Simple Plan show in Prague, Czech Republic

I don’t know where to start. Friday was the most amazing and the craziest day of my life. Yet everything worked out! The organisers of the show were very fond of the band – apparently we’ve “chosen a really good band – they are all so nice!”. Also, our idea of THANK YOU signs in paper hearts was a huge success – the guys noticed already right before Everytime and stopped the whole show to thank us and take a picture of themselves with the whole crowd behind them filled with hundreds of paper hearts (btw I think the photo is still not online anywhere, but hopefully someone will put it up soon: Pierre, if you’re reading this, would you be so kind?).

My interview with Chuck and Sebastien went also really well in my opinion (I will try to publish it today) – the guys were really looking forward to an interview with SimplePlan.cz and Jeff was so jealous of Chuck and Seb that he joined us later as well :) In the interview we’ve covered everything from Mark Hoppus’ mom to maple syrup. So I think you have a lot to look forward to ;)

The setlist of the show was as follows: Shut Up, Can’t Keep My Hands Off You, Jump, Take My Hand, When I’m Gone, Addicted, You Suck At Love, Thank You, Your Love Is A Lie, Astronaut, Summer Paradise, medley (Fuck You/Dynamite/Raise Your Glass), Jet Lag, This Song Saved My Life, Welcome To My Life, I’d Do Anything, Loser Of The Year, I’m Just A Kid, Everytime, Perfect.

Though the most amazing part of the day was yet to come when during the show Pierre started talking about SimplePlan.cz, thanked me and even started a huge applause for the website – it was incredible and I appreciate it so much. You can check out this moment in the following video (around mark 1:35):

The present from the Czech fans was given to Jeff after the band’s soundcheck and he was absolutely astonished.

I have already uploaded a few of my personal and my friends’ pictures from the soundcheck/meet&greet with Simple Plan to the gallery, and you can also find there many pictures from the show itself and also from the “hanging-out” session with the guys after the concert:

Update from Rock En Seine

Pierre’s 100% healthy again and the guys have been back on the old continet for a few days now, where they will be performing on a few festivals and also their own shows. Yesterday, Simple Plan dropped by at a French festival called Rock En Seine, from where you can already check out first photos in the gallery:

Simple Plan were also joined on this show for their single Jet Lag by no-one other than Marie-Mai! It is yet unknown if Marie-Mai is going to join SP on the rest of their European tour, but at least you can check out below what it would look like if she did (although in non-francophonic countries Jet Lag would most probably be performed in its English version):

Flashback: a preview of one of the first Simple Plan’s setlists


Sebastien posted a picture on Twitter today. A picture that one does not see very often: Simple Plan’s setlist from around 1999. That makes it one of the first setlists from the early days of Simple Plan, which was probably used during the time when Simple Plan were just a four-piece band (with David not escaping from Reset yet).

The most interesting thing about the setlist, though, is that it reveals two titles of songs that have never been mentioned anywhere before: Airport and Tana. Perhaps some of you may not recall First Date as well – if you’re the case, make sure to check out the live version of this song on YouTube. Neither Sebastien, nor any other band member has commented on these never-heard-before songs yet. So the question if they have ever been recorded still remains.

New photo from the making of the “Astronaut” music video

Here is the third photo (thanks to CSP) from the making of the third music video for the Get Your Heart On! album – and for the second official single – Astronaut. So far we know that Astronaut is a pretty much already finished “mini-movie”, starring (probably in the lead role of the astronaut) actress/model Caitlin O’Connor. The film/music video should be released in the next couple of months.

What’s the hold up? Well.. right now the guys are hoping Jet Lag will keep being played on the radios and in music programmes – that’s why they are waiting to put out Astronaut as well. And are you already wondering what the single after Astronaut will be? The guys don’t have a clear answer on that yet, but they are playing with the ideas of songs like Summer Paradise, Gone Too Soon or This Song Saved My Life as the next single.

Which song do YOU think would make the best single after Astronaut?
