A Southwest Airlines flight from Los Angeles to Orlando, Florida was turned into an impromptu concert on Friday (Nov. 13) as several artists from the upcoming Vans Warped Tour stopped mid-flight. Simple Plan, Hoobastank, The Used, and LØLØ took to the cabin to entertain passengers on their way to the concert venue in Orlando for the Saturday (Nov. 14) show at Camping World Stadium.
Passengers captured the performances on video, showcasing Hoobastank frontman Doug Robb singing an acoustic rendition of the band's hit "The Reason," which reached No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 2004. Simple Plan frontman Pierre Bouvier also performed acoustic versions of "Perfect" and "I'm Just a Kid." The Used played "The Taste of Ink," while LØLØ performed her track "hot girls in hell."
The concert was part of the airline's Live at 35 series, which brings surprise live musical performances to passengers cruising at approximately 35,000 feet. Southwest shared the clips on its Instagram Stories, highlighting the unique experience for both the musicians and the passengers aboard the flight.
