When We Were Young Festival (Las Vegas) Tour • Page 218

Panic isn't billed above blink, they are co-headliners and billed at the exact same level

 

Panic is absolutely billed above blink because they are playing last. They're on the same line on the poster and are technically co-headlining, but the set time is the most important thing.

 

I'm not going to explain poster billing and festivals to anyone here

 

I mean if you think Green Day didn't negotiate to be billed over blink (AND get more time than them) when they played together in 2023....

 

Panic was also touring on what was by far their worst and least popular album. They've had some bigger hits over the past few album releases than blink has, including the collab with Taylor Swift. And blink is touring a ton and has already played the festival.

 

They’re billed above blink in the sense that their placement on the posters indicates they are closing the festival and playing after blink. Technically co-headliners in terms of “font size on the poster” but the point here stands - them playing last over blink is definitely interesting.

 

Gives me time to leave then if they play after blink lol

 

It isn't so much the reunion itself, but performing their biggest album on the 20th anniversary in his hometown that's the draw.

 

Yeah especially since they never play anything off that album it’s a much bigger deal than blink doing their standard greatest hits set

 

I like panic but honestly it doesn't feel like such a draw in comparison to basically the pop punk disaster part 2 and mcr playing the black parade with fall out boy. Blink 182 is back full time so there is no need to go to las vegas to see them

 

I didnt realized that besides I Write Sins, they stopped playing most of the songs form the album aroun 2011 with a few exceptions that were played up to 2016/2017. Dang, almost 10 years with no songs live from that album.

 

I had already resolved to stay home, so I'm gonna need you both to stop telling me it's worth it to see P!ATD live for the first time ever (been a fan since the demos before the debut album).

 

I want WWWY to do a lineup that includes a bunch of the old PureVolume/MySpace bands like
Just Surrender, Jamison Parker, Amber Pacific, Letter Kills, Matchbook Romance, Bottom Line, 1997, Count the Stars, The Morning Of, Rookie of the Year, Yesterdays Rising, Sing It Loud, Dead Poetic, etc etc etc etc
