Ok, so those who remember the New Kids On The Block and who were a huge fan like I was, will be happy to know they will be on the Today Show on Friday April 4th. I'm a bit excited and shocked. I mean were you a huge fan? I still remember having posters of them on my wall! So were you a fan? Which one was your favorite?

Yes! I heard that they were back together for a little reunion! I was thrilled! I was a huge fan and was so in love with Joey McIntyre that I was sure he would love me if we could ever meet! LOL! I went to two of their concerts back in the day! I also like Jonathon but, Joey was my favorite! Who was your favorite? I had posters plastered all over my walls and even my ceiling. I had memorabilia like these cloth flag like things and a sleeping bag, those gigantic button...oh so much crap! LOL! And, I was in their fan club. I can't wait and have to remember to record the Today Show tomorrow! Thanks for reminding me! If they tour and come to my state, I might have to see if I can find any other old fans and see if we can go together. I probably don't know anyone else that was a fan. Most of my friends are about 5 + years older than me. But, maybe!

My favorite ones were Jordan an Donnie. You can check out the site nkotb.com They still look the same only all grown up, I gotta say they are handsome.

Oh yes! I had the posters, shoelaces, books, bracelets...it was crazy! Jonathan was my favorite so of course I had a lot more pics of him. My friend sent me an email today to tell me they were announcing a tour and that she had never been. She said she might have to check it out now. LOL I wonder what made Danny and Donnie change their minds. Several years ago VH1 tried to get them together for Band Reunited and the others said yes but Danny and Donnie wouldn't even appear on the show.

NKOTB no way lol. I never was a fan but I know some friends who will love it. I was one of the select few who found them to be silly and thought there music wasnt so good. But still good for them for the comeback hope it works for them.

I wasn't a fan of them at all. I was already out of school and in the military when they came around, so I grew up with 70's rock and 80's hair bands and didn't have any boy bands when I was growing up. Are they still calling themselves New "Kids" on the Block? They must be pretty old by now. Then again, the Backstreet Boys are pretty old and they still call themselves the same thing.

Well, I was very young when the NKOTB were popular, so I don't really remember much about them. I do remember that my cousin's, who were much older than me, LOVED them! Their walls were covered in posters, and they had everything that was every on television taped. It was rediculous. They were so strange though, as their favorites were NKOTB and Marilyn Manson, what kind of combination is that?
