<\/a>The third (and final) installment of the “La fraternit\u00e9 du rock” book series by France Gosselin, entitled “La fraternit\u00e9 du rock: Radio rebelle”<\/b> (In translation: ‘The Brotherhood of Rock: Rebel Radio’), which follows the journey of a young man called Canisse, who’d dream is to become a drummer in a rock band, is set to be released on September 16th – and it will feature a group of characters we’re quite familiar with over here at SimplePlan.cz!<\/p>\n

Indeed – the members of Simple Plan will play an important role as characters in the plot of this youth novel<\/b>. According to the interview for Journal de Quebec<\/a> with France Gosselin, the author of the book, the Simple Plan plot of the story was inspired by her meeting with the band at Festivent in 2015. <\/p>\n

According to the author’s words, the members of Simple Plan have already been given the book and approved of the passages featuring their band<\/b>. <\/p>\n

A small reference to Simple Plan is also made on the cartoon cover of the book, in which one of the characters can be seen sporting an “SP” hat. <\/p>\n

And that’s not where Simple Plan’s involvement with the book ends – Chuck Comeau<\/b> not only invited the author to the band’s upcoming show in Quebec City, but even offered to pen the preface for the book.<\/b> According to Chuck, the book reminds him of the times when his on band was just starting out in his parents’ basement. <\/p>\n
