The blink 182 general discussion topic

[Cum 3646]

Is there a chance the surprise and the Kerrang announcement are the same thing? 

[allsystemsgo 401]

The setlist may be "different" but going from stale shit to a little less stale shit isn't that good.

Kerrang Announcment:

 

Band says will start recording in 90 days... 

 

....internet goes crazy.

Paramore and AM both did 90% singles, like Blink. They were playing in front of 100,000- it'd have killed the atmosphere to play too many non-singles

"We're going to play some songs off our last EP, songs that we haven't played in Europe," he says. "That came out at the end of 2012, so we'll do that, and then we'll play a lot of the classics, but we'll have something special that we haven't played for a long, long time that we've brought back and people are going to love that."  HEH.

Sure the show was fine but ffs throw in at least 1-2 oldies for the hardcore fans. It's just lazy.

WTF was that Kerrang announcement? That they're on the magazine cover?

Wow! Why do they do that again and again...but still great show! Won´t let this ruine that great show.

Unless Blink are doing the Kerrang Tour (Doubt it)

[Ghent 18715]

I don't get why violence was in the encore or why they used the fuck sign during it. Also tired if the dammit/confetti/family reunion ending. It has gotten old.

Those are my complaints.

In fairness, we don't know when that was recorded, or the context it was taken in. People are always misquoted, for example without reading the last part too closely lots of people assumed it referred to the fuck sign. Now if you, as a journalist, decide to quote from notes, then it may be a very different story. 

 

Or they say shit they don't mean or follow up on all the time. Take your pick.

 

Still a fucking awesome show and a great live recording hopefully!

This is really going to be the test. Tom is all gung ho about Blink now just like he was last year....new album by Reading and all that. Now everything has just advanced a year.

 

So with AVA in the works it will be very interesting to see if this continues or it fizzles. I don't think Mark or Travis will allow themselves to be dealt another no show by Tom.

 

So its kind of make or break this coming year I think.

[bojangles 392]

Did they play Asthenia in pro shot?

[Jamie 204]

I guess the surprise was them actually not playing anything differently for Reading?

You might be right, but in fairness you've also said this for the past 5 years.  Weak-minded.

We all know they'll go back to they way they were. And when they do record, it won't be for very long.

[shoop36 47]

100,000+ people chanting "What the fuck! What the fuck!" after they realized Blink didn't deliver on that promise would have been epic. I doubt too many people knew or cared though.

LOL

That's my feeing on it too.....but I guess I am in for this. Might as well be. Hope for the best prepare for the worst.

They did. It wasn't very good though IMO. One of the weaker ones in the set which is strange.
