On Tuesday, David, Jeff and Sebastien appeared in the Kiehl’s store in Montreal, where the company launched its new product – a facial cream, whose sales will help out the Simple Plan Foundation. The boys also did a Twitter chat with their fans through the Kiehl’s Twitter account that day. Here are some new additions to the gallery from that day:
Exactly 34 years ago, a bass player of this one little Canadian band was born! That’s right! It’s David Desrosiers’ birthday today! So on behalf of SimplePlan.cz I would like to wish him all the best, lots of love, success, happiness and lots of new motorbikes for years to come. :)
Happy birthday, David!
On Tuesday evening, all the members of Simple Plan who reside in Montreal – Jeff, Sebastien and David – took part in the launch of the charity program Kiehl’s Rocks For Kids at the Kiehl’s store in Montreal, Canada. This program includes the following four initiatives:
– limited edition of the Ultra Facial Cream: this product will be available in all the Kiehl’s stores in Canada with 100% net profit going to the Simple Plan Foundation.
– for every transaction made at Kiehl’s between September 12th and 14th 2014, Kiehl’s will donate $1 to the Simple Plan Foundation.
– acoustic performance of Simple Plan: the band will perform a special acoustic concert in Toronto, Canada on September 19th. The tickets will be given away for free at Toronto Kiehl’s stores starting September 13th and also through a contest on Breakfast Television.
– live-stream of the concert: the show will be streamed online for all the fans, who donate $1 per view for the Simple Plan Foundation.
The company’s goal is to raise $40 000 for the Simple Plan Foundation through these initiatives.
During the evening at the Kiehl’s store, the members of Simple Plan gave out a couple of interviews to the media (which should be available soon – stay tuned!) and after that sat down with a laptop to answer the fans’ questions that have been sent in in advance using special hashtags on Twitter. You can check out all the fan questions and answers at @kiehlscanada. One answer that stood out was the band’s indirect confirmation of the rumor that there is indeed something coming up between Simple Plan and the Australian band 5 Seconds Of Summer in the future.

The boys also helped the local Kiehl’s team with the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge – which you can see on a video here. And finally: in the gallery you can now check out the first pictures of David, Jeff and Sebastien from last night’s appearance at the Kiehl’s store:
Montreal’s most popular summer festival – the Osheaga festival that took place from August 1st to 3rd had some great acts that performed on various stages including Lorde, Arctic Monkeys or Foster The People. And some of the members of Simple Plan could not miss the opportunity to check out some of their colleagues at work and showed up at all three days of the festival.
Jeff Stinco was there of course not only for the entertainment, but also to work on the TV documentary “The Event”, who’s upcoming episodes will feature this particular festival. But besides him, the attendees could have also met Chuck Comeau, who attended the festival yesterday and also David Desrosiers who was seen there on day 2 (August 2nd) hanging out with Anne-Marie Withenshaw and her husband Jay Walker.
