Just when i thought i had seen everything......

They may no longer be new. They may no longer be kids. But NKOTB are out to prove they still have the right stuff.

New Kids on the Block, the prototypical boy band of the 1980s and early '90s that preceded the Backstreet Boys and 'N Sync on the pop charts and in the pages of Tiger Beat, are reportedly on track to reunite.

The band's official Website, www.nkotb.com, is, after a long period of dormancy, once again up and running and imploring fans to keep hanging tough for a forthcoming announcement. That announcement, per People, is that Jordan Knight, Joey McIntyre, Donnie Wahlberg, Jonathan Knight and Danny Wood will be making like the Spice Girls and relaunching their once chart-dominating act.

There's no word yet, however, on whether the group's resurrection will include a tour, a greatest-hits album or the release of any new material.

Their site simply teases that an undoubtedly earth-shattering development is in the works, with a fuzzy television set flickering on and off on different photos of the group in their heyday.


Despite attempts by MTV to reunite the group in the past decade, the move has consistently been vetoed by one or more members of the quintet.

This hearkens back to the Z100 thread in the Old Folks Home. I was playing their material in heavy rotation (whether I wanted to or not) back in the day on Lynchburg's Hot FM.

Did anybody catch Jordan's horrendous act on Surreal Life a year or so ago?

Joey came out with a Christian album about a year ago and was here in Houston stretching every ounce remaining of his fading celebrity to promote the product. It didn't appear to help much.

I'm part German (on my fathers side- I could tell you all about it if you want to PM me, but do it later because right now I'm hiding in the bushes outside my wifes bathroom)

Dang it! I knew that and then I changed it.

That's some kind of interesting game you've got with your wife there, Medic.

Only if it precedes "bathroom night". If it comes after then, no, not so much.
