i saw lots of bands at the barn back in the day. sang on stage with buck o' nine once. i think safe ferris opened. never managed to catch blink there, sadly. it's a shame the venue closed; the building is reportedly still on campus they just don't use it for shows.

found more information on this show :

8/19/1995: I had this date recorded prior to finding the poster for the aforementioned show: "The band performs at the Riverport Amphitheatre in St. Louis, Missouri as a part of Pointfest 4." It didn't contain a source and was not one of Kevin-182's dates, so while probably real, it could've been in 1996. Leaving this here for now.

Let's reminisce about one of the most classic #Pointfest lineups in history! Today's #PointfestFlashback is from August 19, 1995 and featured The Ramones, Everclear, The Urge, They Might Be Giants, Better Than Ezra, Blink-182, Ben Folds Five & more

I'm pretty curious about the above. What makes you think that the location is incorrect? (the show could've been moved to a different venue at the last minute, It happened a few times), Can you provide the original source of these pictures? Cheers

Here is the original source of the pictures

https://www.facebook.com/chris.converse/media_set?set=a.1342417753461&type=3

The Facebook post dates those pictures to 12/01/1995 at the Roxy, Brisbane, and if we look at the current poster that we have for that tour, they played a show on that same day and at that same location The Roxy in Brisbane.

They definitely changed the venues between the annoucement of the tour via their newsletter and with the official poster of that tour, the first three dates of the tour have different locations (proof with the picture underneath).

Totally agree. The Roxy is the correct location as you are saying, the timeline entry needs to be updated:

12/1/1995: 

The band performs at Stewart's in Mooloolabah, The Roxy, Brisbane, Australia, beginning the second, Australian leg of the GoodTimes tour.

Other bands included Pennywise, Bodyjar, and Downtime.

FYI the Australian Vans Warped Tour '98 dates shown on the official website here are not very accurate, some of the shows ended up being changing.

I provided these as new additions to the timeline back in Feb this year however none of them were updated accordingly. @boxelder let's get them next time if possible please. Cheers

Here's another photoshoot from the same day, backstage at Borderline (I'm guessing these pictures were taking from the same photographer):

https://iconicpix.photoshelter.com/gallery/Sep-14-1999-BLINK-182-Photosession-in-London/G0000cQjsEq.wzm8/C0000BCPAlhDrnvY


It's funny cause the other day I cycled passed this venue and it reminded me that Blink 182 had played there in 99 so I took a picture of what used to be the front door:

IMG-20200531-180812.jpg

Borderline was closed last year. It is literally 200-300 meters away from the legendary venue "Astoria 2" where blink also played in 1997.

Here's also a pretty cool review of Borderline's show:
https://www.theguardian.com/culture/1999/sep/16/artsfeatures5

There's a full audio bootleg of this show too.

Something's wrong with this date. Note that the newspaper refers to a venue called DV8's which has nothing to do with the timeline entry Mazzotti's. Must be that the show was moved to DV8's, I think it's worth adding a comment about this on the timeline entry for this show.

@boxelder - FYI the link on the timeline entry for this show is not right.
