Amy Jo:)
November 8th, 2008 at 9:18 pm
If I lived near there I would have been at Starbucks in a second!!! (what is your favorite Starbucks beverage?) And you definitely would have gotten a home cooked breakfast
As for the roads…I completely understand! I grew up in CA and I still don’t like earthquakes or waking up to any type of shaking! Our roads need work here too. Anytime my friends and I head to Reno, Nevada for a weekend getaway we know when we have left California and crossed into Nevada because the roads are so much smoother! Must be all the money they make from the casinos! Jon, I hope you have a better night tonight….{{{HUG}}}
November 8th, 2008 at 9:21 pm
Oh Jon, I’d love to sit with you & chill @ Starbucks (give me a sugar free vanilla latte’)…sometimes I’m there with my mug & a good book (I’m currently reading the last book in the “Twilight” series—movie out on Nov 21). I really miss you! I last saw you in the MotorCity on 10/25. What an INCREDIBLE show! Was ready to see you in Salt Lake City, but plans fell through…have a great show! Enjoy many Starbucks visits!
November 8th, 2008 at 9:22 pm
Hi Jon. Hope you were able to get some more rest before your show this evening. I don’t know how you all do it!? Anyway, hope you had a fabulous show. I will see you all in Calgary at the M&G on the 19th. Hopefully I can get a pic with you this time- Montreal was crazy!
On your way to Vancouver, stop in Nelson, BC and I will take you all out for coffee at the best little coffee shop in BC- Oso Negro! Five Americanos to go please!
Safe travels!
Nina
Nelson, BC
November 8th, 2008 at 9:26 pm
I am so excited!!!!! I think I may be flying to San Diego to see you guys on November 25!!!!!!!!! It is crazy because of all the obligation I have, but I am going to see the New Kids on the Block!!!!! I am so excited, I feel like I am 10 years old again! This is crazy, I can’t believe I am doing this. I have not even checked to see if tickets are available, god I hope so. Love you guys!!!

November 8th, 2008 at 9:33 pm
The smell of Starbucks at the Miami airport was the first thing I noticed when I stepped off the plane from Trinidad. Can’t wait to meet you in St. Louis! It’s been a long time coming!

I really like reading your blogs, Jon. It’s like hearing from an old friend. I guess in a way, you are.
I’ve always been a Danny girl, but I have to admit that lately you’ve been catching my eye…(shhhh, don’t tell him! lol) Anyway, if I had the pleasure of making breakfast for you…I could make you some pretty mean pancakes or biscuits or anything your heart desires. Wish I could see you at Starbucks!!
I hope you get some decent sleep and have a safe trip to see us here in the midwest. I’ve been waiting patiently….it’s almost time!!!
November 11!!!!! Kansas City!!!!!! It’s our turn!! See you there!!
Much love from the Heartland,
Always,

November 8th, 2008 at 9:40 pm
Hey Jonathan!!!
Since your ordering I will take an Iced Mocha with Hazelnut and whipped. My treat when you get to Utah next weekend! You def need to get your rest!!! I hope the roads from the East coast to Utah are less bumpy and that you actually get some sleep! I can’t wait to see you again and hey there’s an IHOP close to the venue in Salt Lake!!!
See you soon…6 days to be exact!!!!
Safe travels……Much love, Mwah!!!!!

November 8th, 2008 at 9:48 pm
Jon, You so deserved to be tired. I don’t know how you guys do it. TRULY AMAZING. I saw you (and even met you) at the Philly show and then decided I didn’t have enough and went to the show at the Borgata. Yeah, we were disappointed not being able to see you at the AFTER PARTY. It was a good time. The DJ was absolutely amazing. Thank you and the rest of the guys for such an amazing experience. I hope our paths cross again one day. I also hope we have more time to spend together. You guys are so down to earth and easy to talk to about things. I wasn’t nervous at all. I felt like we were LONG TIME friends. You all seemed impressed that I was all about asking how you guys were doing, but I just didn’t know how else to show how much I care about all of you. You all have a special place in my heart. Enjoy your day off tomorrow. Get some sleep. Take care.
November 8th, 2008 at 9:49 pm
Hi Jonathan, I live in Rhode Island and I saw you in Providence and the show was breath taking but to answer your question to having a home cooked meal, I can say that I love to cook and I can make a mean breakfast, lunch and dinner because being raised in a Portuguese, Italian home you have to cook from scratch and not from a box that’s just the way it is. Love Always, Dina. dinapc@cox.net
November 8th, 2008 at 9:49 pm
Hey Jonathan!
I know you said you’d try to make it there but i knew you were tired at the M&G yesterday! I’m so glad that you managed to get sleep despite being awoken to bad roads!! We missed ya at the Mixx nonetheless:)
about homecooking…When, er i meant if, y’all do a summer tour and are in DC or MD…y’all are welcome to stop by for some filipino dishes:)
thankyou for making my last 5* memorable! oh i send you a message about that “gift”. totally didn’t think bout the contents til after i handed them to the ilaa but thanks for helping me to get them to you:) i can’t believe yesterday will be the last time in a while but let me say, the entire roadtrip experience absolutely perfect and went beyond all expectations!
See you soon!

November 8th, 2008 at 10:03 pm
Jon,
You are becoming a pro at these blogs now! You are too funny. I can only imagine how tired you are. I’m glad you got some sleep after the show last night. Sorry the bumpy NYC roads woke you up so early today. I hope you enjoyed your Starbucks! If I was there, I would have met you at Starbucks! And good home cookin is my specialty.
I hope you guys had an awesome show tonight. Have a safe drive to St. Louis. I can’t wait to see you guys on Monday! If you guys need a place to watch the Celtics game tomorrow night, let me know. 
Because I’m gonna be watching it!
See you Monday! I can’t wait to get a hug!
Love ya,

Hi! I’m missing the show, it was great. It’s got to be crazy doing the same thing night after night. Thanks for doing it. Thank goodness for the pictures I have and the clips on YouTube to get me through withdrawal.
I love my starbucks too. The kids get vanilla milk or hot chocolate and I get a nonfat mocha latte. GOOD stuff.
I hope you feel rested at some point today and get to take a break on your day off, enjoy.
Hugs, Gloria

Hey Jon, I know the feeling of needing something to wake one up.I agree those pot holes can be a pain along with those toll road things too! I’d make breakfast but I don’t live on the East coast. Oh well! Hope you and th rest of the guys are having as much fun out there as we the fans have been. Get some sleep! Reading works!
Love to everyone!

November 8th, 2008 at 10:19 pm
Jon! So excited to see a blog from you so soon after last nights show! I was there.. my 3rd show (Borgota, Philly, Borgota.. and still yet to meet you guys!).. I was worried when I saw you left the stage a few times last night..so I’m glad you’re ok today
I was tired too…I couldn’t make it to Mixx either between having work all wk, standing in line to get as close to the stage as possible (but not close enought!) and screaming my lungs out at Weds show!
I hope you got some rest tonight..Maybe some time I’ll run into you at an airport or a Starbucks…. and we can have a chat.. forget all the pics and autographs.. I’d just like to sit down and talk to you all about anything..travels.. life.. work (yes, I love my job working with children that have autism)….
Well maybe if I’m super lucky, there will be some indication on your blog, that you actually read my lengthy blog message! Hope to catch you all in concert.. MAYBE.. JUST MAYBE 1 more time.. and do the meet and greet..(although I heard it’s only about 5 minutes.. just enought time to set up a time to meet for real conversation!)
Love,
Susan
November 8th, 2008 at 10:20 pm
Hey Guys,
I was in love with you guys when I was young and thought that it would be great to see you again in concert here in the ATL. My girlfriend and I went to see you and we are more in love now then we ever were. So we are leaving the kids and hubby’s home to come see you guys again in UT. We have never been that far from home so this will be an experience for the both of us. You made us realize that we can still have fun and enjoy life again, sometimes you get caught up in just growning up. The best thing about being older and you guys touring again is that we are old enough to make our own decisions on how much money and time we want to put into our love for NKOTB!! Waiting to see you perform again!
The Girls,
Rachell & Liz
November 8th, 2008 at 10:23 pm
you know you are just askin for it when you tell us to meet you somewhere, haha. oh and the breakfast, yeah you’ll just have hundreds of girls in cookin aprons with breakfast waiting for you at starbucks. you’re such a tease! and we love it. but hey, instead of teasing, why don’t you make one of us ladies the lucky one just once? start with me
November 8th, 2008 at 10:24 pm
I’ll be glad to cook you breakfast, lunch, dinner or a midnight snack or anything else you like! I’m flying from Houston to Salt Lake to catch your show again. One wasn’t enough. Let me know if you’re up for a good home cooked meal in Salt Lake. I’m hispanic, so I’m used to cooking for a big group!
Love ya! Hope you get some rest! I’ve seen the tour calendar, and I see you’re getting very little time off. Make the most of it.
XOXO, Annette
November 8th, 2008 at 10:29 pm
Hey Jon,
Wish I had been there, I would have bought you coffee for you. Other than being tired, which I can’t even imagine I hope you and the other guys are having a wonderful time. I guess you are looking forward to the month + break. I can’t beleive the North American tour is almost over. I am very sad that I only got to see you guys once and that I had no VIP. I so want to meet you all! Hope there is some truth to the rumor of a summer tour! I am there!! VIP and all. I have waited 18 years to meet you.
Take care and try to get some sleep

Oh Jon, I love hearing from you. We wouldn’t know it by looking at you that you don’t get the sleep you want. You have so much energy on stage! I hope you all are taking good care of yourselves while you’re on the road.
Love you all madly,

planning on coming to NY again soon!?
LETS GET THIS!!
November 8th, 2008 at 11:05 pm
HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My friend, Elissa and I have been huge New Kids On The Block fans for a long long time. Last summer when they announced that you were coming back and going on tour I seriously all but pee’d my pants… ok I maybe pee’d a little. Seriously the New Kids were everything to me when I was young My friend and I fell in love with you like all pre-teens did with The Right Stuff video. Donnie and Jordan were my favs although I must say WOW you’ve all matured nicely. Early last summer in Portland, Oregon the buzz started I stayed glued to my house all week listening to 105.1 The Buzz trying to win tickets. I didn’t care what kind of tickets as long as I got to see the New Kids On the Block. Monday came and went, Tuesday came and went, Wednesday came and I got on the radio, thought it was to win New Kids tickets and ended up winning tickets to the Zoo. I turned them down as I would have to forego the chance to win the New Kids tickets for the following day. What were the chances of actually getting on the radio Two days in a row??? Zero. Well I gave them up and tried the next day…. I won the 2nd row tickets the very next day!!!!!! Cried like a little girl. You should hear the recording from the radio station. So embarrassing. I called my friend who was in class at WSU Vancouver she screamed in the middle of Lecture and had to leave class. It was a dream come true as my parents were too “frugal” to buy tickets for me when I was younger. They were everything to me. A couple months later we were able to pick the tickets up from the radio station and made a day of it. Needless to say the tickets went into a fire proof safe. We were excited! The next couple months I was busy planning for my wedding and dreamed about the concert at night. The next months were celebrated by “New Kids Nights” and following everything on the internet and T.V. about them. My faithful New Kid fan Elissa and I would drink champagne and watch New Kids Videos. We actually have been doing that throughout the years much to the chagrin of our parents and boyfriends. She is my New Kid soul mate. A couple weeks ago she texted me in the morning saying “you’re gonna poop your pants”…….. I called her only to hear they cancelled the concert for Portland. We were devastated. We found out the reason was they got offered the chance to perform at the American Music Awards. As an avid NKOTB fan I absolutely support that. But, We were heart broke and remain that way to the day. No rescheduling for Portland! I can’t afford tickets once again in my life with the economy the way it is. I never wanted great tickets, it was always the chance to even go.
IT GETS WORSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My faithful New Kids Partner was diagnosed with Melanoma stage 4. She is only 29 years old. She has sought treatment and since then has had surgery for another malignant spot on her leg. Her name is Elissa Bush and her and I have been friends since we were 5 years old and we are now 29. We’ve been through first boyfriends, first kisses, first heartbreaks, auditioning for American Idol, and funnily enough for me… first husbands, and now CANCER!
WE JUST WANT TO SEE NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK! At some point in our lives. It’s been 18 years please help us to find a way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Please help if you can in any way. No T.V. no hidden agenda , no first row tickets necessary, just an opportunity to see NKOTB.
PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SINCERELY,
Catie Bethune

Hi jon I was just wondering if donnie got a teddy bear with a black leather hat on it and fake roses in providence on the 6th my 4 year old daughter bought them with her own money and wanted to give them to donnie personally but the security at the dunk took it and said they would give it to him she was very upset and thought they were stealing it I just want to reassure her that he got it
November 8th, 2008 at 11:12 pm
I bet you are getting sick of being on that bus and not snug as a bug in your own bed. I know it must really suck at times but THANK YOU SOOOOOOO MUCH for taking one for the team and joining the guys on the bus… it wouldn’t be the New Kids without all 5 of you… I’ve been a Donnie’s girl since I was 12 but I care for all of you and wish nothing but a safe and fun adventure for all of you… Can’t wait to get my scream on in 3 more nights… Kansas City!!! If your still in need of a great old fashion breakfast I’m the country girl that will fill that belly up… home-made biscuits, gravy, eggs (any way u want them) you name it I can cook it!!
Take care and BE safe,

Hey,
Hope you got your coffee…..and a nap before the show.
Didn’t make it to Cleveland but drove about seven hours with some friends (Jennifer and Brian) and my oldest daughter, Justice, finally getting to see you all in Philadelphia after waiting eighteen years…..just missed you when I was twelve.
Interestingly, turns out yours’ was the first concert I’ve ever been to…..and it was totally awesome! Live is so much better than TV.
I’m not known for being real outgoing but once I figured out I wouldn’t be seeing those folks again and didn’t care what they thought…..I screamed, danced and sang my heart out. I think I embarrassed Justice (13), a little. {big grin
} Made sure I cheered especially for you, whenever they showed you up on the screen by yourself. I just kept thinking, “I finally made it.”
I remember seeing how people cried way back when, well, I almost cried and felt like I was gonna faint when you all first came out on stage. I told myself, “You’re not one of those girls.”…..when I finally “let go”, the cheering helped and I’ve felt great ever since.
Thought it was sweet to see the look of joy and amazement on your faces…..Jordan especially seemed touched.
Well, you all take care of yourselves…..I seem to remember reading, a long time ago, about you sleeping 24 hours once when you got home.
Later,
Chrissy

Hi Jon!
The MIXX after party was H-O-T! My friends and I still can’t believe how good the DJ was and that Jordan, Donnie and Joe stayed for awhile. Donnie even planted a big kiss on my friend before leaving the club. All eyes were on her that night. It was her birthday and he really made that night special for her.
Needless to say it was an unforgettable time the Borgata. Wish you were at MIXX!
P.S. The Borgata show was the best one I’ve seen so far. All of you looked like you were having so much fun. Take care and enjoy your late night Starbucks runs

Hey Jon! Sorry about those bumpy roads…that’s no fun! Anyway…I hope you are feeling more rested now! Speaking of Starbuck’s…..I hope you got your “free” Starbucks tall coffee on election day, for voting! There was a long line at the Starbucks where I live….all for free coffee! Who could pass that up?! I’m sure you are happy about the results of the election! (-:
November 9th, 2008 at 1:27 am
Couldn’t sleep,’eh?? That happens to me a lot, takes a while for me to unwind from work as well. At 5am East Coast time, I was probably up here in CA, give me a call. . .hehehe!! Glad you found ur Starbuck’s–a white chocolate mocha sounds good right about now!! Oooo, and breakfast any time of the day is ALWAYS GOOD. . .yum–swedish pancakes, belgium waffles, eggs, bacon, hash browns. . .Am I making you hungry yet?? J/K!
It’s so nice of you and the guys to Blog about life on tour and just random thoughts. . .ur fans love you all for that! Thank you for letting your us be a part of this great experience.
Take Care, get some sleep and sweet dreams!

November 9th, 2008 at 1:33 am
A “home cooked” breakfast sounds so good right about now. I just got home from a fun night out with my friend and I have so much energy! There’s no way I could sleep now even though I should because it’s 2:33am CST. I hope you were able to get some rest though and enjoyed your coffee. If you ever make it up to the Frozen Tundra (aka Green Bay, WI), drinks are on me!

mmmm… starbucks! unfortunately I have developed a starbucks addiction. The good part is that I do not get latte’s anymore so I have cust my habit cost in half by only getting a brewed coffee with cream and 2 splendas. I just can’t drink anything different… it just isn’t the same
November 9th, 2008 at 2:16 am
So I just saw my 3rd show tonight and you guys rock. All I can think about is taking you all home (Woburn, Ma). Thats all… I love you guys.

November 9th, 2008 at 2:24 am
Aww, Jon I totally understand the sleep issues! I have bizarre sleeping patterns too, and like you I can never sleep while traveling. Wish I was there to make you some breakfast (well actually you probably wouldn’t want anything I cook, cause I tend to burn everything lol) but I’d be willing to bring my husband who can definitely cook some fantastic pancakes and eggs!
Luv ya,
Laura (who’s unfortunately still stuck in Indiana)
November 9th, 2008 at 2:51 am
Sorry! You lost me there Jon! I’m not a coffee person, nor have I been to Starbucks. Enjoy though! Hope you get sleep… and me too!! lol
November 9th, 2008 at 3:00 am
Good God, Jonathan! Your blog was the first thing I read as I was getting ready for church this morning! LOL… What a visual to wake up too
And a distraction at church! LOL
Home cooked breakfast? Your blog made me go to the supermarket to get bacon, two types of vege for salad, croissants and bread! When I got home, I was like, mmmmm… who am I gonna cook this for?? LOL…
If you’re ever on this end of the world, I’m ready to cook (even if you bring the other 4! LOL)
Hope you get some proper sleep soon! Last night was the 1st night in 1 week where I actually got more than 2 hours sleep, so I understand how you feel (though you look so much hotter, unlike moi who looked like a raccoon dragged backwards through the bushes! LOL). Get some proper food too okay.

This have nothing to do with your blog but I have to say…
I never knew you and the nk’s were in a German movie!
I just saw the trailer for it today.

HI Jon,
it is a shame that I am not in the Staats, was awake and could have been company… well, if you feel like hanging out in Starbucks in Germany, just let me know I join you… and I tell you where they are, not that many around.

Ciao Jon!
“hello how you are sweet with a capable other woman to flirt?…”quotation
When had you been on Hungary? If not when you are expected?
I do not like to go to a casino, to have coffee at it rather. But it is possible to have coffee better in a park…..
“At home where the heart is” - how did you take this?
the happiness thing with many senses, yourself find it happy partly at least? Success, at home…..
How seeing on you is not you happy, why? yourself feel it alone?
I read your blog, your answers always, likes that you answer the questions sincerely.
I saw you once, you were missing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello Jonathan! If you think, we send you some real hungarian foods. I don’t know “Starbucks”, but I think they have a good black coffee with milk/cream and sugar/sweetening. I send you it mentally.
Try to relax.

Greetings from the united kingdom….i awas on my way out for lunch at a quaint english pub, but saw your blog, so couldn’t resist to write a few lines. Hopefully you will get to catch up on some sleep. I really appreciate any blogs written by you… short or long, answers or no answers to all the questions. You will be happy to know, there are so MANY Startbucks(es) in London, so when you come over, you will able to get your fix….also be sure to try out Cafe Nero…another coffee shop here, they are a chain like Starbucks and really good…. well i think so
…you probably know all this from coming here before…so excuse the boring information….
By the way…not many toll booths here…but lots of narrow roads in the cities
happy travels jon…. can’t wait to see you perform soon
love
sharmila…(sam)
P.S Do you have a favourite book that you have read?
November 9th, 2008 at 5:45 am
If you come to argentina one day If you come to Argentina some day,I”ll be so glad to make a good argentinian home cooked breakfast for you!!!!!Take care Jon, try to sleep,and plesa never change, you”re a great man!We love you…Maria

Hey Jon,
I feel I’ve gotten to know you a little bit better through your blogs, thanks for keeping us updated. Quoting Joe “If you have half of your enthusiasm when it comes to blogs & give it to your brother,” it will be greatly appreciated. I’m keeping my fingers crossed for an Asian Tour, hope we get our FACE TIME too. Always take care guys & get enough rest. Enjoy Starbucks!

(shock and horror!!! :-))Can you believe that all the others closed!! I hope you guys come down!!! i’ll even volunteer to take you to all the beaches and cool sites of Sydney!!(wow! what a sacrifice!! LOL) Anyway take care and good luck with the rest of the tour!!

Yeah I would cook your breakfast not a problem. It must be hard to be on a bus day in and day out it would be very tiring that is for sure. I know that when we drive to my Dad’s for a visit (only 1 hr and 1/2 away) I am glad it’s just that distance so I can only imagine how tiring it would be on you and the rest of the guys and then having to do meet and greets and tv shows, radio etc yeah it would be tiring and it’s like you guys never get any down time so I feel for yas. Just a bit of comfort we appreciate you guys coming back on tour with a new album and doing what you are doing. We drove 8 hours to see in Montreal and it was the best concert I have ever seen and I have seen Mariah Carey, Celine Dion, Boys II Men and I saw you guys back in 1990 in Toronto and I have to say that it was the BEST concert ever! Hopefully when you guys take a little time off in Nov/Dec you guys can get some much needed rest for the next leg of the tour. My offer stands if you want a homestyle big country breakfast just email me. lol but really if you want to have piece and quiet come to Lincoln New Brunswick Canada and I will cook you up so breakfast. My only fee is you sexy brother oh yeah and shirts are optional for you two ha ha. thanks. Julie (POJK)
November 9th, 2008 at 6:34 am
Jon,
Thanks so much for a new blog. A ‘HI’ is just as good as answers LOL… I can’t make it to Starbucks buddy that’s a bit of a drive for me. However! If you guys ever roll through close to my neck of the woods, no need for in house food or take out. Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner whatever you want!
I love it when you guys just check in to touch base with us, keeps us involved nicely! Me? I have been up all night working my tail off at work, now I am sitting here impatiently waiting for my hubby to get up so I can go to bed.. He’ll be up around 3 pm and it’s 8:30a NICE huh?
Anyway, massage offer still stands (I asked that question but you likely didn’t get to it yet and Auburn Hills is long past gone now) Just say the word babe *wink*
I love Starbucks though, so if I bring you an Ice Coffee it gets me in and I get to meet you right? LMAO j/k *would be nice though*
Anyway this is turning into a novel and we all know I am good at those seeing as I have already published one and working on another!

Hi Jon!
(but you must know that I’m not very good at cooking! So you may run a risk when eating it 
)
It’s a pity I didn’t read your message before, otherwise I would have flown from Paris to NYC
Now I think it’s too late to make you some “home cooked breakfast” but if you want, I can send you some Italian meal by thought
Hope the road won’t wake you up again and thanks for being so thoughtful with us, you’re a great person
Take care

November 9th, 2008 at 7:08 am
Good morning Jonathan! Hope you got a good nights sleep last night. Met you Friday night at Borgata. It was the best night of my life! You were so funny and sweet. I thought your were suppose to be the quiet one, but like me you have to watch out for the quiet ones :o) Someone posted yesturday that you looked like there was something wrong with you at the Borgata show, and I noticed that as well. Hope everything is ok. I just wanted to give you another hug. Just remember we all love you. I was in the second row to your right at the center stage.
If you ever pass through Frederick, MD I would be more than happy to make you a home cooked breakfast. Keep the blogs coming they always put a smile on my face. Take care.
November 9th, 2008 at 7:25 am
Wow,I’d love to make you some homecooked breakfast!But that will always be a dream of course…I’ll make it for my 2 kids every day.
To bad I don’t live in the states,I would dropped everything and drive immediately to starbucks!
I love your blogs,keep them coming:-)
I have a (weird)question for you:Do you know how to cut the toenails of a rabbit?
I haven’t done it before and i’m afraid to hurt our lovely bunny.I definitely need a man;-)for these things!

Hi Jon,
I don’t think my last reply was printed so I will try it again. You guys were AMAZING fri nite. I had 5* and was in the last group to meet you. I was nervous all I kept saying was “thank you for coming back” I felt like a dork. I was sooooooo happy I got to give you all a hug. You guys make everyone feel so comfortable. Like your all just friends that havend’t seen each us in awhile. I am just trying to process everything in my head. I waited 20 years for this. I knew someday my dream would come true. I just wish it lasted longer. I have great pics and unforgettable memories.
As always “THANK YOU”
Take Care

November 9th, 2008 at 7:38 am
Good Morning Jonathan!
I wish I lived on the East Coast too, not only would I cook you whatever kind of Breakfast you want, but then Id be joining you at Starbucks! Im glad youve finally be able to sleep on the bus but sorry you missed the afterparty. Yeah I hate those stupid strips on the road, they make it hard to sleep but thats the point of them. LOL Well have a great show and I cant wait for the summer tour. Yeah I know this tour isnt over but I wont be seeing you guys anymore on this one, so Im ready for the next one. LOL
XOXO

PS Vegas and Houston were great.
PPS Jon, how much cologne have you used? =D
November 9th, 2008 at 7:42 am
2 WORDS…
YOU’RE ADORABLE! : )
November 9th, 2008 at 8:00 am
Hey Jon,
Wow, its funny that the last time around many of us fans were not even old enough to make our own breakfast and only drunk juice or milk - and here we are today offering to buy you Starbucks and make you homemade breakfast! When you come to London I will glady cook up something for you, but may have to come around for breakfast earlier than 5a.m as I sometimes leave for work around 4am! (I kinda understand being exhausted after a long day)
BTW, I think you should have woken Danny and Donnie to cook you something - I have seen several clips of them learning to cook whilst being interviewed!
Please take care of yourself and rest whenever you can, you need your energy for your wonderful Booty Dance. Thanks for keeping in touch.

November 9th, 2008 at 8:03 am
Dear Jon, you’re getting into blogging now…good! Still waiting on your answers
I’m glad you got your Starbucks fix hope you enjoyed it, such a bummer you keep being woken up on the road…it’s the lifestyle of the rockstar hehe! I only wish I could have joined you but I’m in UK…hey shall I find out where the nearest Starbucks are when you come for UK tour for you? Take care…..Honor x
November 9th, 2008 at 8:03 am
There is!! I was there, but I didn’t see you! You guys put on an awesome show last night!!! Muahhhh. xo
November 9th, 2008 at 8:25 am
I would cook you a good breakfast Jon. How about bacon, eggs, fried potatoes, sausage, gravy and biscuits? Just come to Tennesse it will be hot and waiting for you. Hope to see you again soon! Atlanta was HOT!
November 9th, 2008 at 8:44 am
Starbucks Cafe Mocha! Coffee and chocolate … best of both worlds.
Thanks for stopping in Providence. The show was fabulous! Well worth the 15 year wait!! Brought me back to the good ol’ days. Best of luck with the rest of the tour. Come back soon!!!!!
November 9th, 2008 at 8:51 am
Hey Jon, it’s nice that you take the time to do blogs every so often…I just want you to know that your Tampa show was awesome! Hope you were able to get your starbucks “fix”.LOL…And I look forward to seeing you all soon!! About the breakfast…I could do great breakfast for you..southern style..if only you could make it down here to Bradenton, FL!!!!
Have a great day!
November 9th, 2008 at 8:53 am

November 9th, 2008 at 8:59 am
Was at the show last night….I can’t tell you how amazing it was. Wish I was there early in the morning and would have taken care of your bordom, and breakfast.
November 9th, 2008 at 9:01 am
Well, since I live in Puerto Rico the “cooking a home-made breakfast” for you is not an option (bummer!) hehe. But enjoy a big, enormous cup of Starbucks coffee for me! Take care sweetie!
P.S. You guys need to come to Puerto Rico ASAP! Lots of fans praying for a concert down here!!!!!!!! Love ya!
November 9th, 2008 at 9:16 am
Ya know Jon, I am a Starbucks addict myself, so I totally know about the “there is a God moment” when you that beautiful green and white sign indication that revival is only a few minutes away! What is your drink of choice?

November 9th, 2008 at 9:19 am
I hope they have some good coffee in Amsterdam coz thats where im going to fly to see you guys.. But if they don’t have any.. you are always welcome in Israel.. we have great coffee.. you guys should come and try it
November 9th, 2008 at 9:24 am
Your album is great!! When are you guys coming back to NY? I tried to get tickets to Mohegan Sun but was unsuccessful.
I was so happy when I found out that you guys were coming back for a reunion. I hope you will add more concert dates & meet & greets. Would love to meet all of you! 
November 9th, 2008 at 9:25 am
Ah Jon…love ya! Im glad you were able to find a Starbucks! Can’t wait to see you in 10 days!
November 9th, 2008 at 9:33 am
See, first you cancel Albuquerque concert, now your teasing with having a starbucks coffee in the wonderful presence of Jon Knight???? just shoot me now! Ugghhh!
well i guess you have already had your coffee fix, so the last thing to do now is COME TO ALBUQUERQUE!!!!! WE HAVE LOTS AND LOTS OF STARBUCKS HERE!!!! Well hopefully you dont jump over us or cancel five days before the concert next time around….love you!
November 9th, 2008 at 9:34 am
Must confess that I’ve never actually been to a Stahbucks. I know, blasmphemy, right?! There are only a handful of them here in Brissie though. Our alternative is called The Coffee Club, and those are every-fricking-where. I’ve made a vow to go out of my way and hit a Stahbucks sometime soon though, just so I can try their iced coffee. They should start paying you, you’re good for their business!
Sorry to hear you’re not sleeping well. I’ve always been a raging insomniac myself, (and quite frankly it’s only gotten worse since I started staying up, glued to New Kids related stuff online, thank you very much :-p). It’s 2:30am here right now and I’m wide awake and snacking on a bowl of Cornflakes. You want some?
I’m sure you’re all looking forward to December when you’ll be able to take a short break from touring…sleep in your own beds…rest the aching muscles…take it easy, and catch up on many hours of lost sleep.
You’re all working your arses off and I dunno how you keep doing it night after night. I’m sure there must be an adrenalin rush when you’re out on stage, but the rest of the time you must be exhausted. Thank you for all the hard work and long hours you’re all putting into this tour. Not just the 5 of you, but everyone else who has a hand in keeping the show on the road as well. I can’t wait for you all to head down my way, (hurry up with some Aussie dates, dammit ;-)), but until then I’ll be following you all online. And with that, it’s about time I hit youtube again!
lotsa love
Joann (Brisbane, Australia)
PS. Please don’t feel the need to apologise for not posting part 3 of your answers yet. ‘Tis true that it’s eagerly anticipated, but the main thing is that you look after yourself, so whenever you have the motivation and the time to post, we’ll all be right here waiting.
November 9th, 2008 at 9:44 am
P.S. and for future reference, McDonalds iced coffee is way awesome! and cheaper then starbucks! hopefully there are both where you guys are. Get some sleep, it does not do my heart good to see sleepy bags under your alls eyes.
missed you lots in Albuquerque, NM, hopefully you have enough energy for at least one more tour, and THEN come this way, i have all the “hot hispanic home cooking” waiting for you FRESH! Whatever your heart desires….give us a chance, we may not be one of the “richer” states to fill stadiums that you guys are used to playing in, but if we were good enough to play here when i was eight, then just think of what we grew up to being?????? Just a thought… while you are awake anyways…right??? take care love!
November 9th, 2008 at 9:47 am
I’m dying to know how many people actually showed up at the starbucks there to greet you! Had I read that, and been in the area earlier than I was, I would have been! sorry I missed you. I hope you enjoyed your coffee! When coffee doesn’t work, try a red bull. That got me home safely after the Mohegan Sun show last night: 2.5 hour drive at 3am…you guys are 110% worth it!
Love ya!
Erin
November 9th, 2008 at 9:52 am

sorry to hear that you can’t sleep….I have the same problem right now, (my father-in-law passed away)………If you are up to trying something, Melitonin works wonders, it’s all natural.I hope you get plenty of rest before you guys hit Canada, (Vancouver) I sure wish I could be there to see you guys bring down the house. I was at both your concerts first time round, they rocked. Well Hope you can get some sleep…………………from your sleep depravated fan bbygirl23
November 9th, 2008 at 10:20 am
Joey-
I only wish I knew you needed Starbucks, I would have brought you one! Last night was perfect. The Meet & Greet was so cool, I can’t wait to do it again. The show was even better than the last one! Thank you all for this tour, and hopefully you’ll come back to CT soon!!!
November 9th, 2008 at 10:20 am
U’r sooooooooooooooooo cute!!!!
November 9th, 2008 at 10:21 am
I don’t know what I would do without Starbucks, I always make it a point to find a Starbucks in the area whereever I go, that’s why I love New York!
November 9th, 2008 at 10:25 am
Hi Jon, Hope you get to read this
I heard there might be some big historical event here in January…you taking part? 
I really wanted to thank you for being so sweet.
I was at the M&G in Atlantic City (I came in with the last group and was an absolute nervous wreck, crying and shaking, you might remember….. Cause you don’t get that a lot I bet, huh?…lol) well you were so sweet and nice to me. Thank you for the all the hugs, you even tried to introduce me to the rest of the guys…unfortunitly we were rushed out of there, so I didn’t get to meet everyone, but you were a dream come true.
Hope you make it back to D.C. sometime
Best wishes….
A friend and fan…..ALWAYS!!!
love,
Leila Vega
November 9th, 2008 at 10:27 am
Hi Jon, I met your friend at the concert last night and he took some pictures. Can you ask him to send them to me on line. Maybe this will help, the girl with the silver pants at mohegan sun. He was a real sweetheart and I had a great time with him. I don’t want to say his name on here though but he said he showed you my picture so maybe you will know by that. By the way you guys rocked last night. Thanks for the great concert and tell your friend thanks for such a great time.
Jill (AKA… silver pants girl)
November 9th, 2008 at 10:27 am
You guys were completely amazing at the casino last night. No words can describe what I felt before, during and after the show. Thank you so much for getting back together and letting us feel all the excitement we felt 15 years ago. Life has gotten much harder since then, shit is always complicated. But last night, none of that mattered. It must be the best feeling for you guys to know that you do that to thousands and thousands of people. I hope you feel it. Good luck with the rest of your tour and I’ll be back to see ya’ll again. One Love from CT ~Regina

Hi Jonathan,
Everytime I see a Starbucks now, I think of you! You’ll be pleased to know that we have them in England too, so you won’t have to go ‘cold turkey’ when you come over here LOL. I loved reading about you crashing out! I did the same thing Friday night. I was supposed to be going out with my family, but I came in from work and went flat out asleep on my bed! The next thing I know, my Mum turned up at my house banging on the door. She tried phoning me but I swear I didn’t hear it. She had to let herself into the house in the end to wake me up! I had about 5 minutes to get ready!
Thanks for keeping in touch, its so nice to hear from you. It always puts a smile on my face.
Take care
Love, hugs ‘n’ kisses

Come on over, I make a mean pancake!! Not so good with coffee though but there is a Dunkin Donuts around the corner. Would love to have a conversation with you about real estate, I have always been interested in it. Would have loved to drive down to Mohegan and seen you guys, you were awesome at the Garden, just couldn’t do it. Maybe next time if you tour again!!! Look forward to reading your next blog, Tricia
November 9th, 2008 at 11:06 am
i know how it feels i love starbi know how it feels i love starbucks coffee and need 1 of those everyday
November 9th, 2008 at 11:10 am
Ok, so I never thought I’d actually leave a message on a blog, but somehow I found myself reading this, and Jon you are just the sweetest, most normal person. I’m married, but have a best friend that would love to meet up for a coffee. Let me know the next time your back in Boston and I’d love to introduce you :o)
November 9th, 2008 at 11:15 am
What is the type of drink that you get when you walk into a Starbucks? Also, I want to let you know that I had an amazing time at the San Antonio concert! And the next time you are here I will treat you to my neighborhood Starbucks!
November 9th, 2008 at 11:22 am
hi guys,
I don”t know where to begin but to say thank you for an amazing night at the borgata I was at the izod center & msg but this time my friend got us the 5 star package and it was a dream come true. After suffering a major tragedy on oct 19th ( my 18 yr old cousin drowned in a horrible accident upstate NY) I wasn’t sure I was going to make the show my heart just wasn’t there and then my friend reminded me how happy you guys make me! So being there and meeting you was a great escape from the pain you put a smile back on my face and the hugs helped too ;)!! My only dissapointment was being rushed and not being able to have my cd signed or get some pictures but hey maybe next time!!! So thank you, thank you, thank you soo much!!
loving you forever,
jen
November 9th, 2008 at 11:23 am
I just love when you check-in…. and simply tell us your thoughts. Great show at the Borgata!!!!! Hopefully you are getting some sleep.
With Much Love to NKOTB
November 9th, 2008 at 11:41 am
Jon- I would make you a “home cooked” breakfast any day!!! Gotta come back down to Tampa…and we have a TON of Starbucks, too. The concert here last week was awesome!!
Love to all of you!

Hey Jonathan!!
I’m a Timmy’s fan myself….but I do like Starbucks once in awhile….BUT I totally understand the need for our “fixes”.
I’ve travelled many many times by Greyhound to pick up my younger boys from their dad’s and know full well what you mean about the rumble strips….sheesh. However, I’m sure it’s quite more comfortable to sleep on your tour bus then it is on a Greyhound….although I won’t be experiencing that adventure alone or in any uncertain terms with my boys since the summer’s tragedy up here in Canada…you’ve heard about it, I’m sure?!!? If not, I’ll tell you about it….eeek…so not a good thing!
ANYHOW…over yonder in Jonathanland…I am your JonVolunteer #77 and have been given the “duty” of being your Breakfast Cook….I am (if I do say-so myself as do my kids and fiance) a great cook…so whatever you need/want just let me know and I’ll make to order!! ;0)
Loads of Love; Melanie aka JonVolunteer#77 aka Breakfast Cook :o)
November 9th, 2008 at 11:58 am
I really understand how you feel when it´s time to get up and all you need is a good coffee!! So i hope you got it and enjoy the next ride a little more.
November 9th, 2008 at 12:06 pm
My sister works at Starbucks. I get it for free:) and that is great cause you can spend 5 something a cup.
Jon I’m a night owl I’d love to keep you company!!. I’m usually up til 3am. It is my time alone while my son is sleeping. Last night I was up alittle later but I pay for it in the morning when my son gets up 10 or so.. but you can’t beat time alone..I’d go crazy otherwise.
November 9th, 2008 at 12:07 pm
It sounds like you need a personal chef & a masseuse to travel with you. I’m an awesome cook (toot toot) and I give the greatest massages….and the best part….I’m available to start immediately:)
I know you are such a tease though
saree29@yahoo.com
November 9th, 2008 at 12:22 pm
Well Jonathan, I guess I’ll have to go back to the US, and follow was left of the tour, to see if I can find you somewhere out there.
November 9th, 2008 at 12:32 pm
Mornin’ Jon,
Hope u slept well. Keep the posts coming. LUV YA!!

Aw man i really feel for ya…don’t get me started on toll roads and speed cameras! And just think, you’ve got both to look forward to when you come over to England!! On the plus side, you won’t run out of Starbucks in Manchester…
p.s. tell Donnie that we don’t have Waffle Houses but we do have an awesome ice cream parlour…!
November 9th, 2008 at 12:39 pm
Jonathan, I was up there last night. I wish I knew so I would have stayed to buy you coffee and chat. I live 1 hour 1/2 away from Mohegan, in Stamford. I stayed a while in the casino to see if I could get some “Face Time” with you guys but I wasn’t lucky. This is my second concert and I’m loving it more and more. You guys rocked last night.
Angie
November 9th, 2008 at 12:40 pm
Hey! Good thing you are coming to Seattle soon! Starbucks is everywhere! My friend and I took a little vacation and just saw you guys in Ft. Lauderdale and Tampa. We had so much fun that we got tickets to the Calgary show. We had so much fun at both shows! We were joking that night that it was one of the best nights of our lives…but in talking to other people that have seen the shows it seems that everyone feels like that! I think it also helped that we got to meet you before both shows too
I’d offer to cook you breakfast too, but I wouldn’t want you to get sick
We got the 5* VIP tickets to Calgary and Seattle, so we’ll see ya in a couple of weeks!
AL and LB
November 9th, 2008 at 12:42 pm
So sad to know I missed you…no breakfast at that Starbucks, but it is where I had a quick dinner. Yall were amazing last night!
November 9th, 2008 at 12:46 pm
Jon, i love you and the guys. i saw you for the third time this tour at borgata and it was better than ever. u guys were in such a silly mood, we all loved it! i was also at msg in 1988 on thanksgiving! best time ever. there was a starbucks in the borgata which my friends and i went to several times throughout the day waiting around so we could be front row. wish we saw you there. just want to thank you for coming back, especially you, u are making so many people happy and feeling youthful. altho im 29 which is not old, i feel like a 10 year old and its great. u guys are amazing and i hope you realize how important this long awaited tour is for all of us.
gina (hope to see you this summer!)
November 9th, 2008 at 12:48 pm
Hey Jon
I love hearing from you! You sound like alot of fun! I’m sorry that your not able to sleep more. Unfortunately I’m uable to make it to Starbucks it’s a long drive from Toronto hun and by the way I tryed there Ice Coffee one day the way you drink yours and it didn’t last too long cause when I got to work I placed it on my desk & I was telling my manager it waswn’t too bad.. All I did was leave my desk for 5 mins. When I got back the iced coffe was half gone!! My manger and other co-worker tryed it and I guess decided to drink only half!! LOL.. As for a home cooked breakfast!! No problem any time I’d even cook breakfast ITALIAN STYLE for you & the rest of the guys too!
Take care and try to get more sleep..
Julie
November 9th, 2008 at 12:49 pm
I doubt you’ll read all the way down to this one but Jon, I love reading your blogs, and I love how you share everything with us like where you are and what you’re doing etc! Makes us feel so involved with everything!
Love you all and see you in Manchester and Sheffield (5*) in January!
xx xx xx
November 9th, 2008 at 1:07 pm
Good lord, Jon, you sound just like me… everywhere I go - hotels, airports, anything… first question… “Is there a Starbucks?!” And if not, then… “Where’s the closest one?!” If I ever run into you in one, your drinks are on me. Wait a minute… you’re the big famous singer… my drink will be on you, how’s that? *WINK* Kidding.
November 9th, 2008 at 1:30 pm
Hey Jon! Thank you for blogging! I waited at the Mohegan Sun Starbucks for my girls before your concert. Every November I looked forward to their Gingerbread latte! It gives me the Holiday feeling. Last night was my fourth and final NKOTB Concert for this year and it was beyond amazing! For the first time out of all 4 concerts you looked anxious on B Stage, I hope nothing was bothering you! You guys were amazing however you look as though you are working too hard for little old us! Take care of yourselves. If you are ever in Concord, MA I would gladly take you for a coffee and a nice walk around Walden Pond and just listening to your voice. Be safe on the rest of the tour we will miss you in New England we have been spoiled the last three months.
Keep in touch!

November 9th, 2008 at 1:33 pm
Well the Starbucks Boost must have worked. You guys KICKED A** last night at Mohegan Sun! I have NOT seen such a well-produced show - live or televised - from an artist in a VERY VERY LONG TIME!!!!!! To quote: They tried to keep you down but you just came right back. *POOF!* I hope you all are making a DVD for sale. All these young up-and-comings need to see how it’s REALLY done!
In case you do a second wave of the tour (or spot dates) and add of the Biloxi/Gulfport, MS casino arenas to your lineup, there is a Starbucks in the Hard Rock Cafe and Casino as well as on Pass Road, one of the main roads perpendicular to Highway 90. But down there, a place called PJs is better. But if you are in the mood for a latte or specialty drink, Starbucks can be found.
November 9th, 2008 at 1:34 pm
Hey Jonathan,
Ct is only 3 1/2 hours from where I live. Wish I could be there so you can buy me a Chai Latte. :O)
By now, I hope you got some rest. I was at the Borgata concert on friday and before I left around 1:45am, I couldnt help but pass by the starbucks there to see if you happen to miraculously be there. LOl.
Nice to hear from you. Thanks for another blog.
love&hugs,
Suzette

P.S.
I know you were in NYC awhile back to see a broadway musical. You should watch ~SpringAwakening~ on broadway. Its one of my favorites. Ive seen it 8 times in the last year. The show will end on Jan 18, 2009.
Check it out http://www.springawakening.com
November 9th, 2008 at 1:39 pm
I was at your show at Mohegan on the 8th…WOW you guys are amazing still!!!
November 9th, 2008 at 1:59 pm
The coffee worked you guys were awesome!
November 9th, 2008 at 2:06 pm
Hi JON,

November 9th, 2008 at 2:09 pm
Can’t wait to see you guys tommorow night in St.Louis!!! It’s kinda funny, 3 years ago my mom who’s 32 intoduced me to your muisc, and immediately I was fascinated by you guys. Since then, I’m 15 now, I have met Joey (my favorite) at the Dancing with the Stars tour in St. Louis last year, and have all your cds on my ipod and Joe’s and listen to Joe’s cd “Talk to Me” pretty much every day. I can’t believe that you guys are giving me the oppurtunity to see what I never gotto see in the 90s. I promise,I’m not the “crazy fan” who’s going to stalk and do the crazy things my mom’s friends did when you guys came into to town. But I do appreciate what you are doing for a young fan like me! Thanks soo much!!
November 9th, 2008 at 2:24 pm
What a girl wouldn’t do to cook you guys a home cooked breakfast!!
Do you ever stop at Cracker Barrel? It’s a close second to a stop at a crazy fan’s house.
Take it easy!
November 9th, 2008 at 2:26 pm
Jon Jon Jon,
Oh what a fibber you are! I may not have seen this blog until later in the day but you know full well there were a couple of girls waiting for you when you arrived at Mohegan. I was the girl waving from the driver’s seat of her minivan. We (myself and the two gals I was there with) would have gladly shared a cup o’joe with you. But alas we kept our distance so as not to invade your private time and you played peek-a-boo with us from the front of the bus. You are too cute!
Next time I will get out of the car and invite you over. I’m kicking myself now!
The show was GREAT!! I had an amazing seat for the B Stage and I want to believe that one of the times you pointed, smiled and waived in our direction was aimed at me. It will help me sleep during these cold winter months coming up without a New Kids concert to prepare for!
Can’t wait for Summer 2009!!
Jessica (the one with OCNKD!)
November 9th, 2008 at 2:26 pm
You lost me at ‘…getting out of my sweaty show clothes.”
November 9th, 2008 at 2:27 pm
Jon- from Denver to SLC if you guys travel I-80 there are starbucks along the way so you wont miss out!! And the road isn’t so bumpy so maybe you can get some sleep! Hope you guys don’t run into any bad weather I know the snow is will be here soon! So don’t forget to stop at every stop along I-80 if you need because it might be hours before you see another town!! (just a bit different from the east coast)
November 9th, 2008 at 2:35 pm
blah, blah, blah…. I can say whatever I want because none of my damn comments are getting past “moderation”!!! My email is customized for my business and is probably dropping into some SPAM folder… Happens all the time… too bad no one is truly monitoring your site… hahahaha…
AN is still crazy about JK!!!!
I have been working too much, must be going crazy… I am truly pissed about this; I never allow my feathers to be ruffled. If this reply happens to get through, look for my other comments… They are in the black hole called Web Press/NKOTB/blog….
November 9th, 2008 at 2:43 pm
Oh Jon!! Honey!! I admit I don’t cook much but what I can cook…mmmm.
You want a home cooked meal than you gotta come join me and my family for dinner!!
For Breakfast I’ll make scrambled eggs (or how ever you like), grits, biscuits and gravy, hashbrowns, with some bacon or sausage.
Lunch well, that’s a simple meal.
But DINNER!! Ooooo How about Homemade, straight from scratch Southern Chicken n Dumplings!! My Great-Grandmother’s recipe!!! Takes all day to cook, but boy is it worth it!!! I can toss some salad, rice or pasta with it and there you have it!!
Best part is! I could send a lot of the extra with you! LOL One batch makes enough to last a week and than some! hahaha
Sadly though I don’t live in the South anymore, so you would have to see me when you get to Colorado this coming week!
lol
Otherwise, have a great day and I can’t wait to see you guys on the 14th!!! WOOHOOO!
November 9th, 2008 at 2:51 pm
Hi Jonathan,
You must be counting days till you have your holidays in December. Hope you will be ok and be able to come back here in UK in January. I can not wait to see you in Birmingham!!
Kanako xx
November 9th, 2008 at 2:52 pm
Hello Jordan, Joey, Danny, Donnie, and Jon
Thanks to YouTube, I’ve been able to see what a great time all the fans are having at the concerts. I thought I’d be able to go to your MSG show or the Borgata shows. Thanks to my doctor that wasn’t able to happen because I had knee surgery. :{
Totally sucks!!
Had the cutest little outfit planned. You know a girl has to look good.
I just hope I get the chance to see this great event again the next time around. So, for now I’ll say God Bless and enjoy this ride.
Lots of Luv,
Enola
November 9th, 2008 at 2:58 pm
Hey Jon….
I was a the Mohegan Sun concert last night and I must say you guys were amazing.
I saw you guys way back in 1991 at the Saratoga Raceway, that was the concert where Donnie fell through the stage, and I thought that concert was amazing, but last night’s blew the roof off. You are sooo amazing. You have been my favorite new kid since way back when. I just wanted to thank you and all the other guys for coming back. Brings back a lot of emotions hearing hte old songs again.
Any chance you guys are going to come to upstate New York???
November 9th, 2008 at 3:14 pm
Hey Jon,
i know how you feel, my 6 month old son wakes me up at 5.00 and i forgot to drink some coffee,so in the middle of the day i was not myself.If i have no coffee i´m so finished aspecially when i have not much sleep.Thank god we have coffee.Take good care and i wish you much sleep and sweet dreams.
See you in germany.
November 9th, 2008 at 3:21 pm
HI Jonathon,
Thank you for checking in with us. I love to read your blogs and imagine you on your bus! How many of you are in one bus?
when you come to LA in a few weeks, feel free to spend the night and I’ll cook you breakfast!!
Luv ya,
Violet Knight (LOL)
November 9th, 2008 at 3:28 pm
Hy Jonathan,
A Starbucks nearby is always good news so early in the morning
Remember Vienna is ready and waiting for the show,for an amazing and great night with all of you guys!!! Yes Vienna in Austria/Europe next to germany is still waiting for dates !!!
Yours
Martina, Vienna,AT
November 9th, 2008 at 3:32 pm
hello Jon!
If you are interrested by a typical french breakfast: you are welcome in Burgundy any time ! …If you prefer to have lunch or/and diner it is ok too!!
Hope you will be able to have some rest.
Take care
Christelle
November 9th, 2008 at 3:33 pm
Jonathan and guys! I loved the Philly show! I had never seen y’all live and it was AWESOME!!! Mohegan Sun is an awesome place! I lived near there for 3 years and saw many concerts there. Lost some money too, that’s another story. Definitely check out the Krispy Kreme, I do that every time I am there. Starbucks has become a new found addiction for me. I wish Atlantic City was a little closer, I would love to feed my other addiction, NKOTB. Hopefully you guys will tour again next summer. You know we will come out again in full force. Keep up the great work!! Happy early Birthday!
November 9th, 2008 at 3:36 pm
Hi Jon!!! If I were there I would so make you a wonderful home cooked breakfast!! I would also bring you a nice starbucks!! You are so CUTE! I heart you!! I hope you got enough rest last night! I can’t wait to see you in LA!! I am going to give you a HUGE hug!!=0) I will see you soon!!
Love ya, Marie
November 9th, 2008 at 3:42 pm
Hey Jon. If when you’re in St. Louis, my hubby makes a mean breakfast. Come on down to KY for some cookin. Our home is always open for ya’ll.
November 9th, 2008 at 3:48 pm
HI Jon, Do you like BlueBerry pancakes. I made those this morning. I would be happy to entertain you guys with a homemade breakfast or dinner. Look me up when you come through Raleigh/ Durham NC. I would be delighted, Our secret.
November 9th, 2008 at 3:49 pm
Hi Jon! I was at the show Friday night, and of course you guys were amazing! I work at starbucks so when you roll through New York again come visit Staten Island! I would be more than happy to make you a cup of coffee! Have a great night!
November 9th, 2008 at 3:52 pm
You guys have worked so hard. Show biz is not easy. Break a leg and come back to San Jose! Question for YOU Donnie. You were really taken back at the fact that (at the time 10/7/08) that San Jose had the loudest croud yet. Were you just saying that? Or was that really true?
Thanks for all your hard work Men!

November 9th, 2008 at 4:11 pm
Hi Jonathan!!!!!
It´s a pety, because in Ny I was in Starbucks for breakfast. And I can say that I love the hot chocolates to this place!!!! I took a lot of hot chocolates in ny and the best was in the starbuck. I know that the most famous is the coffee but I don´t like the coffee out of house.I like it with veeeery milk. 
We have Starbucks in Spain but in Bilbao not.
“home cooked” breakfast? What do you want for breakfast? If you want, come to Spain and I´ll make your breakfast every day if you want hahahaa. It´s a joke
In concert at MSG I couldn´t say you anything hahahhaa. And I am so sorry…I was in shock.
Only smile and a intense hug. The M&G and the concert were the cherry in the cake for the trip to NY.
Jonathan. You are very crazy!! Hahahhaa.
Do you take decaffeinated coffee? Can you sleep at some time in your life? I wait longingly for the third part of your answers. Especially my sister Beatriz78. XD
A lot of kisses and good and sleep well.
P.D.: Sorry sorry for my very bad english.
November 9th, 2008 at 4:31 pm
I heard that some starbucks got closed down In Pa
November 9th, 2008 at 4:41 pm
I wish that I would have been able to meet you at Starbucks!!! As For homemade breakfast, lunch, or dinner, the next time you are in Ohio me and my girls will cook you the BEST food you have ever ate!Promise!!! You are so sweet and I hope that you get your well deserved break soon. YOU have earned it!! How many men do you know that can say they satisfy 20,000+ women a night and have them wanting to come back for more? None that I can think of other than you, Donnie, Danny, Jordan and Joe. Lol;)
Love always,
Angie
P.S. Still volunteering to make home movies with you!!!
November 9th, 2008 at 4:43 pm
Jonathan,
I LOVE these little glimpses of the true you. I don’t think that you seem like an egg kind of guy to me…you seem more like a biscuit and gravy kind of guy…I just happen to make great biscuits and gravy. If you ever decide to come to Cincinnati, I would be more than happy to oblige! As I’m typing, you are prob getting ready to go on stage…have a great time out there. Hopefully, you will get a better nights sleep tonight. I sure wish I could have been at the show…any of them!! PLEASE come to Cincinnati! Cassie
November 9th, 2008 at 4:48 pm
btw Jonathan…one more reminder…the sunglasses do look great, but please don’t hide those sexy, oh so expressive eyes! Cassie cassie4cincy@hotmail.com
November 9th, 2008 at 4:53 pm
Hey Jon,
I would Sooo make you a homecooked breakfast!! I hope you enjoyed your starbucks!! Tell Jordan & the other guys I said Hello!!
Love You All!!!

Good God Jon…out of all the Starbucks in the U.S…..it had to be there?!?!?

Be safe dude, talk to you soon….

November 9th, 2008 at 5:14 pm
Well at least you’re getting some sleep. If you got the lavender tea I gave you in Charlotte try it. I’m always up for cooking a good home cooked breakfast. Just name the time and place.
November 9th, 2008 at 5:50 pm
The concert at Mohegan was awesome! Nothing compares to Boston, though. Glad I attended both. Sorry I lost all my money at the craps table!
November 9th, 2008 at 6:03 pm
Anytime you make it to or through Baltimore, I’d be more than willing to cook you a nice breakfast!!!!Try to get some rest, I have see you twice this tour and I leave exhausted so I can only imagine how you feel!!!!!!
November 9th, 2008 at 6:19 pm
Jon, I wish I had known that prior to me being there yesterday-would have gladly bought you a cup of coffee. I have been a big fan of you since I was 16. 20 years later you guys were better than ever-keep it up. Out of all the concerts I have seen this one @ Mohegan was your best-worth the 3 hours it took to get there.
November 9th, 2008 at 6:27 pm
Hey Jon,
I missed you at Mixx on Friday. I saw Jordan and Donnie, but of course I was no where near them. Anyways, I had a great time at the after party, but I did miss seeing you, Danny and Joe. At least you were getting a bit of sleep, so funny that you are happy that Mohegan Sun has a Starbucks. Next time you come to NYC or NJ I will join you at Starbucks. Anytime you are in NYC and you want a home cooked breakfast, let me know. It’s my favorite meal to cook :)!!!!!! Take care sweetie and be safe.
November 9th, 2008 at 6:32 pm
I could be like everyone else and tell you that I would make you some breakfast or treat you to Starbucks, But I won’t. I will just tell you what an inspiration you are. I too suffer from depression and anxiety. I know how bad I feel when I am at my worst, I can’t imagine being in your shoes and suffering the same things. I do hope that it is under control for you. I would not wish those feelings on anyone. Keep putting on the great shows.
Liza
November 9th, 2008 at 6:40 pm
Just reading about the “party” you slept through makes me tired. I know you guys have so much to do before and after each show, day in and day out. Wow to be “on” all that time. I’m tired just writing about it. Hope that coffee helped. Keep it up, know the fans love it and apreciate it. I know I did. Meeting you in Tampa, FL was a dream from 18 years ago. Hope you guys do this again next year. Another tour would be GREAT.
November 9th, 2008 at 6:42 pm
Hello Jonathan,
xoxo
My best friend and I were at the Mohegan Sun show last night…after the show we weren’t ready for the drive home so we decided to hang out at the bar (with the water fountain) with our water and diet cokes! Sitting there, we happened to meet a nice guy (your friend) named Eric, he is from RI..He had the green backstage pass around his neck along with his friends…then in came YOUR BROTHER, who is nicknamed Knighty? He was quite the treat, I am betting on a rotten hangover this morning!!! I DO HAVE A QUESTION, did NKOTB prohibit signs from being brought in to the shows?? Please, please answer this question, it’s important to my friend. We so wanted to just meet you and Donnie, of course it didn’t happen…pretty much impossible I guess. Question…starbucks or dunkin’? Debbie
November 9th, 2008 at 6:46 pm
I will tell you that I would love to meet you at starbucks. Thank you all for doing the New Kids thing one more time. I hope that there will be more music and tours. I love you all. Always have and always will. I am wondering why Joe is wearing his watch on his right hand? I think that he is right handed, correct? I am also wanting to know why Jordan does not wear a wedding ring? Keep the good music and shows coming.

Hey JOn, Just missed you by a couple of hours apparently. Saw Donnie and had a great night at Mohegan. Kept checking Starbucks for you…but I have to tell you, as a New Englander you should know DD coffee definitely is better.

Hi Jon,
Glad you found your Starbucks. At least it must be comforting being able to get your favorite drink no matter what city you’re in while on the road (well, for the most part anyway).
I can relate to the lack of sleep thing. As much as I don’t know firsthand what sleeping on a tour bus is like, I guess you’ll never know firsthand what being pregnant and trying to get comfy enough to sleep with a huge stomach, horrible heartburn and having to get up to pee every 20 minutes is like
I’m so tired too…but your blogs always make me smile and brighten my day
Thanks!
Love you,

Hey Jon!! Thanks so much for a wonderful experience at AC.. I was too tired to go to the MIXX after-party as well.. I was actually at the Meet & Greet at the Borgata (I was the one that told you that I saw the NKOTB concert at Great Adventure when I was 10 years old).. Thanks so much for giving us NKOTB fans the opportunity to meet you guys.. I went to 3 of your concerts this year and hope to go to more.. I’ve been to the first Borgata concert in September, MSG NYC on Oct. 27th and the the Borgata concert that took place on Friday.. You guys ROCKED THE HOUSE.. I had front center seats (thanks to the 5* MEet & Greet)..You and Jordan are my faves and I’m so greatful that you guys came back for a reunion.. I’ve been a fan for 18 years.. Thanks again and I wish you the best of luck on your Mexico and Europe tours.. I hope to go again!
Happy early Birthday again….

Hi Jon! I live in Seattle, just a few blocks away from the original Starbucks down in Pike’s Place Market. Can’t say I’m a Starbuck’s fan since I can’t help but trip over them here. I’m more of a Cafe Vita (small chain here)girl myself. What amazed me was your ability to actually post a blog without first having had your morning caffeine. I certainly wouldn’t be able to do so much that early without a cup already in me.
November 9th, 2008 at 7:59 pm
Well I am not the greatest cook, but if you were in Alabama for some God forsaken reason, I do make some yummy chocolate gravy and biscuits. It is a southern thing if you have never heard of it but don’t knock it until you try it, lol. Plus I am a licensed massage therapist, so you can kill two birds with one song, cause i know ya’ll have to need an lmt after riding on that bus lol, ya’ll take care.
November 9th, 2008 at 8:01 pm
hey its kristy im probably ur #1 teen fan haha i went to ur concert in september when u first came to mohegan . it was the first concert i ever went to and i was so excited it was ur guy’s concert. well pretty much i just want to thank u for getting back together and making an amazing album. and as for the whole starbucks thing goes u should order a vanilla frapacinno with whip cream and chocolate shavings haha. its the best, well take care and keep the rolling submarine going strong
November 9th, 2008 at 8:04 pm
Hi Jon!
This is my second post on this blog entry, but I had no idea where I could put this comment so if you wouldn’t mind forwarding it to Jordan, I’d appreciate it! I looked up his album roster on Amazon.com and wanted to say that his cover of “Drive” on his “Love Songs” album is incredible! Gave me goosebumps. Also, his album “The Fix” is FABULOUS. Did it get a limited release in the U.S.? I would love to buy it but Amazon doesn’t have an affordable copy..
Just to reiterate that I am so thankful that you guys have come out with a new album and in the process of attending 3 concerts on the east coast,
the reunion tour has reminded me what an amazing performer/singer your brother is and I wish him a very long and successful music/singing career.
Much appreciation to you all.

What am I doing blogging AGAIN!
I wanted to let you know how I get to sleep at 1200 when I feel hyper enough to clean my entire house….
if you have a lab top bring it to bed with you and play gem shop or bejewelled….
very boring games but will slow your mind down….
then when you eyes feel heavy do progressive muscle relaxtion…
After that try not to think about how fast the bus is going….
think about me instead….
no really I’m perfectly serious….
November 9th, 2008 at 8:08 pm
Jon,
I was in AC for the show Fri. Amazing!! Too bad you didn’t stop by the Tropicana. We had a Starbucks and I would have been more than happy to join you. It was great to see you guys again. Saw you back in the day. It only gets better.
Much love,
Tracy
November 9th, 2008 at 8:13 pm
My dear Jon,
I’ll cook anything you want with all my love;). You just have to come to Tampa again:).
Love you,
Erika:)
November 9th, 2008 at 8:21 pm
Hi Jon,
Hope everything is going well!! Let me know if I can buy a starbuck’s coffee when you’re in Mexico City. I love frapuccino. I can’t wait to see you guys.
November 9th, 2008 at 8:21 pm
Okay…So, I’ve never done this before….But, I just wanted to let you know not to worry when you get to Denver…There is a Starbucks right down the street from the Broomfield Event Center
Can’t WAIT for the show! See you on Friday night!!!!
November 9th, 2008 at 8:22 pm
Hey Jonathon,
You would NOT WANT me to make you breakfast. I once set water on fire…no lie. Anyway I want to thank you for Body checking me last night after I bumped into you! You made my day lol! Next time you are back in town we can have a play date for out doggies!
~Katie
November 9th, 2008 at 8:50 pm
Sorry — tried our best to stay up. Made it to 5:30AM (not bad after an 8 hour drive from Ottawa!). Wanted to say that you were great & sweet at the Mohegan Sun meet and greet!! You got my friend & I a pic with you from the right photographer - - shuffling us past the Celtics photographer - LOL!
Much love - kim.
November 9th, 2008 at 8:51 pm
I must agree with everyone else.. Starbucks.. necessity.
Also wanted to add that I saw you guys November 6th in Providence, Rhode Island. Just wanted to say awesome show!! It was wicked awesome!! My aunt that came with me and who introduced me to you guys all those years ago, she said that this performance out did the show saw twenty years ago. We had a great time Hangin’ Tough!! (That was my favorite part!)
Thanks again for a great show!!! It was worth the wait!!
And as it was said that night, “This love will last forever!!”

Awww… Jon, you are the best. Mixx was a Blast. Don’t feel too bad, Danny didn’t come either
It was great talking to you @ the airport today. Feel better & get some rest 
Big Hugs & Thanks Again 
November 9th, 2008 at 9:03 pm
Hi Jonathan,
First off, thanks for keeping in touch with all of your fans! I do share your addiction for your moring cup of java, but, mine is at Tim Horton’s. I would love to make you breakfast, do eggs still make you sick? How ’bout blueberry pancakes instead? Next time you’re in Toronto, I would love for you to take me up on my offer…

November 9th, 2008 at 10:05 pm
Hi Jon,
I think all you guys should get your rest. You guys travel and work way to much. And, It would have been my pleasure to make you breakfast, lunch and dinner
xoxo
Take care
November 9th, 2008 at 10:14 pm
hey jon
was total thinking about U when I read this in the morning. I was like dang I am in Wisconsin and you are there. I would total have came and meet U too. Next time. I want to Starbucks today. I call it 4 bucks here is Wisconsin. I got my normal a Iced Marble Moca Mackiato or how ever U spell it. Hope U can sleep tonight Bethanie
November 9th, 2008 at 10:44 pm
Jon: I was at the show, you should have just pointed me out and gestured for a cup of coffee and I would have gladly went to Starbucks and got you a coffee anyway you like it. I would have also loved to meet you but unfortunately the meet and greets were sold out. One question….a friend of mine attended the meet and greet and said it was only for about 3 minutes…why so short? She went up to you and introduced herself during the meet and greet, I was so jealous. The show was great by the way and I am sad that I will not be seeing you guys anytime soon because I am out of tickets
November 9th, 2008 at 11:11 pm
I am up, but it’s about 43 hours later than when you apparently originally asked. As I begin to type this, it is 11:58 PM CST on November 9th, 2008 - also known as my 30th birthday. I was checking my email and reflecting on the fantastic weekend I just spent with my friends and family when I realized I only had about 5 more minutes to complete my own personal favorite birthday tradition. I ran upstairs to quickly grab my iPod, then returned here to your website while I listened to the song that I’ve heard every birthday since my 12th - “Happy Birthday” off the “Step by Step” album - before the clock officially ticked away another year. I saw that you had blogged again this weekend and I had to share this with you since I thought you’d get a kick out of knowing I’d spent my last 18 birthdays with you
This year was extra special, not only because I turned <> 30, but because I finally fulfilled my wish to see you in concert a few weeks ago in St. Paul and it was fantastic! Thank you for making so many of my birthdays just a little bit brighter - you’ll be singing me to sleep tonight! 
November 9th, 2008 at 11:25 pm
Hi Jon,
Thanks,
My friend Misty and I will be going to the KNOTB concert when you come to Kansas City Sprint Center and i just wanted you to know how very much the concert means to us. We recently have been going through some marital problems though mine are resolved and on the path to recovery hers have no end insight. We came up through jr. high and high school listening to you guys and the year we graduated you guys broke up, but we remained faithful fans. So when the opportunity came for us to go to the concert we jumped on it!! For the first time in months I have seen my friend smile and be happy while we are making our plans and that has meant more to me then anything else and New Kids on The Block (or should I say men)made that happen by doing the one thing we never thought we would see again… you guys together again. So I ask this favor if you could give a shout out to my friend Misty Whisenhunt at your KC concert, if you can, you and Jordan were always her favorites. We have been fans since we were in 7th grade and we will be until the nursing home
Patrice M. (KCPatrice)
November 9th, 2008 at 11:37 pm
Way to give a shout Way to give a shout out to the Northwest’s Premier coffee brewers! I love Starbucks, but then again I only live 1.5 hours from Seattle… YUMMY! Anyhow, only two more weeks and I finally get to see you when you and the rest of the boys come to Tacoma.
November 10th, 2008 at 12:20 am
Wanted to send a shot out & tell you how sweet it is that you are reaching out & sharing personal, down to earth thoughts like this. I’m so glad that you were able to sleep after being so exhausted. Amazing how our bodies tell our minds who is in charge sometimes. When we are injured, extremely sick or tired, our bodies say, “Uh uh!”. We can only push ourselves before so long.
I thought about all of you & how exhausted you must be with all of these back to back shows. Your fans really appreciate the love you all have shown us. The dedication, hard work, & love you all give is so much appreciated. MM..muah!!
November 10th, 2008 at 12:32 am
i think it is great you guys take the time to blog on here.. Is there any chance of another album?? another concert in providence??
November 10th, 2008 at 12:44 am
Hey Jon! Sounds like we have the same sleep patterns! If you’re up and ever need someone to chat with, I’m here! If I’m not out and about, then I’m usually on the computer! Hope the tour is still going good! My friends and me are STILL talking about the Dallas concert and probably will be for a while! When y’all get a chance, come back to Texas! We could party it up! Take care and happy trails!

I have to admit I am starting to feel like I am 12 years old again!!!! My cousin and I saw all of you NOLA!!!! I lost my voice!!!! It is so crazy to see all of you guys doing what you all love to do!! It’s like you never left!!! I have to admit it is driving my husband nuts!!!! I just wanted to say that I love you guys and support you all the way!!! Keep it up because we sure did miss you guys!!! Peace out!!
Love Andrea

If you are eveer in the LA area or in the southern california area you better stop by for a home cooked meal. I work at Williams Sonoma and I have learned so much from working there. Plus I have all of the nice cooking equipment too. I was happy to see that you voted. I did too. I was at the polls at 7:15 in the morning voting for the best person (in my opinion) that can run this country. How do you get “facetime”? Do you have to be at the Waffle House at 3 am? I don’t have a waffle house in Orange County. But I could hook you up with some awesome pakcakes with the best vermont maple syrup. Or I could sear some pork tenderloin with pancetta. Anyways, hope you are having fun on your tour and I think you are goingto be back this way soon. Maybe I will go the Nokia concert. Take care….

Jon I know the feeling….wait till you go thru the MO….wish I could be there tommorrow to see yall perform at one of my home towns…but I’ll see you in KC on Tuesday!!
November 10th, 2008 at 3:21 am
Well Hello!You had a right to be tired, you guys gave an awesome performance. I attended the tour concert in Providence, Rhode Island at the Dunkin Donuts Center. Let me tell you guys something, you made me feel like a kid again! The show was amazing! I felt like you guys never left! 15 years was a long time but it was completely worth the wait!!!!! I always hoped some day you guys would return. And here you are!! THIS LOVE WILL LAST FOREVER!!! Can’t wait till you guys return to Providence! I love the new album and the greatest hits album takes me back to being a kid!!! Thank you so much for getting back together! NKOTB 4-EVA!!! Love ya all!!!!!!!!!
November 10th, 2008 at 3:53 am
Jon…I know all about sleepless nights and crazy sleep cycles. I can’t imagine trying to sleep in a moving bus - I am not really comfortable sleeping in a car. Anyway, I am glad you got to a Starbucks though! I have actually never been to one yet. I must be the only person in America that hasn’t. That’s one of the things on my “list”, haha. Much Love! ~Jaime~
November 10th, 2008 at 3:54 am
JOn–youlooked a bit peaked. Hope you get the rest that you need dear. Sorry to miss you at the mixx. Do you even need to ask if we’ll make you breadkfast!! Of course–where ought I sign up! The best to you and yours. Congrats on Tuesday night. I’m no Democrat, but in the Anglican tradition I am called to ‘bury the hatchett’ and pray for my leaders and all in authority–no matter who they may be–and I wiill; Wisdom and safety for the incoming President, his family, and those he chooses for council.
Luv you guys again–thanks for the good times.
November 10th, 2008 at 3:55 am
You are such a cutie, Jonathan, I really love you getting in touch so often lately. It makes you feel close to us, we love that!
Hope it’ll be 2009 soon, so we can have you close to us in Europe too…
Kiss from Belgium!
November 10th, 2008 at 4:10 am
Hi Jon!
I don’t drink coffee, but am happy to join you anyway! And I’ll cook you a “home-made breakfast” anytime. How do you like your eggs in the morning?! Scrambled, boiled, fried? Toast? Pancakes? BlueBerry Muffins is going to be difficult, since they don’t sell them overhere. But I’ll bake them myself, if you want. Ehm…bisquits is going to be a problem. If you let me know on time, I’ll have them send over.
Another thing: I have to warn you for something. There is no Starbucks in Holland…(only at the airport) I know, it seams unreal, but it is the truth. Sorry…..I thought I’d better tell you now, so you can take precautionary measures! LOL
But again: my offer for a breakfast stands…anytime!
Take care!
*X* Jess.

Hey, I hear ya, just got home from AC last night. I was exhausted as well. After standing on my feet for more than 8 hours for the second time at the Borgata I think my feet would have cut themselves off if I waited in that line at the Mixx. LOl, however if I got the pass that the girl next to me got I would have been there in 2 seconds flat….it’s all good. Can’t wait until you guys come around here again!!!!Next time I am really hoping for an autograph!! Love you guys and great show again!!!!!
Love

November 10th, 2008 at 7:19 am
hEY JON!!! Back at work today
I was at the AC concert on Friday nite and noticed you were a little winded. I felt for you. I am almost 12 weeks pregnant (with a 2 year old) and bedtime for me is 9:00 these days! But staying up was well worth it for you guys! We came so close to meeting you guys through one of Donnie’s old friends. He got us into the VIP party, but being PREGO, I was a little afraid of all the pushing that was going on. So we left. I’m glad I didn’t miss you!
YOU GUYS ARE WONDERFUL! AND IT WAS NICE TO FEEL 14 AGAIN!!!
November 10th, 2008 at 7:28 am
Missed you by 1/2 hour — stayed up until 5:30AM (got in at 3AM after an 8 hour drive from Ottawa!) Did get to meet you before the show — so sweet of you to make sure the right photographer got our picture. If you come to Ottawa, I’ll be more than happy to make a “home cooked” for you and anyone else on the tour!
love, kim
November 10th, 2008 at 7:30 am
Hi! Sorry for the late post - I tried to post yesterday but guess it didn’t go thru…
I think the Starbucks WORKED - Came down from Boston and saw you guys at Mohegan Sun the other night and WOW - what an INCREDIBLE show! I have not seen an artist with a show like that in forever!!!! I love that every time I see you guys perform it’s better and better!!
If you decide to do any shows in the Biloxi/Gulfport area (my second home) and are looking for Starbucks, there are two: One in the Hard Rock Cafe Hotel and Casino (NIIIIICE!!!) on the second floor at the Casino level, and one on Pass Road (opposite direction of the beach) on the way to Edgewater Mall, left hand side of the street.
Since Ice Coffee is your pick, you might enjoy a local spot called PJs - on Pass Road in the other direction on Pass Road about a mile or so from the Starbucks - maybe two - on the right hand side of the street. Their Vienna is especially good and not bitter.
Anyhow - can’t wait to see you guys again and THANK YOU for coming back - we are really happy to see you! If you guys make a DVD of the show, vocal teachers and managers EVERYWHERE will appreciate sharing it with their students and artists. Every newbie should see how it’s REALLY done!!
Love and blessings, Darcie
November 10th, 2008 at 7:31 am
mmmmmm…Starbucks…I could use some right now…
November 10th, 2008 at 7:34 am
WOW I must have just missed you then. I was at Starbucks a little later. I needed a little coffee to get me going. I got sucked into a slot machine and was up too late. Oh well next time. Great concert! I took my mother for her 60th birthday and she loved it. I think she felt like she was 20 years younger too. She took me to my first NKOTB concert back in 1989! Hope to see your next concert too.
November 10th, 2008 at 7:37 am
I could do with a Starbucks right now guys! Bad hangover!! Longing for January 17th when you guys play Manchester, UK! I’ll be there!! Love u all xxx Simon, UK
November 10th, 2008 at 7:45 am
hello jon … I feel when you travel for hours .. but when you go to Monterrey, Mex. I’m going to prepare breakfast … with dessert and more.you like?……I LOVE YOU!!
November 10th, 2008 at 8:41 am
Hi guys!!
I’M SO SAAAD!! Idon’t know if you really read all this posts but, I’m so sad because Madrid, Spain is not included on your tour dates! I love you so much, guys! If you come here, that means so much to me. Well, all I can say in response to this topic is that here in this country, we have also Starbucks…!!
xoxo
Mia
PS: Don’t know if I should say this but yesterday, I’ve created you in The Sims 2 Deluxe Edition that I have. You’re the NKOTB Family and you share the house with me! Also we got a black car…
November 10th, 2008 at 8:44 am
Wow, we missed you. By 5 am we were still driving back to PA! Love you all.
November 10th, 2008 at 8:57 am
Hi Jonathan,
Thank goodness for Starbucks! It sucks when you can’t get back to sleep and you’re trying not to wake everyone else up. Many times I am just not able to turn my mind off. I’m sure this crazy touring schedule doesn’t help things.
I would have been more than happy to make you breakfast, however I’m in Grosse Pointe Park, Michigan not to close to CT. Maybe another time. You guys are great! Hope you come back through Detroit, I would love to see the show again. I could kick myself for not buying the VIP, just wasn’t in the budget but somehow it will be if you come back.
I have always been a huge fan, especially of yours. These blogs have been great! Can’t wait to read more. Try to get some rest!
Love,
Amy
November 10th, 2008 at 9:00 am
hahaha Jon, you’re making a rod for your own back as you have probably not enjoyed your coffee in peace this morning! :-)Your own fault lol
I know what you mean though about needing that caffeine fix. Hope you’ve had some brekkie & feeling a bit more awake now.
M x
PS: Mine is a Latte Grande please, followed by a Frappucino - the Vanilla one with whipped cream please - Cheers.
November 10th, 2008 at 9:16 am
Hey there, boys!
I am so excited that I am seeing you tonight in St. Louis! My first ever concert experience was seeing you guys in Columbia, MO when I was a freshman in highschool. Man, this excitement is about to kill me. I’m 32 and still a die-hard fan. My best friend, Sheila, and another friend, Jen, will be there. Sheila and I went together the first time, so we will definitely be reliving some goooood memories. We are sooo happy you guys got back together, and you’ve definitely gotten even better with age! See ya “Tonight”!
Peace and love,
Autumn
November 10th, 2008 at 9:18 am
Jon,
I was there and was wondering where you were. We didn’t get to the concert but drove out for the party. Everyone eles in the car was happy to see Donnie and Joe and I was looking for you. It was fun anyway. At 5am I was still driving home to PA. I had been up for 24 hours by then, but still driving everyone eles was sleeping. I would’ve gotten you Starbucks if that would’ve woke you to be at the party…….LOL.
Love you,
Erin
November 10th, 2008 at 10:00 am
Jonathan,
Although I’m way too old to be blogging on a fan web site, I was checking the tour schedule (you’ve already been here and gone - Texas - too bad, was thinking about tickets as a gift) and my morbid curiosity got the best of me. Now, here I am registered, logged on, and blogging! I’m not big on blogging anyway, except for the past few months regarding politics - my self control isn’t strong enough when it comes to certain issues…
Anyway, even though you seem to have received numerous sleep remedies as well as breakfast invitations, I can’t help but mention the obvious…lay off the Starbucks.
If you find you can’t bring yourself to do that (which is understandable) then counter it with a glass of wine to help you unwind and a good book at bedtime.
Don’t know your tastes for wine (if any) or your reading interests, so can’t make suggestions, but I’m sure you have your own ideas.
Hope it helps.

November 10th, 2008 at 10:16 am
Hi John,
I met you guys very briefly at the Borgata in A.C. I am the one that told your brother that I was there for him. Wish we had more time…. The show was great and I am having major withdraw. Come back to the East Coast soon. Thanx.

I can only imagine how tired you might be. It must be hard to travel for so long. The longest time I have traveled for was 4wks and I missed my home
I am no where close to where you are now but if you want to come by and have a nice home cooked breakfast, lunch or dinner just let me know….you can stop on your way from San Diego to LA later this month…I live in Orange County (right in the middle) It would be my pleasure to make you all a meal
Take Care
November 10th, 2008 at 11:04 am
Jon you are to funny. Thanks for reaching out. I know that feeling about the noise in NYC…I live here. hahhahahahah Would have loved to have made you a Dominican breakfast with Starbucks on the side.
Later,
Maciel
November 10th, 2008 at 11:06 am
Oh…next time you stop by a Starbucks you have to try their “skinny vanilla latte” or thier new “pumpkin spice” - warm tastes better
November 10th, 2008 at 11:09 am
I’ve been a fan from the beginning,my wife heard “The Block” and instantly became a fan,we saw you guys rock MOHEGAN this past Saturday(the place was packed with gorgeous girls, it was also good to see that i wasn’t the only male fan in the arena)and would see you guys again if you’d come back to New England, that’s how much we loved the show. The dancing,singing, and the effects were off the hook!! You guys kicked ass!! Jordan, my wife loves you,man she took hundreds of pics.of the guys but most were of you! You guys are a great talent,I hope it doesn’t end here and you guys continue touring and making more records for years to come. We fans love,and thank you for great entertainment.Much success.
November 10th, 2008 at 11:27 am
Thanks, Jon. I was doing real well without Starbucks this morning til I read you entry. Too bad I’m stuck on campus without one for another 5 hours. Ugh.
And yes, I would cook y’all breakfast if you were still here.
Hope y’all are well.
November 10th, 2008 at 11:31 am
Major bummer I wasn’t there! I could go for a Chai Tea now! Haha! Kudos to all of you! I don’t think I could be in a tour bus that long… I love my sleep to be peaceful! But who knows!!!
November 10th, 2008 at 11:44 am
If I was in there Jon I so would bring you a homemade breakfast and buy you your coffee. Really enjoying the answers, thank you for doing that. 11/14 Colorado. Love -Alanna brandhan@q.com
November 10th, 2008 at 11:52 am
I am sooo sad, you guys are going to be in my hometown tonight and I can’t go. Thank goodness, I saw you when you were in Cleveland. However, it just isn’t enough.
I’m sure my sister would make you guys some breakfast after the show tonight
November 10th, 2008 at 12:17 pm
Hey Jonathan! Sorry for the late response-I was gone all weekend-just read your blog. It was great hearing from you as always. I know you’ll probably never get down to reading this, but on the off chance you do, i’m looking at your button right now, with your pic, and I was thinking of you anyway, and then i saw your blog, and it was really cool! I love Starbucks myself-good thing the nearest one is 30 minutes away, or i’d be in trouble! Unfortunately I have to drink decaf, but thankfully their decaf is as good as the regular. i love decaf lattes, and cappucinos. Espressos are also very good. I know what you mean about the casino-we went to Vegas for our “family’ trip this past summer, and stayed at the Stratosphere. they have a Starbucks in the lobby of the casino too, and it was a godsend! i hit it every morning we were there. I’m a total Starbucks hound! i guess danny would tell me to “get off the crack” too!
Anyway, stay safe, get some rest, you’ve certainly earmed it. Tell the guys I love ‘em all if you do happen to get around to reading this. You especially, Mr. GQ! 
I’d have fixed you some french toast if I’d been there. It’s my specialty! I make wicked french toast-seriously. I can also make a real “southern” style breakfast, eggs, bacon, biscuits, whatever you like. I’m a southern girl- I’m not sayin’ I’m Betty Crocker by any means, but I can cook up some food when I want to! 
Anyway, look forward to hearing from you guys again soon.
Love,
Beth Wade, 36, from TN
November 10th, 2008 at 1:15 pm

Wish I was there!

Hi Jon,
I wish that I will have a chai tea or an earl grey tea for you plus your favorite food but my hobby is cooking because I love cooking since when I was 13.
~Sasha~
November 10th, 2008 at 2:01 pm
Mmm, a cup of coffee sounds so good right now…
Breakfast, lunch, dinner, take your pick. Or if you’d like I’ll make you all three.
November 10th, 2008 at 2:29 pm
Oh Jon…. man… you are killing me here….
How much I wish I could share a cup of coffee with you !
Lots of love,
Q
November 10th, 2008 at 2:29 pm
FYI: Jon,Bermuda does not have a Starbucks so when you guys come for a visit you’ll have to bring your coffee with you. My friends and I loved the concert in Montreal and were hoping that once you were finished touring in Europe next year that you might consider doing another concert in Cananda or U.S.A. Pretty please with a cherry on top
Bermuda will be loving you forever!
November 10th, 2008 at 3:34 pm
JON!!!!! I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
November 10th, 2008 at 3:47 pm
so…I just checked out the latest VLOG with Jordan, Joe, and Donnie driving recklessly in the golf cart in the after show get down. That was crazy…looked like so much fun though! Gave me a chance to see what it is like to get rushed by a bunch of fans…that is insanity! Hope that if I get to meet you guys, that it would be in a quieter setting.
I got to meet Jordan in 2004, something like that…and there was a fan that got violent…in line right after me…so…I did not get a good meeting with Jordan. I’d have to say that these days he looks a lot happier than he did then. So glad you guys are out again doing this! Keep Keepin’ On and I’ll see ya in Tacoma!
Blockheaded and lovin’ it!

I WAS there
That starbucks SUCKS btw…Next time order room service from Fidelia’s..best breakfast in the whole resort (or is it that I’m always too hungover, or still too drunk to really know the difference???) Who knows
Wow, we were still raring to go at that point too-you would’ve had your hands full!!! Face time, at 6 am!
November 10th, 2008 at 4:01 pm
Hi Jonathan, I would like to ask you 2 question’s if possible:
1. Do you like to eat Baklava?
2. Is their a chance that all of you will come back to Providence again?
I am sorry that I did not ask you these question’s before but I just thought of them now and I know that you still had alot of question’s to answer but I was just curious. I hope that all of you will come back to Providence soon because the show was outstanding!!!!!!!!!! Hope to hear from you soon, Love Always, Dina.

So, you guys are back out in the Midwest tonight! How did I-80 treat you? I drove it with some friends last year NY to Chicago in one night. Driving through Pennsylvania SUCKS!! Well, I am going home to pack since I will be leaving Wednesday to fly to Omaha to see your show!! I am really excited. How crazy is it that I didn’t go to the Oct 24th show at Allstate which is 45 minutes from my house, but I will fly to Omaha? I know it will be sooooo worth it!!! And I have 11th row. Be prepared! Chicago girls are going to rock Omaha. Donnie, I am coming for you! I want face time. Jon, if you need something to help you sleep let me know. I did so many boring trackers today I had to be careful when I blinked because I was afraid I would fall asleep face down on my desk. I also have a huge list of books I read this summer that were great. I would love to share them with you. Love you all, Carey
November 10th, 2008 at 4:15 pm
Hey Jonathan!
When you come to Vegas the next time…I’ll get you Starbucks! LOL!!! My favorite drink at Starbucks are their frappuccinos. I can’t believe your birthday and my birthday are in couple weeks. Let me know if you need help with sleep. I’m always tired myself, but be thankful you don’t have my job. If you want to know what I do for a living, just ask me and I’ll tell you. Take care and hope to see you again in the future!
XOXO,

I was at the Mohegan Sun show and of corse the show was Fabulous!!! My friend Trish and I went to the Gahden’s show in September which was awesome. This show was a close second. I sort of expected the same words to be said when you guys were talking during the concert. I really appreciated the fact that things were changed up a bit. You boys sure do know how to bring the house down. And might I just say this was a casino so I think at least Donnie thought the show was for more mature audiences…touching areas that were pleasing for ME to see. YUM!!! Sorry you had those hearing issues with your earplug DW, but thank you for those great shots. My friend Trish made our black NKOTB shirts that you guys had shown on the screen with the various New England sports teams. Big hit…girls were asking where they could buy them. I hope you guys make your way back to the Boston area. My credit card will thank you to, so Let’s Get This Joey!!! Thanks to you guys for another great night getting to dream about you guys. I really am proud of what you guys have accomplished throught your careers and man can you still work it! I really appreciate you guys! Keep it up…SLP
November 10th, 2008 at 5:06 pm
Ok guys..I’ll see you in Dublin at the VIP meet and greet…gonna visit my friends in my favorite city.. and see/meet NKOTB..My 30th year couldn’t be off to a better start! Susan
p.s.-Jon there are 2 Starbucks in the city centre.. on off Dame St. towards Temple Bar, and I’m pretty sure there is one on Grafton St… meet ya there!
November 10th, 2008 at 5:21 pm
Hey this is Latoya I lefted a comment a couple of days ago and I just want to know why was is deleted?
November 10th, 2008 at 5:50 pm
Easy. Take it easy on my fair city.
November 10th, 2008 at 5:53 pm
Oooooooooooooooooh Starbucks! I became addicted to their caramel apple spices drink while on holiday in NYC! Plus I couldn’t believe how many there actually were. You just had to walk 5 min. or you’d see another Starbucks. Amazing. We only have 1 here … at Brussels airport! Sigh. as I’m not about to drive to the airport every day - or even week for that matter - I am having withdrawel symptoms as I write this. I want my Caramel apple spice drink, :-). Never mind the calories that are in that drink(I mean, wow!!!!).
Oh and I’d kill (but not really) for one of their blueberry muffins or scones. Yummie!!!
Say … do you guys need another helper on your tour? I could be your Starbucks runner! ;-). Now there’s a job I wouldn’t mind doing (although I have to admit I love my current jobs also - both of them).
LOL…
It’s late, I’m getting silly.
Have fun on tour! Cheers to Starbucks & just to let you know … MSG in NYC concert was awesome!!! You guys rocked it! Even my non-fan friend had a blast!
Love & Cuddles,
ElsKe from Belgium

HEY, IT WOULDN’T BE RIGHT IF THERE WAS NO STARBUCKS AROUND. WHAT WOULD WE DO JON WITHOUT IT??? AND HEY IF I WAS ANYWHERE NEAR YOU I WOULD COOK YOU THE BEST DAMN BREAKFAST YOU EVER HAD!!!! EVERY GROWN MAN NEEDS TO EAT A GOOD BREAKFAST!!! CAN’T WAIT TO SEE YOU THIS SUMMER!!! KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK AND MAKE SURE YOU COME BACK TO CHARLOTTE, NC FOR YOUR SUMMER TOUR. ITS CLOSER TO WHERE I LIVE..LOL
XOXOXO,

Jon, there’s hundreds of Starbucks and Coffee Beans here in L.A., ring me up whenever you want to get some coffee, or I can cook some breakfast for ya, how ’bout some pancakes? Coffee? Eggs? Ham? oatmeal? You just let me know lol

November 10th, 2008 at 8:43 pm
Donnie….your part in “put it on my tab” stating you want to know the girl’s name, age, and sign, it is HOT!!! The words alone and the way you say them give me cold chills!! I hope you know that I could just stare at you and the others forever!!!
November 10th, 2008 at 9:26 pm
You know even though you guys “came out” on the today’s show, not every one knows you guys are back. Ever since I found out (not by the today’s show, but just looking on youtube one night), I have been telling people and surprising alot of people did not know. I have told so many people about the comeback and they were really happy and surprised. I have been so busy working and going to school full time for the past four years that I forgot about chilling out listening to music….untill you guys came back. I am sure you guys know this already, but The Block is great. I think my faverite songs (I do not have a faverite one)is Single, 2 in the morning (Joey, you are sexy as hell in this video), and Put it on my tab. I am sure that you guys know this, but saying the things Donnie says in “Put it on my tab” will more than likely get a guy laid!! Lol!! I am just saying from a girl’s point of view. Do you guys really read all of these comments by the fans??? I prefer to think you all do. The same old music is “officially over”!! The New Kids on the Block are BACK!!!
Jonathon, you seem like the quiet one..but you know what? Your silence makes when you talk that much hotter. In one of your interviews you said that you were the not the type to get married. Boy you do NOT want to discourage the fans like that!!!
Joey, your voice gets more sexier each song you sing!
Jordon, you are still hot as ever. I still remember the concert I went to back in the New Kids days..you were flying in the air with a white, open shirt with wind blowing on you.
Danny, you have certainly became more fit and believe me, the fans know and enjoy it!
As I said before, after this tour is over if the New Kids on the Block need to chill out and relax….Put it on my tab!!!
Love you guys!
November 10th, 2008 at 9:55 pm
I hope you got that cup of coffee..I know how I am in the morning without a cup..I just wanted to say thanks for a great night in philly on the 5th..it brought back alot of memories for alot of us..but for me it was more then that for the past couple weeks I have been so depressed and going to the concert made me forget about everything..so I just wanted to thank you for a great night..I can remember 15 years ago going to my first concert which was NKOTB it was great then and it was great now it just seems so weird now that im around the same age as you guys are now and back then you seemed so much older then me lol & now when im feeling down in the dumps I pop in your cd and it makes me forget about it all..So thanks again from the bottom of my heart..Keep up the great work..keep dancing & stay safe..Hope you will make it back to Philly soon..Hugs AuntCrystal
November 10th, 2008 at 10:15 pm
Hey Jonathan! I just wanted to thank you for that kiss you gave my twin sister & I at Mohegan Sun (right after you left the piano set)! You are a dream come true! This was our 3rd time seeing the concert in 2 months, plus the Today Show we were at in May & the autaautograph signing where we met you & the rest of NKOTB. Thank you guys sooooooo much for reuniting! You are AMAZING!!!!! XOXO
November 10th, 2008 at 11:18 pm
Jon,
I’m glad that you seem to be more comfortable with this whole blogging thing. I hope to read entries from all of you over time.I am sad that I don’t live near one of your venue locations.(Why couldn’t you guys come some where near Bowling Green, Ky?) I wanted to see you guys in concert so bad! *sigh* However, I am glad that you all get on here just to keep your devoted fans in the know. It makes me feel better ,since I won’t get to see one of your shows.
It’s funny how much we all grow and change over time. Just a note , Jon you were my favorite member of the group as a child. It’s not to say any of you are old men now . My point is you all have gotten better in every way possible with age. As an adult ,(I’m 24 now.) I have grown to love and respect all you in your own way.
I thank you Jon, Donnie, Joe, Danny, and Jordan for coming back and making it fun to just listen to music again. I love poping in ” The Block ” and jaming to “2 in the moring, Full Service,Dirty Dancing,Click Click Click,and Put it on my Tab.”(Which are my faves.) I love the whole album! There’s nothing like bumpin’ in my car or dancing around my apartment to your music.Thanks! I can’t help but be in a good mood after listening to five sexy grown men sing .
I wish all of you well in your travels . I pray that God will keep you safe from any harm. I hope you guys enjoy your second go around in the spot light. Have Fun , enjoy the shows ,and enjoy your fans. (We will do the same with you!)Love to you all~Aralashea Thomas
November 11th, 2008 at 12:30 am
Aww Jon!!!
Thank you so much for reaching out, I feel for you guys working so hard and making this experience so special for us all!!! The personal and consistent contact is SO appreciated! 
Sorry I am just seeing this now..I really miss you guys and hope SO much you will decide to stick around. 
Your influence on my life has ALWAYS been a positive one, even when you weren’t around. Thank you for everything and I’m so happy and appreciative that you all decided you wanted to do this!~ 
XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXXO~*Kelly Vargas*~
November 11th, 2008 at 7:36 am
Hi Jonathan!
I’m so glad to hear you are finally getting a little sleep! Some sleep is better than no sleep!
Where would we be without our Starbuck’s fix on a daily basis? Probably in the looney bin! haha Breakfast sounds so good right about now! I’m waiting for the carne guisada to finish cooking! I should’ve cooked it last night so I wouldn’t have to wait this morning! It tastes great with cheese! mmmmm Oh no! There goes my stomach growling again! Let me know when you come back down to San Antonio! I will be happy to make you guys a big breakfast! Of course you guys would have to get to it kinda fast because my girls are pretty quick with their forks! Someone got poked once! It’s kinda “dangerous”! 
Have a great week! Lots of love and hugs!

Today I savored my Chai Latte and thought of you. If Tennessee were anywhere near Connecticut it would have been lovely to meet you for a delicious iced beverage in the wee hours of the morning. Insomniacs unite!
Quiet things to do… did you know there are over 54 types of Solitaire? It’s fun to outwit yourself while playing Manchala, too. Recommended reading: American Gods - Neil Gaiman, The Greatest Salesman in the World - Og Mandino, and of course The Alchemist - Paulo Coelho.
Um, yeah, Nerds unite, too!
p.s. Glad to hear you’re safe and sound.
November 11th, 2008 at 5:58 pm
Jon (Starbucks “Crackhead” Jon or Jordan) -
Hey you and me both! I can’t live without Starbucks!!! I mean if I could have a SB Barista right by my bed I would! We were thinking of remodeling and adding a bar into our house but I think a coffee bar would be even better! Variety of roasted coffee beans from all over, syrups, whip cream, vanilla and other tasty toppings, bar stools, yeah I could just picture it now…
November 11th, 2008 at 6:54 pm
Hi, my post here is actually in response to jon’s latest blog about his and jordans bus almost having an accident.. I cannot comment on the actual blogpost.. I hope everyone reads this…
———
Sorry you had to go thru that Jon..
For everyone - especially the “very small of you who are being stupid”, please don’t over do it..
I know and understand where it comes from - love.
But like jon said you gotta be responsible and pay attention and remember that your actions may have unwanted impacts or negative effects..
I live so far away from the states - 12 hours in time difference. The only times i ever got to see the guys was in 91 when they had a concert in my country and last september at the rockefeller when i was in new york.
Fans who get to follow them, coming to almost every show, you are very lucky to have them so close.
There are Many of us who aren’t so blessed to have that chance, so please be grateful and appreciative of it by being responsible fans..
Again, i understand - not trying to be a smarta** here - that it’s all coming from love. So in the name of that love, the love that we fans around the world share, i’m humbly asking you to keep it safe..
Much respect

o mi gosh….
You are right to be assertive and say something about people driving all crazy by the bus…
My sister died in a car accident when she was 20…she was test driving a car with my dad and a lady went through a red light and hit her driving side.
My dad walked a way with a few stiches in his chin and my sister was in a coma for 3 days until the doctors told my mother that she was brian dead and she should consider pulling life support….
No Mother should ever have to make that decision.
people take life for granted and do stupid things.
I don’t think the girls meant harm they just made a stupid choice…we are all guilty of that at times.
So everyone please stay safe we don’t want this tour to end in tragedy for anyone……
Jonathan…. one more week and Calgary…
I’m in section 107 row 6 seat something or other…..
November 11th, 2008 at 8:21 pm
Wow! I so wish I knew this at the time. YOu AC show at the Borgata was amazing and meeting you for the second time was a dream come true. My cousin came all the way from England and waited 19 years to meet you all. She was scared like I was the first time I met you (at Best Buy in September). Anyhow. as a family , we’re going through tough times and we even considered not going. Thankfully we didn’t. Even thought it was brief, each and everyone of you made it worthwhile…I just wish I had a picture to look back on it. It really is a shame how we’re not allowed to take pictures. After it’s all over, that is the only thing we have left. We’ll have to settle for the group picture.
November 11th, 2008 at 8:24 pm
hey my sweet honey happy tuesday just a short little post and I am being truthful this time, it will be short. I am dead tired and it is only 10pm here in NY but this girl is going to sleep lol. My cousin called my house today at 6am and woke the house up - God I love the boy but he really has to learn to call at a decent hour lol. Anyway, hope you are getting on the rolling submarine - still have trouble sleeping and need something quiet I told you before go on a website you can download games to the computer like iwin or retro64 or bigfish games and you can download free play for an hour. Whenever I have trouble sleeping that is usually one of the things I do. I say I put the games on my computer for the little cousins so not true they are my quiet things to do when I can’t sleep lol.
Anyway thank you for being real and honest with your blog I would say more about what I think about the people that put everyone on your bus in jeopardy and also themselves but truly you said it more elequently than I ever could so I am keeping my mouth shut. Thank you again for your blog it is so true what you said.
Okay baby get rest on the road and enjoy yourself I love the video of the go cart I think we need to revoke Donnie’s drivers license but still that video was adorable and you all liked you had so much fun in it. Luv ya bunches baby….

Jon , it’s so nice to see how often you write on here. . . and it’s so cool how you came out so blunt about the stupidity of a few recently with the bus incident. . That makes you seem so much more real to us. . SO much more like just a regular person like the rest of us … so maybe that right there will help people remember to calm the hell down a ‘lil. . its not worth causing a car accident over. .
keep writting and keep keepin it real too
I gotta say . .. something that is irritating me. . .
I keep seeing that people are saying the BSBs are the top selling boy band but no one is realizing that it took them 14 years to do what you guys did in 6!!! that’s killin me. . correct me if im wrong. . but the people that report these statistics need to get that part straight. . .
November 12th, 2008 at 12:17 pm
At risk of sounding like a total isolated chick I’m going to admit that I’ve never had a Starbucks!
November 12th, 2008 at 2:46 pm
Jon -
I am going to just continue to pray for you and the rest of the NKOTB fellas because the “crazies” are not going to let up. I’m also going to pray for them too because they need Jesus, holy water and a straight arse whupping. These women have just taken immatuirty to whole new LEVEL!
Peace & Blessings,

hey doll face figured if you were having an insomnic moment you would need some love and affection - happy middle of the week hump day sweetie. Okay not a lot to give ya because this girl is about to get to sleep herself to get up for work tomorrow just wanted to make sure I showed some love. Sorry you had to or someone had to take down the blog that I loved - sometimes gossip people are cruel and vicious and the person that took a blog that was you wrote as humor happens to be just that person. Just for the record I hope after him his parents practiced birth control so that they are not anymore like him in this world. Honestly, I wish they had practiced it beore him but you can’t have everything lol. Anyway, don’t let the haters get you we love you no matter what and that is a fact and it is forever.
Also, you know I tell you this stuff before and I am pretty sure that no one can make you do something that you do not want to do. I have learned that by reading your blogs the past few months. Anyway, remember don’t ever feel someone pressuring you to say something about your private life that honestly should just be private period. Your life is your life and you deserve and have earned your privacy just like everyone else and just always remember that okay. The person who is pressuring well he is a troll and just a vermin of society and hopefully his five minutes of fame is at 4:59 seconds and we only a small time left with him.
Okay my sweet man - time for me and hopefully you too to get some sleep - remember to be careful and take care of yourself on the road and get your rest it is important and just keep staying true to yourself your fans love you with all our hearts and that is the same forever and ever. Okay baby love ya bunches I promise next blog I’ll have more when I am not dead tired - love love love
Love

hey sweetie man - happy friday well almost saturday figured you needed a little love since you are probably going to be traveling on the submarine tonight. Hope you had a great concert tonight and you got lots of rest yesterday. Remember just ignore the haters - you are a better person and a bigger man than they will ever be and you are loved and adored because you are you. There are just people trying to capture fame on someone else’s life they should be pitied truthfully.
anyway, I miss the blogs just wanted to say it again I get it that you are busy and tired and all and I loved your sweet smile on the video today sweetie but most of us really miss the blogs my sweet dude.
Okay you need your rest - have a great time traveling be careful driving the canadian highways and have fun at the ama’s on sunday love ya bunches and bunches honey

Hi Jordan!!
I met you on November 18/08 in Edmonton, AB CANADA at Rexall Place!! I was SO starstruck in those 5 minutes that I felt like my meeting with you was all over the map… LOL!! I threw a hug into you before I even introduced myself… LOL but I am SO grateful to have met you, you are my favorite NK!! My only regret is not following you guys to Calgary, AB the following night!! I was the girl that brought that newspaper clipping from your guy’s concert that you played here in Edmonton on November 1/1990. I am currently looking for a way to meet you guys again as my first time was TOO SHORT and my nerves were getting the best of me!! I’m highly anticipating you all coming back, not only that, I am prepared to attend any & all solo concerts if any of you continue on that path as well!! I’m still in a “high” after Tuesday’s concert & now I can’t imagine you guys not being around again, I think it would hit all your fans harder this time since the 15 year absense made our hearts grow even fonder for you all. I think I speak for all of us when I say: WE CAN’T BE WITHOUT NKOTB AGAIN!!! PLEASE DON’T GO AWAY EVER AGAIN!!!!! WE LOVE YOU!!!!
Now here’s what I really wanted to say but was so star struck that my nerves decided otherwise how things were going to go… LOL:
THANK YOU FOR COMING BACK, IT IS AN HONOR & TRUE PLEASURE TO HAVE MET YOU ALL. (well most of you, I missed Danny *sniff sniff*).
So I say it now with the greatest of gratitude and utmost joy in my heart. I truly am blessed to be a fan that has come in full circle with you all.
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU & HUGS FOR ALL!!
I’ll be loving you NKOTB FOREVER!!
P.S. I was the oriental girl with the glasses that was wearing the white ringer t-shirt that said in black letters: “B is for BLOCKHEAD”
LOVE YOU GUYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
