As it was previously advertised, Jeff and Seb returned to their high school College Beaubois last month to film a special episode of the show Sucré Salé, hosted by one of their former high school mates Stéphane Leclair.
Three videos (in French) from the two guitarists’ visit have been released on the show’s Facebook page, which show the boys getting confronted with their graduation pictures, yearbooks and grades. Below each of the videos, thanks to our reader Clémence, you can now find a short recap of what’s been said and even some of the conversations in translation:
1. GRADUATION PICTURES
Jeff and Seb are introduced to the “wall of fame” (“wall of shame” according to Jeff), which features pictures of all former graduates of College Beaubois. Both Jeff and Seb agreed that all members of the band, who are pictured on this wall (Pierre, Seb, Jeff and Chuck) pretty much still look exactly the same. Well… except for Jeff.
2. YEARBOOKS
The second video leads Jeff and Seb to a classroom, where they shown their old yearbooks. Each of them reads the other’s description in their yearbook, which is usually been written by another friend:
Jeff reads about Seb: “Seb is the kind of sarcastic, positive and optimistic kid.”
Seb: “I didn’t change.”
Jeff: “You look like your daugther on this picture or maybe, your daugther looks like you..”
Seb read about Jeff: “From the begining, your destiny was to become the megalomaniac of this school. And you and I (Jeff’s best friend, Vincent), we’ve learned to each choose our own path, while still remaining together. You will be the best souvenir I’m taking from my high school. What would I have done for 5 years without you in Beaubois?”
Jeff: “It’s almost a love letter.”
1. GRADES
And finally, in the third video, Jeff and Seb are confronted with their high school grades.
Jeff: “We want to know who was the best…”
Host: “One of you had 86.3 and the other 86,2…”
Seb: “We are both excellent.”
Host: “Who had 86.3?”
Seb: “I think it’s you because i had 50% in a religion course because of a fake research I made.”
[it is not said, who’s result was who’s]
Host: “Comeau…. 88.3”
Jeff and Seb: “Whoaaaaaahhhh”
Seb: “The only difference betwen Comeau and us is that he studied 1000 hours more than us…”
Host: “Pierre Bouvier… 80.9”
[Jeff and Seb pretty much agree that that’s more than they thought]
[After that, Jeff and Seb make fun of Chuck for spending his evenings by studying]
Seb: “We had fun, we had friends…”
Jeff: “We had a social life. He had nothing.”
After Rock Am Ring, Simple Plan headed to Pratteln, Switzerland yesterday, to perform another show which is a part of their No Pads, No Helmets… Just Balls 15th anniversary tour. Many international fans gathered there to witness this concert and enjoy yet another stunning show. And what a show it was indeed!
Last year, when Simple Plan toured Europe in May, they were accompanied by two opening acts: The Bottom Line and ROAM. But back then we didn’t really have any idea how much this tour must have meant for the members of ROAM as it turns out Simple Plan may have been some of the ROAM band members’ favorite band for quite some time!
