While speaking to iHeartRadio Canada‘s Jesse Modz and JD Lewis, Whibley was asked if it was “starting to feel a bit more real” that the ‘In Too Deep’ rockers would be performing at some of the Canadian cities for the last time.

“Well, the weird thing for me is I don’t ever really look at particular shows or single dates. For the first time, this is actually hitting me that the Canadian run is gonna be the last run. So I look at it as a whole rather than just certain dates,” he replied.
