Simple Plan are currently on tour in Europe supporting Sum 41 and after the first show’s setlist was revealed, some fans felt a little let down over the amount of songs from SP’s new album ‘Harder Than It Looks’, as the original setlist for the first few shows included only one song from this record – ‘Wake Me Up (When This Nightmare’s Over)’.
Of course, given the status of an opening band, it’s understandable that the band only has a fairly limited time to perform, but even so, they still try to fit in as many hits as possible on the setlist.
As we’ve mentioned in the previous article, though, there was a strong possibility the band would switch things up during the tour, so that every show would not be as predictable, as exactly that happened in Bordeaux, France and Bilbao, Spain. According to the fans from both of these shows, Simple Plan switched ‘Wake Me Up’ for another HTIL song – ‘Iconic’. Also, they had to cut the setlist by one song and did not perform ‘What’s New Scooby Doo’ – this might again change at future shows though.
