VIDEO: Fan thanks SP for saving his life

At one of the recent U.S. acoustic sessions – at the Seminole Hard Rock Casino in Tampa, FL, Simple Plan also held a little Q&A session with the fans in the attendance. One of the fans decided to stand up and ask about them if they believe in people having ‘weird connections with their music’. The question eventually turned into a conversation, in which the fan revealed that in 2006 Simple Plan saved his life with ‘Welcome to My Life’. The band members were stunned and Pierre decided to go to the audience and hug the fan for sharing his story.

The whole moment was captured on the following video:

Simple Plan finish acoustic promo tour in Colorado

On Saturday, Pierre, David, Jeff and Seb played the last two sets of their acoustic promo run across the American radio stations – in Fort Collins, CO and Colorado Springs, CO. Initially, Pierre announced on his Instagram that both of these shows were free, however after finding out the Colorado Springs festival had an entrance fee, he did something incredibly nice: firstly, he deeply apologized for the mistake and invited fans in the area who didn’t have the money to enter the festival to comment on his post, promising to make sure to get them in.

Check out the first pictures from both of the acoustic concerts: firstly the one for 99.9 The Point in Fort Collins, and then the first ones from the Steers and Beers festival in Colorado Springs:
