blink-182 Band • Page 1237

Yeah I saw them three times in September. While the first and third were pretty good, they seemed like different people in Copenhagen. As written before there was no energy or movement

 

Yeah the Millencolin cover was the only highlight.

 

The singer needs to ditch the mic stand

 

What millencolin song

 

No Cigar!

So you didn’t like the kicks? Lol. Tbh I thought his nu-metalish pose was kind of cool.

 

We sure he should still be doing kicks on stage

 

Story so far wasn’t great in my date. Mostly because all songs sound the same and the bad sound didn’t improve it.

the bass player is the dude from Man Overboard and that’s a bad that I have way more attachment and would rather just be seeing so that didn’t help

 

TSSF have always been super boring live. Their crowds typically make up for the lack of energy on stage, but that’s not going to translate well at an arena show

 

All I’ll say about TSSF, outside of the kick, is that the vocalist’s inflection drives me fucking crazy.

 

Never been able to get into any of the TSSF, Man Overboard, Neck Deep, etc bands. Never felt like any of them write good choruses or very memorable stuff in general

 

If crowds were sitting during Turnstile, they’ll sit for majority of other openers. Just how arena shows go for opening acts

 

TSSF's lead singer, Parker Cannon, has a a side project called No Pressure that does kind of old school pop-punk music. It's pretty good.

 

Why do you not like it ?

 

Cause the drummer should not be playing music.

 

Yep, awful stuff. It all got brushed under the rug too which is fucked.

 

OMG I had no idea he was the laptop in the van dude. That story is fucked up.

 

It's 100% When I look back https://reddit.com/r/Blink182/s/9dTopc2crU

Weird how official lyric videos and sheets be so off. Shouldn't they have come directly from the band? lol. Mark said on discord they were wrong too.

 

Sat in bed and my head's still ringing. Blink were absolutely amazing tonight. Extremely grateful I got to see them live in their reformed trio. Managed to get good position and they were almost in arms reach. Easily one of the best shows I've been to.

Agree with comments further up, TSSF didn't sound great. I did momentarily wonder if it was just poor sound quality where we were stood, thinking maybe the speakers were weird. Stood further back and central and they still sounded poop. Couldn't hear a word Parker was saying.

 

Might be in the minority here but I would’ve loved to have seen TSSF open for blink. I would’ve freaked out.

That being said, I ended up becoming obsessed with White Reaper and Turnstile after my shows in May, so it’s great that happened.

 

Just after Under Soil and Dirt came out, I got to see TSSF headline a tiny free show to promote Bamboozle. Tiny little place. Stage about a foot off the ground. Basically played in the crowd. And it was one of the most hype shows I’ve ever been too.

Seen them like 4 times since then and they’ve never come even remotely close to that energy. Always come away somewhat disappointed.

 

Jason we still thinking less then California in terms of sales?

 

Does anyone else in this thread feel that Tom is a decent sized omission on Rolling Stone's 250 greatest guitarists ever list?

 

Hard to say. He inspired so many kids to pick up guitar (including me!), and his parts are creative, but I don’t know that he’s necessarily a good guitarist lol. I do love what he does with it though!

 

Yeah, I thought about that too but the list seems to really value influence. Billie Joe Armstrong didn't make the list either, but the Sex Pistols' Steve Jones did. I found that odd.
