2025 Tour - "Missionary Impossible" with Alkaline Trio

[boxelder]

didn't they get rid of mr. tsurt or whatever? i've noticed that blink has really upgraded their merch and branding overall lately. there's a lot of retro-styled shirts available here in the states at places like abercrombie/american eagle/urban outfitters that are waaaaay better than the type of shit they used to make.

Yeah, according to tsurt he "quit" two years ago. Figured that would be a positive change but the merch on tour still fucking blows.

The shirts that come from the third party brands tend to be way better than the band's merch site options. Their site is the only one that pushes the corny rabbit and smiley stuff no one wants anymore

These aren’t official shirts though, right? And why does that say Enema of the State 2000? lol

100% they are. it's like they relegate the hot topic shtick to tour merch and official webstore and everywhere else gets normal, retro-styled stuff.

as for why it says that, it's just a listing of TMT&TS dates from 2000. guess it just makes more sense considering the album cover is on the front of the shirt

Who’s that new rabbit with human arms and legs? 😭 looks more like the green day rabbit than blink’s

[AmonRaStMAGA]

Sell that damn hat with a version of every album. Suck it tsurt

[Ghent]

It just doesn't make sense to still be leaning into the reunion period, which was arguably the worst period in band history, 15 years later. That itself is getting retro at this point. So why not tap into the retro stuff from the glory days instead?

Just like the setlist, we've been having this conversation for way too long. Obvious easy ways to satisfy the fanbase that they ignore.

I used to begrudgingly wear some of that bad merch, but I can't even do that anymore. I'd be embarrassed to wear most of what they have to offer. It's legitimately lame as hell lol

it always seemed "hello fellow kids" to me. 

this is better but I don't think it's even official.

The logo shirt is sick and I’d sear the fuck out of that

Ah, for some reason I saw the KC then Detroit dates and thought it was tour dates from a recent tour since I know the last tour had Detroit right after KC, or like two shows after. Saw that and assumed wrong. Guess they’ve been touring similar logistics for years lol
