Honeymoon Suite celebrate the ’80s by playing the hits

E-mail Print PDF

It was a hot long weekend Sunday, Feb. 16, so a good sized crowd wanted to celebrate it ’80s style at  Average Joes, as Canadian classic Rockers Honeymoon Suite returned to Honeymoon Suite's Johnnie Dee entertaining the crowd. Photo by Richasrd AmeryLethbridge.


 While I missed opening act the Raw Dogs, Honeymoon Suite delivered exactly what was  expected— hits and lots of them.


 They have quite a few to choose from and played them all. Everyone was blissfully singing along to “Wave Babies,” “ Stay In The Light,” “ Feel it Again” and lots more plus  more obscure tracks like  the spunky  “Shot Through the Heart.”


 There was plenty of keyboard solos and lead singer Johnnie Dee, who still has a fabulous voice, played  a lot more guitar, taking turns playing with lead guitarist Derry Grehan. Johnnie Dee even played a very pretty guitar intro to “Wave Babies.”


Of course, they had plenty of their famous ballads like “What Does it Take,” which also had the audience singing.
