Simple Plan’s concert at RBC Amphitheatre was their biggest show ever and it was really special to be there on Thursday night. Nothing makes you want to put your phone down faster than jumping up and down when Pierre Bouvier tells you to jump! They kicked off their sold out show with confetti and special effects instead of saving them for the end.
Friday was a good night to be a 90s bitch. The Arkells snuck in a cover of Icona Pop’s I Love It, and their opener Cailin Russo returned to the stage for the anthem featuring Charli XCX. This was definitely a highlight and somehow more exciting than seeing the Arkells perform Robyn’s Dancing On My Own with Tegan and Sara in 2024. But it couldn’t trump the surprise of their throwback to ABBA’s Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight) at Scotiabank Arena in 2022.
