Sum 41 Concerts Setlist

Sum 41 is a Canadian rock band. They were formed in 1996 in Ajax, Canada. The founding members were guitarist and vocalist Deryck Whibley (born in 1980 in Toronto, Canada), drummer Steve Jocz (1981, Ajax, Canada), bassist Richard Roy, and vocalist John Marshall.

The band started in 1996, originally only covering songs by the American punk band "NOFX", under the name "Kaspir". On September 28, 1996, they decided to change their name to "Supernova" first, then, since it was the 41st day of their summer vacation, they changed that too to "Sum 41". At the first live Sum 41 concert under the new name, they were noticed by singer and music producer Greig Nori. He was impressed by the band's original songs, but suggested they make Whibley their lead singer. They took the advice, so the original vocalist Marshall quit. A near-fatal car accident prompted Roy to leave too, who was replaced by Jason McCaslin.

The Canadian rockers spent the next couple of years recording demo tapes and performing small Sum 41 concert shows. This resulted in them signing with the major record label Island Records. Their debut single came out in 2000, with the title "Makes No Difference", and, interestingly, two different music videos. Sum 41's debut album, "All Killer No Filler", was released in May 2001. It became a hit, peaking at the #9 spot on Billboard's Canadian albums chart, #9 on the OCC chart in the UK, and #13 on the famous Billboard 200 in the US. The standout track on the record was "Fat Lip".

Since then, the band has released 6 more studio albums, thus they have 7 in total. The best selling one has remained their first one, ''All Killer No Filler", which sold around 3 million copies worldwide. Meanwhile, the latest new Sum 41 album came out in July 2019, with the title "Order in Decline".

The biggest hits in the Sum 41 setlist to date are the aforementioned "Fatlip" (2001), "In Too Deep" (also 2001), "Still Waiting" (2002), and "With Me" (2007). After some changes, the band's current line-up is made up of the sole founding member still on board, lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist Whibley, lead guitarist Dave Baksh, bassist McCaslin, and drummer Frank Zummo. They're known for their busy tour schedules, usually performing around 300 Sum 41 concert shows per year.
