Simple Plan reveal limited edition poster for co-headlining tour with State Champs

Only 4 days separate us now from the long-awaited return of Simple Plan on a proper tour – this time around on a co-headlining tour with State Champs across the United States that will kick off on October 29th in Richmond, VA.

In order to make this tour even more special, the two bands decided to hire a freelance graphic designer to design a special limited edition poster for this tour. Pat Hamou, a Montreal based artist, who specializes on music-related art was the one they picked to create this beautiful artwork, very likely inspired by the song ‘Where I Belong’, which the two bands released only a couple weeks ago.

This limited edition 24 x 18” screen print poster will be available every night on the ‘Where I Belong’ tour during this October and November. And since only 1000 copies will be printed, it’s first come first serve! So definitely make sure to grab this piece of beauty to commemorate this special tour for years to come.

You can either check out the poster in full here or watch the teaser video/gif for it below:

Brazilian promoter reveals interesting new illustrated Simple Plan concert poster

December will mark Simple Plan’s grand return to Brazil since their last time in this country in 2012 and the band will be visiting four cities: São Paulo, Belo Horizonte, Rio de Janeiro and Porto Alegre.

The shows in the middle of this Brazilian tour – in Belo Horizonte (Dec 8th) and Rio de Janeiro (Dec 9th) have their own promoter – the organization Queremos – which has now revealed a brand new poster that is supposed to accompany the promotion of these two shows in Brazil. And while usually, the band’s concert posters are generally unified under the same corporate identity design (tour logo, unified color scheme, band photo, band font) – the promoter has decided to release their own illustrated poster for this occasion. See it below:

As you can see, the poster features a drawing of a girl in a green “SP” cheerleader’s uniform, riding a skateboard upside down and holding a megaphone. The image sort of reminisces the ‘I’m Just A Kid’ music video (skateboarding, cheerleaders) but at the same time by using the particular color scheme, the poster obviously hints on the partnership with the Heineken brand, who is the main sponsor of these two SP shows in Brazil (as stated in the bottom right corner of the poster).

What do you think of this unconventional concert poster?

Simple Plan to perform on their former high school: Beaubois college

In only few days, on November 16th 2010, the former high school of four out of five Simple Plan members, the Beaubois college in Montreal, organises a performance of twelve Beaubois college graduates, who have since become known personalities – and Simple Plan cannot be left out! Apart from David, all the SP members have graduated on Beaubois college: Jeff Stinco in 1995, Chuck and Pierre in 1996 and Seb in 1998.

The money raised from the tickets (which are available for $120) will profit the Simple Plan Foundation and Fondation du collège Beaubois. Also, the ticket-holders will get the chance to meet all the artists, including Simple Plan and attend the signing session and take pictures with the band members. And what more – rumour has it Simple Plan may perform some of the new songs off their upcoming record!
