Announcement To Come...

This is an email I received and can I tell you just how excited, anxious, and antsy I am?!?

Dear NKOTB fans:

Happy Holidays from New Kids on the Block! Stay tuned for BIG announcements to come top of 2009! You won’t want to miss your opportunity for more FACE TIME!!!! ***

SAVE THE DATE MAY 15 – 18, 2009 ***

I wonder what it could be. There are rumors about a cruise with the guys. I have personal reasons to not want it to be a cruise (I'll explain in a later post). I'm hoping more on the lines of a Fan Convention...so we'll see what the announcement is.

Happy New Year from NKOTB...

"Wishing you a very safe and Happy New Year! Get ready for 2009………."

An oldie but a true goodie...

Bunker Hill...

Donnie is in Boston the next two weeks filming the pilot for his next tv series, "Bunker Hill". It's about a cop who returns to his childhood neighborhood as the cop. Donnie does very well in cop shows/movies - just as long as he's on the good side of the law. Whenever he's on the bad side, he gets shot in the head! We can't have that, now can we!

Monday he was filming at the Union Oyster House down in Fanueil Hall. It's times like this I wish I still lived in Boston &/or Southie so I could pop down.

And to show that I can be objective ... I'm not digging the hair 'do' they got going on on him.

Boston Music Awards...

This year, the 21st Boston Music Awards (BMAs) were held on Sunday, December 7th. They did it a bit differently this year where it was invite/industry only with a few VIP tickets available for purchase.

New Kids On The Block were up for National Act of The Year. I have gone to the award show several times back in the 90s but stopped going when I didn't necessarily have a vested interest. While I do enjoy the thought of supporting local music, there just happened to be nothing that interested me personally.

I did not attend this year as I am being responsible and not spending money on another "show". Not because I'm a 'grown - up', but because I'm saving up for shows next year!


Anyway, I digress...

I'm happy to report that New Kids won their award! How exciting - I'm quite proud of what they achieved when so many said this was a cheesy marketing ploy - "to all you non-believers I say 'peace', you suckers"... (sorry I felt a specific song lyric was appropriate)
