DISer chapter of NKOTB anonymous, part 3... still goin' strong!

[hmdavid]

I never thought of that! As sad as it is you are probably right. Maybe they could set up UFC style rings and let the fans battle it out. "Let the best fans win!"

I've been vocal in my dislike of it but my daily life and moral compass hasn't been thrown off balance over a tour.

The comment on youtube, "Somewhere Justin Timberlake is laughing his *** off" made me .

It is one thing to be vocal in your dislike, but something completely different to verbally attack the fans of the other group! I have seen it on twitter from both fan groups. So sad and strange to me, but I suppose it is the ones that have nothing else to do with their time. We have all read about them...

My sister rips BSB everytime they appear onstage with NKOTB. I can only imagine what's going to happen if she says anything about them at the concert. I gots my fighting gloves ready!

That precious baby will be so much better than a cruise! Although, I have to admit I still get bitter to this day that I had to cancel a 7 night Disney cruise and a Disney vacation 3.5 yrs ago because I got pregnant.

Ha ha! I feel better!

Well tonight's the night! We're on our way to be induced. Holy moly I am nervous!

I'll post some pictures when we get home. I'm sure we'll have some on Facebook too!

As for crazy fans....on Jordan's Facebook check out the comments by Deb Debow. Calling Jordan's wife names Crazy!

Can't remember if we have any cruisers... if so, HAVE FUN!!!

So, so quiet around here! Hope everyone is doing well! Who has been to a show so far? Reviews???

 

[kte28]

It certainly has been quiet! No shows for me. I've been way too busy with school and getting my new home all set up. Seems like it's getting some great reviews, though. Hope anyone going has a blast!

Hi everyone! I went to the Baltimore show on Sunday and I had a blast! I was the whole time. There was a lot of energy in the building.

Ashelynn Huff was up first. I'm kinda meh regarding her performance. I loved Jordin Sparks. She looked and sounded great.

The guys went on at 9p.m. The show started with indidvidual photos of all nine on white drapes. When it dropped they were on the lift in the air. They opened with a mash up of Single/ The One.

Throughout the show they alternated between NKOTB and BSB. While I'm not really into BSB, I thought it was a good way of doing the show. Donnie did not disappoint when it came to making the ladies swoon including me.

The stage has two lifts- one on each end. I was every time they were up there.

During the opening I counted heads and only saw eight. When they were doing Tonight, Jon was brought on stage wearing a leg brace. Donnie says he should back in action for the D.C. stop.

The guys do go into the audience. Donnie was near my section and someone offered him a sip of their beer.

If you want me to add to my review and post the set list let me know.

Hello Ladies So last night was my NKOTBSB show at Mohegan Sun. I was feeling a bit different going into it wondering how it would be changed by adding BSB to the tour. I went it knowing their music but hoping that I would really like them after. I'll get to that part.

So Jordin Sparks was not at our show. We got a group called The Real Goonies, they were a rap group that is new on the scene in CT I guess. They were pretty good. They had a cute photographer We did have the Ashlynn Huff. She danced around in a gymnastics leotard, which i thought was strange, but whatever works for you I guess. The guys were about 15 minutes late coming out.

My seats.........I waited until last minute and bought tickets on Ebay from some guy in Utah.......they were INCREDIBLE. I was right at the gate that goes around the stage in the 3rd row. So they let the people on the end seat stand up to the gate (which was me) and everyone else could stand behind them. So basically there was about 3 feet between me and them. They were better than my seats when I did 5*. The show was amazing, they came out together with both groups on the stage. But as you all know they alternate back and forth during the show. I felt like it was a bit BSB heavy and I got tired of it quickly. They did not know how to interact with the fans it didn't seem. NKOTB interacted with the people that were right at the stage, but BSB almost didn't know how to. I was really not impressed with them. You can definitely tell the difference in "polish" between the two groups. NKOTB has it all over BSB in my opinion. I read a review from someone in CT this morning and she favored BSB but I'm betting that she like them better anyway.

Donnie winked and waved to me and later blew me a kiss. He really is an amazing performer.

After the show we bought tickets to his afterparty which was held at a nightclub inside Mohegan Sun. The concert got over about 30 minutes late so he didn't arrive until about 45 minutes late. He was incredible as ever. I got my hug and he kissed me on the cheek. I didn't get a pic this time because my battery died during the concert and I couldn't find my extra battery. Even though the afterparty was short (the placed closed at 1:00 a.m.) it was worth it to have a moment with him.

That is my review...........no comparison between NKOTB and BSB!!!!!!!!! NKOTB by a landslide. If I was on the fence about next years cruise I have completely jumped off it and I am definitely going (cash is already being set aside for the dates to come out)

I hope that everyone that has shows coming up have an amazing time.

I am two weeks away from going to Disney for two weeks. We leave on June 17th and come back just before July 1. So excited to be able to be away for awhile.

That's my fear of paying big bucks to go!

Thanks for the reviews ladies.

going to Mohegan on Thursday and the Fenway concert next friday. My dad got me comp tickets through mohegan so I have no idea what the seats are...

 

[Marshmelo]

So I got my NKOTBSB cd/dvd and my Jordan Knight cd in the mail yesterday I loved reading the thanks from all the guys in the cd booklet. AJ cracked me up with "I will see you all on the big pee pee stage." I'm not particularly a bsb's fan, but they do seem fun and funny from reading their thank you's and watching the dvd that came with the cd.

 

[ilovefh]

Great review Crystal! Makes me want to go!! The tickets available right now are so far back that I can't justify the expense!!

Jenny- I'm ready for the Jordan review!! Did you girls have fun?

We're keeping busy here with the new baby...who is almost a month old. Time has flown! At my shower a friend gave me tons of clothes she made with NKOTB on them. He is wearing his first shirt today!



I also got some good news today! Like everywhere else in the nation our county is making HUGE cuts to schools. Since I was last hired in my department there was a good chance my position would be cut. Because of this I began applying to schools in Osceola County. I even limped around their job fair 10 days after James was born! Well it paid off! I officially have 2 jobs currently for the fall. I have my job back for the fall (almost an hr drive from my house and more than an hour to the daycare) and I have been offered a job in Osceola County (14 minute drive from my house and 13 minutes from the daycare). So once all the paperwork is set I'm going to go for the school close to us. It was actually my first choice school because it is so close!

Hope everyone else is doing well!

Jordan looked great and I was next to the stage but I had an awful time. Getting there was a pain because we had to take the train in and there was a gas leak that delayed the train for 2 hours. An hour ride took 3 hours. Then my sister had too much to drink and acted like an idiot & got angry with me and said I ruined her night and proceeded to curse at me & tell me off for the rest of the night. By the last couple songs (in a set list that was all of 45 minutes maybe), I wasn't even looking at Jordan. I was texting Kris saying I couldn't wait to leave. She will NOT be coming with me to NKOTBSB.

 

[hmdavid]

ilovefh... Congrats on the baby! He is precious! Congrats on teh new teaching job as well. It will be nice to cut down on some of your commute so you can spend more time with that beautiful baby!

Jenny... sorry you had such a bad time. Sisters can be a total pita sometimes, can't they? Did he sing just off the new CD or old stuff, too? I wasn't sure if there would be any performances since it was a release party. Glad he sang a few!

 

[cruiserkaren]

Ouch Jenny, that blows.



Love the baby clothes!! What an adorable little "kid"!

 

[jenny105]

The funny thing is, she's mad at me. If anything, it should be the other way around. I would never talk to my sister the way she talked to me that night, drunk or not. Apparently she'd had enough of me 'correcting her behavior.' All I did was tell her to chill out a little bit and ease off the drinking if she even wanted to remember the concert. I do not understand people who need to get trashed at concerts. You paid money to see it. Waste of money in my opinion.

Heather - He did about four songs off the new album, the only one I knew was 'Let's Go Higher.' Then he asked what was everyone's favorite song on the album and I was hoping he wouldn't put the microphone in my face cause I would've been like 'uhhhhhh.' He did 'Give It To You' and 'The Right Stuff' too. That was it! It was cool to be so close to him but I wasn't all that impressed and I swore he was lip syncing sometimes.

Quick reminder that NKOTB(SB) are on Today this morning. East coast has it right now, we get it in about an hour. The girls had friends sleepover last night and they are playing wii on the tv that I want to watch the performance on. Grrrrrrr... only my girls understand my fangirl ways!

 

[jenny105]

Completely forgot about them on the Today show. Ah well.

I'm contemplating selling my NKOTBSB tickets. I'm just not that into it and got them just cause I felt like I should be going. I saw the set list and all those slow songs in a row? Ugh. Plus, since the show is in Atlantic City, it will cost me a small fortune between a hotel, dinner, drinks, etc. I'm going to tweet that I'm looking to sell them so if you ladies can retweet, it'd be appreciated.
