Can/U.S. tour announcement confirmed for Monday with a new photoshoot + possible opening band

Yesterday we brought the news that Simple Plan would be announcing their upcoming tour across Canada and the U.S. next week and today we finally have the confirmation that the tour announcement is in fact coming on Monday already!

Both Jeff and Simple Plan announced so on their Instagram and while Simple Plan are still playing guessing games with the fans what the announcement could be, Jeff is already happily posting about the fact that it’s a tour announcement regarding the U.S. and Canada. But at least Simple Plan accompanied the announcement of the Monday announcement with a cool new black & white photoshoot from Europe, taken by Chady. Check it out:

There may be something more than just tourdates to the Monday announcement, though. It’s fair to assume that along with that the band will also announce the opening band for this tour. And here’s where some simple maths and a little detective work come in: from the band’s behavior on social media in the past few days, where they’ve been paying a lot of attention to the Canadian band Story Untold (formerly known as Amasic), lead by singer Janick Thibault, it’s highly probable that their could be Simple Plan’s new opening band for this tour. Coincidentally, Story Untold also have a “huge tour announcement” for their fans coming up this Monday – and Simple Plan’s official Twitter have favorited their tweet announcing this. Let’s see what the official confirmation on Monday brings!

Canadian and U.S. Simple Plan tourdates to be announced next week!

After months spent in Europe, it’s finally time for the homeland Canada and the neighbouring United States to get some Simple Plan love! Even though Simple Plan are currently in the midst of their acoustic promo tour in the United States and have a couple of Canadian festivals scheduled for the summer, they still have some stuff up their sleeves concerning these two countries. And by stuff I mean regular full-on tours!

As we’re heard mentioned in various interviews and on social media in the past few weeks, Simple Plan are planning on heading back to Canada and the U.S. this fall and according to Jeff’s tweet yesterday, we may finally expect some tour announcements next week! Check out what Jeff wrote below:

This will be a big return of Simple Plan in both countries. While Simple Plan have played in numerous places in Canada over the past few years, their last full-on Canadian tour was back in 2012, when they had Marianas Trench, All Time Low and These Kids Wear Crowns open for them. In the U.S., apart from a few appearance on Warped Tour, the last time Simple Plan toured properly was in 2011.

Simple Plan performed on a bus in Wilmington

Simple Plan’s last appearance on the first part of their mini acoustic promo tour in the U.S. took place in Wilmington, DE yesterday. The boys firstly performed at the radio station 93.7 WSTW but then headed out to the station’s new ‘Band On The Bus’ experience, where they literally performed on a bus to a number of spectators.

Check out their bus performance of ‘Can’t Keep My Hands Of You’ on the video below:

The radio station also already published over 100 photos from Simple Plan’s appearance in Wilmington, which you can now view in the gallery:

Simple Plan add an acoustic performance in Texas

Yesterday Simple Plan finished the first part of their mini acoustic promo tour around the U.S. radio station and headed home for 6 days to get some rest before they head back to the U.S. for some more acoustic sets. And they just added another one!

The four members of SP (Chuck most probably won’t attend the second half of this run either) will be visiting Austin, TX on June 28th! Tickets for the private performance can be won at the Mix 94.7 radio.
