Simple Plan Live in Hong Kong
Jala Federoff
AsiaWorld Expo, Tuesday January 10
Not too many bands are brazen enough to constantly use the word ‘horny’ in front of a heaving mass of teenage girls. Simple Plan, though, care not. “These sexy sounds are making me feel so horny tonight!” exclaimed Simple Plan bassist David Desrosiers, setting the tone for their Hong Kong leg of their Get Your Heart On tour, and sending the mass of punk-rock teen (or thereabouts) chicks who had followed the Canadian pop-punkers since their early years into a semi-frenzy. For the whole night, the playful boys taunted and flirted with their audience, inviting their screaming fans to sexy showers and into short-lived relationships. “I love you!” yelled frontman Pierre Bouvier multiple times throughout the night. C’mon Pierre, you don’t even know them.
Regardless, Bouvier amused throughout the gig, as they mixed up tunes from their older albums to their recently released Get Your Heart On! He danced, threw himself around, and gave the thirsty crowd a glimpse of his impressive abs, pulling in the energetic crowd with their massive hits. Indeed, Hong Kong seemed to get their ‘Heart On’. Although, judging from their overtures on the night, we suspect Simple Plan had something else (that sounded rather similar).
