blink-182 Band • Page 1420

blink-182 life. for life.

 

Great night at the blink show. So many old blink people ive not spoken to in ages!

Setlist was good, but really hoping for this final night of the tour they give us something from the other selection of songs such as going away to college, easy target, m&ms or wendy clear.

 

He realizes he's currently on the money train and doesn't ever want to get off it again. He'll now have more money than ever to plow into his To The Stars stuff (more books, movies, series', etc), along with any potential future music side projects.

 

Green Day might be tighter as a band but all the “hey-ohs” and the breaks mid song to play to the crowd with the same beat and bass line playing make me prefer Blinks shows way more.

 

hot take: i love the hey-ohs lol. but i know what you mean.

 

I get the comparisons to Green Day and blink, but they are different beasts. So Cal pop punk band that an eternal youth and dark edge and a Gilman scrappy punk band that broke through into the mainstream with very specific purpose and intentionality. I do not think pop disaster will ever happen again and genuinely do not need to see it. In some ways Green Day has transcended where they came from and they are a proper radio rock arena show band, and to me blink has maintained their essence and continues to bring the spirit of pop punk still today. Green Day has broad festival appeal, and if you’re going to blink you get a very specific experience. I am firmly in the blink camp, but 1000000% see the Green Day appeal and why they have such a devoted and loyal fan base. It is funny to me that Green Day sees themselves as too cultured to be on a bill with blink while in the same breath they are willing to put out FOAM and tour with Weezer and Fall Out Boy.

 

Someone tell Green Day that blink is the bigger band in 2024 and they’ll do PD2

 

New (lengthy) clips on the stall handles. "Every Other Weekend" sounds soooo good.

 

gonna hold out and not listen to any clips. the whole thing's out next friday, right?

 

"Every Other Weekend" has heavy cure vibes to it. Part 2 is starting to give me Untitled vibes after all the previews and singles.

 

where my head went right away. this one sounds great

EDIT: Damn these 3 clips have me way more excited after the first 2 that were released.

 

Something that includes the song No Fun has no business being compared to Untitled, regardless of how good the rest of the Part 2 songs end up being.

 

Can't Go Back sounds really great despite the buried guitar tracks.

 

Holding steady here... I did listen to the Can't Go Back clip though... tasty

 

No Fun is a good song

 

Can't Go Back is the clear favorite here for me. Every Other Weekend is definitely my second favorite from what's been released and the clips.

 

These sound amazing. I’m so glad they have been playing Cant Go Back. It sounds even better as a recording. Can’t wait to hit play.

 

Didn't even realize that the clips for three other songs are linked on the stall as well - just click the lyrics. I only listened to the three linked from the urinals. So six clips in total.

 

These three urinal clips sound so much better to me than all in my head and no fun. So stoked for can’t go back.

Clicking on lyrics now. Chorus of if you never left absolutely rocks - don’t think I’m gonna love mark’s verse but we’ll see!

 

"Everyone Everywhere" is the only one I'm sort of meh on at the moment, but the rest sound great. I'm loving the sort of softer clean sound of "One Night Stand", "Every Other Weekend" and "Can't Go Back".

 

i don’t have or use tik tok but the same clips are on instagram music. Sounds like a mix of post neighborhoods what may have been, some NINE bits(never left mark part sounds lifted from NINE), and some cool curveballs. Everyone Everywhere has a big time BCR sounding riff. Nothing that reaches the heights of OMT, but i’m not really even looking for or expecting that. From the clips it sounds words better than california deluxe. I imagine these songs will get a reasonable amount of plays from me. I really only ever went back to parking lot right after california deluxe came out.

*edit Oh damn i didn’t realize there were minute clips, I was only hearing 15 seconds at first. These sound fantastic. They way the NINE type parts work with the tom riffs and vocal parts are really cool. there truly is magic when these three throw down. i won’t listen again until next week when they drop but im more excited hearing the clips than I was before

 

Finally, last night of the tour! What a night, what a show. I got Wendy Clear and Anthem Pt 3. Was worried I’d not get both with the way the UK run had been. Nearly 20 years since I first saw them in Dec 2004. Last year I asked Mark in discord if he’d play “Everytime..” as his wife had posted about it. He said no. Buzzing he replied to me. Gutted at the answer. However when he said they had a special surprise tonight, I thought I was in luck. It was just the Parker feature. He did a good job to be fair.

 

I know they aren't really blink related (other than Tom owns the company), but these new TTS shirts are pretty cool...

If I was a lot skinnier I would probably get one.

 

Went on TikTok just to listen. I’m super intrigued by “Every Other Weekend” and “If You Never Left”

only one more week!
