In the upcoming couple of days, Simple Plan have five shows in Australia on schedule, out of which four are already sold-out – with only a few dozens of tickets left for the final third show in Melbourne. Third show, you ask? Yes. The demand for the tickets in Melbourne has been so overwhelming that after the first show in Melbourne had sold-out in just minutes, the band decided to prolong their stay in Australia by adding one more show in Melbourne. And then the same thing happened with show no. 2, which is why they added the final third show. Besides Melbourne, Simple Plan will also be hitting Brisbane, which will come right after their first Australian TOFTT show in Sydney, which took place tonight. Let’s have a look at what this show had in store for the local fans!

First, just like at every other show, Simple Plan held a soundcheck party for their fanclub members and at this soundcheck party they made a dream come true to a young local boy by letting him sing ‘When I’m Gone’ on stage with the band. Our friend Brett managed to capture this awesome moment on a video along with the beginning of the soundcheck, so you can now check it out below (thanks, Brett!):

Many of the attendees, however, both of the soundcheck and of the show itself may have missed out on one very interesting thing that was happening while they had their eyes fully set on the band. The band’s set has been professionally filmed in Sydney and might very possibly be filmed on the rest of the Australians dates too. This comes from the news that has come to surface firstly thanks to Peter John‘s Instagram Stories from today and later also from his Instagram post, where he confirmed he is indeed once again filming Simple Plan live. You may recall that this Australian director was the one in charge of the wonderful footage ‘Live In Melbourne’, released on YouTube in 2013.

Now, when it came to the show, the boys performed the already established setlist once again [the version that includes ‘Kiss Me Like Nobody’s Watching’, ‘Your Love Is A Lie’ and ‘Farewell’] as you’ll be able to see below:

And as always, you can already find a bunch of pictures both from the soundcheck and from the show in Sydney in the gallery – big thanks to Sara for sending them in!
