No, that wasn’t the tornado alarm — that was just me shrieking over the fact that NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK ARE COMING TO ASSEMBLY HALL. Can you even imagine running into them at Za’s? Or getting a quick workout at the Arc? Or going out drinking at Kam’s?!?! I’m out the door and unable to elaborate on how incredibly mind-blowing this is, but tickets go on sale this Saturday (2/7) at 10 a.m., and you know you wanna be in a row where Joey can see your homemade sign professing your feelings for him, so buy ‘em fast. There’s some sort of American Express pre-sale for their April 5th show that I’m highly uninformed about, but if anyone knows the key to closer tickets, lemme know.

UPDATE:
Right stuff…wrong price. Check this out:
Apparently, the recession has hit everyone….except the people involved with the New Kids on The Block tour. Fitting, since they’re stuck in the ’80s. (Zing!) Seriously though — just because people in our town can waste money on unnecessary goods like overpriced cupcakes doesn’t mean they’re going to shell out hundreds to be reminded of their childhood. Spice Girls tickets were only $100, after all. Which I only know ‘cuz I, uh, heard they were, uh, that much.
Thanks, oddly enough, to my mother for sending the above tip in an e-mail, titled “Prices are so high, we do have an American Express??” Gotta love a mom’s unconditional need to bring boy bands to their daughters.
