As of right now, Simple Plan’s main concern is to finish recording their 6th album in the studio, then head out on the co-headlining tour with State Champs in the U.S. and then at the end of the year or at the beginning of 2020 release the new record. But what will happen after? Obviously we can expect a tour after that. But where, when… and with who? And while none of these information have been officially confirmed by Simple Plan, we might actually already know answer to all three of these questions.
According to two of our separate sources, at their last night’s show at Reading Festival in the United Kingdom, Bowling For Soup, the legendary American pop-punk band announced to the crowd that they would in fact be coming back there to tour with Simple Plan in February.
Of course this statement brings us a lot of other questions: who will be headlining this tour? In the UK, it seems that Bowling For Soup tour rather constantly, in venues for 5000 people, which is not really the case for Simple Plan. This also ties with another question – will this possible tour be a UK tour or a full-on European one? Since given Bowling For Soup’s severe lack of touring in mainland Europe over the past decade, Simple Plan seems like a more possible headliner over here.
All that’s left for us is wait and see for Simple Plan and/or Bowling For Soup to officially announce this tour.
Would you be excited to see these two acts tour together again? And in Europe of all places? Let us know in the comments below!
UPDATE (August 27th)
According to some more unofficial information, this tour should be a Bowling For Soup headlining UK tour with Simple Plan and Not Ur Girlfriendz as opening acts and should be officially announced next week.
