The best news in the history of the world, ever

Posted: 4/1/08 at 3:19pm

Looks like the "Today" show's "got the right stuff."

All five original New Kids on the Block members - Joey McIntyre, Donnie Wahlberg, Danny Wood and brothers Jordan and Jonathan Knight - will appear together in the NBC morning show's courtyard Friday, a source tells People magazine.

After months of speculation, People confirmed in January that the band is reuniting - in time for the 20th anniversary of the release of its megahit album, "Hangin' Tough." The group also recently updated its Web site, nkotb.com.

Tour? Tour? Tour?

You'll be lovin them (forever)

I'm hoping they can do a "Rock Off" versus Hanson that will end with them Hanson brats getting killed and eaten.

I thought Jonathan was now an agoraphobic.

Jonathan had horrible stage fright, but I guess he's conquered it.

One of my all-time favorite music memories was seeing NKOTB on their Step By Step tour. Moms were offering to do "ANYTHING" (with all the suggestiveness that implies) to get their daughters backstage to meet the boys. The roadies LOVED that job.

I LOOOOOVED them when I was in high school. I think I might have to catch their show if they come around my area.
