Re: Hell is near....
After months of speculation and rumor, the Kids are coming back. A well-placed source tells PEOPLE exclusively that New Kids On The Block are indeed getting back together.
The band's Web site, www.nkotb.com, which had been dormant, is now back up and running in anticipation of the official announcement, which the source says will be made in the next few weeks.
The site currently features a television graphic with a fuzzy, flickering photos of NKOTB in their heyday, and a link inviting fans to sign up for info.
The boy band, which made legions of tweens swoon in the early '90s, selling more than 50 million albums, became a worldwide phenomenon before calling it quits in 1994.
Eighteen years later, they're still "Hangin' Tough." The oldest "Kid," Jonathan Knight, now a real estate developer, will turn 40 later this year. Since the band's demise, former members Donnie Wahlberg, 38, and Joey McIntyre, 35, have seen acting success, while Danny Wood, 38, has worked as a music producer and Knight's brother, Jordan, 37, has continued to record.
---------------------------------
They waited way too long to do this. Should've done it in the late 90's when the last remnants of their fanbase were becoming adults. Could've got a decent chunk of cash out of it. While people are nostalgic, it doesn't look like any of their fans are interested. Some bands are just doomed to stay in the past, the New Kids being one of them.
I remember chicks liking them in junior high and high school. They were the type of band girls like in the last stage of innocence. As soon as more 'adult' things take over their life, the New Kids cds and shirts went in the trash.
This reunion will fail.

^Good point Neemo, that is creepy and Lofton I like the thread's title...very fitting. 
It's not right that I had to suffer New Fags on the Block/The Backdoor Boys/and Nsuck all in one lifetime only to go through this again! :sick:
