[edit] Biography
Comeau started his music career in Reset with fellow bandmate Pierre Bouvier. After the band's first CD was released, Comeau left the band and went to McGill University to pursue a degree in Law, intending to follow in his father's footsteps as a lawyer.
After reuniting with Bouvier at a concert, he soon left school and helped Bouvier to form Simple Plan. In Simple Plan, Comeau, along with Bouvier, are the main songwriters. He is sometimes known as the "writer" of the band as he does most of the lyrics, writes all the concepts, and writes the scripts to Simple Plan's music videos.
[edit] Rolemodel Clothing
He is co-owner of Role Model Clothing, along with Pierre Bouvier and Simple Plan's webmaster, photographer, and videographer Patrick Langlois.
Role Model Clothing is a clothing line owned by Bouvier, Langlois and Comeau(who are often seen wearing the shirts on stage and in the band's music videos). The line mostly markets shirts, which invariably include the words "ROLE MODEL" in the design. Erik Chandler, from the band Bowling for Soup, is often seen wearing a Role Model shirt.
