AUTHOR: Dominika | 17. August 2015 | no comments

Big thanks to Justine for letting me know that it has already been announced that the opening band at Simple Plan’s shows in Francie – in Lyon (September 1st) and the sold-out show in Paris (September 3rd) – will be a Swiss pop-punk band called So Wasted.

The four-piece band has previously opened for We The Kings on their 2013 tour in Switzerland and is extremely excited to be opening for Simple Plan in France:

“At 15 we listened to their songs and imagined how cool it would be to be in a band. And now we have the incredible honor to share the stage with that exact band!”

AUTHOR: Dominika | 3. July 2013 | no comments

As announced a couple months ago, on Friday, July 5th, Simple Plan will be taking part of the festivities at the Festival de la Gibelotte in Sorel-Tracy, Canada.

It has now been confirmed that Simple Plan’s opening act will be Final State, a Canadian band formed in 2004. According to the festival’s schedule, Final State should get on stage at 8:30pm and play a 30-minute set. Simple Plan will start their show around 9:30pm and should play a full 90-minute set untill 11pm, which is not very usual for festival appereances. Therefore if you’re attending, you may have a look at the regular setlist rather than at the festival one.

Final State also recorded a special video message announcing their spot as a supporting band for Simple Plan at this particular show and you can check it out here:
