Reunion? Well, maybe not. But who cares, lets assume the worst!

You know what's become the biggest money maker of the 21st century? Well, besides Steve Jobs. Nostalgia! It's hotter than a Britney Spears meltdown. Well, maybe not QUITE that hot, but it's way up there in Fahrenheit.

Legendary bands that were once at each other's throats get back together for multi-million dollar offers, and sell out stadiums around the world to generations past itching to nab a big stinking whif of the old days.

We've already heard the hype about Led Zeppelin and The Jackson 5 returning to the fold. But now it's just getting weird. New Kids On The Block want to hang tough, again? Even though they're all teetering around the age of 40. Donny, Joey, Jordan, and oh, forget it. They aren't NEW. Nor are they KIDS. And I could care less if they're on any BLOCK. Even if they did sell 50 millions records in about 5 years. They're totally the reason us whipper snappers wanted to hear all that heavy and angry music later in the 90s. So you can blame heinous crap like Limp Bizkit on "Hangin' Tough" and "Please Don't Go Girl." They were like 5 young Ben Afflecks singing lame ballads that were rejected by 80's hair bands.

But yeah, sure, I saw them in concert. I'll admit it. I was like 6 years old and bored of Legos, what do you expect? It was the thing to do then! We all did it. Even The Mercury's top shelf photographer, John Strickler!

It was quite an event actually. My family, Strickler's family, and some other friends all spent a luxurious evening together, venturing to see the New Kids together in a limo. Of course, I slept through about 1/3 of the show, while John stood on his feet singing the words to every song, all night long. At least, that's how I remember it, memory might have skewed me a bit.

But both John and I have moved on to bigger and better things. New Kids? Bah, we don't wanna see that. Unless of course, you're willing to give us a limo ride. We'd probably accept under such dire circumstances.
