New Kids on the Block Return With New and Old Fans
The former 1980s music boy band, New Kids on the Block, or NKOTB, has finally reunited with a new album “The Block” and is currently on an international reunion tour. The new album has already generated two hit singles on the top of the Billboard charts, “Single” and “Summertime.” Many online sites offer cheap international tickets for young-at-heart New Kids fans looking to check out a concert.
The reunion concert tour will highlight the former New Kids On The Block Songs as well as the new singles. During the late 1980s and early 1990s New Kids were known for their over-the-top concert tours, and the new shows will be no exception. Dazzling choreographed dancing, costume changes and stunning set design are planned for the new tour. Old and new fans alike will need to scour the Internet for cheap international tickets, as many concerts are already sold out.
The 5 Beantown boys have matured and aged in the 15 years since the last concert tour. The boy band members are now in their 30s and 40s. The new and updated New Kids on the Block have taken their old 1980s music styling to a new level with a fresh R&B sound. Popular R&B artist, Ne-Yo, Akon, Lady GaGa and the Pussycat Dolls appear on the new album giving “street cred” to the former wholesome boy band.
The still popular band members, Donnie Wahlberg, Jonathan Knight, Jordan Knight, Joey McIntyre and Danny Wood return to the musical stage with their 1980s music, voices and dance moves intact. Joey McIntyre became a popular contestant on the show, Dancing With the Stars in 2006, and brings his dancing talent to the band’s performances. Both Donnie Wahlberg and McIntyre forged successful acting careers during the group’s hiatus.
Danny Wood and Jordan Knight get their music careers going with some success. Jonathan Knight, on the other hand spent the past decade working in real estate. Now that the five band members are reunited and once again on tour, they are appealing to their former fans, now middle aged, and a new generation of teens. New Kids Lyrics are being printed off from lyrics web sites to sing along to old favorites. Perhaps a new line of New Kids on the Block lunchboxes or other nkotb merchandise is next on the horizon.
The New Kids are set to hit the stage in places like the UK and Germany as part of their international tour. Girlicious, a new girl pop group, is the opening act for their performance. Many online booking agents have cheap international tickets available for the European concerts. The concerts are wowing fans with former musical hits such as, “Step by Step,” “Cover Girl,” “Tonight,” “I’ll be Loving You (Forever)” and “You Got it (The Right Stuff).”

The 1980s music sound of the New Kids still has the power to entertain and generate top Billboard singles. The album, The Block has already gone gold in Canada. With the music business experiencing a general decline in music sales, due to the cheap availability of online songs to download, the resurgence of the New Kids may be just what the music industry needs to spark excitement. The sales of New Kid’s cheap international tickets and CDs are just the beginning, for a band that once had licensed lunchboxes and a Saturday morning cartoon show.
