By me


I know, I bet you never saw this coming. :D
Haha. Well, this is obviously to discuss the band Simple Plan..and yeah.
You know the rules..so have fun.

About SP:

I'll do this to the best of my knowledge..but I've been a fan for seven years so it shouldn't be a problem.
They were all raised in Montreal, Quebec, except for David, he was somewhere else in the province. All four guys (Pierre, Jeff, Seb and Chuck) went to high school together, David didn't. Chuck and Pierre formed their first band at 13, and their music career went on from there. They started with the band Reset, but left it after a few years, and David took over Pierre as the lead singer. So Pierre, Seb, Chuck and Jeff came together to form a band, and David left Reset to join it, thus forming Simple Plan.
Since 2001, they've sold over 7 million albums, sold out lots of concerts, and recorded four CDs and one DVD, one of the CDs being a live/concert one. No Pads, No Helmets...Just Balls was their debut CD that was released in 2002, and had quite a few hits such as "I'd Do Anything", "I'm Just A Kid", "Perfect" and "Addicted". A year later, in 2003, they came out with a full length DVD which had lots of funny footage of the guys, plus all the music videos they had up to that point. A year later, in October 2004, Still Not Getting Any... was released and was quite a transition from their debut with hits like "Shut Up!", "Welcome To My Life", "Perfect World", "Crazy" and "Untitled". In 2005, Simple Plan released their live album, MTV Hard Rock Live which was broadcasted on TV on MTV. Then came the touring. Simple Plan went all over the place after Still Not Getting Any... was released, and didn't stop. Until they had to sit down and start thinking what their next album was gonna be like. Three years later, in February 2008, we got...
SIMPLE PLAN.
This was a major step for the boys, but they felt good about it. They put more work into it than they ever had to for any of their previous CDs, and apparently it paid off with selling more than any album they've made. So far four singles made it off their new one, like "When I'm Gone", "Love Is A Lie", the emotional "Save You", and "No Love". Since February, Simple Plan's been all over, once again.
Simple Plan's had a lot of success, and according to Sebastien in one of their webchats, we can expect to see a fourth album within the next few years.


I have to say, that was really fun to write lmao.
I FEEL LIKE I WROTE AN ESSAY. :D

SP's up for some Juno Awards tomorrow. The Junos are basically the Canadian Grammys, so YEAH! They're up for best Canadian band, and best album! I'm hoping they win at least one, they're up against some pretty unknown people and they've won a lot of awards like this in the past, so I have hope. :D
And plus, they're performing! I'm really excited to see if they're gonna perform their latest single, No Love. It's been playing like crazy on the radio here.

And now they've stopped touring for good, so I think they're gonna go back to writing songs and prepping for the fourth (whoa) album until the summer, when they're hopefully gonna have their summer tour! Also I've heard of a new full length DVD being released sometime after touring which is now, and we haven't had a new one since 2003 (we've had DVDs, but only 20 minute ones, not an actual movie), so that gets me extremely excited!
