Interview with Sum 41 - Underrated Songs, Final Tour & Looking Back With Gratitude

It’s difficult to put into words the feeling of saying goodbye to a band you’ve spent more than half of your life with. I am grateful to have seen the band play multiple times (although I am kicking myself for not having been in the country for their tour with Simple Plan! What a bill…) and yet it seems it could never be enough times. It’s surreal to imagine never seeing Sum41 on a festival line-up again or do a tour again, or for that social media post to say ‘Sum41 - ‘1996-2025’’. Therefore I am even more grateful of having had the chance to talk to Dave via Zoom a couple of days before their huge live show at Barclays Arena in Hamburg. He took the time on his day off - and despite having caught a bit of a cold - to talk with me about their massive Halloween show at London’s iconic Wembley Arena, whether Pain (or T’ain’t) For Pleasure would do a last appearance and what he has learned from spending the majority of his adult life traveling to foreign countries and being exposed to different cultures. Also, see me lose my sh*t when he reveals what song he wished had gotten a bit more exposure (which happens to be one of my all time favorite Sum41 songs), what Dave appreciates about his band members even beyond being bandmates, and struggling to find the words to say goodbye to a band that has meant a lot to me. On top of everything, and to add salt to the wound, it turns out that Dave is an absolute legend and truly one of the kindest souls I have met through interviewing musicians over the years. Two days after this interview, he recognized my face in the photo pit at the show and recalled my name, and went out of his way to give me his last guitar pick after the show. In any case, I will secretly hope for a reunion in 2045. You can’t stop me. Sum41 for f***ing ever. ************************************************ Interviewed for http://www.messedupmagazine.com   / messedupmagazine   My portfolio http://www.eyesclosedblog.com​   / eyesclosedblog
