The Owners' Manual | Issue 25 | End of Summer 2022

RHEA HIGHSMITH The best concert I’ve ever been to hands down is New Kids on the Block. The first time I saw them was in July of 1991 and the last time I saw them was in June 2022. I try to attend at least 6-7 shows per tour in different states to make it an adventure for my kids and me. Also, I try to get seats as close to the stage as possible for the interaction with the New Kids. As far as saving, I don’t splurge on most anything for myself year-round so I have no problem purchasing the 5-star package with VIP backstage access. One might think it’s a little excessive but when Donnie Wahlberg spots your daughter and comes to give her a fist bump every time he sees her it makes it all worth it. I’ll be cruising with the New Kids on the Block in October to a private island in Half Moon Cay, so I’d say I’m a super fan.
