This was my second NKOTB concert and these tickets were a Christmas/Birthday present from my mother-in-law, sister-in-law and niece. I was never a BSB fan, but I was pleasantly surprised that I did actually know some of the songs.
Of course, NKOTB was just amazing! I love seeing how they really care about their fans. Other concerts I have gone to have thanked their fans, but these guys seem to really mean it. They know that without us fans and our undying devotion, they wouldn't have been able to make a comeback and be on tour for the last 3 years.
This crowd was a bit different than three years ago. There weren't nearly as many pins and buttons :) I don't know if it's because they've been back for a while and that first concert, no one knew if that was it or not. Or if it was because of the BSB fans. There were a ton of NKOTB shirts, not too many vintage though. The crowd seemed fairly evenly split between the two bands.
It was so nice to have someone with me this time! The last concert I went alone, 3 months pregnant. We screamed, laughed, sang and came home with sore ears and no voices. Somehow we forgot to have my husband take a pic of us before we left, but here are two pics I took from my crappy camera.
NKOTB was the first group I ever liked, and really the only one I've ever followed. I've been to three 3 Doors Down concerts and they are amazing, but I can't tell you any of their names except for the lead singer (Brad Arnold). NKOTB was it for me, the ultimate "boy band". I got the first album when I was 9 or 10. When other girls in my class switched to Vanilla Ice, I didn't. I knew who was better! I went to a Joey McIntyre concert in 2000. I have his solo albums and one of Jordan's. I still have videos from years ago, a few pins and some trading cards. I think I have a comic book somewhere.
Anyway, I was always a Donnie girl. I love him in Blue Bloods. He has definitely aged well :) He loves the crowd, the crowd loves him!

Ohhhhh.... NKOTB, my friend had a Poster on her wall growing up. I wasn't allowed one (my mother had Laura Ashley'd my room).... I was insanely jealous.
