To celebrate their 20th anniversary — like sands through the hourglass, so are the gays of our quickly disappearing lives — all five of the Backstreet Boys are reuniting for a new album and a cruise.

With prodigal Boy Kevin Richardson back after six years, BSB, namely perennial bad Boy A.J. McLean, broke the news on Good Morning America earlier today: “Next year, just so you guys know, there will be a BSB cruise next year, in October, with all five.”

The Boys — who by this point are grown-ass men but who’s splitting hairs…especially when they’re thinning —  confirmed as much via their Twitter.

Cue high-pitched girlish wail. We’re not really about that music cruise life,  but hobnobbing with Brian at the all-you-can-eat shrimp buffet and dodging Nick’s P.O. to get stoned in the captain’s quarters sound too good to resist.

Oh, and Howie’s cool too…
