[August 31...Dublin, Ireland...The o2]

I was at both this show and the Reading fest show. Reading was truly epic: as well as it being the first time I've seen Blink in 6 years, it was so nice to see them so popular and to have 80,000 odd people singing along. However, performance-wise, Dublin was by far better. And the main reason for this was Tom. At Reading he seemed pretty drunk - or at least looked it - and thus some of his singing was really pretty poor. But at Dublin, he looked totally sober and was properly singing - none of the weird 'singing' like in First Date at other shows. He was the best I've ever seen him. As a result, the overall 'Blink-182' musical performance was a lot, lot better.

Yes yes yes - if it's a standing ticket?
