Well, they have done as much US touring as UK touring. As in Eastpak equals to Warped.
You can't call Warped their US tour, especially when they only played four (?) shows this year. And they only played like 3-4 shows at the time of the album release. Excluding Warped Tour this and last year, the previous US tour was in 2007. The previous UK tour excluding the 5-6 shows on Eastpak was in 2008, so I don't follow you with your quote.

I don't think that Easpak equals to Warped. They were never headliners in Warped (not last year, nor this year) so they played a 30 minutes set of 8-9 songs only, while in Eastpak last year they actually headlined the tour, and as you remember they played varied sets from around 16 to 18-19 songs, even playing on some dates No Reason and No Brains. So Eastpak was pretty much a headlining European tour for them, I think even their first European headlining tour in 2010, and they had like 7 dates in the UK so I don't think it's that bad. In the US they haven't played a headlining show since 2007, except the 7-8 shows in March like the album release show in Pomona, so I think US fans deserve a Sum 41 show more haha.

Yeah, you're totally right. Eastpak was way more Sum 41's tour than Warped. So I don't understand what Gregor means by "recent US tour" or "haven't toured in UK for ages".

I just mean that, if look at the time span between 2008 and now, the Sums have been to the UK once as part of the Eastpak tour. On the other hand, how many times have they visited the US since then?

Well, I guess technically yeah, they were more in the US since the UH tour in 2007-2008, while the UK only had Eastpak they were in the US already a few times, but never on a headlining tour, so seeing them playing only 8 songs as part of a festival isn't really that good... I mean, it's better than nothing for anyone who haven't seen the Sums, but it's really not equals Eastpak which was headlining and they played like 18 songs there every night.
Though except Warped 2010, no other US tour was major. They did like 8 random dates around the release of the album and 3 dates in Warped 2011 before cancelling.
Gonna have to resort to either Soton and crashing at a uni mates house, or somehow getting a ticket for a decent price (not on Viagogo atm - £59 for cheapest!)
