NKOTB take two

13.07.2009

This is technically a 'travel blog', so I'm not sure if this story should be published. But it was one of the greatest moments of my life that I waited 2 decades for. So I'm posting it anyway.

Im recently went to Ottawa to see the New Kids On The Block in concert as well as a meet and greet. However, it didn't go so well. On the way to the concert, I tripped and fell neck deep into a ditch full of water. Leaving me soaking we for the show as well as rendering my ipod, cell phone and camera useless. So when they came back to Toronto for the summer tour, I just had to go. And I'm so glad I did, as it was AMAZING!

I arrived at Ontario Place/Moslon Ampitheatre early for the M&G this time too. Fortunately, the closest body of water to the vicinity is Lake Ontario (not Lake Erie!) and its rather difficult to trip and fall into it. I bonded pretty closely to a gang of girls coming to the concert together, We'll definitely return together next time nkotb comes to town, whenever that is. After collecting my tickets, it was time for the pre-show party. This one was much better than the one in Ottawa. I felt that they tried harder. The room was nicer, it included a great dinner, and FREE BOOZE! I also ran into a girl I went to college with many years ago. I later met the band once again. I learned from the last time that if you want to stand next to a particular band member, you have to run to him right away and don't budge. So thats exactly what I did with Joey...
