Boyz II Men, New Kids on the Block Will Play Joint Show in Brooklyn Next Summer
Paula Abdul, too!

DOWNTOWN BROOKLYN, NY — We're just gonna go ahead and call Brooklyn's hottest concert of summer 2017 — for '90s kids, at least! — as the joint New Kids on the Block, Boyz II Men and Paula Abdul show at Barclays Center on June 27.
Tickets for "The Total Package Tour" — a response to the New Kids' "Package Tour" in 2013 — go on sale Saturday, Nov. 19 at 10 a.m. on Ticketmaster.com.
After performing at Barclays, the power trio will head to Long Island on July 7.

"Our fans know we love to bring them a party, and this tour is no exception," New Kids member Donnie Wahlberg said in a statement issued Tuesday. "It's not just a show, it's an experience. Paula Abdul is such a pop icon and Boyz II Men are one of the best R&B acts of all time. It's going to be a night of hit after hit, and we can’t wait to deliver the 'Total Package' to our fans!"
Abdul and Boyz II Men will open for the New Kids, and are sure to perform several of their hit '90s singles, according to tour organizers. So get your Tamagotchis out and clip your hair back with 10 butterfly clips and ready your ticket-buying mechanisms for Saturday morning, 'cause you're not going to want to miss this.
