JustMusic.fr: There are more boy band, is that some make you think about your debut?
Danny Wood (NKOTB): In America I know "One Direction", "The Wanted" or the "Big Time Rush". They are different groups of our generation dancing and singing, we were "entertainers".

Danny Wood (NKOTB): The record industry is becoming more difficult and it is true that for the time we did a lot of TV shows and concerts in the United States. It is a challenge to successfully sell records today and we hope we can showcase our album in many countries as possible. Even if you do not find in stores now, with new technology, you can find it on the net, on iTunes for example.
JustMusic.fr: Do you think the next album already?
Danny Wood (NKOTB): We released "The Block" in 2008 and "10" last year so we will have to wait two years before leaving the next.

Step by step: The childhood home of the Knight brothers

It's not listed in any tourist guide, but NKOTB fans flock to the house where the Knight brothers grew up By Johnny Diaz Globe Staff / November 15, 2008 When Kari Lusso and her trio of girlfriends flew from Seattle to Boston for the New Kids on the Block concert, they had to make a quick detour. On a rainy Saturday night, the friends drove their rental car to 10 Melville Ave. As they stood in front of the Victorian house, they shrieked and giggled like little girls. The commotion? They were at the former home of the band's brothers Jonathan and Jordan Knight. When they rang the bell, they got a quick tour. "It was going from 31 to 13," Lusso said.

New Kids on the Block singer Joey McIntyre has been in the music business for over 24 years and has seen some friends battle with addiction in the limelight, including Backstreet Boy A.J. McLean who recently made the decision to enter rehab. "A.J. is a sweet kid, good kid and extremely talented, so we're all there for him," said Joey. AJ admitted himself earlier this month before heading on the huge NKOTB/BSB tour. Young star Aaron Carter is reportedly seeking professional help as well to deal with some unknown "emotional and spiritual issues," and Joey commended Aaron for making that step. "To me it's usually a good thing when someone can take some time and retreat from it all and, you know, just get a little bit more centered," Joey said, encouragingly. Justin Bieber has managed to stay clean in his career thus far and Joey gave some advice to the star for staying on the right track. "Hopefully, kids like Justin… there...
