And Hedley is going to play at the Vancouver Olympics. Yessss!!!
I'm bummed Hedley is playing big theatres and arenas, now -- for selfish reasons. I always expected to see them in a small venue (because I will see them some day).

I'll probably be going to see Jason Castro on Jan. 28. by the way.

If they come to the States, they would probably be playing a smaller venue. So there's hope. Where's Jason playing on the 28th?

I guess that's true. Right now I don't know of any plans they have to come here. The last time they were here was with Yellowcard, I think. It was in Boston that Jacob fell while doing a handstand on Yellowcard's trailer and messed up his leg.

(can't watch the Hedley video if there is blood or pain, lol)

Don't know what this is exactly, but it's hilarious.

(just checked twitter and it was from today - too funny Cale is cracking up in the background)

With Hedley, there is always either blood or pain. Occasionally there is also Jagermeister.

There's no blood, really. There is a lot of pain, though. I think it's worth seeing. Jacob singing (and being a big baby) is worth it. Oh, and getting slapped.

Thanks for posting the videos, SleepinIn. I knew that I could count on you!

And I now have two versions of a song that I wasn't that fond of at the beginning. I must admit that it's really growing on me though! (Funny that the Oliver-Sebastian version is called Alien Like You, while the version from the show is called only Alien! I couldn't find it at first on iTunes.)
