Phoenix, AZ (June 3, 2008) – After more than a decade apart, New Kids On The Block; Joey McIntyre, Donnie Wahlberg, Danny Wood and Jordan and Jonathan Knight, have reunited for a new album and world tour. The tour will make a stop in Glendale to perform at Jobing.com Arena on Monday, October 13. The show will begin at 8:00pm.

New Kids On The Block have sold more than 80 million albums worldwide -- including back-to-back international #1 songs, 1988’s Hangin’ Tough and 1990’s Step By Step -- and a series of crossover smash R&B, pop hits like “You Got It (The Right Stuff),” “Cover Girl,” “Didn’t I (Blow Your Mind This Time),” “Hangin’ Tough,” “I’ll Be Loving You,” “Step By Step” and “Tonight.”

The group split in 1994, but has recently reunited in the recording studio to create new music with an album expected to be released this Fall. Their first new music, the single “Summertime” was released on May 13.

On May 16, fans received a sneak peak of the concerts with the group’s first public performance together in 15 years live on NBC’s ‘TODAY’ Show. The reunion of all five members of the famed 90s group that sold millions of albums and sparked a worldwide phenomenon was enthusiastically embraced by screaming fans.
