Joey talks to us about the band’s collaboration with the Backstreet Boys, their upcoming joint tour and a boyband revival. Next year, New Kids On The Block and Backstreet Boys will bring their NKOTBSB collaboration to the UK.
We spoke to NKOTB member Joey McIntyre about the tour, their joint Greatest Hits and much more.
How has it been touring with Backstreet Boys in the States? Do you all get along well?
Yeah, like I said, we got along marvoulously. It was a blast. We’re just a bunch of guys getting to do what we love every night – performing, on the road, to sold-out arenas. It doesn’t really get much better than that!
It is also a challenge, as lucky as it is, you have to stay on your game, you’re away from home, away from your families. There’s sacrifices along the way, but we’re playing at the height of the game. It’s an awesome thing.
