"chops" just means raw playing ability. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because you put out new records doesn't mean you're not a legacy act... you actually have to play the songs you wrote. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He fears that the crowd won’t like the new songs and let’s be honest, it’s easier to play the known shit again and again compared to rehearsal new material. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Low Value Boy Posted October 3, 2019 Report Share Posted October 3, 2019 Only time will tell, unless Blink make the set list at least 50% of the new songs with Skiba then Mark is completely full of shit, I have no real beef with them being a greatest hits band to be honest, but stop trying to act like you're really moving the band forward when everything else you do just points to you clinging onto the past. My guess is the new set will maybe be made up of 20-25% of songs from that era (my guess would be Bored to Death, Cynical and maybe 2-3 off Nine) If Mark truly believes what he is saying it should be 3-4 songs off California and 5-6 off nine with maybe 10 from the previous Delonge era - can't see that happening though to be honest... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
