Sum 41 will be playing in Los Angeles on Thursday, October 17th for a tour unlike any other. In celebration of the 15th anniversary of their multi-platinum album Chuck, the band has decided to add those songs to the setlist in addition to their Order In Decline album.
“We are so excited to be hitting the road throughout North America for the Order In Decline World Tour. We’ll be combining two of our 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 2 full albums (and then some) worth of music to fans across the United States” shares front man Deryck Whibley. This setlist will make it the longest live show they have played in North America. In an interview with Alternative Press, Whibley states, “Some of those songs we’re going to be playing, we’ve never played ever.”
Be sure to support Sum 41 with The Amity Affliction & The Plot In You on Thursday, October 17th – Doors at 6:00pm, Show at 7:00pm at the Hollywood Palladium – 6215 W Sunset Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90028. For tickets visit http://www.sum41.com/tour.
Preceding the release of Chuck in 2004, Sum 41 filmed a documentary for War Child Canada in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. To add to the uniqueness of the tour, $1 from every ticket sold on the Order In Decline North American Tour will go to War Child to support children and families in communities affected by war throughout the world. The band goes back to their philanthropy roots to honor the album Chuck. For more information please visit http://warchildusa.org/ and http://warchild.ca/.

Lead singer Deryck Whibley is involved more than ever with Order In Decline. Whibley took producing, engineering, and mixing the album serious in his own home studio. He combined the guitar solos from lead guitarist/backing vocalist Dave Brownsound, harmonious chords from guitarist Tom Thacker and the heavy, heart-thumping rhythm section of bassist/backing vocalist Cone McCaslin and drummer Frank Zummo.
