It's like saying that they're not going to Australia/NZ either because they'll be too tired after Europe. Exactly. I think everyone’s minds are kinda stuck in 2004/5 and think Tom is gonna bail cause he needs to be with kids/family. Except it’s 2023, his kids are grown up and he’s got a new wife. Things are different. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Things are different. replace kids/family with TTS scams, movies, and more "UFO" sightings. This band has been a dysfunctional mess with Tom ever since Untitled, I'm just going off of recent evidence. I hope it's different, but I'm not gonna get burned thinking blink-land is a utopia all of a sudden. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elisa Posted March 2 Report Share Posted March 2 I think the only thing we should be mad at right now is just that the fans from South America are not getting a refund and a lot of them won't be able to afford another trip to Brazil, Argentina, Chile etc. next year. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghent Posted March 2 Report Share Posted March 2 Well Travis hasn't flown for a blink show since 2005 so I don't think it's a stretch to be careful with expectations 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monsters of California is already filmed, the UFO shit is out there and getting talked about by media etc. Outside of a new book which would be 99% written by some other bloke, TTS is mainly just a mercy store these days. When the band broke up last time, Mark said Tom was only into it when they were touring and would quickly lose interest once they were back. This time he’s been the captain of the hyper train the whole time. I get being cautious. We’ve all been hurt before but it really does have a different vibe this time around. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do you think she cares that much about Travis being able to do the whole tour though? I'm sure she wants a little touring/concert footage for the show, but that's nothing they can't get in the US. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elisa Posted March 2 Report Share Posted March 2 Because she's 🤘🏻READY 2 MOSH🤘🏻 and she will be in charge of the pit at the blink shows for the next 12 months. 2 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume that since they got married she actually cares about him and wants to see him overcome his fears and do what he loves all over the world. I don’t believe their entire relationship is just a business opportunity poking for footage for the show. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghent Posted March 2 Report Share Posted March 2 I think their relationship is authentic. I also think it will be very hard to make it last long term. But then again, he's got a horse dick so you never know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think their relationship is fake, but maybe they got married in Italy because she really wanted to. I'm sure she cares a lot more about her own wedding than she does about blink's international dates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure she does but I don’t think her only reasons for getting Travis to fly again were for selfish reasons. I know the Kardashians aren’t the shining beacon of selflessness but I do think it would be important to her to support and help her husband overcome his fears and be able to successfully do the things that matter most to him all over the world.

Chewy030 Posted March 2 Report Share Posted March 2 Gotta imagine if they aren't rehearsing again a month from now or even Mid April chances are the US tour gets postponed too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got tickets for what's now supposed to be the first show so i'd like to rebook hotel as soon as possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotNow Posted March 2 Report Share Posted March 2 I assume that the us tour is already postponed internally in their camp and that’s why they’re not really talking. Marks probably really pissed off because he was trying to do everything right (not talking to the press until it was time, setting expectations) so they wouldn’t be a laughing stock meme like the last reunion. And they’re probably delaying the album rollout too even if it’s done 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BanJan Posted March 2 Report Share Posted March 2 5 hours ago, boxelder said: i think while this could’ve been handled better and more clearly, this is the only right outcome at this time. why would they want SA fans first time seeing the band be with a replacement, or travis with a shaker, or travis one handed dumbing down the songs? it just doesn’t make sense. and travis is a huge star, he’s part of the reason many casuals continue to listen and discover the band. if he isn’t there, it doesn’t make sense. given that it’s their first shows since the pandemic (!), and first with tom in nine years, why start it out with a whimper? reschedule, refund, and move on to the next leg of the tour. it’s not like they canceled outright. instead of a triumphant opening the tour, it’ll be a triumphant conclusion in ‘24. you can fault the band for their typical lack of communication or mark’s pithy video, but this was absolutely the right call for them to make. When I said this I got crabbed lol 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean I don't live in South America, so I really don't personally care. But I'm not seeing any genuine indication to suggest they won't make up this leg of the tour next year. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
