New Kids on the Block
Bio
New Kids on the Block is a boy band, and enjoyed enormous success in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Assembled in Boston in the mid-1980s by producer Maurice Starr, the members consisted of brothers Jordan Knight and Jonathan Knight, along with Joey McIntyre, Donnie Wahlberg, and Danny Wood.
The group went on to sell over 70 million albums, generated hundreds of millions in concert revenues, and paved the way for acts like Backstreet Boys and *NSYNC. That is some legacy. It is even rumored that the New Kids on the Block may reunite here in 2008.
