Pop-punk mainstays Simple Plan and Sum 41 will be hitting the road later this year, for a run of shows dubbed the "Blame Canada" tour. The trek kicks off in Raleigh, North Carolina in April and will cover much of the nation before taking its final bow in Denver, Colorado on Aug. 18. Recently, Simple Plan singer Pierre Bouvier sat down with PopCulture.com to talk about the tour, explaining that the name is a "tip of the hat" to South Park, referencing the animated franchise's Oscar-nominated song.
"Canadians, we don't take ourselves too seriously. We love the joke and it's funny because we both came out around the same time," Bouvier said, noting that his band and Sum 41 have had very similar paths. "Their first album came out in 2001, ours came out in 2002. We've really had parallel careers. We were both riding the coattails of Blink 182 and Green Day who paved the way for us. And then we both had massive success throughout the world. And the cool thing is that we're both bands still active, still together, still doing what we do."
