Get ready girls, one of the biggest boy bands of all time is set to tour again in 2009! The New Kids on the Block are headlining their own tour starting this spring. It will actually be a fairly quick tour starting March 7th and going through until the end of the month. Some of the lucky cities include, Orlando, Nashville, Baltimore, Portland and Hidalgo Texas. There will be 15 cities in all. The boys were welcomed back with open arms when they appeared live for the first time together in 15 years on the “Today Show” last spring. It was like then never left. Their fans (although older) were as crazy for them today as they were back in the day. The only difference is that they brought their children with them.
The group released their first new album in 15 years and it went to #2 on the Billboard 200 last fall – not a bad comeback. The first time around the boys sold over 70 million albums and had back to back #1 albums. So as you can imagine the guys couldn’t be happier to back and be back on top. Now that being said, the boys have made some interesting plans for the month of May. From May 15th to May 18th, the boys will be performing on a cruise ship. Don’t worry you read that right. I know kind of weird in their career path. Not only will they be performing, but they will be holding some meet and greets as well. Joey McIntyre jokes, “We’re not going to be drinking pina coladas. We’ll be serving them!” Anyone of them can serve me a pina colada, anytime! The cruise sails from Ft. Lauderdale to the Bahamas. Joey also insists “this is not a step back” for the band. Ok, I believe you, I think.
