What's that have to do with anything? I've seen tons of videos, they are way better yes? Those particular songs are boring live to me. (IMO)

I don’t care for the song that much and would have axed it from the setlist before going for sure. It was one of the best live songs they had, went perfect with the production. Now I think the song is a banger, because it was so good on this tour 1

Because I really only follow blink, and it seems like the production on every album from Neighborhoods to now gets eviscerated by certain people, which I find very strange because none of the last four albums really seem to A. Have egregiously bad production or B. Have all that similar production. Idk, maybe I’m not as critical about art as other people are in general, but it feels like pRoDuCtiOn in music is the same as wRiTiNg in movies/tv shows; just a cheap catch-all cop out people use to endlessly shit on something instead of engaging with it for what it is. Seems like some people either prefer to be negative or are so caught up in what they want something to be that they refuse to even give themselves the opportunity to enjoy what it actually is. Of course production is significant because it's the "sound" of the record.

So I’m just saying it’s possible if you went you could have changed your mind too. You’re judging based off of old tours. Watching on YouTube doesn’t really count or do it Justice 3
2point5 Posted September 22, 2023 Posted September 22, 2023 This almost calls for an 'Ultimate Setlist' thread where we pick our dream setlist of like 20 songs. But I'm too lazy to do it myself. 1 1
allsystemsgo Posted September 22, 2023 Posted September 22, 2023 Down and STFTK are boring drop those. 1 1

Older songs and brand new songs would be cool. I've been considering Violence, Always, Down, and UAN as huge setlist snoozers for awhile now. I like them on the albums but they just don't bring anything to the table in the live set. (IMO) I misunderstood this post and was gonna crab it, but I agree wholehardedly with this. 1

STFTK sounded great this tour tho so keep it. The outro to down they do, especially Travis, is really cool but I supposed Travis could add some cool drum outro to a different song

I've never heard any fanfare around it like Violence, Stockholm, Always, etc. I like it, but even though it was a late single it's always just felt like a filler track to me. 5
Jared Campbell Posted September 22, 2023 Posted September 22, 2023 I would like to make peace with anyone at odds with me here. I’ve got bigger fish to fry now He really trying to bring up Chad Smith ??? 4 1

Easily the weakest track on the album.

Stockholm or Here's your Letter would be awesome. I'd even take obvious. That was a single right?
2point5 Posted September 22, 2023 Posted September 22, 2023 I prefer the single version of Down to the album version. Never liked the way it went straight into The Fallen Interlude.

Edited September 22, 2023 by allsystemsgo Shit that's not a Starcaster. Oops. 1 1

Hey hey now, don’t forget about the little stinkers such as I Miss You, Stockholm Syndrome, Go, Easy Target, All of This, and I’m Lost Without You. Honestly I gotta say All of this or I’m Lost Without You are the weakest.

Classic Leo. Lol dude, whatever era Tom is in, is what he wears. Go check out the neighborhood videos, he’s wearing the same beanies and short brim hats Tom would wear. I have no problem picking on this guy since he’s a blatant racist 3

Fun, Catchy Pop-Punk Posted September 22, 2023 Posted September 22, 2023 I imagine Tom discovering Leo was a lot like when Homer encounters Mr. Sparkle on the Simpsons. 1 2
