A good many of those all apply to the later half of the 80's. But I remember every single one of them. And one very big noticable forgotten element. The tight rolling of your jean pants legs. |

I also went to a NKOTB concert. The year was 1991 though. My GF at the time dragged me to the show because she had to take her little sister. I caught Donnie's water bottle and gave it her. Boy was I a hit around the house. 55. You lost your virginity while uber cool Milli Vanilli was playing in the background. Yes, dbakke is too cool for school boys and girls. |
