Along with All Time Low, Marianas Trench and These Kids Wear Crowns, Simple Plan kicked off their Canadian tour yesterday in the city of Penticton. According to the info I got from a few fans, Simple Plan included their new party medley, which apparently includes not only the cover of Maroon 5′s Moves Like Jagger but also apparently Sexy And I Know It by LMFAO and at least one more cover. Unfortunately so far no videos from the show have been uploaded on YouTube.

Anyhow, what I CAN actually show you are the first photos from last night in Penticton. The first link will get you to a couple more photos from the soundcheck to the show, where the high-school choir practised their This Song Saved My Life performance and the second link leads to photos directly from the show. And as you can see, Simple Plan sure did work on the background decorating lights and presented a whole new concert experience for SP fans :)

You love music, you’re a part of your school’s choir and your big dream is to one day be able to sing with your favourite musician – I am sure this must be a reality for many fans, who are lucky enough to have a bit of a musical talent. For some very lucky students from Penticton, Canada, the forementioned dream has come true last night. The students from the Penticton and Princess Margaret high-schools have merged to create one unique choir and got a chance to sing on Simple Plan’s concert in Penticton as the background choir in This Song Saved My Life. Originally, Simple Plan wanted the two shcools to compete for this opportunity, but the community center South Okagan Events Center persuaded them to have 10 students from each high-school in the final choir.

In the gallery you can already find a couple of photos from the soundcheck that the choir attended along with Simple Plan in Penticton yesterday.

And below you can check out a news report by CHBC News, which captures the students practicing for the big Simple Plan show in Penticton a few weeks before and also their reactions to the fact they will be actually singing with Simple Plan on stage:

As you know, Simple Plan have been rocking many covers of famous songs for years now. They have done practically everything from Snoop Dogg’s “Drop It Like It’s Hot” all the way to Katy Perry’s “I Kissed A Girl”.

Lately, the band has been performing a medley of 3 covers for Cee Lo Green’s “Fuck You”, Taio Cruz’s “Dynamite” and Pink’s “Raise Your Glass”.

But it seems like the boys want to change things up a little bit again – on one of their recent concerts in Tokyo, Japan, Simple Plan performed the hit song “Moves Like Jagger” originally by Maroon 5 on stage.

Simple Plan spent the last couple of days in Indonesia – particularly in the cities of Jakarta and Surabaya, where they played two shows and you can already check out some of the amazing photography from these concerts in the SimplePlan.cz’s galleryi:

Also, in case you don’t follow the last uploads of the gallery, I’d like to point out the collection of photos from the press conference in Jakarta and also the ones from an interview with Chuck and Seb, also from the day before yesterday in Jakarta:

Simple Plan’s opening band on yesterday’s concert in Jakarta, Indonesia, was the local band called Kotak of which you have already heard because of the recent collaboration they did with Simple Plan, when they recorded their version of the official music video for the song Jet Lag. And since Kotak was opening, t was clear that the fans could expect a live version of this collaboration as well. Last night, Simple Plan performed Jet Lag alongside the female singer of the band – Tantri Kotak. Check out below how this collaboration worked out:

Because of the enormous fanbase they have there, the boys will be back in Israel this year, only a few days after wrapping up their short tour across the United Kingdom. Simple Plan will be playing the Nokia Arena in Tel Aviv, Israel on May 5th!
