Simple Plan pre-recorded a future “livestream” in Hollywood and performed The Antidote live for the first time

AUTHOR: Dominika | 3. December 2021 | no comments

It didn’t take long and the guys from Simple Plan were at it last night again, performing for a bunch of lucky people at the Bourbon Room Hollywood in Los Angeles, California. The main goal of this “secret” or “private” show was to pre-record a “livestream” with Mola Chills, which is set to are around the 22th December.

In the crowd one could spot a number of influencers and tiktokers as well as a number of Simple Plan fans who got to be there because of Simple Plan’s message on Instagram asking for their (vaccinated) fans to attend this event if they’re around the area at that time. As opposed to the filming of the music video for The Antidote, the attendees didn’t have to sign any NDA this time around, so we’re bringing you a bunch of photos from the show in our gallery as well as the full setlist. As you can see, this was the first time Simple Plan performed The Antidote live all together in front of a crowd:

1. I’d Do Anything
2. Shut Up!
3. Addicted
4. Boom!
5. Your Love Is A Lie
6. Welcome To My Life
7. Jet Lag
8. Can’t Keep My Hands Off You
9. The Antidote
10. Crazy
11. Where I Belong
12. Summer Paradise
13. What’s New Scooby Doo?
14. I’m Just A Kid
15. Perfect

First look at the behind the scenes of Simple Plan’s music video for ‘The Antidote’

AUTHOR: Dominika | 20. November 2021 | no comments

Sebastien Lefebvre and Jeff Stinco got to California this week to join their Cali-based friends Pierre Bouvier and Chuck Comeau. The purpose of their trip was simple: film the music video for their new single ‘The Antidote’.

Ahead of the videoshoot, Simple Plan fans from the area were asked to sign up and if chosen to attend one part of the videoshoot, which was supposed to be a concert scene. This filming took place yesterday, Friday November 19th 2021 at The Villas at the Marymount California University. This campus, as you can see on its introduction video, comprises of multiple villas and offers the MCU student’s a very comfortable residential housing. We don’t know about you, guys, but we’re getting some serious ‘Perfect’ vibes from the houses on the campus.

Not a lot is known about the concept of the video itself so far, the only thing we know is that it won’t just be a “concert video” but it should include an actual storyline as well. One of the special guests in the crowd was Chad Tepper, who recently did a song with Pierre.

During the day, Sebastien decided to film short clips throughout the videoshoot and posted them all in his Instagram reel today. Check it out for a couple sneak peeks:

After the concert filming session with the fans, the guys from the band gathered the fans, hung out with them for a while and Pierre even decided to do an impromptu acoustic session for the fans and played them some of the greatest hits including I’d Do Anything, Welcome To My Life, Perfect and even I Hate Everybody with Chad Tepper.

Check out a photo in our gallery that we’ve received from one of the fans Jacqueline and also have a look at the videos below that will give you a little look at what the acoustic session with Pierre was like later on:
