I'm with you deb. I was born in 1973 also. We didn't call it tight rolled jeans. We called it peg. And yes I went and seen New Kids on the Block. Spent the night outside to have front row seats. And I loved Millie Vanillie. I still have their tape.

Talk about old. I know OF most of the stuff, but didn't watch or participate in most cause I was all grown up. I did have an odd fascination with ALF though.
