This.
I literally just bought the SLC poster, and the pin and sticker packs.

 

Yea all the designs I've seen are garbage. I kinda like the grey shirt, but not worth $45 if the quality or sizing is crap. Also my thoughts on the hat too. Will certainly try to grab a poster to add to my collection. Already own all blink LPs on vinyl.

 

I was the only guy in my section that did the “no one gave a fuck that you died” lyric and it was awkward lol

 

Also Italia posted that thing about everyone wearing the target untitled shirt at the show and it was SO ACCURATE. Must have seen 200 people in that pseudo bootleg at the show. So funny. Kind of really want one ironically. We happened to be in Denver the week the Eras tour went through and I was so tempted to get a shitty bootleg. Would have scooped something for blink if I saw a bootleg stand. I have an abiding love for bootleg merch.

 

I was in a suite with my two bosses, and the side-stare afterward was crazy. lol.

 

RE: Merch
Wait for it to go on sale after the tour is over. They'll likely throw it online at some point.

 

How many posters have they been printing per show?

 

They didn't put anything from the last tour up, so not sure about that

 

400

 

I could've sworn I got the keychain and hat from the tour online and saw tour shirts up. Might've just been ebay, then.

 

I got the grey shirt and the one with the 80's metal design on it. They're definitely using a better distributor now, as the shirts are softer. Thought my L fit just fine. Really only cared for the grey tee and likely turning the 80's one into an open-side tank top.

 

Carousel has always been my favorite song ever.

But I think Anthem Part III is taking that spot now.

 

They really are both perfect songs.
Always insane to me that Carousel was the first song they ever wrote, and it's that much of a masterpiece.
The first song I ever wrote sucks ass. lol.

 

Carousel was the first song I ever taught myself on guitar using tabs haha.

 

I think mine was Dammit, but Carousel wasn't far behind, and I still can't play it very good.

 

Speaking of difficult blink songs to play that no one really talks about….

M&M’s is pretty tricky haha. Which is wild bc it’s such an old song!

 

I'm tellin ya.. I don't think I've ever played that one perfectly. haha. I swear the older you get in the discography the more complicated the guitar parts are. haha.

 

Tom went hard on Cheshire Cat. The riffs on Touchdown Boy are gnarly

 

Yes!
And I always think it's crazy how similar the clean bridge riff in Ben Wah Balls sounds to the Stay Together intro.

 

I know this has been asked before but anyone have set times available for the shows? I want to make sure to get there in time, nervous about traffic for Citi Field.

 

7-7:30 | opener
7:45-8:30 | Pierce the Veil
9-10:30 | blink-182

 

Maybe they'll spend these few days off rehearsing Turpentine for the baseball fields, ya know?? Pumped the Fenway show is a week away

 

Late to the discussion here, but "Anthem Pt. 3" and "Turpentine" are two songs where I definitely said "Damn, I didn't know Tom had that in him" whenever I heard them for the first time. All-time great additions to the blink catalog.

 

Would love to get a Blink Wave debut before this tour is over. At some point Terrified would crush live but with the BCR song in the set it is unlikely. It’s just so good.
