When We Were Young Festival (Las Vegas) Tour • Page 189

There's so many more you should seeeeeee, you can make it worth it!! Do it for me!!

 

I definelty was expecting for Coheed to close a stage and to play against MCR

 

I just figured since they’re doing album plays, NFG’s album feels bigger than PTV’s but it does make a lot of sense to have NFG on a later slot on the side stage than an earlier on main given the limitations of needing Dan to play guitar.

 

give me the best schedule between LS Dunes and JEW and I’ll check those albums

 

LS Dunes to Cartel, Chroma is such a powerhouse of an album and they still sound pristine all these years later

Coheed and Cambria seems absolutely necessary to me, their live show is always HUGE and an experience

The Starting Line are killin it currently, I just saw them a few months back and they sound at the top of their game and Kenny is such a positive and enjoyable frontman

Motion City Soundtrack, a landmark of an album and always a good show

dinner

Jimmy Eat World
Fall Out Boy
MCR

 

If I were there I would see what the new Anberlin disaster is like, maybe peek at Underoath and Saosin. I would absolutely see Dashboard Confessional, but wouldn't really recommend that set to you. I would see some Story of the Year if there was time after Coheed, check out Cobra for Gabe and the fun of it all. Maybe some TBS and Used if time permitted, maybe see Bayside. I would see Chiodos, knowing it will probably be a shell of itself, but again.... I don't think I would actually recommend that batch to you, just extra color for what I would see

 

Besides Motion city soundtrack and movements, I don't have that many conflicts as far as the schedule goes, I already had a feeling i'd be seeing some partial sets.

 

Looking at the main stages, I feel comfortable in saying that the only things I'd really want to see there before FOB and MCR are Underoath and Coheed and with Underoath doing their own tour for that record, Cartel is the one to watch there.

The Starting Line - Motion City - Bayside - NFG is an excellent combo

 

Been working on this since the drop… think I got my overall gameplan

Mayday Parade 12:25-1:05

Coheed and Cambria 2:30-3:30
Simple Plan 4:10-4:55

I'm working on my schedule but I think it's something like this.

Underoath
The devil wears prada
Thursday
Four year strong (partial set)
Senses fail (partial set)
The wonder years (partial set)
Taking back sunday
Motion city soundtrack (partial set)
Movements
Pierce the veil
Jimmy eat world
Dance gavin dance
Fall out boy
My chemical romance

 

It looks like My chemical romance is playing 30 mins of extra songs if the festival ends at 12

 

Just realized Coheed and Thursday overlap too… Who was in charge of the schedule?

 

I'm glad when we were young didn't mess up my schedule like sick new world did this year, three of my top 5 played at the same time (System of a down, Sleep token, Swans)

 

This is how my schedule is so far for both days. Dark grey means a must see, light grey means Im still thinking about it.

Also not sure why on my grid The Starting Line repeats at the end. It got downloaded like that

Saturday:



Sunday:

 

TBS - Silverstein - Armor for Sleep is the only major overlap for me. I’ve seen What To Do When You’re Dead and Discovering The Waterfront before. Silverstein is my favorite of the 3 but I’m also going to their Friday show. It’ll be a tough call

 

This *should* be a feasible schedule for me based on what I experienced last year:

Emery

Saosin

Thursday

FYS/Senses Fail (will probably see half of each set)

The Starting Line

Motion City

Bayside

Jimmy

FOB

MCR

 

If I were going for just one day, I'd do Cartel, Underoath, 3OH!3, State Champs, Cobra Starship, The Maine, Silverstein, Motion City Soundtrack, Bayside, Jimmy Eat World, A Day to Remember, Fall Out Boy, My Chemical Romance

 

I was a big fan of Chiodos back in the day. I've never seen them live.

Are they worth checking out? I don't really have any other conflict at the beginning of their set besides grabbing food/beer.

 

It will be their first show in over 9 years and I think only Craig Owens is involved from the original members, so not sure what to expect from their set.

 

I saw them in 2013 with my favorite lineup they ever had (the one with the guy from The Fall of Troy) and I was really impressed, but with this being a hired guns thing and their first show back in a long time it's kind of risky

 

Comparing set times with album lengths, it seems some bands wont have time to play their album in full:

Mayday Parade have a 40 minutes set and A Lesson In Romantics is 46 minutes long

Dashboard Confessional have a 40 minuted set and Dusk and Summer is 43 minutes long (unless they cut Vindicated as it was originally a hidden track, but dont think they will cut one of their hits)

Coheed and Cambria have a 60 minuted set and Good Apollo is 71 minutes long

The Forecast have a 35 minutes set and In The Shadow of Two Gunmen is 37 minutes long.

Some are more easy to achieve than others, but not sure what will Mayday Parade and Coheed will cut to fit their albums in their time slot

 

Everything played slightly faster and zero crowd interaction.

kinda hope someone just literally plays the CD. My money’s on Millionaires.

 

Cobra def isn't doing the album with Nice Guys, you make me feel, good girls go bad, snakes on a plane, and hot mess on both of their sets.

 

No one’s mentioned the possibility of medleys. You still have to factor in talking in between songs/gear swap/crowd interaction etc. A mash up for some of the lesser known tracks could help accomodate the set times.

 

A coheed medley sounds hilarious in my head
