I Can Haz NKOTB Reunion Tour Pleez? KTHXBAI!

Is it true or isn't it!? I'm going crazy wondering about it. I want to KNOW so I can plan my outfit and make travel arrangments (if they don't come to my state)! *stomping foot like petulant 3 year old!*

If you're shaking your head in disbelief right now...puh-leese! Do not underestimate the level of my obsession! I am CRAZY about NKOTB. =) Also, don't even PRETEND like you didn't love them also in '89/'90!

IM Convo with my mom...yesterday:

Mom: Guess what Elizabeth was talking about on The View today?!

Me: What?

Mom: NKOTB! She's so excited about the reunion tour. You're obsessed...but I think she may be just as obsessed as you!

Me: That's funny! Speaking of my obsession, I wrote a blog about it last night. Here's the link (and I gave her the link to my previous blog.)

Mom: (after reading blog) OMG! That's so funny and fantastic (fantastic is her fave word)! I can't believe you still have that journal! Timmy (my brother) says you need to email that to Elizabeth!

Me: WHAT?! No freaking way!

Mom: DOOOO IT! Maybe they'll read it on the air!!!

Me: *shrugs* Okay. (I do it...and tell mom when I'm finished.)

Mom: OMG! Maybe they'll ask you to be on the show! And you'll get to meet NKOTB! And they'll fly you to NY and put you up in a fancy hotel and treat you to dinner in a fancy restaurant! And you'll take me, of course!

Me: You're dreaming, woman!

Anyhoo...sorry to bore you with my long convo, but it gave me a laugh yesterday! =)

On every break I've had today, I've searched the interwebs for news about the NKOTB reunion. tmz.com said it was true. People.com said it was true. E!News apparently said it was NOT true...according to my friend, Jenn. Danny Wood tried to dismiss the rumors. BUT...if it's a rumor, then why in the world is the NKOTB website up and running again? And why is there a teaser video on there?! It says:

"They rose from the streets of Boston to become the biggest band in the world. They influenced a generation....Then they walked away from it all. Millions of fans around the world await their return. NKOTB. Are you ready?"
Why would they say that if it wasn't true?! To cause the obsessed fans like me MISERY???? *tears*
There's even a sound clip of a new song! I can hear Joe, Donnie (I think?) and Jordan singing and I KNOW it's nothing that has been released before. Sigh. To steal a phrase from Britwreck: GIMME MORE!!! More info that is. Put me out of my misery PLEASE! Just confirm...is it true or isn't it?!

BTW, I'm sooo listening to NKOTB Greatest Hits on my iPod right now! DON'T JUDGE!
I really do have decent taste in music! See my previous music blogs for proof. It's just that the mere mention of NKOTB and I turn into a 13 y/o girl again! I can't control myself!!

Yes, you need help. Serious help. And yes, I liked them in the 90s. But I also liked tight-rolled jeans and big bangs -- back then. But not now. :)

Love ya. MUAH!

How could you like them THEN and NOT NOW?! Seriously. I don't understand that. Just b/c I'm giddy w/ excitement over a NKOTB reunion tour does not mean that I'm going to suddenly start listening to cheesey boy bands and other crappy pop music. I'm giddy with excitement b/c it reminds me of how much fun I had BACK THEN.

Sigh. Guess I'm alone in my excitement.

You crack me up! I have to say that I was never a purist like you. I liked them, but it was more of wanting to be like everyone else so that's why I liked them. But you had that true, pure, unadulterated love for them. I'm glad that they are making a comeback for you and that your love is as strong as ever!
