Calling New Kids on the Block a boy band when all of the members are in their 50s might be a stretch these days, but when you have five middle-aged men dancing and singing like they’re teenagers on a muggy Kansas City night, they get honorary young man status. The five members of NKOTB knocked out a setlist of favorites new and old as part of their Magic Summer Tour Tuesday night and brought along their late ’80s pop contemporaries Paula Abdul and DJ Jazzy Jeff along for the ride, and our photographer Kylee Gregg was their to capture it all.
