Guys, usually I don’t ‘report’ tour dates and stuff, but I think this tour is gonna be one that we remember for a long time.
What if I told u 2 of the biggest rocknroll bands of all time were going on tour?
What if I told u that u could experience some of the most influential music of all time for just the price of 1 ticket?
What if I gave u a clue, and said =w182= ?
Would u be able to guess
MTHRFCKNG WEEZER
AND MTHRFCKNG BLINK 182
are fucking going on tour
Holy fucking shit. I am a 34 year old alt, so I have been around for a while. I know a lot of tweens only know about these bands’ recent stuff, but cmon yall. You can’t deny that this is serious shit. Like if you told me 15 years ago when I was a kid growing up in SoCAl that these bands would be selling out huge amphitheatres, I would have told u 2 shoot more heroine in2 my veins. Who woulda thought these bands would become rock gods? Do you realize how influential these bands are? They revolutionized everything.
This is fucking huge. I was fucking sad that Blink 182 broke up, but I think now they realize that ‘all the small things’ are important, and u should just chill out and be bros.
I’m gonna see all of my favourite songs. Rivers Cuomo is seriously a rock god and a genius. Did u know he went to Harvard? The guy can seriously take a shit, and it’s a masterfully written pop song.
I am seriously fucking pumped yall.
(There is also an opening band called the Fall Out Boys. I think they are a local band or something.)
WE FINALLY DID IT. INDIE MUSIC HAS ARRIVED.
But srsly….what tshirt should I wear to this concert?
a) Blink 182
b) Weezer
b) Angels and Airwaves
d) TRV$ DJAM
e) Boxcar Racer
f) Pete Wentz
g) Ashlee Simpson
h) Ryan Cabrerra
i) Further Seems Forever
j) Saves the Day
k) Red Hot Chili Peppers
l) Switchfoot
m) an Atticus shirt

I got out my primal urge, but now I want to say that, if it weren’t for the George Carlin song, I never would have known what a ‘curse word’ was.
But I also want to say that I never want to remember/reignite the fiery waste of time/energy/aggression/emoness/ that portion of my life was. sort of how I don’t want to ever experience my ‘need’ to write ‘first’ on this blog again.
So tired of sex y’all.

@anony,
i’m just going to call them ’super entrylevel’, as in,’ i am in the suburbs, i have no concept of alt, i am waiting for the internet to be invented’
‘i like these bands because they talk about sex/lesbians/say ‘fuck’ without remorse, and i can buy their CDs at the Wal Mart near my house’
they are decent ‘musicians’ and definitely ‘gateway alt’ because of tattos/nerdspecs/YLLWFVR
they are like the american wannabeatles and subemocorebros but they take the wrong drugs or something

feeling a little disenchanted about this lineup guys.
on the 1 hand, you got weezer, a band that i never particularly liked, but totally earned mad r3espekts.
on the other hand, you got these altbro demigods who command minimal artistic respekts. i guess they are funny and stuff. kinda wanna see weezer tour with maiden.

totes saw BLINK182 back in the day for my fukkin 15th birthday!!! first concert. s0 zany– they played that song about danger from “Tom Cruz is: the Top Gun” and spelled the word FUCK in flames on stage. still, was kinda sad when it wasn’t as fun as i expected it to be [via the real world]
also saw weezer with tenacious D and totally creemed when they played “only in dreams” and covered the crowd in confetti.

saw weezer on tour for make believe. they still put on a pretty good show, i reckon. i would get hammered and go to this

i thought it was commonly agreed upon that all weezer’s song and all blink’s songs sounded like the same song? (respective to each band) and that weezer was just another rock band and blink was just another shit band?
