New Found Glory Band • Page 140

Last night they sounded great. Also i loved that it ended at 10 pm. Normalize ending shows at 10 so i can get to bed at a reasonable time lolz

 

A which 3 songs do the extra VIP get to be a part of? Do they include Intro as a song ?

 

Constant Static
Radio Adelaide
Whiskey Rose

They do "Intro" twice in the real show – at the start and at the end.

 

Haha I meant the people who paid extra to be side stage.

 

Unbelievable crowd in Asbury tonight. They said they sold 4k tickets, that’s gotta be biggest of the tour.

Added Sincerely Me tonight!! Overall, great night

 

Can confirm that it’s through Truth Of My Youth as we were told 3 and a half songs for tonight haha

 

Saw Chad was back last night! What a great sign

 

Was not there tonight though.

 

yeah he said he drove in for ohio cause it was close to where he lives

 

Forgot to post my videos from Cleveland.

Here is At Least I’m Known For Something. You can find Your Biggest Mistake, I’d Kill To Fall Asleep, Part of Your World, Hold my Hand, Sincerely Me, and Intro on my channel.

 

Also, here’s some of This Disaster from the side stage view.

 

I wonder what is next for these guys. I think they’ve hinted at some new material next year but not sure.

Late in their career but would love to see these guys playing bigger venues like on the All American Rejects tour last year. Potential opener for Turnstile in 2025? Role player in a bigger pop/punk tour?

 

Probably should do a covers-only tour, opening and closing with Kiss Me.

 

FWIW, our AAR show sold like shit. And those guys had a #1 song (Gives You Hell) and Dirty Little Secret and Move Along, plus everything else on MA and their self titled that people love.

I would truly love to see them headlining or even supporting bigger shows. The very first show I ever saw on my own as a kid was the TOYPAJ tour with them and a little band opening called the Alkaline Trio. That was a formative memory for me.

 

I remember seeing them when Turnstile was the opener.

 

With Chads situation, I think we’ll be lucky to see them in any capacity going forwards. New music or legacy act.

 

This sounds dramatic.

I've got tickets to see them next May.

 

I am confident they’ll keep touring and Chad will be out when he is able to.

 

I don’t think we will see massive or multiple tours in a year until Chad is close to cancer-free.

You can see that every booking since 2022 is with Chad’s current diagnosis in mind. At best he would have been able to do each leg of the Catalyst 20 tour but that didn’t happen.

I don’t think it’s out of the question for him to do one or two of the shows in Chicago or even be able to do the second leg. Is it likely? Probably not.

Even though I have tix for October and iffy on attending I’d rather him get healthy and bring the joy to the fans in the UK who have gone years without seeing the band live.

 

Exactly the point I was trying to make. I’m thinking small runs and one offs are all they can realistically plan. Knowing cancer battles first hand he still has a long road ahead of him.

 

Yep.

 

Swiss Army Bromance - Dashboard Confessional / New Found Glory 7" Spli

Figured I’d add this here too - the old Dashboard/NFG cover split from their cancelled tour is $7 on the Dashboard store (dark green variant).

 

You can really tell the toll it’s taken on his body in his most recent videos

 

I was really shocked to see the physical change - he’d always been kinda bigger but he’s lost a bunch of weight and muscle tone. The back brace scared the hell out of me when I saw him in the stage videos.

 

Chemo isn’t fun. Cancer sucks.
