Artistfacts:
| They hail from Ajax, Ontario. That's in Canada. |
| Cone's real name is Jay. (thanks, the shwa, Canada) |
| They were signed by Island Records after they sent them a videotape of the band engaging in water gun fights with their music in the background. |
| On their first tour, Whibley brought along everything he owned (clothing, TV, video games, etc.). It was all stolen. |
| They have a reputation for being destructive on the road. For recreation, they have been known to destroy hotel rooms with BB guns. |
| Whibley was once in a rap group called Powerful Young Hustlers. |
| They wrote their first song together about a security guard who hassled them while they were skateboarding. It was called "Five-O Grind." |
| The name Sum 41 comes from the day they first saw the warped tour. it was the 41st day of summer. (thanks, Dan - West Hartford, CT) |
| The band usually has (at least) a few drinks before taking the stage. Whibley says hit helps him overcome his shyness. |
| The band formed on the 41st day of summer, after seeing the Warped tour. |
| Baksh goes by the nickname "Brown Sound." (thanks, james - Des Moines, IA, for above 2) |
| Baksh left the band to work on a new metal band, Brown Brigade. (thanks, the shwa, Canada) |
| Frontman Deryck Whibley tied the knot with Avril Lavigne on July 15 2006 in Montecito, California. They had been engaged since summer 2005. He was 26, she was 21. (thanks, Matthew - Fleetwood, England) |

| Sum 41 went into the congo to shoot a documentary called "War Child Canada." It was to raise the awarness of what goes on in third world countries. They were in there hotel room when a bomb went off about a mile away. A fight broke out and they just barely made it thanks to a man named Chuck. That is what inspired there new album, titled, "Chuck" - Will, Omaha, NE |
| After Deryck dated Paris Hilton, he was seen with Avril Lavigne. - A.J., Chicago, IL |
| Not a bad band as far as pop-punk goes. They didn't mention that the drummer does vocals on some songs too. - Luke, Martin, TN |
| How can you actually care about what happens to this atrocious disaster that you call music? |
