Joey McIntyre, New Kids on the Block’s (NKOTB) enduring star, is balancing festive cheer with candid career updates. In an exclusive NextMinuteNews interview, the singer addresses his holiday tour, retirement speculation, and why NKOTB won’t join the Sphere residency trend—yet.
Joey McIntyre’s Holiday Tour: Nostalgia Meets Fresh Vibes
The 51-year-old icon is launching a solo holiday show blending seasonal classics, reimagined NKOTB hits, and original tracks. “Think cozy living room meets concert magic,” McIntyre says. The limited-run tour features orchestral arrangements and intimate performances, with potential surprise guest appearances.
Retirement Rumors Debunked: “Still Having Fun”
With NKOTB nearing their 40th anniversary, McIntyre dismisses retirement talks. “We’re pacing ourselves, but the brotherhood is stronger than ever,” he insists. The band prioritizes family time but remains active, teasing new music for 2025.
Why NKOTB Is Skipping the Sphere Residency
While U2 and Phish dominate Las Vegas’ high-tech Sphere, McIntyre confirms NKOTB isn’t planning a stint. “Our shows thrive on fan connection—sing-alongs, dance breaks, nostalgia. The Sphere’s spectacle isn’t our focus right now.”
What’s Next? NKOTB Music, Broadway Dreams
Beyond the holiday tour, McIntyre hints at NKOTB’s studio sessions and his own Broadway aspirations. “Acting and theater always call me back,” he shares.
The Legacy: Growing Up with Fans
Reflecting on NKOTB’s enduring appeal, McIntyre says, “We’ve shared decades with our audience. That bond is irreplaceable.”
Catch his holiday tour this winter—and expect more NKOTB magic ahead.
