After touring Europe this year and with tours scheduled in South and North America and Asia, there’s only a few places Simple Plan haven’t set their foot on this year. And as we all know, one of Simple Plan’s favorite places to tour in Australia [I mean, they even filmed a live “DVD” there] – and as promised, Simple Plan will be back – in just two months!

It was just announced through Music Feeds that Simple Plan will perform three concerts down under – in Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne. The shows in Brisbane and Melbourne will unfortunately be 18+. An exclusive pre-sale for Frontier Touring members will kick off from 12pm Monday, 18th July and run until 12pm Tuesday, 19th July, while tickets go on sale to the general public from 10am Wednesday, 20th July.

We’re still waiting for the official announcement from the band, which could also reveal the opening bands on this Australian tour. The band has already confirmed all these dates and also announced that the opening band for these three concerts in Australia with be the pop rock locals Forever Ends Here.

Chuck warns from VIP ticket scamming at Musifest in Rawdon, Canada

AUTHOR: Dominika | 12. July 2016 | 1 comment

Thanks to some observant fans, a situation regarding the sale unofficial VIP tickets for Simple Plan’s appearance at the Musifest festival in Rawdon, Canada on August 13th, came to the surface.

According to a number of Canadian fans, one of the organizers of the Musifest festival has sent out a number of Facebook messages to fans attending the event, asking for money in exchange for tickets to a special VIP after party with Simple Plan. As there was no word on any VIP party on this event on the official website and fearing this was a scam aiming to take money from fans who just wanted to meet their favorite band, the fans took the information directly to Chuck, who took the matter into his own hands. Chuck confirmed this is a scam, the VIP event is fake and has never been authorized by Simple Plan. He also posted the following warning on Twitter in French:

“Someone is selling tickets to a supposed “VIP party” with us after the show Rawdon. This is not an event authorized by us. Please do not buy tickets & do not go to the event. We asked that person to immediately cease soliciting our fans. We are sorry about the situation and we will intervene to cease making misrepresentations and repay the fans.”

If you’ve also been contacted by the solicitor, please do not buy the offered tickets. As of right now, there has been no official VIP party scheduled for the event at Musifest. You can always check whether your event has a VIP ticket option by visiting the official website’s tour section.

At one of the recent U.S. acoustic sessions – at the Seminole Hard Rock Casino in Tampa, FL, Simple Plan also held a little Q&A session with the fans in the attendance. One of the fans decided to stand up and ask about them if they believe in people having ‘weird connections with their music’. The question eventually turned into a conversation, in which the fan revealed that in 2006 Simple Plan saved his life with ‘Welcome to My Life’. The band members were stunned and Pierre decided to go to the audience and hug the fan for sharing his story.

The whole moment was captured on the following video:
