In a galaxy on the other side of grunge there was once a world where shoulder pads and big hair were legal, where rock was uncomplicated and where girls just wanted to have fun. Some folks say it still exists. The LIVE NIGHTS music series and 96.9 Jack FM presents HONEYMOON SUITE in concert on Friday, June 27th in the Theatre Show Lounge at the Cascades Casino in Langley. Advance tickets are available for $27 (plus GST) from Casino Guest Services.

HONEYMOON SUITE was formed in 1982 by Johnnie Dee and Derry Grehan and the debut self titled album hit the markets in 1984 just as MuchMusic and MTV were defining television as the major marketing force in pop music. The band wrote great pop songs, looked sharp, performed awesomely and produced four top ten singles in Canada: "New Girl Now", "Burning in Love", "Wave Babies", and "Stay in the Light". The album went platinum, earned them a Juno Award and the single "New Girl Now" cracked the top 50 in the US and was used in the John Cusack film One Crazy Summer.

The second album The Big Prize (1986) went platinum instantly in Canada and earned them Group of the Year at the Juno Awards. The band was in demand everywhere and they had songs featured on Miami Vice and wrote a song for Martin Sheen’s film The Wraith and for Mel Gibson’s Lethal Weapon 2. They had fun, that’s for sure. Other albums followed, with Lemon Tongue, the last studio album in Canada, released in 2002. A superb anthology of their best music titles Feel it Again was released just last year. HONEYMOON SUITE has had some unavoidable member changes over the years but the original group is back together playing the way they always played. Great rock ‘n roll!

So break out the leopard print skirt, frilly socks and stiletto shoes and enjoy the ride when the LIVE NIGHTS music series and 96.9 Jack FM presents HONEYMOON SUITE in concert on Friday, June 27th in the Theatre Show Lounge at the Cascades Casino in Langley.
