Blink Setlist

[RichieParf]

Anyone care to take a guess at Blink's setlist? I'm assuming they'll throw in a couple of new ones and obviously there are some obvious ones. What do we think?

[Sparticus]

setlist.fm has their reunion dates listed. It's well and truly a greatest hits show, 2-3 tracks from pre-enema, then an abundance of tracks from enema, take off and self titled (was quite suprised they're playing a lot from the last album, I for one really liked it though).

dumpweed first would be fantastic. plus i would love it if they played adams song, i doubt it though.

dont think they do anymore? i could of sworn the guy its about died but that might be making stuff up!

[r3c3ssmunk3y]

I thought the whole song was about a guy who committed suicide? If I'm wrong, then do tell!

What's My Age Again

All The Small Things

The Rock Show

Most people don't know any of their other songs (so much for being legends) so they could put any old shit in their set and get away with it; so long as they put those 3 songs in.

I don't want lists, I don't want names of songs I don't know, I don't want people saying "I know loads of people who..." blah, blah, blah - those 3 songs are probably their most popular and so they're probably the only ones ordinary Joe Public will know, and let's face it, there are going to be a lot of Joe Publics at Reading/Leeds.

Seriously, they could play those 3 songs on repeat and maybe 100 or 200 would notice.

For all everyones saying there's just gonna be a lot of casual fans there, Blink were the band that a huge portion of the festival goer's wanted as headliners since the reform, so I see this year being a fairly pop/punk crowd, so theres gonna be a LOT of Blink fans. Especially with the saturday(leeds) day tickets selling so much faster for blink alone. So chances are most people will know most stuff.

Giving a list of songs I've never heard before only serves to prove my point.

[andyblanch]

would hope dammit makes an appearance on the set list

[Vieuphoria]

haha this is very wrong, i know you dont want any lists but feel i need to explain my point:

I miss you

First Date

Dumpweed

There all extremely weel known, but in any case you could say that most people only know 3 arcade fire songs:

Wake Up

No Cars Go

Keep the car running

Or Guns n Roses:

Sweet child o mine

Paradise City

Welcome to the jungle

Its a point you could make about nearly everyband

[pink_triangle]

I would agree with him actually.

But i would add Down (i think its called Down anyway?) and I Miss You. Other than that i'd say he had it spot on.

[kev1664]

That song that sounds the same as all the other songs?

[Vieuphoria]

Yeah I agree with you about those 5, down didnt seem to get as much airplay as the other. Its probably one of those songs you know but forget about untill they play it. Thats probably 20 minutes of songs I know in 90 minutes, yikes! I honestly have never heard of dumpweed, was it a single??

[wghennessy]

If you haven't heard of Dumpweed GTFO of this thread. Everything you say is bullshit.

[Ice Fatality]

Seriously... anyone that says they haven't heard 'I Miss You' is just wrong. Seriously, I'd say it's more well known than ATST.

[pink_triangle]

Its well known but theres no doubt about it that when most people think of blink 182 they think of all the small things.

[ap3311]

I don't think Dumpweed is one of their really well known ones tbh, it's not on their Greatest Hits after all. Three songs is ridiculous though, most people will definitely know All The Small Things, What's My Age Again?, The Rock Show, First Date, Stay Together For The Kids, I Miss You and Dammit. Then you've got Josie, M+M's, Feeling This etc... which most casual fans will probably know as well.

Personally I hope we get the above plus Anthem 2, Man Overboard, Online Songs, Carousel, Stockholm Syndrome, Going Away to College, Story of a Lonely Guy, Down, Roller Coaster, Mutt and Everytime I Look For You. I know they've meant to have grown up a bit but I really hope they put in a few joke songs as well. It just wouldn't feel like a Blink performance if we didn't get The Country Song/Family Reunion/Blow Job etc. It's not like they go on very long lol.

Seems my point about fans feeling compelled to give lists of songs was correct.

At the end of the day, I've never heard of any of these songs. I don't speak for the vast majority of people but I can imagine there are a lot of people who are in the same position as me:

"...play All The Small Things"

- Here's a new song we've called Cock and Penis Jokes. Hope you like it.

"ALL THE SMALL THINGS"

- *starts playing song*

"What the f**k are you doing? ALL THE SMALL THINGS!"

Then it becomes like this:
