Come again?

So there are rumors that New Kids on the Block, the boy-band of the ’80’s, is launching a come-back. Hmmm… I loved NKOTB when I was what, 10 years old. And I can appreciate a good boy band song now and then. But I’m not sure that a come-back is such a grand idea. It seems like bands, singers, actors, etc, can’t just let a good thing rest. Why not rest on your laurels? I mean, I know you’re not supposed to generally, but what is a come-back going to do really? Most likely subject them to ridicule, maybe sell a few records and make some cash (the primary objective I’m sure) and make a few 20-something year old girls hearts a flutter. I don’t want to sound mean here, and I did really like them, even went to their concert, but honestly, Danny, Jon, Jordan, Joey, Donnie….let it go.

    My God, you even know thier names. Personally I don’t think the should have been around in the first place, so a comeback is just overkill, but then I dislike the majority of these manufactured pop bands (although not all, I’m quite partial to the Monkey’s :D )

    Ha, yes I do know all their names and life stories. Quite sad, but I think typical of girls who heart the boy bands. Ah yes, the Monkeys do have some great songs!
