Show Preview: Sum 41 @ Showbox SoDo – 10/13/19

Canada’s Sum 41 headlines at Showbox SoDo on Sunday, October 13th. Bringing The Amity Affliction and The Plot In You with them, Sum 41 kicks of their Order in Decline Tour on Saturday. The tour gets its name from Sum 41’s latest release, which just hit stores in July.
It’s a bit difficult to put Sum 41 into any specific rock genre. This isn’t a bad thing. I’ll just call them rock with hardcore elements. While the setlist promises to feature Order in Decline strongly, the band revealed on their Facebook that special attention will be paid to their album Chuck, which turns 15 this year (!!!) .
While putting together a set list for the Order In Decline World Tour, we decided to do something special. In addition to launching this world tour for our new album, Order In Decline, we are also celebrating the 15th Anniversary of our album Chuck.
We’ll be playing songs from our two heaviest albums, as well as fan favorites from throughout our career into one behemoth sized set each night. We couldn’t let this monumental anniversary pass us by and we are so ready to bring this tour to fans across the United States.
Admirably, Sum 41 will donate $1 from every ticket sold to War Child, an organization which helps families affected by war.
Personal detail from me: Does This Look Infected?, Sum 41’s second album, always gets high marks for name alone.
