Mutt!! Great song

[kemosabe]

im no big blink fan but there is songs i like (almost entirely from Enigma of the state tbh) So i thought i would check out there set list as you never know...

However i was disappointed to see that at festivals they no longer play Adams Song (which is my favorite by them by a long way)

Any idea why? as i would think it would be a great festival song ...

ENEMA OF THE STATE! ENEMA!

During their 2009 summer tour, after the passing

of DJ AM, whose real name is Adam Goldstein, Blink-182 stopped playing "Adam's Song" for the remainder of the tour and have not played it live since. In 2012 Hoppus stated that the song may be "permanently retired" from their setlist because of the history attached to it.

Also the kid who commited suicide with it on repeat, it's got a lot of negative history

ah makes sense... i know the history of the song (the actual note is one of the most bitter and sad things i have ever read) but i didn't realise it was retired

But I love Adams song...

ugh I still just can't believe this shitty band is taking up a headline spot...

oh well i'l be elsewhere

This thread was created so that talk of blink didn't clog up the other threads where the haters are. There's not really any need to come on here and spread your negativity

... why are you in the Blink thread then?

Oh... well It appeared to me this was a thread discussing the booking of blink, I didn't read anywhere this was the "be nice to blink" thread.

it was a completely irrelevant post though, it had no meaning or genuine "discussion" to it, other than reigniting the discussion that you are indeed an idiot

[Gucci Piggy]

Can we move Matt42 to the 'Jokes and other stupid stuff' section?

[Babyquack]

For some reason I could have sworn they played Adam's song at Brixton in 2012 but looking at setlist.fm they didn't, for reasons you've all already mentioned.

I think if they played it, it wouldn't be the same. I'd rather it just stayed out tbh.

Pretty much sums it up

[Andre91]

I'm hoping for some more Enema Of The State tracks. Going Away To College, Aliens Exist, Dysentery Gary and Mutt would be incredible.

[kemosabe]

My other favorite from that album that they dont play is Party Song

dont think i will be watching them but i think alot of people will be (everyone else i know loves them)

Well now you know, so we would be most appreciative if, from now on, you could abide by the thread rules when making any future posts

And I quote:

Rather than upsetting most posters in the lineup thread maybe it would be a good idea to talk about anything blink related in here.

not trying to take sides here but nowhere are there thread rules, matt has an opinion of that they are a shitty band. so what? let him have his opinion and don't hate on him for putting it in the relevant thread - in the OP does it not say to post about blink here instead?

personally blink wouldn't have been my choice for headliner but I can understand why people would enjoy them being booked.

gaters gonna gate.

No problem with him voicing an opinion but it

was more like a school boy insult. I hate blink na na na na. Just didn't seem any point at all to it and came across like he was just trying to annoy people. We all already know that he doesn't like blink as he has pointed it out on numerous occasions. So what did his input offer to the discussion?

I'm not that cynical and like to give people a chance. Okay a few chances? A lot of chances? Millions of chances? Okay I like to give people an infinite amount of chances regardless of their past offending.

*this does not count when their offences are illegal

*this does not apply to Ian Watkins

Do we reckon blinks new stuff will get a decent amount of radio play? Radio1 seem to decide when they're gonna back a band and headlining R&L seems like a good reason to.
