    Terrible. For real. Played and boring.

  2. Ron says:

    I love it when the guys from the Elks Lodge perform. They’re real good.

  3. JennGush says:

    Hmmm… I’m laughing.

  4. Lesley says:

    LOL @ Ron’s comment!

    Lovely nostalgia trip but I don’t see a serious comeback here.

    And whoever set up the mics should be fired. Donny’s was loud as hell and you could barely hear Jordan and I’m really ten kinds of ashamed I ever knew and still remember whose voice belongs to whom.

    OMG. I am cringing right now

  7. Ceenitall says:

    Well that was just awful…. Bless their hearts.

  8. Diva says:

    Jordan looks like an Osmond!

    I was never a fan, so I have no point of reference. The women there seemed to love it, though!

    Ohhhkayyy. That was um…underwhelming. I was a die hard fan and I wanted to like their performance, I really did but that was sooo not green.

    Still, NKOTB. Squeee!!! 😀

    On second viewing, Joey sounds good and I actually prefer to hear him sing Please Don’t Go Girl in his tenor voice rather than his boyhood falsetto. The choreography wasn’t too bad imo but I hope their improve their live appearances.

    Ohhh Ohhhh Ohhhh thats bad
    SOO SOO SOOO bad

    IDIOTS! Why didn’t they try that when the boy band resurgance was at it’s height? The lamest thing was that it seemed so LATE 90s…. and they’re an EARLY 90s group. So what it came across to me like was a pathetic attempt to be like BSB and NSYNC — 10 years too late.

    You know, I didn’t actually mind it that much. I was a huge fan when I was younger and had a video of them performing a bunch of hits that I probably watched a thousand times. I agree with headache about the mics, I think that was a major problem right there, although it’s true that their singing wasn’t particularly “great”. *L* I did think the choreography was fine and will admit to getting a huge smile on my face when they sang The Right Stuff and did the choreography on it. I still think Jonathan is adorable as hell but am I the only one who thinks Danny is actually much (much!) better looking now than he was back in the day? I used to think he was seriously unattractive looking when they were at the height of their popularity but now… yum.

    Or is that just me?

  13. S. says:

    ok I was never a big fan but the new song is quite good! Reminds me of the Take That comeback single, has a nice laid back/uptempo ballad feel. Quite catchy. eek!

  14. Mairead says:

    That had a certain charming naffness about it 🙂

  15. Megan says:

    God, why perform in the rain? Who’s stupid idea was that?

    Also these guys are in their late 30’s now. Boybands were just that… BOYS. Doesn’t quite have the same effect when they’re all middle aged. I think they all look gorgeous, but the performance was rubbish.

  16. Sasha says:

    How about unnecessary? Like a condom machine in the Vatican.

  17. headache says:

    Elizabeth, you aren’t the only one. LOL Every boy band has the not so hot one and I always like him best. Nice to know I saw the potential in Danny. lol

  18. jess says:

    dont hate, haters (just teasin btw) 😉 lmao… i was a total nkotb fan when i was younger, just dont tell my friends lol!

  19. Gina says:

    QUIT HATING!!NKOTB’s still got it!! They were awsome! You go boys! Can’t wait for there new CD! I was a huge fan when I was 14 yrs old, and I STILL am at 30!!! 🙂

    I was a big fan of The New Kids On The Block back then. I didn’t get to see them perform on the show but I am sure that they did their thing. They do look good after all these years.
