Paula Abdul, Boyz II Men, Dream in same festival lineup because it's 2001

In case you were under the impression that the nation had finally grown out of its "the '90s were so much better" phase, the Summer MixTape Festival in Hershey, Pennsylvania, has announced a lineup that's more '90s than a Lisa Frank notebook.  

Performers includes Paula Abdul, New Kids on the Block, Boyz II Men, O-Town, a reunited Dream and -- wait for it -- Ryan Cabrera. 

This marks Dream's first performance since 2001. On Twitter, the girl group attempted to make even more nostalgic by inviting former TRL host Carson Daly to the fest too. (He, uh, hasn't responded.)

The Summer Mixtape Festival takes place on August 6, with tickets going on sale April 29.
