The TRL set in MTV’s Times Square studio was jam packed with screaming Sum 41 fans on October 14th, when the band performed live on the show. Gibson and Epiphone were also in full force by helping the band surprise the studio audience with an Epiphone Les Paul Jr., given to every single studio audience member. Afterwards, all of Times Square was buzzing about the event, and everyone had an Epiphone guitar case on their back.
