New Kids on the Block (NKOTB), a boy band phenomenon in the late \u201980s and early \u201990s has announced a Las Vegas residency for 2025.<\/p>\n

In related news, a significant number of middle-aged ovaries just exploded.<\/p>\n

NKOTB\u2019s residency at Dolby Live at Park MGM, runs June 2 through July 5 and November 1-15, 2025. The residency will be called, \u201cThe Right Stuff,\u201d because everything has to be political now.<\/p>\n

New Kids on the Block was personally responsible for an estimated 26.4 million sexual awakenings in 1989. Backstreet Boys, NSYNC and Boyz II Men picked up the slack.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

No announcement of a Las Vegas residency would be complete with someone in PR sliding in a gem like this, \u201cThe NKOTB are thrilled to stage their first ever residency at this state-of-the-art venue, promising a production fully unique to Las Vegas, and designed to immerse attendees in a heart pounding night of hits, spectacle, celebration and showmanship.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hey, they didn\u2019t say \u201cimmersive,\u201d exactly.<\/p>\n

Today we learned die-hard New Kids on the Block fans are called \u201cBlockheads.\u201d We aren\u2019t sure that word means what they think it means.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Unlike a lot of groups doing residencies in Las Vegas, New Kids on the Block has all its original members: Siblings Jonathan and Jordan Knight, Joey McIntyre, Donnie Wahlberg and Danny Wood.<\/p>\n

The group\u2019s live shows actually get positive reviews. The guys, now in their 50s, aren\u2019t quite as peppy as they were in their heyday 30 years ago, but who is?<\/p>\n
