Dust off your stone wash jeans and WHAM! t-shirts! Get out that brush to make that rad ass side ponytail, ladies! New Kids on the Block just released the first round of tour dates for their reunion tour. More dates are expected to be announced in the coming weeks, so don’t cry if you don’t see your city on the list yet.

 

Tour dates according to Pollstar:

  • May 2008
  • 17 – East Rutherford, NJ – Izod Center/Z100’s Zootopia
  • 18 – Mansfield, MA – Tweeter Center

 

  • September 2008
  • 20 – Montreal, Quebec – Bell Centre
  • 21 – Toronto, Ontario – Air Canada Center
  • 23 – East Rutherford, NJ – Izod Center
  • 24 – Uniondale, NY – Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum
  • 26 – Boston, MA – TD Banknorth Garden
  • 27 – Atlantic City, NJ – Borgata Hotel and Casino Event Center

 

  • October 2008
  • 4 – Rosemont, IL – Allstate Arena

Nearly eight years after her “Twenty Four Seven Tour” wrapped, Rock & Roll/Soul legend, Tina Turner, is ready to hit the road again. She announced her plans to return to the stage at a recent taping of the Oprah show in Las Vegas. Could it have been that wildy raved about comeback performance with Beyoncé at the Grammys that made the 68-year-old Turner come out of retirement? I’d guess it definitely helped but whatever the reason, fans are amped! The tour will kick off in Kansas City on Oct 1st. The rest of the dates have not been announced yet, though, they are expected any day now as tickets go on sale May 12th. I’ll post them as soon as they come my way.
