Two-time Juno Award winners Sum 41 rode the crest of the nu-metal wave in the early 2000s with a catchy blend of punk, rap and metal elements woven into their music. They were able to pinpoint some of the most infectious characteristics of popular genres and meld them into a hybrid that won them throngs of fans who were eager for more. Tickets to their concerts traditionally sell out fast, as fans don't want to miss the chance to jump up with the band and request songs through the extra microphone that seems to just float around the stage. The band orchestrates this circus-like scenario night after night on tour and even indulges in a cover or two by Judas Priest or Iron Maiden —complete with drum solos. Incidentally, the band was lucky enough to borrow drummer Tommy Lee from Motley Crue for a stretch between 2001 and 2003. Their August 2011 release Sum 41 Live at the House of Blues boasts plenty of live concert antics and features the hit songs "Underclass Hero," "Motivation" and "Fat Lip."
The band hails from Ajax, Ontario, Canada and is fronted by lead singer, rhythm guitarist and primary songwriter Deryck Whibley. They began in 1996 as a NOFX cover band called Kaspir but eventually changed their name for a high-profile show opening for Supernova. They signed an international record deal with Island Records in 1999, which resulted in their 2001 debut release All Killer, No Filler. They embarked on a relentless journey of touring and songwriting that led to the 2002 release of Does This Look Infected?, 2004's Chuck, 2007's Underclass Hero and the 2011 release Screaming Bloody Murder, with subsequent tours. Sum 41 continues this tradition with a string of Canadian tour dates scheduled for the spring of 2014.

So friggin fun! I was gifted a ticket for Tuesday’s show and had so much fun that I went again! I scored great last-minute tickets. These guys put on an excellent show…and really demonstrated how talented they are - no bells and whistles. Just pure and raw talent. It was a childhood dream to see Sum 41 live, and I’m grateful that I was able to not only achieve it, but do it twice!
In addition to their crazy awesome music, the stage presence and audience interaction made it an entertaining show rather than stop short at "just"a concert. Ten outta ten.
Sum 41 really put on a great show. They're amazing live. Too bad it was the last concert ever :-(
I listen to Sum 41 since when i was only 10, almost 20 years ago. Seen them live so many times... I came here in Toronto from Italy just for them, to say goodbye to this amazing band. One of the best live bands! The energy, the music... They for sure will be missed. Wonderful last 2 shows at Scotiabank Arena
SUM 41 delivered an electrifying final performance, playing a powerful mix of their biggest hits with raw energy and emotion. The band gave everything they had, engaging the crowd with extended solos, surprise guest appearances, and heartfelt speeches about their journey. As the final notes rang out, fans erupted in cheers, celebrating the band’s legacy and the unforgettable mark they left on punk rock.
What a great show! No complaints, they really put on an entertaining performance
Honestly, the show was great, the energy and love they poured out was intense, and it was hard to accept this would be their last show ever. They played a ton of great hits and yet I could have stayed for another hour easily to listen to more. While they may never tour again, I certainly hope they'll -from time to time - hit some festivals.
Too much talking not enough music played during set. Half of the venue under construction 🏗️
Amazing show! Pup & Gob put on a good one too! We’ll miss you Sum 41 😢
Hands down Sum 41 will always be my favorite band. Been a fan since 97-98. Thank you Sum 41 for an incredible career! Oh the concert was ABSOLUTELY PERFECT!
Concert was awesome! The boys from Ajax put on a great show after all these years.
Loved it! Great, high energy performance! Fantastic farewell show and will miss these guys!
The show was incredible had so much fun it's sad they are done
Honestly made all my teenage dreams come true ! seeing GOB and Sum41 was amazing and the show did not disappoint. It was exactly what I would’ve expected it to be!
Great final show. I will miss them so much. Thank you, guys.
Flawless performance, was an honour to be a participant in one of the final shows for such an influential band. I hope they had as much fun as we did reliving the past 20-30 years. Was also the best sounding show I've been to at Scotiabank - not sure if that credit goes to the sound crew or the building itself on upgrading speakers - as it wasn't so loud it sounded distorted.
These guys put on a hell of a show! So much talent! It sounded like I was listening to the CD. They nailed every song! They also did a quick cover solo from Master of Puppets (Metallica) and the into to Reign in Blood by Slayer. One of the best bands I have ever seen. Truly amazing! Thank God I saw them!!!! Thank you Sum 41!!!!! You guys killed it!
Great time band really put on a show sad to see they are retiring but happy to be there before that happends
I grew up listening to Sum 41 and attended this concert mainly for the nostalgia. I wasn't sure what I was in for, but I was absolutely blown away!!! The whole band sounded amazing live. So much talent. The light show and confetti were huge bonuses. Deryck is such an amazing crowd pleaser. The audience interactions were on point. Real talent. Real music 👌
Great time at the concert! Sum 41 was amazing and also the pre shows. Would definitely recommend it, I'd go again no doubt.
