Panic At The Disco arent too happy about their own I Write Sins Not Tragedies. Which is baffling to me but whatever.

Playing the same songs over and over again gets boring

I wish I had seen them in 2007-2008 when I was in college and the ticket was $10 for students

Back then I saw everybody who was big at the time and paramore was always one of the openers. Seen them open for fall out boy multiple times, all American rejects, taking back Sunday, hellogoodbye.. maybe others.

they were always just kinda.. not as good as the headliners.

Unfortunately most of the audience doesn't give a shit about your new work. Especially if you haven't really been hugely popular as a band for years.

You can easily notice this at most concerts. Watch the general audience mood/reaction to newer songs versus their reaction to popular hits.

Noticing that reaction is part of why some bands eventually sour on their older work. They can feel annoyed that the audience only really cares about their older work, that they wrote when they were essentially different people who saw the world differently, and which they grew tired of long ago. But the audience paid to see your hits, so if you don't play them, they can sour on you pretty quickly as well.

At the extreme end, you get stuff like the time Sting from the Police indulged in his own weird musical tastes and did a concert where he mostly performed on the lute, and you could tell most of the audience was just regretting wasting the money they spent on the ticket. They were basically dead silent until he finally did an actual song from the Police and the audience suddenly revived a bit. There used to be an audio clip of that out there somewhere.

Im sure Akira Toriyama wanted to draw something other than angry, buff dudes that are constantly fighting buff aliens all the time. But he was grateful to what made him great.

Yeah, that's when he takes a break and does the art for Dragon Quest instead.

Been quite a while since hearing about afi, think Ill have to see how their newer stuff is now that I can just stream it!

Uses the title of a The Killers song as their festival name.
Doesn't have The Killers.

That said, I live here so I'm deciding if I want to go or not. Won't need a hotel or anything. No travel expenses either. Would just be the tickets but they're $200+.

True. It's "when you were young"
Not a huge difference.

Its not.. but its enough

the killers are also from Vegas so they would fit well, but Theyre not there.

Im seeing motion city soundtrack next month and Im so fuckin excited. I was supposed to see them like 6 years ago when they were doing their farewell tour, I had tickets and everything, and then at the last minute my girlfriend at the time didnt want to go, and it was her birthday so we didnt go.

I never really let that go.

So now Im super excited theyre doing this tour.
