Pierce The Veil and Sum 41 kicked off the stacked We Will Detonate! Tour with two back to back shows in Denver at The Ogden Theatre over the weekend. With a busy month of shows ahead of them, it seemed that every band on the bill was ready to pull out all of the stops for the opening night of tour, and despite a few small snags along the way, the show was a success.
Sum 41’s Don’t Call It A Sum-Back Tour has been a long time making. After having so much success with a Grammy nomination and the longest running tour of their career, Sum 41 had not only lost their spark, but they almost lost vocalist and guitarist Deryck Whibley. However, after years of soul searching, that flame was brought back tenfold. As Whibley was once again sober and out of physical therapy, he assembled his bandmates to begin on their new record. Whibley’s time through his recoveries were filled with writing material that has been used for the group’s sixth full-length album, 13 Voices, and this tour is their triumphant return!
