A week ago, we celebrated the 13th anniversary since the first ever Simple Plan show, which commemorated the first show that happened in the name of “Simple Plan” yet the band only included four members. And today we can finally celebrate the the date when all the members of Simple Plan – even David – were in the band.
It took the guys a couple months after their first show to realize they need another member, which would allow Pierre not to focus on the bass but just on his vocal parts. They were astonished by David’s performance as the new bass-player for Reset and offered him a place in their own band. For a few months, David was secretly a part of both bands but finally in early 2001 he told his bandmates in Reset he was leaving for Simple Plan.
David’s first official show as the newest member of Simple Plan then took place on February 3rd, 2001, when they opened for Our Lady Peace at Laval University in Quebec City.
