Alkaline Trio - Blood, Hair and Eyeballs (January 26, 2024) • Page 46

Now that’s a setlist!!

 

Oh man absolutely perfect.

 

That’s about as close to ideal for a band of their depth and a killer new record to promote as I can think of.

 

As far as older stuff goes, I'm glad they're leaning more into the Infirmary/Mourning/Crimson records for the setlist cuz those are my three favorite albums by them

 

Someone filmed the whole set!! Atom did great, but as a drummer myself, I'm just thinking "Man, Derek was such a machine", and some of the more intricate parts Derek played are lacking. Now Atom is doing a better job than Jarrod did back in 2018, but man, Derek left huge shoes to fill.

 

Man Hot For Preacher is a killer opener

 

I feel like Atoms style is perfect on the old stuff.

 

For sure, most of the songs he excels at, but Mr. Chainsaw and Take Lots with Alcohol sounded lacking a bit or like he was dragging a bit. I know Mike Felumlee played on those originally but Mike wrote tricky parts for those Infirmary tracks. Atom is still doing great, but I guess I'm just being too critical lol

 

Matt kinda forgot when to come in on Break and Dan kinda saved him haha.

 

No warbrain is lame

 

Looks like same set night 2

 

it’s missing that and a MSIT song.

 

I’d die if they played young lovers

 

I know they're basic picks but I'm bummed at no This Could Be Love, Private Eye or especially Sadie, my favorite song by them

 

Merch is so sick. Will likely pick up the A Clockwork Orange shirt in Chicago.

 

Yeah that Clockwork Orange shirt rules.

 

$35 shirts…been awhile since I’ve been to a show, looks like.

 

definitely… those are on the cheaper side haha

 

I’m trying to wrap my head around $85 for a zip up hoodie sheesh

 

Any tour exclusive vinyl? or just black?

 

Welcome to 2024.

 

At least their hoodie is embroidered. There’s a little better quality there than some of the others I’ve seen. But yeah 85 is steep.

 

Venues are robbing bands blind

 

Depressing but yeah :(
