NKOTB

This post is dedicated to Molly Beth.

Last weekend my SIL went to the New Kids On The Block concert in Dallas. From what I've heard, she loved it and is already asking for tickets to the next one. Molly was, no IS, a HUGE NKOTB fan. Bed spread, posters, t-shirts. I've actually seem some of it when I helped clean out her old closet.

And she is a MEGAHUGE Joey (Joe?) fan.

She has seen him on Broadway and has the picture with him to prove it.

I, however, was not as cool as Molly. My mother limited my exposure to the pop radio station and so I was never quite as in the loop as my friends. Also, most of my NKOTB memories are from 5th grade and I was pretty sure I would some day do gymnastics or cheerleading on some sort of professional level so that took up alot of my time. =)

But when it came up in discussion, I had a crush on Jon. I know, I know. I think I felt sorry for him being in the shadow of Jordan. (I seriously couldn't remember Jordan's name for a few minutes. I was starting to type "his brother" when it came to me)

I ran across this recap of the Houston concert and laughed out loud.

Molly, if you want to give us a recap of your concert experience we would love to hear it, you journalism major you.

Love you, sister.

And just FYI, Molly and I will both be turning 30 in 2009!

And this is so unrelated, but how do you put a line through a word? I've seen people do it on other blogs and haven't figured it out. I would have totally loved to mark through was and type is but I had to be all not cool and put a comma with no IS instead. Help a girl, please.

This may sound funny, but I remember watching the NKOTB videos when they were on MTV back in the early 90s! LOL

Bridget & Molly,
NKOTB were on Rachael Ray a few weeks ago & had a 'biggest fan' contest. The girl( I should say,woman) who won had, among lots of other things, a bottle of water that she took off a used room-service tray at the door of one of those guys(sorry,don't remember who). She saved the water for 13 years or something like that til she got on the plane to be on the RR show: security made her pour it out! I just wanted to know if you love them as much as she does?!

So glad to finally read your blog and to see NKOTB there! You have no idea how AMAZING the concert was! I didn't cry, b/c I'm a screamer, but every girl around me did... and I look forward to telling you ALL (and I mean ALL) about it...

and yes, I do believe if I had that water, I would have known to check it and not let the security guards pour it out... crazy woman not thinking!

And Jon was my second favorite... but he didn't say ONE word at the concert... he might have sang a couple though.
