The New Kids on the Block come to town!!!

Well at least on of the former New Kids on the Block was in Visalia last week...

First of all I hate malls...WITH A PASSION! I probably have gone to the mall twice in the last three years and one of those times was last Friday.... And wouldn't you know there was a concert going on....Not just any concert mind you this was Jordan Knight formly of the 80's teen boy band New Kids on the Block...(holy shit what a long fall from the top it must have been!!!) When he came out onto the stage I realize just how sad this was, yet it was like a train wreck and I just had to watch part of it.

Years ago he was in one of the most popular groups of all time, and now the lighting from Gottchalks was brighter than his star. I imagined his camper parked in the back lot of the mall, corn nuts and condoms littering the floor.

His dancing prowess had deformed into a half-hearted electric slide while he sang.

After each song, there was a brief question and answer session. Girls said things into a mic such as "are you and your brother still single?" "Jordan, you are SO fine!" & "Can I have your physical address, not your mailing address?"

I'm guessing that Jordan has either done a ton of blow or has a five year olds attention span because every time someone asked him a question, the mc would have to yell his name three or four times before he would stop looking at the palm trees and Starbucks sign. He was spaced out. The only time he got enthused by a question was when he answered back, "No girl, YOU fine!!!!!" ... Hey perhaps R. Kelly can give him a few pointers on avoiding child rape charges.

It was just so dame funny yet so fucking sad....
