American rock band Bowling For Soup were at the Motorpoint Arena on Thursday night to celebrate twenty years since the release of their fifth studio album, A Hangover You Don’t Deserve, and they delivered a set that brought hope, humour and some rock tinged classics to a sold out crowd.
It’s been a whopping 20 years since Bowling For Soup performed in Toronto, and as of this past Friday, the pop-punk legends finally made their triumphant return as they performed to a sold out crowd at The Phoenix Concert Theatre with The Anti-Queens and Rival Towns.
