I had a NKOTB sleeping bag when I was 9. It made me the coolest kid at sleepovers.

Now I have Step by Step stuck in my head.

"Ooh baby! Gonna get to ya giiiiiirrrrl!"

"STEP!"

ahhh the memories. I don't know if I'm proud or ashamed to admit that NKOTB was my first concert. I was 8. It was me and my dad and a bunch of other 8 year olds and their dads. I don't think I've ever apologized to him for that one!

Shopaholic, I've seen NSync twice and 98 degrees once... Jordan Knight was the opener for NSync the first time I went, in 1999.

I saw 98* too. Same with No Authority, & 5ive, lol. Ya, I used to be a teeny bopper, lol. Now I'm just one in secret. I saw Nsync in 99 too!! But Blaque (spl?) was the opener. I've only seen them once and BSB twice.


I love Jordan Knight!! I remember that one song he had a few years ago. I even like the song he did with Debbie Gibson. I think my friend saw him in concert once, I cant remember which friend though, LOL!!

My mom and aunt took me and my cousin to there concert when I was in 8th grade. I was totally in love with Donnie!! I still have the shirts/pins/hats/dolls/posters.

Mandalinn - I would have loved to have a sleeping bag. You would have definately been the cool girl at my slumber parties!

Wasn't Jordan the one on that reality show the Surreal Life?

Oh boy this is embarrassing... I has the biggest crush on the New Kids. I was jealous of the girls with all the NKOTB stuff. I just had my imagination

I went to go see N'Sync when Jordan Knight was opening for them as well.

Irish~Thats not cool. I remember my cousin got to see New Kids, and I cried for weeks because I couldnt go. I was a little iffy when BSB came out with a new cd. No offense, but they should just give it up, and have a reunion 10 years later or something. I bet Nsync would probably do that too. I listen to 'twisted boybands' too..lol.


Lovin~Donnie was my 2nd fave, lol. And ya..Jordan was on that show.


Faerie~You could probably buy their stuff now.

I heard they were going to be on there, but I didn't get to see it!! I remember all the girls in elementary school would bring our "boom boxes" to the playground and dance around to NKOTB music like a bunch of weirdos.

But you should've seen me this morning. I was waiting in my truck for the workout center to open, and this morning radio show came on and the FIRST song they played was "Hanging Tough." I was grinning ear to ear!!!
