Simple Plan reminisce about 2017’s No Pads tour & promise to start working on new album in 2018

With only one show (tonight in Niagara Falls, NY) of the No Pads tour left this year, the year Simple Plan’s first album officially celebrated its 15th anniversary, the band reminisced a bit on their Instagram today about this quite eventful year and mostly about what this tour has meant for them, as well for the fans.

In the message, Simple Plan confirmed that they will be expanding the No Pads tour in 2018 with some additional dates in some countries they didn’t manage to visit on this tour yet (as of right now we know of South America and Australia) and we can expect the new tourdates in just a few weeks. Plus – the band also promised that besides concerts, 2018 will also be the year when they would start working on their next studio album.

Check out the full post below:

Tonight in Niagara Falls will be the last No Pads show of 2017 in the US. It’s been an incredible adventure for us and we’re so grateful for everyone who came to see us play all year. 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

We wanted to celebrate the 15th anniversary of the album that changed our lives by playing these special shows and we were hoping that some of you would want to join us and come sing along. We never expected it would turn into a whole year of shows all over the world, 3 tours in the US and such an outpouring of love and support for the music we created so long ago. It has been an incredibly rewarding and beautiful year, playing some absolutely magical shows and meeting so many passionate fans. You have made us realize all over again just how lucky we are to be able to do what we love the most in life. It really touched our hearts and impacted all of us to see the level of dedication, love and loyalty our fans have for this band. We heard so many stories about how our music has helped you deal with the tough moments in life, saw hundreds of SP lyric and logo tattoos and realized just how many friendships and relationships still exist today because of the band we started in our parents’ basement back in Montreal…

It has been one of the greatest experiences of our career so far. Once again, thank you all so much for everything.

– Pierre, Chuck, Sebastien, Jeff a David –

P.S.: There’s still a few places we haven’t visited on this tour and we know you’ve been waiting for us…In the next few weeks, we will be announcing the final legs of the No Pads tour. Can’t wait to see you at the shows in 2018 and to start working on a new album!
