No Doubt Summer Tour

[fowruok]

Support bands for the various dates are Katy Perry, The Sounds, Paramore, Panic at the Disco, Janelle Monáe, Bedouin Soundclash and Tinted Windows.

The tour officially started tonight in Atlantic City. The venue was the Borgata, quite different from the other venues on the tour, in that it only holds 2400 people. Tinted Windows opened -- their power-pop offerings were hit-or-miss. Though Taylor Hanson has a good voice, it was often buried in the mix. When they were on, though, they were quite good, especially on their poppier numbers.

Everyone was obviously there to see No Doubt and the venue was quite full by the time they started (but not uncomfortably so -- the Borgata Event Center has plenty of open space). They kicked things off with "Spiderwebs" and proceeded through a set of mostly hits over the next 90 minutes. The band was in top-notch form, especially surprising after their rather disastrous showing on the Today Show just a day earlier. Predictably, Gwen Stefani stole the show although bandmates Tony Kanal, Adrian Young, Tom Dumont and touring members Stephen Bradley and Gabrial McNair were no slouches at all. The energy remained high throughout, both in the band and throughout the crowd. Highly recommended -- see them if you can.

Setlist (mostly in order -- may be missing a song, but I don't think so):
Spiderwebs
Hella Good
Bathwater
Excuse Me, Mr. (new slower version)
Ex-Girlfriend
Underneath it All (I'm fairly sure they played this, though I could be wrong...)
Happy Now?
New
Guns of Navarone
Running
End it On This
Simple Kind of Life
Hey Baby
Don't Speak
Just a Girl
It's My Life

encore:
Rock Steady
Different People
Sunday Morning

[hiya]

hmm i was hoping they would play a little less singles and more older stuff, but good set list anyway(except different people, I never really liked that song). glad to hear they sounded good, can't wait to see them.

"Excuse Me, Mr. (new slower version)"

NOT COOL! This song rules BECAUSE it's fast.

[fowruok]

Yeah, I happen to really like the TK version. The newer version was all right.

[parawhore10]

does anyone know what bands will be at the cleveland date other than the obvious no doubt and paramore?

[Bruised26]

going to this tour on june 5th for Paramore, mainly. But I used to be obsessed with No Doubt when I was a toddler, so itll be fun to see them

[andrewshungry]

paramore set lists????

[andrewshungry]

they played two new songs in vegas that i know of. "ignorance" and "where the lines overlap"

[jxmnaqn88]

Paramore's set list was:

Misery Business
For a Pessimist...
Pressure
Ignorance
Crushcrushcrush
Decoy
When it Rains
Where the Lines Overlap
That's What You Get
Let the Flames Begin
Decode

[andrewshungry]

pretty solid. surprised and happy to see them not ending with miz biz. shit was getting old.

also i think its weird that they're playing decoy on this tour

[SuchAPerson22]

No Doubt's set list is good, assuming that is what they will also play on the actual tour.
I'm slightly disappointed with Paramore's set though. Slightly. I would rather hear "Emergency" or "Franklin" over "Decoy," personally. Actually, I'd rather hear "Franklin" over almost everything... Well, maybe not... I just massively need to hear it! I don't really know how I feel about them ending with "Decode" either. But oh well. I guess I'm just be happy to be seeing them again! :D And STOKED to hear the two new songs! :D

[HelpMeSleep]

what about The Sounds' setlist?

[freakster]

Ending with Decode? WHY?? They should end with Emergency or Born For This....or anything but that. haha I wish they'd play "Stop This Song" even though I know they won't! :(

[admkbl]

pretty solid. surprised and happy to see them not ending with miz biz. shit was getting old.

I wonder if they had second thoughts about not having it on Riot! because they've been playing it quite frequently. IMO it was one of the better songs from that batch. "Decode" was an interesting choice for the end. While it might make sense for an encore to have your latest single at the end, they're the openers so that doesn't apply.

[sduff85]

I feel they should start with Emergency and finish on Stuck On You personally.

No Doubt looked ok from the Youtube's I saw. Interestingly though that's the first time I have ever seen a support band get a similarly loud reaction to the headliners. :)

[andrewshungry]

no way they will ever finish with stuck on you hahah. if they even played it live ever i would be surprised.

[Bruised26]

Not liking the Paramore set... I think they should only play 1 new song, change Decode to Born for This or Pressure. and why the hell isnt Emergency on there!!?!?!

[PleasureRyland]

Does anybody have a No Doubt or Sounds setlist?

[bummm]

What about The Sounds!?

[Bruised26]

Any other setlists yet??

[S9Dallasoz]

Not liking the Paramore set... I think they should only play 1 new song, change Decode to Born for This or Pressure. and why the hell isnt Emergency on there!!?!?!

You can't take "Decode" out of the set list, not right now.

[hiya]

[Bruised26]

That will never happen, haha. especially because 95% of their fanbase has never even heard Stuck on You. But I do agree about Emergency, they really need to start opening with that song

[mlg_12345]

wtf? why are they only playing one song from all we know??
pressure is not even the best song off that cd :/

[MJB12]

Just wanted to pop in and say that the Denver show tonight was rad. Great show. The show sold out right away after tickets went on sale, which made the energy that much higher. All the setlists were the same as a few posts above.

The Sounds were good, missed the first two songs but what I saw they were good. The only song I know by them is Living in America and they didn't play it. Paramore was who I was most looking forward to see (before the show, of course) and they did great. New songs sounded great.

No Doubt put on such a great show. There was so much energy. They looked like they were having so much fun. And Gwen has a great voice. Fantastic show.

[Avs1dacup]

I too just got back from the Denver show. I missed The Sounds completely since my roommates a dipshit and can't plan ahead. Both Paramore and No Doubt sounded great. I will admit, No Doubt puts on one hell of a show. Gwen sounded amazing. As the previous poster said, the set lists a few posts up are spot on.

[SteveLikesMusic]

ughh ND is playing way too much off of rock steady, i loathe that album.

[Bruised26]

seeing this show in 6 days. Will post a paramore set!! The people I'm going with don't want to see no doubt so I won't get to see them :/
I Hope they play emergency...

[drtomoe123]

I wouldn't get my hopes up too much...Paramore's getting pretty notorious lately for NEVER changing up their set during a tour. :(

[admkbl]

For those of you who have been, how long does the concert typically go? The one in Charlotte starts at 7:30 and I'm going to ask for permission to go but need some sort of time estimation.

if it starts at 7:30 it will end right around 11:00

[snikklfritz]

just got home from the tampa show, not much to say other than paramore and no doubt were awesome and both put on great shows. No Doubt really seemed to love being on stage and their stage set-up was sweet. no shake up in the sets though, so sorry for those hoping paramore will play emergency, because they won't

[offsetgroupie]

this is how it went for San Diego. I'm pretty sure it's the same almost every show...

Sounds 7:30-7:55(6 songs)

Paramore 8:10-8:55(11 songs)

No Doubt 9:30-11:00(a whole bunch o songs)

[admkbl]

Just when I was able to get the okay, lawn tickets sold out. Great. Thanks for letting me know, though.

you could always go to the raleigh show

[admkbl]

you could always go to the raleigh show
I have extremely religious parents... I can't see No Doubt because of their "offensiveness" and so I'd only be going up there for The Sounds (who I conveniently forgot to mention) and Paramore. My dad was actually going through youtube videos trying to decide if he should let me go or not. $10 to see Paramore play somewhat locally would be worthwhile but driving to Raleigh for half a concert?

I'll just have to wait until I can find a way out of here or they headline in Charlotte.

[kissy0560]

that show was so damn amazing. whoever isn't going to this is missing out BIG

[Gaugzilla]

I was gonna catch this in either Kansas City or St. Louis, but then Brand New came out with their little show in Chicago and it's sandwiched in between that BN date. So I guess I'll be missing this show this summer. But I can attest to the praise for ND live. Saw them in the pit a few years with Blink. They are great live.

Lol. my parents are pretty religious too, but are not that strict. they are going with me to the concert, as well as my little sister. I dont think No Doubt will be too bad... Paramore certainly won't, and I dont know about The Sounds

[Bruised26]

I was so impressed by the show tonight in Atlanta. Both of the bands were awesome (didnt see The Sounds). Musically, I enjoyed Paramore more, but No Doubt's stage presence was great. awesome lights and set too

[sodamnclever]

Bought my tickets for the Chicago date the other day. Pretty excited.

I would love to see Emergency sneak its way on the Paramore setlist, although this seems like it won't be happening.

[admkbl]

Found a ticket via craigslist at the last minute and was able to see the Charlotte show, minus No Doubt (just "Spiderwebs"). It was totally great. I think The Sounds' stage presence rivaled Paramore's... I have quite a bit more interest in their music now. Paramore was fun and completely what I expected... that's both a good thing and a not so good thing, but I'm so glad I got the opportunity to go.

No Doubt looked and sounded like they were kicking ass. Oh well. I loved their stage setup.

[mrnegativezero]

Ending with Decode? WHY?? They should end with Emergency or Born For This....or anything but that. haha I wish they'd play "Stop This Song" even though I know they won't! :(

They played Stop This Song (Lovesick Melody) during the Jimmy Eat World tour I think. I saw them perform it at Bamboozle Left.

I expected them to end with Decode. As much as I would love to have them end with a fan favorite, I'm not surprised that they go with their latest singles, mainly because they actually love their singles (unlike some bands.)

[mrnegativezero]

I'm not that familar with The Sounds' set. Is the majority of it from their second album or is the majority new music?

[admkbl]

Most was from the new album. Without looking back at the set list I think the only older song was "Painted By Numbers", which they opened with.

I went to the show they played in Dekalb with JEW and they didn't play it. :/ You got lucky. haha

[apuzzlesolved]

I went to the Raleigh show and I must say that it was the greatest show I have ever been to.

[mlg_12345]

the raleigh show was a lot of fun. i have to admit that me and my friends were only going to see paramore, but once we got there and no doubt started playing i actually had more fun during their set!!! paramore sounded good and everything, but the crowd was just not as into them as they were for no doubt. overall, the concert was a great first concert to kick off my summer :)

[Hainzey X]

what time does paramore go on ?

[sodamnclever]

what time does paramore go on ?
Someone posted this earlier, hope it helps:
this is how it went for San Diego. I'm pretty sure it's the same almost every show...

Sounds 7:30-7:55(6 songs)

Paramore 8:10-8:55(11 songs)

No Doubt 9:30-11:00(a whole bunch o songs)

[UnderMyDreams]

Going to see the tour tomorrow, I'm pretty psyched!

[mjcc]

If you've seen the show with just Paramore opening could you tell me about what time No Doubt went on? I'm on a crazy schedule today and just trying to figure out how I'm going to make it! Thanks!

[foreverSWEET]

If you've seen the show with just Paramore opening could you tell me about what time No Doubt went on? I'm on a crazy schedule today and just trying to figure out how I'm going to make it! Thanks!

Just went to the show last night, and the set times were as follows:

Doors @ 6

The Sounds: 7:00 - 7:25
Paramore: 7:40 - 8:30
No Doubt: 9:00 - 10:45(ish)

It seemed to me like No Doubt's setlist was SHORT. They played tons of songs, yeah, but I work at the venue, Nissan Pavilion. Our sound curfew is 11:00 PM, and No Doubt finished their first set at 10:15. They came on about 5 - 10 min later for their encore. Maja and Hayley, and all of the other members of different bands accompanied them onstage for .... was it "Different People" or something similar? .... and to my knowledge they only had 3 or 4 songs during encore. I normally don't leave til the set's over, but I was DD'ing last night and I had 3 drunks to get out of the venue. So we actually walked out of the venue at 10:40 and they were winding down.

It might seem picky, that they finished 20 minutes early (a whole 20 min, whoop dee doo), but the night before we had George Strait almost push 11. Maybe its cos George has been around longer, but even Coldplay played until almost 11. I don't know.

Regardless, I had SO much fun during No Doubt. It made me realize that I know so much more of No Doubt's music than I thought. Spent the whol night watching the show from VIP, had a blast.

i saw the nissan show last night. thought it was great. the big song with everyone on stage was a cover of adam and the ant's 'stand & deliver.' i recorded it here:

[WordzandDreamz]

Whomever went last night... Did Paramore play Decoy in their set? My friend is a rook and she doesn't know the song, so she can't tell me if it was played.

[SteveLikesMusic]

Suuuuuuuuuuuuch a good show! Gwen is so fucking hot. Her body is insane. She has abs of steel haha. She randomly started doing pushups on stage.

Paramore came back out and they dueted 'stand and deliver' and it was awesome.

[Michellee]

Whomever went last night... Did Paramore play Decoy in their set? My friend is a rook and she doesn't know the song, so she can't tell me if it was played.
In Toronto, it was the last song they played. It's a single, isn't it? So I'd think they would play it every show.


This tour was soooo fun though. Gwen is so legit and I love how she pulls people on stage! This is definitely in my top three concerts.

[hiya]

just got back from this, freakin amazing.

Janelle Monae was really boring and played like 4 songs. wish we got the sounds instead.

Paramore was very on point, pretty sure it was the same list posted, mostly familar with the singles and a few others, wish they played more than 1 song off AWNIF.

No Doubt was freakin phenomenal. so much energy, great performance, the entire crowd was sooo into it. def. a different ND experience from the last time I saw them, a lot more ska influence going on now. Gwen also pulled some people on stage and was signing autographs to the first row.

setlist:
Spiderwebs
Hella Good
Bathwater
Excuse Me, Mr.
Ex-Girlfriend
Underneath it All
Happy Now?

Guns of Navarone

Anyone who has went -- what's the merch selection like? Prices?

[hiya]

This thread has been so dead! haha I am going on Saturday, really excited.

Anyone who has went -- what's the merch selection like? Prices?

there was a decent size selction, but it wasn't that nice looking for the prices imo. tank tops around $30, t-shirts $30-50, hoodies were like $70-90, posters were $15-20, and then there was some other odds and ends.

[kigginsthisprov]

Wow. I guess I'm not buying any merch. The only thing I would buy would probably be is The Sounds shirt and/or 1 poster.

[SuchAPerson22]

Going tomorrow and I'm STOKED! :)
Lawn tix... But oh well.

[jillierose]

i'm so excited for the chicago date but i hope it doesn't rain!
i saw possible thunderstorms for saturday on the forecast
i have lawn seats and i emailed the venue to see if the lawn is covered
they said no...and you aren't allowed to bring umbrellas...
uhhh so what the fuck are you supposed to do then?
like chill in the thunderstorms??

[freakster]

mannnn this thread is dead! I'm going on saturday and I have seats so I won't be getting wet (sweet brag) but they're not great (not so sweet brag) :/ haha

damn those prices are redic for paramore but pretty standard for a band like no doubt. I thought it was pretty awesome when JEW played with paramore that their (JEWs) merch was affordable. shirts were $20 and vinyl was like $10.

I've been in the lawn before and it's rained, sometimes it just adds more fun, sometimes not so much. I can see it being a fun crowd in the lawn if it rains, so I am not really worried, $10 lawn seats will not disappoint. haha

well glad it's alive and kickin' now. too bad the set lists are set in stone or else this would make for a more interesting chat. :/

[Creightonballa2]

Has Paramore been doing any signings. I'm at their show as we speak

[SuchAPerson22]

WHEW! So I went last night, and let me tell you- No Doubt sure does know how to put on a show.
Alright, so seeing as no one had posted a Bedouin Soundclash setlist, I was sure to get it.
They just came on stage and started right in, and not a lot of people noticed. (I did! haha)
-Until We Burn
-St. Andrews
-something I didn't know... but I caught "I was fourteen when I broke the law"
-Living in Jungles
-Gyasi Went Home... I think haha
-When the Night Feels My Song
-and again something I didn't know... but caught "science is a power..." and lots of nanananas
They were REALLY great and after they played EVERYONE was asking who they were... I thought that was funny :)
So then Paramore came on, and as per usual, were amazing.
The set was the same as has been previously posted, but they didn't play "Decoy." Hayley said she was having vocal problems, so they may have skipped that as a result. "Ignorance" and "Where the Lines Overlap" sounded soooo good... And a few people knew the words to Ignorance.
Then No Doubt came on. Boy, did I get a shock. I knew it was going to be big and epic, but I didn't know it would be THAT big and epic.
Holy cow.
I didn't even bother trying to catch the set, but it was basically the same songs, just switched around. It was so much fun. They definitely gained a whole new respect from me and got bumped up about 10 miles on the awesome scale. I don't think I stopped moving for the whole set. Just... wow. Paramore didn't come out for "Stand and Deliver," which disappointed me, but oh well.
As far as the crowd went, the pit seemed like it sucked. I was on the lawn, but looking down, all I could see was the back of cameras. No one really moved through the whole show down there. The lawn was hoppin' though! However, when Gwen said "jump," EVERYONE jumped. Those 25,000 people could've caused an earthquake.
The thing I loved most about No Doubt was their crowd interaction. Gwen practically lived in the pit at times, and everyone came down at the end and high-fived all the people and what-not. Gwen read people's signs, took their gifts, and got a guy on stage for a picture. It's crazy that, as famous as she is- well, as they all are really, they still love the fans and want to be with them and have that interaction. I saw Fall Out Boy in May and they didn't do anything like that, other than when Pete came down for "Saturday." No disrespect to Fall Out Boy in any way, though.
Overall it was a FANTASTIC show. I would do it all again if I could.
/lengthy post

[Creightonballa2]

^ Pretty much sums it up perfectly. The lawn was BOUNCIN!

Hayley just sounded like she had lost her voice, and even with that, she still sounded good, but her voice was very weak, not as powerful.

And I'm with you, I really thought more people would be there for Paramore than No Doubt, I had so much fun, and I barely even know No Doubt (I was one that went for Paramore), but DAMN Gwen and co. made it a concert to remember for a long time.

Next up for me at Verizon is Motley Crue! Always a great show with those guys.

[sodamnclever]

Show on Saturday was amazing. No Doubt played a little of "Squeal."

Yeah I follow her on Twitter and she gave her vocals some needed rest for 2ish days before our city and she sounded amazing. I guess the days when it`s date after date after date she can`t really rest up.
