Friday, August 15, 2008 @ Sasktel Summer Invasion - National Wakeboard Championships, Wascana Park, Regina SK
Lakeshore Drive.

http://www.summerinvasion.ca/index.php
Rain or shine event
Tickets: Advance 4-Day Weekend Pass (August 14-17) at http://www.ticketmaster.ca/event/110040AE70E484E6?artistid=1224003&major...
Tickets are $25.00 - hildren 10 and under free admission when accompanied by a parent or guardian (must be ticketholder)

There’s no denying that Hedley’s new album, Famous Last Words, due October 30 on Universal Music, shows an edge, a purpose, a defined personality that only comes from experience and development. So while they continue their legendary goofball rock ‘n roll antics, their music is evolving and maturing to a whole new level.

Famous Last Words is filled with sweet turns and surprises. There’s the take-no-shit, barreling-rock single “She’s So Sorry,” the R&B/soul ballad “For The Nights I Can’t Remember,” the reggae nod “Never Too Late” and punk-spat twits’ tale “Narcissist” — all linked by the rock band’s tight playing and frontman Jacob Hoggard’s unique vocals.
