Both

It rotates every 3-4 songs or so

 

Technically the stage itself doesn't rotate. Instead their mic stands/pedals orbit around the edge of the stage on some sort of carousell/rail.

While Tom & Mark are free to move around the stage as they please, all 3 members gear will be facing the same direction for the duration of any given song.

 

Also, damn no medley tonight

 

I’m trying to determine where to sit for the Lexington show. It’ll be side stage but not sure which side to pick.

 

Is that confirmed or just based on setlist.fm? They can’t just do that once.

Edit: looks like they did play it

 

Oop nevermind then

 

Would love to see Josie get added back to at least the rotating spot. Or maybe drop Always for it. Anthem 3 into Josie would be quite awesome.

 

Flip around between Always, Josie, and Going Away To College. That would be awesome. Maybe Apple Shampoo, but that’s wishful thinking.

 

Makes me think of how Tom said the early AVA stuff he had envisioned to be the next Blink record… if things had happened to go that way.

Getting that old WDNTW sound from his guitar a bit.

 

This sounds dreadful https://www.reddit.com/r/Blink182/s/9pTJ5m7RHc

 

Not surprising at all

 

Somehow I don’t really feel bad for someone who would pay $1000 to meet Travis and find it slightly funny if they got cheated out of the advertised experience. That’s basically paying the stupid tax for paying that much to meet a celebrity lol

 

Yeah I’m fine with people spending their money on whatever they want but meet and greets are dumb imo

 

You can meet him pretty easily when he’s not on tour at his restaurant. It’ll cost less than $1,000 to get a plane ticket and eat at the restaurant. Just do that. Also he goes out in the crowd with a hoodie and sunglasses to watch the opener on tour. If you’re on the floor you can meet him fairly easy.

 

Someone in that Reddit thread said they’re on a payment plan for this meet and greet. Depressing!

 

Only time I did a VIP add on was for Armor for Sleep. For an extra $80 I got a signed vinyl, a signed poster, meet & greet, and watched the soundcheck. Definitely seemed worth the value.

To pay more than 12x that amount to only get a fraction of that and with only one band member….i can’t believe anyone would pay for that

 

For $50-100 (I don’t remember) bucks I got to hang out and play drums with Strung Out during soundcheck. Came with a signed poster and some other swag. Insanely fun and memorable experience.

 

Did VIP for TBS this August cause it felt super worth it. Only time I've even paid over a hundred for a ticket lol

 

Never paid for VIP / meet and greet, probably never will.

 

I’ve done VIP a couple times and am doing it a few times this year. My experiences have always been very positive, memorable, and felt worth the price. I’m sure it varies from band to band.

 

Only time I paid for M&G was for Matt Nathanson years ago and I proposed to my now-wife during it. Worth it.

 

Wait, did Taker confuse Blink for Weezer?

 

all the small things

 

Met Travis after a Transplant concert and had a one on one conversation with him for about 5 mins. It was shortly before DED came out. $0

Only one I had to pay to meet was Tom. Got my big bunny and my untitled vinyl signed, though, so that was a must.
