Taking Back Sunday - 152 (October 27, 2023) Album • Page 73

Yep, he's gotta pay the bills and as long as he's not misleading people into thinking they're seeing a TBS show, doesn't seem like an issue

 

Really? Cool, I never knew that!
One that you guys haven't brought up yet is Eddie also came up with the riff for "A Decade Under The Influence."
You guys were right though, that Adam John are always the center of attention in interviews so we don't really get to hear the other guys' views on the writing process, or any of that lore. (I'm also still new to the fandom so perhaps that's also just because of that, why I don't know this lore.)
Adam has always been shy in interviews, but it was very bad back in early days. I'm really talking about that late 2002/early 2003 interview where he refuses to look at the camera. Luckily, he has come a long way since then.

 

Fred has really been on a streak with these reimagining's.

 

lol, not "original TBS singer Antonio." I haven't thought about proto-TBS in years.

Maybe he should connect with Fred and make a band together.

 

Him, Fred, Eddie, and Matt. Probably put D'Esposito and Fazzi in there too. A band made up of ex-members lol. (This will not happen.)

 

Taking Back Monday.

 

Put Will Noon on the drums, and I'm so down for that.

 

Fred and Eddie did start a band last year, didn't they? I think they played a few times and then it fizzled.

 

I think The Color Fred did a tour with Eddie's new band, and they would end each night with a 4 song TBS set.

 

The new Reel posted today has Adam with his harmonica (as well as his guitar like always) and it's seriously giving me hope for "Divine Intervention."

 

I thought the story on the 180 By Summer riff was they were playing around with Ghost Man on Third and either Fred or Eddie started playing all the notes together instead of plucking the strings, because isn’t it the same notes? Lol

 

Also John’s screams on TAYF are awesome, he just doesn’t seem to be able to do it anymore without shredding his voice (I assume that’s why he holds back at shows it seems). But Fred’s screams are awesome too. Trying to emulate his screams on WYWTB is basically how I learned how to sing-scream haha

 

Not tbs, but John's screams sound so good in Hands in the Sky

 

Hell yeah. I still remember the first time me and my buddy saw that music video start at his house one day, and we saw it say stray light run and we were like oh that’s the same band that does that existentialism song that our friend likes, let’s listen…last half of that song and video smacked us in the face lol

Still crazy to me that millions of people know or have at least heard that song because of Sons of Anarchy haha

 

If anyone learns anything cool and new about the behind of the scenes of 152 from the Storytellers Package, please post about it here! I'd love to know and my concert date is July 26th so I'm gonna have to wait to get the lore. :/

 

Damn this tour setlist is real good

 

I had no idea…hope everything is alright with Mark.

 

Feels like summer this morning, and that often trips memories of MakeDamnSure and Louder Now. I love how music weaves with memory like that.

I remember seeing Fred on what I think was his first tour (10/7/03 - I remember because that was the night Arnold was elected governor) with them when they were opening(?) for Saves the Day during the In Reverie tour. I remember there was almost a chuckle from the crowd at Fred's kind of square, professorial appearance (moccasins; perfectly manicured beard; he kind of looked old even when young) but you could almost feel a shift and acceptance from the crowd when they played Decade and that last scream rang out.

 

Wonder if Mark will be back in a weeks time or not. Also, setlist is good, but kinda lame theyre only doing 65 min at this point in their careers

 

20 songs has to be longer than 65 minutes?

 

I out the sings in a Playlist for my wife and i

I put the songs in a Playlist for my wife and it's an hr 8. So 68 min. Oopsie. Should add 5 more/15-20 min

 

Well, when you factor in the 16 "Ladies and Gentlemen' ad-libs, they're probably on stage for at least 90 minutes.

 

with banter, etc. that's likely a 80-90 minute set.

 

Sum 41 holds the new record for ladies and gentlemen.
