blink-182 Band • Page 311

Yeah on this current tour my wife said it was presale with an American Express card I was shocked when she told me the price

 

I think it would be so rad if each vinyl variant included a different bonus song. Like Pink is a Mark song, silver is a Tom song, and White/Travis variant has like joke songs haha.

TOYPAJ style.

 

I hope they bring Pathetic back. Also, gimme some Here's Your Letter.

 

When I Was Young is a top 10 methinks. This tour is our best chance of hearing it live

 

I paid $80 for blink/my chem pit in 2011

 

I paid $1 in 2003

 

Damn Bell Witch are *good*.

 

Ok, Bob Barker

 

I know I shouldn’t let this bother me today, but it really has ruined my day. Money-grubbing pieces of shit that Ticketmaster is.

anyone have billboard pro that wanna give the spark notes?

 

I paid 25 in 2000 for blink/bad religion/Fenix TX

I paid 15.50 in 2001 for blink/sum 41/alkaline

 

Already numerous tickets for resale on stubhub. This system is so broken

 

There’s reason for optimism. Earlier this year, My Chemical Romance‘s first major tour in over a decade brought in about $60 million, earning over $1 million per show with an average ticket price of around $75, thanks largely to millennial fans who had more money to spend than when they first listened to the band. (Notably, My Chemical Romance’s last big tour was in 2011 with none other than Blink-182.) Expect Blink-182 to even better — around $150 million, Billboard estimates. The band has grown in popularity since reaching the height of its chart success in the mid-2000s, headlining festivals and major radio shows like the iHeartRadio ALTer Ego event in 2021 prior to DeLonge rejoining the band.

 

I remember this. The venue I saw them at doesn’t even exist anymore.

 

Bought mine on eBay for $50 I think and gosh am I glad they were legit lol

 

All the North American dates for that tour were in 2000, weren’t they?

Toronto date cost me around $40, I think

 

Oops yeah typo, that was 2000

 

First show I ever went to. Will never forget it

 

I'd pay like a grand for them to play Side B of TOYPAJ

our generations Abbey Road Side B

 

Same. Will from Fenix TX brought me and my friend backstage and we hung out and chatted for like an hour and a half. Their publicist gave us great seats and we met Mark on the way out

I've told no story more but it's my best one lol

 

Last time I saw Blink with Tom was at a 500 person club in Brooklyn in 2013. Charity show that obviously sold out in seconds, so I had to buy on stubhub. I spent $130 and I thought that was a crazy amount of money to spend.

oh how the the times have changed.

 

2nd Toronto show added

 

Last time I saw blink was their reunion tour for my sister's birthday. My dad was a limo driver at the time and we had him dress up in his tux and drive us down in a limo. Got lots of interesting looks from people when we arrived lol

 

same, spent $150 on stubhub for their show at Starland Ballroom that year and thought that was hefty. Wouldn't trade it though with prices now and seeing them at a mid-cap venue
