Considering DealBreaker is actually a front for someone's not exactly legal hedge fund that invests in boy band memorabilia (we raised our capital by blackmailing select readers into giving us money), I'm not quite sure how missed this:

That's right everyone, New Kids On The Block ringing the closing bell at the NYSE yesterday. We hear former CEO John Thain, who describes himself as NKOTB's "#1 fan," was not only instrumental in securing the appearance (a deal he started working on prior to joining Merrill Lynch and continued to oversee at night and on weekends through April), but pulled some strings that will result in a repeat of the following, today at 4:30, in Greg Flemming's office.

Nothing says hot boybander like a receding hairline!

In fairness, NKOB was the first pop concert I ever went to (at DisneyWorld none the less). Come to think of it: it may actually be my first memory ever. Now that's scary.

ok people, HH time. Get it together.

The fat bald one is the inspiration for Johnny Drama. It is Donnie Wahlberg.
