There were great questions about music, fitness, the backstreet boys but the most popular question, however, was about his underwear. In this clip Nick talks about his his ‘Haynes’ and covering his fans with glow in the dark paint.
When releasing new music today, half the battle is online promotion. However, contests, signed merch and giveaways aren’t always the best solutions. When working on their latest album, Hedley came up with a brilliant idea, they decided to make trailers.
It’s hard to prepare for an interview with Hedley. So in this interview, we threw caution to the wind, got a 24 of beer and broadcast the interview live on our USTREAM (andPOP.tv). Eventually Jacob, Dave and @jordans_life ended up talking about hairy legs, their newest music video and more.

It?s been a good couple of weeks for documentaries, which means it?s been a good couple of weeks for me.
Apart from being a movie freak in general, I?m a bit of a documentary fiend, and in the past few years documentaries have been very good to me.
In the beginning there was Michael Moore ? who I hate. He pretended to be a fat simple hick, but he was actually an ultra-left-wing activist in disguise. He made Bowling for Columbine, and won an Oscar for it.
I won?t go into too much detail except to say two things:
When I wrote my entrance essay for Ryerson Journalism, I had to write about the journalist who had inspired me to become a journalist. I said Michael Moore; I said he was the worst journalist on God?s green earth, and I wanted to do a better job than him.
I don?t know who read the essay, but it got me into the program.
Secondly, if you?ve seen Bowling for Columbine and believed one word Michael Moore said in it, I urge you to go to bowlingfortruth.com; it sort of corrects some of the falsehoods in the movie.
Don?t get me wrong, I love documentaries, and I hate guns, but whenever I see a documentary that isn?t telling the truth, it just makes me feel dirty all over.
After the success of Bowling for Columbine, documentaries became sexy again. These aren?t your parents? documentaries, here we?ve got guys eating nothing but McDonalds for 30 days (Super Size Me,) the genesis of surfing (Riding Giants,) and the birth of skateboarding (Dogtown and the Z-boys,) all of which are excellent and very edgy.
Two new ones come out this Tuesday on DVD, and each one is so good that despite my busy viewing schedule, I managed to see each one in theatres ? twice.
First of all, March of the Penguins.
This is sort of a classic old-school documentary, in what I tenderly dub National Geographic Style.
The whole thing is about penguins, and to the best of my knowledge there isn?t a single shot of a human in the whole thing.
Before you write it off as boring, let me tell you, penguins are fascinating and hilarious, especially when they fall over.
Did you know, for example, that they routinely go for months without eating? Or that in order to mate, they often walk more than 100 km?
If that?s not enough inducement, then maybe the fact that Morgan Freeman, fresh off his Academy Award winning performance in Million Dollar Baby, is the narrator.
If little birds in tuxedos seem a bit too tame for you, then perhaps I can tempt you with Murderball.
This one is my pick for Best Documentary at the Oscars this year.
It?s about quadriplegic rugby players, and these guys are
kind of crazy.
I recommended this one to a friend of mine a couple of months ago, and his initial response was, ?I don?t want to see another ?feel sorry for the disabled people? movie.?
I had a hard time explaining to him that Murderball couldn?t be further from that.
First of all, the quadriplegic players tend to swear ? a lot.
It?s an inspirational story about people overcoming disability and, in the end, competing at the Paralympics. But more importantly, it?s just a really cool story about guys who ride around in wheelchairs ramming into each other.
My favourite part about it was the fact that the movie focuses on the American paralympic team, and there?s sort of an ongoing grudge between the Americans and the Canadians.
They actually go to some length to portray the Canadians as the bad guys.
So through the whole movie, I got to cheer for the evil Canadians and secretly enjoy it every time they beat the Americans.
If neither of these docs suits your fancy, then I urge you to check out one of the excellent documentaries that have come out in the last couple of years. Each of the following docs are top notch, and while I don?t have time to go into much detail, take my word for it that each one is well worth seeing:
-Comedian ? About Jerry Seinfeld coming up with new material
-Standing in the Shadows of Motown ? About the band that was behind the Motown music movement
-The Corporation ? About corporations ? d?uh
-Spellbound ? About the freaky kids who compete in the National Spelling Bee in the U.S.
-Word Wars ? About semi-professional Scrabble players. These guys are really messed up
-Ringers ? a documentary about insanely obsessive Lord of the Rings fans.
I stand by each and every one of these movies. If you watch one and don?t like it, take my word for it, it?s not a problem with the movie, it?s a problem with you.
