NKOTB 2008 Reunion
New Kids on the Block broke up in 1994 after the failed album 'Face the Music' was released. Multiple attempts were made to reunite the NKOTB boys between the years of 1995 and 2007. In 2008, New Kids on the Block released their first album in over a decade entitled 'The Block'.
The band's reunion tour, New Kids on the Block: Live, began in Toronto in September 2008. NKOTB toured the United States with musical artist Natasha Bedingfield. There were more concerts on the NKOTB tour scheduled for Canada, the UK and Germany.
NKOTB Band Members - Where did they go?
After the breakup of NKOTB, Donnie Wahlberg pursued a career in acting and appeared in the movies Ransom, The Sixth Sense, the Saw film series, and the mini-series Band of Brothers.
Jordan Knight, Danny Wood, and Joey McIntyre all tried their hand at a solo artist career. McIntyre also pursued acting and was a contestant on Dancing with the Stars in 2006.
Jonathan Knight left show business altogether and pursued a career in real estate.
Still New Kids on the Block or Old Farts who need to give it up?
I will admit I had a huge crush on NKOTB's Donnie Wahlberg when I was 12 years old. I owned all the New Kids on the Block paraphernalia, from the NKOTB action figures (okay, dolls) to the New Kids trading cards to the posters and VHS music videos.
I lived and breathed New Kids on the Block, even though it was really unpopular as the rest of my peers thought they were gay. It was 1990, and 'Step by Step' had just been released, and I was in love.
A lot has changed in the 19 years since I crushed on New Kids on the Block. However, their 2008 album debuted at the number one spot on the Billboard Top Pop Albums Chart. Apparently, New Kids on the Block still have a fan base.

joey mac i love you and donnie my friend ashia love you and mia love danny and we all love all of you guys.
I'm 33 and my friend and I saved all summer to go to their concert. I liked Joey back then. Now my Husband is much cuter!
My 34 year old daughter use to love these guys.
I guess if the Rolling Stones can still be touring at 60 (or more?) this is a good thing! I thought Joey Mc. was pretty good on DWTS, and love Donnie as an actor along with his brother Mark, who also started as a rapper.
I was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO in love with Jordan. I saw one of NKOTB's new music videos recently and decided the guys have actually aged pretty well...
I used to have a thing for Jordan and Danny... back in the day!
