Those of you, who’s been following Simple Plan for a while surely know who Patrick Langlois is. But if you don’t, here’s a short recap:
As a friend of the guys from Simple Plan, Patrick helped the band launch their career by working as their merch manager, photographer, cameraman and website manager. For almost a decade, Patrick’s been around filming, managing and helping out his friends in SP and in 2006 him and Sebastien even started a radio show ‘Man Of The Hour‘ on idobi radio, which is still on air today. However in 2008, Patrick made the decision to leave SP, after getting an opportunity to work as a video journalist for MusiquePlus. After 4 years, Pat has moved from MusiquePlus to V Télé in 2012, where he’s been hosting various TV shows ever since.
Yesterday it was announced that while Patrick still continues to host Ménage à trois during the workweek, during this summer, he will also be taking over the radio waves – on the ÉNERGIE 94.3 Montréal radio over the weekends (Saturdays and Sundays from 10am to 3pm), starting May 28th.
“I love the idea of being part of BBQs, pool parties and summer weekends with the best music, my guests and a ton of surprises! I always liked doing live TV, and it is this proximity to the public that attracted me to the radio,” said Patrick Langlois. It has also already been confirmed that among the upcoming guests of Patrick’s new show will be (besides other local personalities) the members of Simple Plan, who will be reunited with their old buddy – this time live on the radio. When exactly the guys will be present on Patrick’s show has not been revealed yet.
