The Planet Smashers announce dates with Simple Plan

Posted by aubin on Wednesday, October 26, 2005 at 5:17 PM (EDT)

The Planet Smashers have announced their upcoming tour dates supporting fellow Quebecers, Simple Plan. The two Canadian acts will be touring their native country in November and December, with the Smashers supporting their 2005 full length Unstoppable. Simple Plan continues to support 2004's Still Not Getting Any... as well as their 2005 live album Live from the Hard Rock.

The Planet Smashers recently addressed the unusual bill saying:

Simple Plan has invited us to open for them on their next Canadian tour, Nov 22nd-Dec 17th. It'll be our first and probably only stadium tour - I plan to eat all of SP's catering...put on some weight to get through the winter months. We've known the guys from Simple Plan for a long time, they're great people and it's great to be touring with friends (especially on a gi-normous rock tour).

just to let some of you know, simple plan consists of member from the band RESET. More or less it is reset with a focus on just pop-punk songs. They were well along their way before the big hype with sum41, so if anyone's style was 'ripped off' it would have been simple plan's crap. not trying to say they are any good, but this album has been a long time coming. Just don't want people to thnk that the music industry is worse than it actually already is, this band was not put together over night. I also think that because reset could not find any real exposure with the style they played (which wasn't bad, much harder anyway), probably after playing countless venues in montreal, they got sick of it and decided to milk the pop/punk scene and make some real money. Can't say I blame em, I could use some real money too, and we all know that it doesn't take much talent to mak

Please dont play the anonymous posters game kid. No one wins when the random assholes of the world just decide to say shit to bait everyone. I think its more fun when people have someone to trace the flamebait back to. I always was a daredevil. Or a prick. Whatever.

In the next two years we'd damn well better see the Cubs and the Indians win a World Series.

The Red Sox and White Sox have won the last two World Series after not winning anything since 1917-18 respectively. I hope you guys say goodbye to your loved ones because this planet is fucked.

MLB is a show, just like WWE, they should rename it to Major League Entertainment. My guess is, somehow they planned this whole thing.

Yeah, I was sitting in a luxury box for Game 1 and they gave us all cards saying that the White Sox were going to win. Oh, wait, no that just happened on a hockey intro to the Simpsons.

what's up with all this sp haters thingy?..i mean,what's there not to like about them?...they put on a hell of a show,they r really down-to-earth,they r very talented and they made it on their own...and i know,some of the guys don't like sp because they think the sp guys are just another pretty faces,that only shows that u'r just jealous of them...having a pretty face just adds up a bonus to the guys' list.....planet smashers should be honoured or at least proud to be invited by simple plan to be on their tour

I once saw Simple Plan. They were opening for the Mighty Mighty Bosstones. This seems relevant.

This is the Canuck equivelant of Catch-22, the songs are simple, poppy and laden with terrible teen-mall lyrics. And if you think their live show is so amazing, you have shit taste in bands. I did mention this 2 years ago here and got slayed by the Maple Leafers here.

man, fuck simple plan, they dont even deserve to be mentioned in a headline on this site. I saw Planent Smashers when they played Ska is Dead Tour, kinda ironic they've moved on to this shit.

I believe use of the word "ironic" should be banned from this site because I'm pretty sure it has never been used in the right context.

It's amazing how so many of you build up a band and then systematically tear them apart when they do something you don't think is cool, or scene, or fits into your little box of what you deem to be acceptable. This is really not a very big deal. The Smashers will do this tour with Simple Plan, and when its over, they'll most likely return to play the clubs and halls they've been doing for years. It's just one tour....relax! If you're no longer a Planet Smashers fan because of this, then don't go to their shows anymore, don't download their CD's, but my God, get over it and stop shitting on a band who has more DIY cred than all you little cunts put together

ok so heres why this is happening, and why i think its fine. i got an email from the planet smashers saying that simple plan asked them to tour with them because they were friends and that while they know most of their fans are gunna hate it, they had there reasons. 1. they have know simple plan since before they were simple plan and are good friends wtih them; 2. a stadium tour would be awesome; 3. theyre never gunna get the chance to do this again. i seriously doubt that this is going to change their music style because if sp was gunna change them, they allready would have being freinds with them. so i think this is great and that the planet smashers deserve it. i hope they have a hell of a lot of fun, get some good experiences out of it, and ill be waiting for them to get back and play there awesome uplifting music here in cleveland again. and by the way:
