Marik Posted January 25, 2020 Report Share Posted January 25, 2020 I thought of this when i was pondering which full album concert I would have prefered seeing Untitled 10th (2013) VS Enema 20th (2019). Quickly picked some other notables to make a poll out of it. I know some would pick Early Days when they only played CC+DR, but i sense those exact setlists are harder to come by (to know exactly which order what was played) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Backing Track Posted January 25, 2020 Report Share Posted January 25, 2020 Fat Tom no. Matt Skiba no. 2012 was cool but give me MTATS all day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marik Posted January 25, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2020 Yeah, when i was pondering the question i was thinking purely setlist song choices... and not the performance of them (like how '04 the speed was so ridiculously fast). But now i see, its REALLY hard to remove other factors from the equation like Tom vs Matt. For instance, MTATS is ALL about the banter, but setlist wise is lacking for me (compared to what would come later) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zzzz Posted January 25, 2020 Report Share Posted January 25, 2020 Yeah it’d be anything 99-04 for me. I will say the Untitled shows were amazing...getting that album front to back and then getting an encore with Not Now is ridiculous!!!

Jan Backing Track Posted January 25, 2020 Report Share Posted January 25, 2020 Whatever setlist does not include playing Violence extended every show to make it go from my favorite song to my least favorite live song really quick. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russel Coight Posted January 25, 2020 Report Share Posted January 25, 2020 04 definitely. That was blink at their best. I still remember watching that bootleg, I think it was at the Apollo maybe, either way pretty well known bootleg where Robert Smith comes out for all of this and boys don’t cry cover. Probably my favourite show of all time to watch or listen to. here it is, it was at Wembley: 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably my favourite show of all time to watch or listen to. here it is, it was at Wembley: I watched this bootleg so many times back in the day. I'm so sad I never got to see this era of blink in person. Easily my favorite blink era. As for the poll choices, 2012 was pretty cool with those acoustic songs and deeper cuts. I think I'll vote that one. Untitled anniversary show is basically my dream show though and I'm kicking myself for not traveling to CA to catch one of those shows. I thought it was too irresponsible to travel that far and spend that much money on a concert. I've since traveled to LA for two shows and it makes me sad that I didn't do it for one of the Untitled shows too! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember like waiting around for that AOL session (lol) and being a bit underwhelmed by it. It's abysmal now with Matt just being honest. Travis drum solo getting stale too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That AOL sessions sounded pretty bad. Has anyone here watched the Guitar Center Sessions that are on YouTube? I’m sure there are a ton more bands featured on it, but recently I was watching 311, New Found Glory, and Social Distortion on there and they all sound amazing live. If anyone else is familiar with that platform, curious as to what you think blink (with Tom) would have sounded like on there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neal Posted January 26, 2020 Report Share Posted January 26, 2020 2004 setlist was incredible, for a blink fan. I talked to other musicians that attended these shows and thought they were awful which i get. The guys where so fuxking high and looking back, the tension was tangible. That vibe will never be replicated. And i learned so much from that about music in general, that for me this will always be peak blink. Not from a technical standpoint, but if you were into the band back then, what you got was really something terrible and beautiful at the same time. I love that. Now setlist speaking, they were top game as well with the medley and all of that. But just judging wich setlist i'd want to see: the set they played in the 201x' with the acoustic set thrown in. That was awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom18222 Posted January 26, 2020 Report Share Posted January 26, 2020 anything after toypaj i dont think they ever had good setlists, pretty much refused to play anything pre EOTS except for dammit and carousel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
