Hedley Rocked D250
November 11, 2008 by Joanne Jordan
The D250 free concert, celebrating Democracy 250, was held Sept. 27 in the Parade Square in Halifax, and was a huge success.
Age was clearly not the deciding factor in who attended; people from two to 72 danced and clapped their hands as they listened to the music played during the performances of a variety of bands, and the crowd applauded wildly when Hedley, with lead singer Jacob Hoggard of Canadian Idol fame, took the stage.
Although the last act of the night kept concert-goers waiting before coming on-stage, music-lovers didn’t seem to mind. With his exposed arms showing off his many colourful tattoos, and his tight blue designer blue jeans, Hoggard delivered an exciting and energetic performance, just as expected. He jumped and bounced around in his trade-mark style, full of vim and vigor, even at the late hour.
