That Sum 41 show was insane and the catalyst for the Stampede stepping back and really paying attention to what kind of bands they bring on, not before fining the band tens of thousands for swearing up a storm.
Sum 41 was coming off their Chuck album and arguably too big for the Coke Stage. It showed in the crowd and they made a statement that they wouldn't book major punk/rock bands anymore.
