Gossip Hometown is Ajax, Ontario.
They Like Playing Motivation and think Pain For Pleasure is fun, as long as their in leather.
Steve likes Mint chocolate chip icecream (but who really cares).
(Steve quote) We're the drunken rugby buddies that met in high school, although none of us played rugby except for Dave, who they used to call the Machine.
We're high school friends that joined a band.
They are loud-mouthed and immature most of the time.
(Cone quote) I think a lot of people, because they see all the sh-t that we do, think we're jerks. And we are--but not all the time.
(Steve quote) Just because we like to f--k around a little bit doesn't mean you shouldn't like us.
(Dave quote) We're basically out to have a lot of fun and have a good time. We're not mad at anything like a lot of bands out there.
(Steve quote) Cone is quiet, but he's a smart character. An attractive young man, he's the sweetheart of the band. The girls love him.
(Steve quote) Dave is the most punk rock person in the band, so he's mister credibility...Aw geez, that's really a like. Dave's not punk rock at all.
(Steve quote) Deryck the is the puppeteer. And me, i'm crazy, Wooo!!
(Steve quote) I dont think music has anything to do with it. It basically has to do with my humour, Cone's looks, Deryck's attitude and Dave's darkness.
Steve doesn't have his license, because he failed.
Sum 41 like Slayer, and the Maiden.
Dave liked death metal bands like Cannibal Corpse, Carcass and Venom.
Steve kind of likes cheesier stuff. Priest. Hell Bent for Leather.
Deryk always gets hit in the face with the mic.
Deryck and Steve are single bachelors going through puberty and ready to romp. (romp....what a word...)
Steve says they were losers in HS. They had an odd little group of friends, but in Steve's group, he was the loser. It wasn't a big problem though.
Deryk used to be called a fag constantly because his hair was funky. (those people were jealous or deryck cuz he is cooler than them)
The difference in making All Killer No Filler than Half Hour of Power was that they wasted a lot more time. They were going to strip clubs every night. Lots of money and precious creative time was wasted. They had to have chaperones monitoring us. But everything turned out well in the end.
When asked what Sum 41's live show is like, Deryck replies "Non-stop, ass-whoopin' rock... for half an hour." Deryck five feet tall and Cone's a lot taller.
Cone doesn't think Destiny's Child are hot though Steve and Deryck agree they are.
Steve and Deryck nicknamed Jay to 'Cone'because he ate ice cream cones everyday in high school.
One time during a show, Cones pants and boxers fell down because his belt broke so he played the rest of the gig in just a t-shirt.
Steve wears a thong and sucks at sports so he is called 'Stevo 32' because he thinks athletes with the #32 excell well in sports.
Deryck is 'Bizzy Dee' because he's always busy (probably hitting on girls).
Derycks first concert was The Monkees and Weird Al Yankovich when he was 6. He grew up listening to The Beatles.
Dave is 'Brown Sound' because one day deryck just called him Brown Sound (well that's boring).
He also used to be nicknamed 'Hot Chocolate'. Dave only takes 2 pairs of shorts and 7 t-shirts on tour (he's a clean guy).
All the guys have a 41 tattoed on the back of their elbows (you can see them in the In Too Deep Video Shoot of Pics). Dave uses a PRS McCarty guitar with SIT strings and a Mesa/Boogie Dual Rectifier amp
Deryck uses a Gibson Marauder guitar with SIT strings and a Marshall 100-watt stack amp
First time on the road, Whibley brought everything he owned: clothes, recording equipment, TV set and video games. After the third day, everything was stolen; now he travels with 4 shirts and one pair of black Dickies pants. (that sucks monkey ass)
Whibley's recipe for making a milk bomb:
"What you do is leave a carton of milk in the sun for three days. Then you fill a balloon up with it, like a water balloon, except it's chunky. It's not fun when they hit you."
The guys have have thrown condoms filled with rancid milk and water at sunbathers. As well, a bag full of Steves shit was thrown at a door of military guys (in a hotel) who made fun of their spiky hair. (You can watch that action take place with their video 'Going Going, Gonnoreah.' Their first collective endeavor was a petty mischeif: Every weekend for two years, they threw eggs at a house of a guy they didn't like.
Comprised of four ugly young goons from AJAX, Canada(yes...if u noticed ealier...it was stupid and said toronto..no i am NOT dissing toronto...just much music sould get the band's home right!), Bizzy D, Dave Brownsound, Cone and Stevo32, were all once members in separate rival bands in high school, when they decided to join forces to create one ultimate band 41 days into the summer going into grade twelve. That band was SUM 41 and it kept their minds sidetracked enough to ensure that only three out of the four of them would get their diploma. So how did four seemingly uneducated, untalented, and unattractive dorks from Canada manage to dish out an album so deadly that 41 just may replace 666 as the new number of the beast? Well, after landing a deal with Island Records in late December of 1999 with the help of their now infamous home made EPK which includes footage of everything from their energetic live show to super-soaker drive-bys, SUM 41 began honing their skills on the road. Touring with bands like The Mighty Mighty Bosstones, Face to Face, the Offspring, Blink 182, Social Distortion and the Warped tour, they acquired enough worldly knowledge to develop their own recorded prophecy of impending doom and word of it is spreading like their butt cheeks. This recording is ALL KILLER, NO FILLER. An album packed with so much punk, metal, hip-hop and rock that itll corrupt Americas youth in a way thatll send grandma running for her diapers. In order to capture their definitive pop-punk sound, SUM 41 recruited producer, Jerry Finnbad Finn (Green Day, Blink 182), and engineer Jesus Joe McGrath to work on ALL KILLER, NO FILLER, an album soon to replace bibles in hotel rooms. With songs as catchy as Fat Lip, In Too Deepand Motivation, SUM 41 could easily spark a fan base large enough to conquer the KISS army. So prepare yourself because SUM 41 has a hidden agenda. Theyve developed a doomsday device so foul it could ignite the beginning of the end like a blue angel. SUM 41 have unleashed ALL KILLER, NO FILLER - a force unlike any the world has ever seen. Frightened? You should be. Remember, SUM 41 doesnt only just want to conquer the world...they want to destroy it.
Were you disappointed with the anti-climactic dawn of the new millenium? Youre not alone. When the computers didnt crash and the term "Y2K" only helped to make dumb people seem smarter, SUM 41 decided to take matters into their own hands and manufacture their own brand of armageddon by releasing an album so sinister, its already been hailed by Satan to be the best recording since REIGN IN BLOOD two horns WAY UP!! This album, is ALL KILLER, NO FILLER.
