Will always be amazed at the success this guys achieved. Not saying it’s not deserved, but damn what a road this band has had.
It's insane to me that they're a) still playing arenas and b) still a band when it's basically just Brendon at this point. I don't think anyone could have imagined that 15 years later, P!ATD would still be around while bands like Yellowcard and MCR wouldn't be.
Good for them...they were able to transition from a rock influenced band into a full blown Top 40 pop act and actually grow in popularity. The new singles have bombed at radio but they'll be able to draw arena crowds off the nostalgia factor.
I don't think they need radio. Spotify Only: High Hopes-10 million streams Say Amen- 33 million streams
I'm assuming they played smaller venues late 2000's/early 2010's, right? Such a crazy resurgence either way.
"Say Amen" is currently #4 on the Alternative radio charts. Hit #5 on the Hot Rock charts, and was "their highest entry on the Billboard Hot 100in three years, as the act's latest single, "Say Amen (Saturday Night)," debuts at No. 60 (on the chart dated April 7). [...] "Amen" concurrently charges 12-5 in its second week on the Hot Rock Songs chart, earning the act its third top five hit, following "Hallelujah" (No. 3 peak) and "Emperor's New Clothes" (No. 5). The song also surges 36-21 on the Alternative Songs airplay chart and 40-27 on the all-rock-genre Rock Airplay survey." So, it's also doing pretty good on radio.
"Say Amen" is doing just fine on alt radio. Pretty mind-blowing move to announce a second leg before the first one even starts. Money in the BANK.
They were doing smaller arenas around Pretty. Odd., then back to HOBs/big theaters around Vices & Virtues. Too Weird took them up to smaller sheds, and now they're full-blown arenas with the last two albums.
They were playing sheds? Also loving that big 3 (Paramore, FOB and P!ATD) are finding continued and staggering success with their new material.
