I didn't like them much.

Until tonight.

I'm.. 'buying'.. their discography. Sugarcult's too.

Mexican Waves at gigs = totally awesome. All the tiered seaters started a mexican wave, we all kept it going for a good amount of time.

I even liked Tom's voice, when it could be heard. At times, he was a little too quiet.

Hey now!

There's a good story behind that, based at the train station, not the gig. :P

Although, damn, I was in Heaven. Seriously. I didn't know which way too look. So, I looked every way.

I can't stand their post BoxCarRacer style of music. Go back to the punk you sissies! Although the drummer is quite awesome.

I like BCR, too. :(

A) blink-182- weren't and are not punk.

B) The only album that even touches their new record was Dude Ranch. Their older stuff, circa Flyswatter, Buddha, Cheshire Cat was downwright awful in recording and they hadn't hit their stride. Enema of the State and Take Off Your Pants and Jacket is far too watered down. They are a band emulating what blink-182- really and truly is. Dude Ranch and their latest records are their best.

C) I'd take depth over, "It's Christmas Eve and I've only wrapped two fucking presents. And I hate your guts, and I'll never talk to you again." or... "I want to fuck a dog in the ass". Potty-mouth humor is not funny and anyone who likes blink-182- because of that are complete and utter retards.

And if you think I am biased because I am not a blink-182- fan, it is quite the opposite. I love blink-182-, I've seen them live twice and own all of their albums. But the majority of their fans are idiots.

More grown up than they used to be.

Still a few jokes, though.

Very good, though.

And yeah, I was moaning about Death Cab For Cutie, who were rumoured to be supporting.

Mark is also awesome on drums. He gave us a drum solo at the end. Travis is, of course, better.

Blink 182 has always been one of my guilty pleasures (I'm kinda surprised PunkRockPete liked them... I thought he was going to bash them completely) but to say they are of the best groups ever, or even the best Punk group ever it's an exaggeration.

I own about 4 of Blink 182, and while I liked some songs... most of the reason was that I liked them when I was about 13-14, when saying "poo" is cool and funny. I stopped hearing them when I turned 15 because, quite frankly I got bored.

Then, on 2003 Christmas, a friend of mine gave me the Blink 182 self-titles album (The newest one) and I was surprised on how much they grew up, and some songs totally own all of their old songs together (I used to love "I miss you" but it turned mainstream, and as soon as every fucking kid was singing the lyric... it kinda killed the passion). The song "All of this" with Roberth Smith is the BEST.BLINK182.SONG.EVER and has a great feel to it.

Blink182 are ok, but 3 years after the group breaks apart, they are going to be forgotten.

So Summers, how long was the set they played? And did they bust out Carousel? (Favourite Blink song).

I was hoping the Kinisins (Is that right?) would surprise me and be good but that obviously isn't going to be the case. Could be worse though, we could have gotten Death Cab for Cutie.

I found out in college that Death Cab weren't there, got so happy. Then, some people around me said they liked them. So I argued with them about how shite they were,

Kinisin or something, yeah. Fucking sucked.

The set was, I think:

01-feeling this

02-easy taget

03-whats my age again

04-violence (excerpt)

05-happy holidays you bastard

06-rock show

07-obvious

08-i miss you

09-asthenia

10-dysentary gary

11-all of this

12-first date

13-go

14-stay together for the kids

15-medley

16-reckless abandon

17-all the small things

18-down and encore

19-stockholm syndrome

20-dammit

Damn, if i was there I would've wanted them to play some older stuff, the things in bold are what i'd like to hear live, although I like it all.

Who's voice substituted in All Of This?
