NKOTB Update

Ahhh... the boys just keep it comin'!!! Gotta love it!!! No news yet on a summer 2010 NKOTB tour but I'm keeping my fingers crossed. I just hope that if and when they tour again, I'll have the money to buy VIP5* tickets for a show. That's the only way to go when seeing the whole group. :-) In addition to a constant stream of Twitter tweets from the guys, they're doing a charity event on December 20 for Toys for Tots. I can't make it because it's in a different state and I don't have that kind of money to spend for a ticket and the trip. Donnie keeps tweeting about new things coming... we're just holding our breath, waiting for news. Boy, he sure knows how to keep the excitement and anticipation flowing. Donnie is working on some solo stuff. He's released one song so far with more to come, I'm sure. Danny finished his album in which all proceeds will go to Komen for the Cure. I got a copy. Great album and great cause! If you're familiar with the singer Jamie Walters and like his music (he never really got super big) then you'll enjoy Danny's album. It's the same kind of sound. The biggest thing happening is Joe's new album. He just mentioned that some copies will be available tomorrow (only 3000 copies) so I've gotta make sure I jump on that and get a copy ordered. In addition, he says (according to his blog and website) that he'll be announcing tour dates soon. Sweet! He's going to do a solo tour (probably a fairly short one) pretty soon here. Again, I'm hoping that I can get the money to buy a ticket. If he does a show in Detroit, I'll go down and stay with my aunt and uncle the night of the show and possibly the night before if my work schedule will allow it. I've seen Joe in concert by himself one other time (when I was in college). I really enjoyed it and would love to see him again. Jonathan and Jordan are remaining pretty low key other than Jordan doing a "Jordan Idol" thing in various cities where he's giving people the chance to audition to sing backup on the album he's working on. Jonathan is back to living his "normal" life and enjoying it during the NKOTB down time. I guess that's pretty much the latest update on NKOTB. Keep watching for their tweets for the latest and most current updates.

Also, check out Joe's video.
