We love seeing the moments you all spent with us over the years. From our first show at The Opera House to our last show at Scotiabank Arena, you have been with us every step of the way. What was your favorite moment with us? 🖤
Deryck breaks down the guitar he played on stage with Iggy Pop on David Letterman (yeah, that performance!) and if that wasn't enough, this is also the same guitar he used to record 13 Voices. One guitar, a whole lot of iconic moments. Check out the full video on YouTube.
Throwback to Iggy Pop's release party for "Skull Ring" in 2003. Check out our YouTube tomorrow for a video from Deryck discussing his experience with Iggy.

Thank you to Ryan Brancia on Instagram for asking about why I created Fat Lip. It was conceptualized really early on, but it took a while for it all to come together.
Back in 2016, I had the honor to sit down with Candy Palmater and discuss how I wrote War, and the impact of my recovery on my writing. She was a wonderful interviewer who approached our conversation with empathy and curiosity. Eternally grateful.
Motivation was one of the earlier songs I wrote for All Killer. It also became a song that made it into almost every setlist throughout our entire career.
You don't often see me play bass but I do admit I love to come up some bass lines now and then. Check out the full fourth episode of Deryck's Guitar Collection over on YouTube.
Throwback to hanging with @bertkreischer and admitting that Mötley Crüe and Guns N' Roses gave us completely unrealistic expectations about what "making it" was supposed to look like 😂 Turns out not a lot bands actually partied like that. More for us I guess.
Thank you to HorrorNerdUK on Instagram for asking this question! It's a hard one to answer because I truly love to write riffs. It's difficult to pick just one.
Our very first time on a private jet. Once All Killer No Filler started taking off, everything moved fast — our schedules became so demanding that we were constantly being whisked onto jets, helicopters, and the backs of motorcycles just to make it to the next place on time.
Nobody knew if In Too Deep was going to land. We just showed up, pointed cameras at real people having the time of their lives, and hoped for the best. Stevo's Triple Lindy. Dave and the guitar. Two days of chaos. Here's what it looked like behind the scenes.
Our first headline show in London. We had no idea if anyone would know the songs. We had no idea how many people would show up. We had no idea what we were walking into. What we got was one of the craziest shows we'd had up to that point — and the start of something between Sum 41 and England that lasted our entire career.
This was us right before All Killer No Filler dropped. Clearly very comfortable in front of cameras. Totally knew what we had. Absolutely certain it was all going to work out. Four guys at the peak of their confidence. Nothing awkward happening here whatsoever.
We were honored to receive the "Live Performance of the Year" award at the @Canadian_Live last week. It was also great to present our dear friend @KevinLyman with the "Global Impact in Live Music" award. There's no one more deserving. Thank you for your continued support, and congratulations to all winners.
