When We Were Young Festival (Las Vegas) Tour • Page 169

I feel like I’m the only one hyped for that album play. If I were going, that one would be a top set for me

 

I've never listened to any Nada Surf album in full & you 2 have persuaded me to finally do so

 

We're at the halfway point between these going on sale & the fest weekend, & the 2nd day never sold out. I believe the other 2 sold out pretty much right away? I'd love to have a less crowded day, but I imagine they'll drop the price to sell it out

 

Following up on this to be sure that you actually do it.

 

I'm not sure how you could go any bigger than the first two years. I mean 2023 alone had a double headliner of Green Day and Blink 182 with a stacked undercard. Only eventual thing to do is to reunite Panic At The Disco.

 

and Brand New

 

Not the heavy hitters,but I did!! I’ll go back & listen to the fan favs soon

Echoing my earlier posts,but for me, it being 99% album plays is so much bigger than the first 2 years. Clearly I’m not everyone & I’m in the minority (4.5 months & it still hasn’t sold out) but I’d much rather see full albums than what is essentially an Emo Nite playlist. I’ve seen almost 60 albums in full & this is gonna get me near 75,I’m beyond excited

 

Brand New will likely reunite at Riot and then do a full US tour. Now sure how much demand they will have for a Vegas fest.

 

I would have much more interest in "full album" plays if I got to pick the album hahahaha. Honestly I have already seen at least 5 of these bands play these albums in full

 

I'm sure the WWWY has already tried to get them and been turned down.

 

I just need JamisonParker to do an anniversary tour for Sleepwalker next year, or at least WWWY.

 

same. which is why i'm not clawing my way to get to vegas.

 

Totally agree, several of them aren't my choice in albums but I'll take it. Just checked my spreadsheet, I've seen 14 of what's being played at this, should help make set conflicts easier I hope

 

I feel like full album plays are good for hardcore fans but can't think of many albums that can really keep the attention of a 60k crowd played in full. Dookie, American Idiot, Enema Of The State, Tell All Your Friends, The Black PArade, A Fever You Can't Sweat Out, Riot are really the only ones that I think could do well.

 

Would love for them to announce FOB doing different albums each day or even just unique setlists. Feel the latter is possible considering they covered almost their discography on their recent runs.

Could see them ending up doing a full album over the two nights if they did do the latter.

Might help shift some extra tickets

Second one never sold out

 

Album plays sold me on this but I get that most people aren’t big album listeners. I went to Just Like Heaven the other day and heard so many people complaining about Death Cab’s setlist when it was just Transatlanticism like they’ve been doing for the last year lol

 

Yeah it didn’t really look like a lot of people were into Death Cab’s set. I was because I love that album, but I kind of saw their set and PS’s set as like an “encore” show to their tour in the fall. They played three sold-out shows at the bowl and I thought there still would’ve been hype for it… But I guess not

 

I had fun at the Death Cab set, which I knew was going to be Transatlanticism in full so I wasn't surprised, but I personally would have enjoyed a greatest hits way more, even though that is my favorite album of theirs. Postal Service way outshined them in my opinion.

 

It would’ve been cool if they had a full hour so they could’ve added some other songs, but I understand why this wasn’t the case. Time crunch for the fest and for the band, keeping the continuity of the tour

 

Yes very relevant

 

Wrong thread? Lol

 

Green Day has been touring nonstop for 30 years. Blink was in the middle of a world tour. MCR was touring, hell they’re doing it again and are still a major draw. Brand New would definitely move the needle

 

Album plays do nothing for me, especially if some are the wrong album choice. Just keep it dummy stacked with good amenities and I'll go. Here's to 2025
