Do you remember the 80s boyband called New Kids On The Block? A group from Boston that was formed by Donnie Wahlberg, Jordan and Jonathan Knight, Danny Wood and Joe McIntyre, hit the big lights with the massive success of their album Hangin’ Tough that was released in 1988. Since then NKOTB became the benchmark for high quality boyband music and they performed in Jakarta just a few years ago.

Meanwhile, the Backstreet Boys (BSB) come from the next generation of boy band which has also achieved a fair bit of tween super stardom. Both bands have been kicking back for some time but have finally come back and have made a major breakthrough by joining both groups together. They are now called NKOTBSB. These two different generation boy bands will perform at Jakarta on June 1 at MEIS, Ancol.
