Verizon Wireless Arena, Manchester, NH
I am a sucker for boy bands. I was too young to be a NKOTB fan back in the late 80's/early 90's, but know that if I was older I would have been obsessed. I absolutely love their new CD "The Block" so I just had to check them out in concert. I got a preview at the Kiss Concert in 2008 and wanted more! Me and my BSB buddy Allison went to this show-- we share that love for boybands.
When we first got to the show, we noticed that a ton of people had these white posterboard stars that said 'thank you" on them. We kept wondering what they were and saw them everywhere. As soon as we sat in our seats, the ladies behind us handed us each a star. There were instructions on the back of the star that said "hold this up during the song 'I'll Be Loving You Forever."
We had 17th row on the Floor-- awesome seats. The Jabeawookeez opened the show-- it was a very different type of opener but so awesome. They danced to wicked good music, and even did the "Single Ladies" dance and the New Kids "Right Stuff" dance.
Although the guys are all around 40 years old, they can still dance like crazy!! Jordan Knight is still a hottie-- he sang his solo "Give it To You" with an unbuttoned shirt, showing off his amazing bod. Donnie Walburg is all about Boston pride, and got us all pumped up.
The funniest part was when a bra was flung onto the stage as they were at a talking part of the concert, and Jordan picked it up and did a crazy dance with it!
They performed a combination of their new album and their classic hits. The best ones were "Grown Man", "Click Click Click", "Step By Step" and "Right Stuff."
