Getting Our Minds (and Hair) Right

Time now to recap for you the Saskatoon version of the New Kids on the Block concert. This post details, as Donnie says, "getting our minds right."

When you are in Saskatoon and need some hootchie factor for concerts, visit Jodi in Martensville. She has a salon in her basement, a really cute daughter, and she will make you iced tea or tea, whatever you prefer. This is Jodi making us iced tea.

(Note: in Canada, iced tea has sugar in it, it's not just cold tea. I am sure that is a Canadian-ism.) Anyway, we heart Jodi. As Jen says, "Jodi doesn't just give you a good hair cut, it's like a hair strategy."

These photos are proof that the hootchie factor exists.
Before (thanks Jodi for the leopard slippers):

I was actually afraid that when I went into the Midtown mall looking like this (yikes!) that I was going to run into Jordan. Can you imagine how terrible it would be to see your favorite boy band singer while in yoga pants without makeup!!?? It strikes fear into my heart.
After:

Our brother, who went to Credit Union Centre to get his Neil Young tickets, informed us that at 5:30 (two hours before the show), there were tons of "hot girls" waiting for the New Kids. Shout out if that was you.

We had supper before the show at the Radisson Hotel. Grant took this picture of us:

Service was SUPER slow at the hotel restaurant, but we made it to the show in time.

Note the large amount of minivans that appear to be surrounding us:


Inside the arena, there appeared to be similar groups of people: 1) guys who went with a girl because they were hoping to get lucky; 2) pregnant women; 3) VERY pregnant women; 4) guys looking to get lucky but not with ladies; 5) women who brought their kids (two girls in front of us had shirts that read "I Support My Mommy's NKOTB Obsession"); 6) and girls like us, many wearing old skool New Kids shirts from back in the day.

We also saw this group of ladies, all in matching shirts. Are they good or what!!??
