1) New Kids on the Block is a boy band (now a man band) that rose out of the rough streets of Boston and was built around a young rapper named Donnie Wahlberg. The rest of the group was filled in with talented friends, and for a short while, his brother Mark was in the band. The group disbanded in 1994 and reunited in 2007. Top songs include “You Got It (The Right Stuff)” and “Step by Step.” Brothers Donnie and Mark have a growing quick-serve restaurant chain with their chef/brother Paul called Wahlburgers, which has a location in Pittsburgh at the Block Northway. The burgers are in the North Hills, and the concert is at PPG Paints Arena. The Mixtape Tour 2019 also features Salt-N-Pepa, Tiffany, Debbie Gibson, and Naughty by Nature. 7:30 p.m. 1001 Fifth Ave., Uptown. (RH)
2) Every connoisseur of vintage TV comedy knows Mama, the cantankerous crone created by actress Vicki Lawrence on “The Carol Burnett Show.” In the 1980s, she had her own sitcom, “Mama’s Family”—and now she’s back, live and on stage, in the touring production titled Vicki Lawrence & Mama: A Two-Woman Show. Lawrence, no longer young but skilled as ever, plays both women but probably not at the same time. She reports that Mama has a new set of opinions to vent about the new age we now inhabit. Listen carefully, because Mama shall sermonize only once, in a 3 p.m. Sunday matinee at The Palace Theatre. 21 W. Otterman St., Greensburg. (MV)
