New Kids on the Block Tour Schedule Released!

The word is out, and we have the scoop. NKOTB today released part of their tour schedule, and we have listed the known dates below. Everyone is waiting to see how the Kids will perform, and NKOTB tickets are officially out there and flying. Don't hang about, as you'll be left on the shelf, and you don't want that!
Just remember, this is NKOTB's first live performance in over 12 years! That all-awaited "debut" is set for May 16 on NBC-TV's "Today" show, which we're sure will enjoy quite an audience. The performance will be followed by gigs at festivals in East Rutherford, New Jersey, and Mansfield, Massachusetts. The New Kids plan to head out as the weather chills, with some unforgettable shows in the eastern USA followed by Montreal in late-September.

From the late-80s through the early-90s, New Kids on the Block blasted over 70 million units to their adoring public, including consecutive No. 1 albums "Hangin' Tough" and "Step by Step." When NKOTB split in '94, a generation of teeny-bopping Boy Band worshippers folded with them, refusing to accept any substitutes. But now, as they enter their fourth decade on this planet - at a time when most rockers are putting their feet up - the New Kids are back together and ready to rock out!
