Face the Music Tour

The "Face the Music Tour" was a worldwide concert tour by the band NKOTB, also known as New Kids On The Block, undertaken in late 1993 to mid-1994 in support of their album Face the Music. It was their last tour for nearly fifteen years until they reunited in 2008 for .

Overview

Although "Face the Music" was not a commercial hit, the group went on tour to support the album and reconnect with their fanbase. While they retained massive popularity throughout Europe, Asia, and the United Kingdom, they struggled to find bookings at venues in North America. They ended up performing in nightclubs and theaters, which was a far cry from the sports stadiums and arenas they had become accustomed to playing in at the height of their fame.

During the group's touring of Spain in early 1994, group member Jonathan Knight dropped out and retired to his farm in Massachusetts, struggling with panic attacks and anxiety. To explain his absence, the band stated on an appearance on The Arsenio Hall Show that he had been injured after falling off a horse.
