Lmao, so much of this thread reeks of film professors saying shit like "the red truck symbolizes blah, blah, blah" while the Director on the DVD commentary is like "yeah, we just needed a truck from the right time period and it happened to be red".
There is no high quality version of these songs- the version on the vinyls is pretty low quality. I wish they either remade or remastered them- but I bet they didn't have any of the stems to remix it or else I feel like Patrick would've.
I think this is on most tttyg anniversary vinyls. It's weird listening to it though since it's a much quiter mix then the rest of it. There's also an unreleased (Jakus Song) from the same anniversary editions.
I didn't know what "we're going down (swinging)" meant (not a native English speaker) so I never gave it a meaning, actually the whole chorus I never knew what it really meant. Then I asked on this subreddit and now I know that we're going down is actually a real "saying". Now only the other half of the chorus is left to figure out 😂
Right! Lots of room to dance around and have fun. No ones frizzy hair being in your face, no bruised ribcages for people on the barricade, being able to see much better because there’s more space between you and the person in front of you. Like the pros far outweigh the cons to me.
Honestly, I skip them all. When I was a teenage I thought Get Busy Livings was so deep, but as an adult on the other side of my teens/20s I just kinda go "oof. don't wish for that feeling back." I would say 20 dollar nose bleed is my favorite.
If anybody is considering one, Oxford makes incredibly high quality products. We have multiple pennants of theirs in our house and they all look incredible after a handful of years.
Really love the Oxford pennant x pop punk thing. Its a really nice way to show off the bands you like in a way that looks more adult and not so teenager tacky.
Here’s everything obscure I can think of: Hand of god, the eowyg version of calm before the storm, snitches, it’s hard to say I do, champagne, my heart is the worst kind of weapon, Austin, the original my songs know what you did in the dark, Patrick doing so sick by Ne-yo, Star 67, we don’t take hits we wrote them.
I know there’s been so many times it’s been the best time to be a fob fan. But I really feel like right now is so special and the fan base is just so energized. I don’t know how to explain it. I can’t believe I’m still here 18 years later in my life and feeling just as excited as I did when I was 13. Literally all of my life is different, but this tour has really healed my inner teen.
They owe Portland an absolutely massive apology. First show in ten years and it’s by far the worst of the tour. Been a fan since pre-hiatus and this is the first time I’ve genuinely been disappointed — $200 and our 8-ball was a setlist staple a week later.
Tbh I looked because I was curious. While I agree that it’s not an exciting set list for tourdust, 1 year ago just that setlist alone would’ve blown everyone’s mind. While I understand, and I’d be disappointed too, I think there are a lot more fob setlists I’ve been disappointed in.
I can’t hear “it’s happening again” without thinking of Twin Peaks.
Same!! I wouldn't put it past Taylor loving Twin Peaks
I'm also not a word tattoo person, a lot of the fonts don't age well. I have a ship in a teacup tattoo that is my FOB adjacent tattoo.
I have to inquire one day about how much it would be for them to play at my wedding or at least a birthday party 🥲 not that I can afford it lmao
You guys want to have a christmas party this year? We could sell tickets and book FOB lol

As someone who took film studies classes in HS and college- I can hear it now.

I have it- this is on there!
Me reading this and realizing my hiking boots have red laces.....
Omg I have that!!! I’m so sad 97x isn’t on the radio anymore but I think you can stream it now
97x isn't on the air anymore?! I used to live in Orlando and would listen to 97x all the time and go to NBT!

Same (also 30)! I had a great time on the floor this tour without anyone pushing beside me.

Oh and going to the bathroom!!!! You’d be stuck in the pit for hours not moving because you’d lose your spot. Not anymore!!!

I had this shirt!! I remember going to aero with my mom on album release day for it!!
Yes but also I feel like I remember Pete making the Joker Harley comparison. I feel like if anyone embodies that dynamic it’s them.

I have one it’s only a year old but I love it! My advice for people is to frame it! I have a large banner framed above my bed and it looks so nice.

Yes! Saniderm is the best!!
I remember this!!
Evening Out - pretty in punk

Honorable mention, music or the misery, alpha dog, from now on we are enemies. Anything really obscure I guess.

I’m way too fucking high right now to react to that set list.
But what the actual fuck was THAT
A real life conversation
Did anyone record the medley or am I just going to die happy and unhurt by Patrick?

I do get knocked down every time I follow the thread for that nights show. And then I get up again and do it again. And again.
I was just getting into FOB when this tour happened and I didn't see them until the following yr at HCT. I feel this was THE tour.
I have that black and white spin magazine. I don’t know why I had them sign that vs a cd. I feel stupid now 🙄
