Taking Back Sunday Band • Page 531

Ticketmaster/LN also using the same photo

 

Yeah and the rocksound announcement for this has just the three of them.

Cutting them some slack on the website being slow to update etc just knowing their management is LA based

 

How funny is it gonna be in 2030 when Taking Back Sunday is just Fred?

 

what if tbs is the friends we made (and lost and remade) along the way

 

What if Taking Back Sunday took Sunday, lost Sunday, but then took it back again? It would be Story Of The Year.

 

This thread is the gift that keeps on giving.

 

I mean, if they play One Eighty By Summer, I’ll still see them live.

 

Ughhhh. The OR date is at McMenamin's Edgefield, which is an amphitheater. I saw them open for Third Eye Blind there a few years back and waited in line for merch while they played, cause they sounded terrible. In hindsight, i don't even know why i purchased their tour shirt there. TEB made up for it, but yeah definitely skipping this since it's outdoors.

 

Mitch Register (their touring drummer) reposted the tour announcement so I assume that means he’ll be continuing with them for the foreseeable future

 

Is he a noticeably different drummer than Mark? I haven't heard any recent performances

 

Well he doesn’t constantly look pissed behind the drum kit like Mark so there’s that. I like his style, he really seems to enjoy playing with them.

 

For a start his name has one more letter than Mark and the remaining members, so that’s already a significant change

 

He was a really solid drummer when I saw them last summer

 

I think he did a fairly good job if he had to learn all those songs in a short amount of time (plus the entirety of TAYF and then the slightly deeper cuts he learned for the holiday shows). Hard to compare somebody who helped write the songs and has been playing them for 25 years to a guy who probably had a couple weeks notice to learn a whole setlist worth of them.

 

Seems to be more of a country musician

 

Mark is a great player. Just always hits hard as hell and gave them a real backbone. No opinions on the temp guy.

 

His name, Mitch Register, feels like a country name too. I won’t elaborate.

 

Just spun 152 for the first time in a couple months, and, yeah, it's real good. Still bummed it's only 31 mins!

 

Personally think the length is perfect and that attributes to how great it is. Absolutely no fluff or filler.

 

That's a good way of framing it. I just want more! Haha

 

Or just Shaun playing the bass lines of every song by himself

 

Why do I picture him starting a show with Liar's intro, waiting for the rest of the band to hop on stage... except no one else does and he ends up stuck on a loop

 

I'm curious how they'll be spending the time from their last show in mid-December to this tour in mid-August. Eight months is kind of an unusually long amount of empty space for this band, with the exception of the Covid years. They only have a few one-off shows during this time. Wonder if they'll start working on the next batch of songs (with Fred!?!?).

 

They’re going to sit and listen to Mark’s new solo album, learn it and then tour the album front to back.

 

I think @dylan is Mark's burner account btw
