Sneak peek at auction items for Simple Plan Foundation benefit event

It’s already become a tradition that every year, Simple Plan Foundation’s benefit event includes a silent auction, where the attendees have a chance to bid on very interesting items and experiences and help the cause at the same time.

Simple Plan have just revealed a part of the items which will be available at this year’s event, which will take place in Montreal this Sunday. Check them out:

  • A signed Maroon 5 guitar
  • Signed All Time Low item
  • Signed Montreal Canadiens Jersey
  • Signed poster from The 1975
  • Signed items from Marie Mai
  • Limited edition Puma shoes
  • Dinner with Simple Plan at Muscadin restaurant in Montreal

Update:

Chuck confirmed that another item to be auctioned off at the Simple Plan Foundation benefit event will be one of Mark Hoppus’ bass guitars, which has been signed by this member of Blink-182 and donated by him to this cause. Check out a picture of this bass:

Looks like Simple Plan are really trying to get back to their roots with their next album. I mean, if you add one member of Blink-182, one member of All Time Low and two members of Simple Plan, you surely have a recipe for an instant pop-punk hit. And believe it or not, that is exactly what’s happening today: Pierre jumped on Instagram this morning, where he revealed that him and Chuck will be song-writing with the legend that is Mark Hoppus from Blink-182 and Alex Gaskarth from All Time Low. It can’t get any more pop-punk than this, now, can it?

Mark Hoppus later confirmed this with a tweet written in French, saying: “Yes, I am writing a song with Simple Plan today so I’m learning French-Canadian. I am the best. Thank you.”

Simple Plan have previous relations to both of these musicians. Mark Hoppus knew the guys from Simple Plan even back when they were in Reset and was one of the first people who got to hear “I’d Do Anything” (which was according to Mark one of his “ten favorite songs of all time” at the time Chuck showed him the demo) and eventually got the offer from the SP guys to sing on it as well as be featured in the music video.

Alex Gaskarth has been a fan of Simple Plan for ever. At the Bamboozle Roadshow in 2010 Simple Plan’s and All Time Low’s paths crossed for the very first time and the members of both bands became very good friends which resulted in Alex Gaskarth singing on “Freaking Me Out” and All Time Low using a song initially just co-written by Pierre and Chuck from Simple Plan – “Time Bomb”. Since then the bands have performed together numerous times – most significantly at Simple Plan’s Canadian tour, where All Time Low were one of their opening bands.

What do YOU think of this collaboration?

Yesterday Chuck headed to Cleveland, Ohio to attend the inagural Alternative Press Music Awards, which features performances of many contemporary alternative bands and also many members of the bands from the current music scene are there to attend this event.

Last night, Chuck already got together with a few people you might have heard about and together they took an “Oscar selfie”, which apart from Chuck also includes for example Jack Barakat and Alex Gaskarth from All Time Low, Vic Fuentes from Pierce The Veil, Jordan Pundik from New Found Glory, Kellin Quinn from Sleeping With Sirens, Kevin Skaff from A Day To Remember and more!

Check out the few pictures that all these band members took together last night:
