In July, Simple Plan will be heading back to Mexico [see all the details here], to play four shows across the country – and it seems like Mexican fans are really excited. The tickets went on sale recently and are selling out fast. Plus, the VIP tickets for the pizza party were sold-out in less than an hour! With that in mind, the band decided to add more spots for the pizza party.
Check out the following promo video which invites fans for the Simple Plan tour in Mexico:
Last night Simple Plan said hello to their fans in Oslo, Norway but unfortunately also had to say their goodbyes to their opening bands The Bottom Line and ROAM, who due to high costs of travelling with their equipment to the remaining countries on the tour, were not able to continue to play the remaining dates of the TOFTT tour. But both opening bands made sere to go out with a bang. Their sets were on fire, Pierre was even seen watching The Bottom Line performing their cover of ‘Teenage Dirtbag’, having a great time, and during Simple Plan’s ‘Crazy’, The Bottom Line guys were spotted by the band and also some fans running around the balcony… completely naked [thanks to Jenna for the info].
You can check out their final stage invasion along with ROAM during Simple Plan’s party medley on the video below:
Also, check out the full setlist of the Simple Plan show last night – as you can see, the band once again prolonged their set by adding ‘Thank You’ (because Callum from The Bottom Line requested it) to the mix as a surprise and also replaced ‘Perfect World’ once again with ‘Me Against The World’:
Encore:
17. Shut Up!
18. Me Against The World
19. This Song Saved My life (no drums)
20. Perfect
And finally, some of the first pictures that already popped up online from last night’s SP show in Oslo, can already be viewed in the gallery. Check them out:
After four years, Simple Plan finally returned to Copenhagen, Denmark yesterday, where they performed another high-energy set for the local crowd. From the title of the article, you can already tell who exactly did The Bottom Line come dressed up as for their party medley stage invasion – to keep it in the traditional themed spirit, the guys couldn’t pick anything more Danish than the Vikings.
Check out the video Laura took of this moment:
The Copenhagen setlist came with no big surprises – amongst the songs the guys like to alternate were ‘Kiss Me Like Nobody’s Watching’, ‘Take My Hand’ and ‘Nostalgic’:
Encore:
16. Shut Up!
17. Perfect World
18. This Song Saved My life (no drums)
19. Perfect
And of course, you can already find the first pictures from the last night’s show in the gallery:
The capital city of Germany – Berlin – experienced quite the spectacle last night! Those, who decided to spend their Saturday night at the Astra Kulturhaus venue, had the chance to see another hot Simple Plan show on their Taking One For The Team tour. And it was one of their best yet!
For the fanclub members, the evening started with the soundcheck party, which kicked off around 4pm. The full band was present this time around and together they decided to give their fans a sneak peek at the live versions of a couple of songs they do not normally play live anymore. That’s why the fanclub members had the chance to hear a part of ‘Last One Standing’ and ‘The Worst Day Ever’, which were accompanied by loud sing-alongs from the crowd.
Check out the videos from these moments I filmed for you in Berlin:
The show itself had to start a little earlier than usual, as there was supposed to be a disco happening at the venue right after the show’s end [see the evening’s timetable on the left].
After the opening bands pumped up the crowd, Simple Plan hit the stage with another version of their ever-changing setlist on this tour. This time around, the band surprised their fans by playing one additional song as a surprise, therefore increasing the amount of songs played that evening to the even number of 20. The forementioned song was ‘Your Love Is A Lie’, which wouldn’t be such a surprise on its own, as SP have played this song on their TOFTT tour setlist before, however, they always alternated it with another song from the self-titled record – ‘Take My Hand’. At the Berlin show, though, the band decided at the very last moment to perform both songs back to back, which is why YLIAL isn’t featured on the official setlist, the guys had printed out for the show.
Check out the full setlist the band actually played below:

17. Shut Up!
18. Perfect World
19. This Song Saved My life (no drums)
20. Perfect
Overall, the show in Berlin was even hotter and sweatier than a few nights before in Rome, and everybody seemed to be having lots of fun. During the party medley, you could even spot the paramedics standing on the sides and the security smiling and nodding their heads to the beats of ‘Uptown Funk’. When it comes to the usual The Bottom Line invasion on the Simple Plan stage during their party medley, the first opening band came in dressed as football players and started an interesting game of football right on stage.
Another surprise then came during ‘Crazy’ when Pierre decided to make his way through the crowd and end up in the front of house area, singing Crazy to the people in the back of the venue, facing his bandmates.
You can check out some of the pictures I took during the show in the gallery:
Simple Plan recently released a video taken by Chady, documenting their performances of the song ‘Crazy’ during the two tourdates in Italy this week – in Turin and Rome.
