Don't text during a Hedley show, okay? (40 photos)

Or Jacob Hoggard will call your mom

Jacob Hoggard wants to make love to 94 percent of us.

At least that’s what the Hedley front man told the Sault audience Friday night during the Canada Day Kicker hosted by The Tech at The Yard.

He also takes issue with concert-goers who insist on texting during the band’s performance.

In fact, he ‘borrowed’ one front row fan’s phone and proceeded to call her mother before instructing the crowd to “stop texting during a Hedley show!”

The Abbotsford, British Columbia multi award-winning band played to approximately 2,000 on Canada Day with opening acts Dustin Jones and the Rising Tide, and Toronto’s The Beaches.

Saturday, July 2, The Yard will play host to Kira Isabella with special guests Autumn Hill and River Town Saints.
