Hangin’ Tough…Still

Ah yes, it was finally time for my NKOTB concert!  What a blast we had…and they still have it…most of it.

I should have realized that it was going to be a huge blast from the past when I saw the swarms of women on the train on the way to Toronto…I’m surprised that the few men on the train managed to fight their way through the wall of estrogen!

Christine and I had a great dinner before heading off to the ACC for the third and final New Kids concert in Toronto.  Fabulous time was had by all, as evidenced by the piercing screams and insane amount of energy flowing.  They played pretty much all of the old songs that they should have, and a couple of new ones.  My favourite song had to have been Jordan….still yummy….white shirt……………fan……………….

What was I saying?  Right, great concert.  We were also lucky enough to have Natasha Beddingfield (hope I spelled that right) as the opening act, she was incredible and I think I’ll need to snag her CD.

I am however on day two of losing my voice.  I might have screamed a little, just a little.

Remember the New Kids on the Block?  I was a die hard fan in the 90’s, I went with my friend Christine and joined the hordes of young pubescent girls.  We screamed ourselves hoarse, and made wedding plans.  I may have even practiced writing my “married” name LOL.

Well after 20 years they’ve decided to have a reunion, with a concert tour.  And guess who’s going??

ME!  With Christine!  We’re hopping on the first time warp and heading to the big smoke.  I’m strangely excited.  We’re going to be off to the side of the stage 23rd row.

Now excuse me, I have to go dig out my NKOTB CDs d try to see if I can still remember the songs!
