    New Kids kick off ‘The Block’ in Toronto

    by W. Andrew Powell September 21, 2008
    by W. Andrew Powell September 21, 2008

    Fan favorite boy band New Kids on the Block kicked off their first tour in nearly fourteen years at Toronto’s Air Canada Centre on Thursday, September 2.

    With thousands of fans screaming for me, the band first made it big in the 80s and 90s before disbanding in June 1994. The quintet announced that they would be reuniting in April 2008, and released their new album, The Block, on September 2.

    Photos from the 2008 MuchMusic Video Awards

    One of Toronto’s biggest celebrity events took over the corner of Queen and John as the 2008 MuchMusic Video Awards brought fans and stars together for a night of music. And rain.

    The red carpet was a bit of a wash-out as a torrential downpouring of rain soaked the fans, celebs, and even the assembled media-types trying to get their sound bites and photos.

    2008 MMVAs – Quick photos

    by W. Andrew Powell June 16, 2008
    by W. Andrew Powell June 16, 2008

    Okay, so it was a busy, busy night. I just got home from the MuchMusic Video Awards and I ended up shooting just over 600 photos (not as many as some years, but enough to make sorting and editing a major job). I got images of nearly all the major attendees, including the New Kids on the Block, Rihanna, Rainn Wilson, Girlicious, Simple Plan and a bunch of others.
