I'd only want to see a full tour if they were gonna put the effort in, like actually practise and nail the songs, not get absolutely wankered (nothing wrong with a few drinks) before each show and play a decent length set. I don't want to go see my favourite band just to be let down :(

In fairness, a few weeks is 21 days.

for Sum 41, few weeks = 2 months
and i'm being positive

I think the keyword in that tweet is the word "soon", it could be anything from three days to three months.

when will they ever stop to use that word ?? I can't hear it anymore ! maybe they are sadists or something ... cause that clearly is torture !!!

Now they don't even announce sth that could happen "soon", they even make announcements that soon sth will soon happen, ya know

It's the exact same statement as they had yesterday on Twitter. It doesn't mean it's any closer, they just posted it on Facebook too for those who don't have Twitter.

i know ... it's just double torture for people who have both ....

The big announcement oughta be something that'd make the whole world rejoice. Or atleast this forum.

I dont like doubleposting, but here goes:
I found this pretty cool interview with Steve and Dave (yeah it's old), but I don't think many have ever read it. I certainly hadn't although i've been quite thorough reading their interviews.

It's quite funny, especially the sponge-bob parts. Haha.
I'm sorry though if everyone has read that before.

They just dropped a bunch of new tour dates for the summer. Guessing those were the big announcements.

I guess they were.
Still no words about BIME for quite some time :/

I feel like I've read it before. It was funny when they were talking about Dave's fake marriage in the Pieces video and then his real life one.

Also, can't leave out this. Discussing the difference between Canadian and American concert goers compared to Japan.

Dave: And Canadians kids have proven that they are amazing.

... And

Bobby: Today the Black Maria is releasing their CD. Are you going to be doing anything special to celebrate with them?
Dave: We’re going to have them open up the show and then…
Steve: Get the fuck off the stage.
Dave: Yeah, we’re actually going to cut their set.
Steve: Yeah, we’re gonna cut their set by ten minutes just because we can! Jay, make a note of that. Black Maria’s set – ten minutes short.
Dave: Don’t tell them though, we’re just gonna put them all asleep on stage.
Steve: We’re gonna buy them each a pair of knee pads. “Welcome to the music industry. Suck.” That’s what we got the first day.
Dave: Yeah, I know. Really good ones; custom moulded.
Steve: I know, I know. X-games type.

Man, I love this band.

Man 4 dates is big news? I wonder what 8 tour dates would be for them?

According to their twitter, there are more dates on the way. I swear to god, if one of those dates isn't Glasgow...

I'm hoping for some headlining shows. We already know their festival setlist.

They should've re-worded it to like "big announcements regarding touring" or something. Just to narrow down the curiosity!

Ha! Look what I found! Knew it was worth watching this 20-minute interview.

Recent interview with Bill Priddle and Grieg Nori from Treble Charger.
At 16:44, Greig tells about the favorite tour prank he's witnessed, pulled by our very own Sum 41.
EDIT: Let's keep these coming while I'm at it. Seems like Greig likes to talk about Sum 41, even after what happened between them.

About what he saw in Sum 41 and Deryck when he first saw them. (at 1:45)
EDIT 2: This third one doesn't really have anything to do with the Sums (except a small story how he kinda knew they were going to get big at 10:52). But it's probably the best interview I've seen in a long time. Greig talking a lot about the current stage of music business and being totally honest about it. Also, he talks a little about how he chooses the songs to the setlist, and how it differed from the previous time around. Very interesting for me at least.
And for a fan of Treble Charger like me, it was surprising to hear that he and Bill didn't even ask the rest of the band to join the reunion. Instead, he chose a new drummer and a bass player, to avoid bringing back the bad blood from 9 years ago.

Thanks for posting those! Really enjoyed the interviews. Haha, I'm not surprised Sum 41 came to mind when Greig was asked about pranks pulled while touring. Like hearing about the early days of Sum 41. (2nd video)

So... when are we going to put Vegas style betting odds on which date of this tour Sum 41 ends up cancelling on everyone?

Maybe they're going to actually release the video to coincide with them being relevant enough to start touring again!
