After a few years Simple Plan have finally come back to Brazil again, where they were greeted by tons of excited fans – first, when David arrived, they waited for him at the airport and later at his hotel. The rest of the band arrived later, as their flights have been cancelled and had to wait a whole day for the next connection – that also led to the soundcheck in Porto Alegre starting 30 minutes late. But all went well, the band arrived safely and they were yet again welcomed by a huge number of fans both at the airport and at the hotel.
This time, the band played only two shows in Brazil – one headlining one in Porto Alegre on Sunday and the second one as a part of the SWU festival, where apart from them, the fans were able to check out the acts of Lynyrd Skynyrd, The Black Eyed Peas, Kanye West, Snoop Dogg or Duran Duran. On this show, Pierre also pleased the local fans by wearing a t-shirt with a brazilian flag. Last night’s show on SWU was also aired online in certain regions, so there’s no wonder that songs like “Your Love Is A Lie” and most importantly “Welcome To My Life” reached the worldwide trending topics for a couple of hours.
You can already check out the pictures from both shows, and also from backstage interviews (thanks to SPB.com) and from the airport in the gallery:

And below you’ll find a really awesome footage from Simple Plan’s performance on SWU with the song Can’t Keep My Hands Off You:





Simple Plan kicked off their long-awaited US tour two days ago in style – particularly in Los Angeles, California. The guys hit the tour along with the bands The Cab, Marianas Trench and Forever The Sickest Kids and even invited some of the members to their webchat on Friday. Unfortunately they somehow forgot to record the webchat this time, so if you weren’t up when it was live, i’m really sorry…
