[redsoxguy676]

I am going to be at the Croc Rock date. Just got the e-mail from fancorps about it.

[TMS2787]

Anything about pre-sale?

[Schmidty Says]

Will be going to see them at Club Zoo. God, I hate that fucking venue, but it's Brand New!

[TMS2787]

Will be going to see them at Club Zoo. God, I hate that fucking venue, but it's Brand New!
What size venue is it?

[dontlookaway]

brand new is seriously going to be at croc rock?

[redsoxguy676]

brand new is seriously going to be at croc rock?
Yes indeed.

[cscwell107]

How the fuck do i get tickets?

[yayitsjoe]

i don't even listen to brand new that much. but this is just too awesome to miss.

[xBLACKOUTx]

I cannot express how much I want a Florida date. I only got to see half of their set on the fall tour, I need to see them again.

[UnderMyDreams]

Will be buying the day they go on sale regardless of if I can go or not. ahah

[jbertclassic]

Brand New & P.O.S. For reals?

[amelio]

P.O.S & Brand New is going to be such a legit show, there's a mashup floating around the internet of Sowing Season & Optimist .. people should check it out it's pretty amazing.

[chassmariee]

This is everything! :)

[iaminsane20]

This show would be too sick to see.

[Schmidty Says]

What size venue is it?

It's a pretty decent size place. I don't like it cause it's an under-21 club, and they really pack the place. I just don't like the venue.

[Chuck!]

Boy, this will be miserable at Croc

[madisonprep]

they have got to play a mpls show...right? please come to mpls. this is POS' town...it'd be sooo sick.
done freaking out.

[redsoxguy676]

Boy, this will be miserable at Croc
Why is that?

[TMS2787]

I hate when people say "They have to play" (insert city) "Please play" (insert city) "Come to" (insert city) as if the band actually reads them and has control of it.

[kailaSUPAHrad]

I don't like Northern Lights at all but... Brand New!!! on my 16th birthday!

[Chuck!]

Why is that?

They'll oversell it by at least 25%. The place is fine for mid-size shows, but when it gets remotely crowded it's absolutely unbearable

[Schmidty Says]

Tickets are on sale now. Anyone else having trouble buying them?

[Chuck!]

they're sold out already

[AmericanTragedy]

Got two tickets for the NH show!

[Schmidty Says]

they're sold out already
Keep trying. I got an email saying they were sold out but then I was able to buy three tickets. And I got the confirmation for it. I'm so excited for this show and it's still two months away!

[xJesusFreakx]

Got my two Pittsburgh tickets. Score.

they're sold out already

Wait... Are you the person I was going to buy that CD off of and then was never able to followup on? Dang, it's been a grossly long time.

[Schmidty Says]

i managed to get mine, actually. people should call the venues too, they helped out a friend who missed the presale.

haha yes. offer's still on the table, dude.

[RiCCioLi]

Completely agreed. I hate that sweat box. You cant see shit either usually if you dont get there early as hell and the line takes forever to get in. But as I sit here complaining, I already ordered 4 tickets to it. hahaha

[redsoxguy676]

Just ordered two tickets off the front gate website for the Croc Rock show. I may have two extra tickets for this show since I called Croc Rock to do a presale purchase over the phone.

[cscwell107]

Pissed I cant get tickets for the pittsburgh show. I guess Ill just have to wait for the regular sale.

[TMS2787]

I got four for Pittsburgh and when I went back to place another order for more friends I couldn't. I'll try my luck with TicketBastard.

[Salomonbz90]

Got my Pittsburgh ticket..can't wait

[dontlookaway]

Just ordered two tickets off the front gate website for the Croc Rock show. I may have two extra tickets for this show since I called Croc Rock to do a presale purchase over the phone.

pm me by wednesday if you do because if you do have extras ill buy 2 off you

[TheMisanthrope]

i messed up, shoulda bought tickets the 1st day

[TMS2787]

Any one have extra's for Pittsburgh?

[kailaSUPAHrad]

do they check id at Northern Lights? I turn 16 that day and I don't have an id so if they do I'm fucked.

[cscwell107]

Got my tickets for Pittsburgh like a week ago. Super pumped.

[TMS2787]

do they check id at Northern Lights? I turn 16 that day and I don't have an id so if they do I'm fucked.
Why don't you just go get an ID?

Got my tickets for Pittsburgh like a week ago. Super pumped.
Where did you order from? I didn't get either my pre-sale or Ticketmaster orders. I got an e-Mail that my Ticketmaster order was printed about a week ago but still haven't gotten them.

Also, I am looking for 2-5 tickets for the Pittsburgh show. Dumbass friends dropped the ball so if anyone has anything -- please drop me a PM.

[cscwell107]

[larokr]

My sister and I were thinking about trying to get to the Scranton show, but then I realized it's Blue/White weekend at PSU. Oh well.

[TimMcGreevy]

yeah they do ID at the door

[cscwell107]

[TMS2787]

Still waiting for my damn pre-sale tickets to come in the mail.

[kailaSUPAHrad]

no problem, i can't wait for that showme either!!!

[MegSo]

me either!!!


845, hollllla.

I can't wait for this show.

[philbylink]

Gonna try to make it up to the Hampton Beach show. It's weird they're playing there. I'm pretty sure that I could get in with a parent/guardian (correct me if I'm wrong?)

[kailaSUPAHrad]

Gonna try to make it up to the Hampton Beach show. It's weird they're playing there. I'm pretty sure that I could get in with a parent/guardian (correct me if I'm wrong?)i'm pretty sure that if it's 18+, it doesn't matter if you have a parent with you or not. I would call the venue or something though.

[ZoSo1886]

how are people just finding out? Croc Rock has been sold out for weeks, I am hoping I can utilize my Scranton connections

[TMS2787]

What the hell are you talking about?

[RiCCioLi]

Has anyone received their Croc Rock tickets yet from the duckat king presale??

[Schmidty Says]

Still waiting for my damn pre-sale tickets to come in the mail.
So am I. It's starting to frustrate me that they haven't come yet.

[sgm03]

come to florida...PAlease

[TMS2787]

Yup, I'm sure Brand New is going to read this. I think you are 14, not 24.

If I was Australian I'd be pissed at that setlist, 18 songs? Boston got like 20 songs and they come like 3 or 4 times a year. Its not even the song selection, it's the fact I feel they owe them something a little more considering they come to OZ once every two years, My friend is going to the Brisbane show i hope they add something to make it special. This is the laziest band in the music industry I swear to God

[TMS2787]

Lol.

Brand new finally learned how to write a setlist.. except it is much shorter seeming than the fall tour. They added YFW and cut Deja? Weird... I remember much more deja and more YFW on the fall tour

[bigproof]

i would be happy with that. would like quiet thing in there but no seatbelt makes up for it.

[Chalie22]

Is it just me or does Brand New have the same setlist every time they tour? I love them but would it hurt to switch up the Deja Entendu songs especially Tommy Gun and Sic Transit which they play literally EVERY time. What happened to "The Boy Who Blocked His Own Shot" or "I Will Play My Game Beneath the Spin Light"

[redsoxguy676]

So who is going to be heading to Allentown on the 27th?

[theband]

This is the laziest band in the music industry I swear to God

Love Brand New, but have to agree with you.

[TMS2787]

What's amazing is the fact that people never stop bitching about Brand New, what they do and what they don't do. These shows are overseas, hardly anyone on these forums can or will go to them. Not to mention they hardly play in Austrila and you guys are bitching? Seriously.

[xBLACKOUTx]

Yup, I'm sure Brand New is going to read this. I think you are 14, not 24.

Is it now not allowed to post what you want the band to do?

just wondering.

[Bruised26]

They added YFW and cut Deja? Weird... I remember much more deja and more YFW on the fall tour

When I saw them in November, they didnt play anything from YFW and maybe 4-5 songs from Deja. It was an awesome show.

[TMS2787]

Is it now not allowed to post what you want the band to do?

just wondering.
It sounded like something a stupid teenager would post on the bands MySpace or Facebook page, as if the bands even reads the comments or has any control of it. The "Omg! Come to..." posts are stupid.

[xBLACKOUTx]

It sounded like something a stupid teenager would post on the bands MySpace or Facebook page, as if the bands even reads the comments or has any control of it. The "Omg! Come to..." posts are stupid.

Well, it's not really controllable, and people usually just post them in a statement of how much they really would like to see a band. Although, they tend to word it differently then others. It's perfectly fine I think. To each their own.

:Yawn: half the time those people who say it won't even go the show or they say it about a place they recently played or frequent.

That's a horrible set list. If their Pittsburgh show doesn't mix things up at all, I won't want to see Brand New live again until they release another album that doesn't suck.

[TMS2787]

Robbers have been added to the whole tour as the opener.

[milli626]

so is rutgersfest open to the public or do you have to be a student?

[xJesusFreakx]

Hey, people who bought tickets from the first preorder, have you gotten the tickets in the mail yet? Did you get email notifications? The credit card was charged for my 2 Pittsburgh tickets, but I haven't gotten anything. I might email them this weekend and see what's up. If they lost my order somehow, I'll be mad.

I've been wondering this as well. I ordered the first day they went on presale and haven't gotten my tickets yet either. If you contact them, let me know what happens.

[DItaliaO]

quote from the site:

"Rutgersfest is a FREE for the Rutgers University community and their guests. There are no tickets for the event."

[TMS2787]

A new Brand New show has been added. It's a festival and pretty bad ass.

[ACA]

Brand New is not playing Camden.

That should say Piscataway.. Camden is 90 minutes from there.

[Silenced712]

so is rutgersfest open to the public or do you have to be a student?

Any one can go, its at the piscataway campus of the school located right next to New Brunswick.

[Silenced712]

Rutgersfest has NOTHING to do with RU.

It is not sponsored by nor sanctioned by Rutgers University.

Ha, it is most definitely sanctioned and sponsered by Rutgers.

[andyball2311]

less than a week till scranton

I wonder what they're going to play/how many songs

[ZoSo1886]

less than a week till scranton

I wonder what they're going to play/how many songs

I am going to this date. Interested to see if they play some YFW to keep up with the upbeat nature of POS

[TMS2787]

Has anyone who ordered through Front Gate not gotten there order yet? I am starting to freak out.

[kailaSUPAHrad]

i was shitting a brick too. just got mine today. the tickets look sick!

[TMS2787]

I got mine today. They are just regular hard Ticketmaster tickets?

[xJesusFreakx]

I've got this Brand New concert on Sunday, and on Saturday I'm going to the Pittsburgh Comicon. This is going to be a great weekend.

[ate_teenfourevr]

I got mine today. They are just regular hard Ticketmaster tickets?

mine are ticketmaster, but have a cool design on them. im sure there is no real difference, i was just excited as fuck to finally get them

[larokr]

Thinking about/probably going to Rutgersfest next Friday. I definitely need a break before finals week.

[ate_teenfourevr]

does anyone want a ticket for brand new pittsburgh show? have an extra, im going to the show...

[murder=whiteout]

Robbers have been added to the whole tour as the opener.

Can we just talk about how great this band is? So happy for these guys.

[ZoSo1886]

I will be trying out live tweeting the brand new set @ jamesbenedict at Scranton tonight

[fanberlinboy]

According to the guy above me's twitter, the setlist was this:

Gasoline
Sink
Vices
Sowing Season (Yeah)
Bought a Bride
The Archers Bows Have Broken
Okay I Believe You But My Tommy Gun Don't
Sic Transit Gloria...Glory Fades
Seventy Times Seven
Say It Ain't So/Jesus Christ
Degausser
You Won't Know
You Stole

[TMS2787]

That setlist seems too short but I do know that The Polar Bear Club also played, not sure about Robbers though.

[xBLACKOUTx]

Good set, but a little short.

[redsoxguy676]

Hopefully that's not the whole set.

this setlist is correct. i couldn't have asked for a better set list and they nailed every song beautifully tonight.

[larokr]

It does seem a little short to me too, but it isn't bad. I'm unsure if I can get to Rutgersfest anymore because the bus I was going to be taking to get home on Thursday apparently stopped running for the rest of the summer... starting now. Bad timing. And Rutgersfest isn't announcing set times so I don't know what time Brand New is going on. Ugh.

[andyball2311]

Show was good last night. I also felt the set was a little short and for as much as I love You Stole I would've rather heard something different for such a short set. Hopefully Tuesday they'll play for longer.

[Illuminate]

Pretty short set. Hope it's worth the 2 hour drive Tuesday.

[ZoSo1886]

that set is correct, 70x7 was not even on the setlist - i grabbed one from the sound guy. I caught the end of Polar Bear Club, they were very solid and played until 7:40

Brand New did not talk much and playing from about 8:10 to 9:20 or so.

The doors were at 6 so I do not know about openers, I know POS did not play

well rutgersfest is going to be a battle of the bands winner J Cole POS (dunno their order) Talib Kweli and im 95% sure Brand New is headlining. Concert usually starts aroun 3 so I would say they would be on 530 6 ish perhaps.

[Silenced712]

the line up is BoB winner POS J Cole Talib Brand New... just checked it out. I'd say brand new goes on 6 the earliest I know last year N.E.R.D. was headlining and shit got delayed like an hour for whatever reason

Yeah - I'm not sure what bus I'm going to be taking, and it'll be arriving at King of Prussia. It'd be more helpful if they could post set times, haha. I'm still trying to figure it out - my friend wants me to go so badly. Thanks for the info!

[Illuminate]

Somone please post a setlist from tonight? If possible from P.O.S. too.

[walshknilb281]

That setlist is brutal, give us something new Brand New, Daisy, Noro, some demos. Never thought I'd say this but I'm more excited to see P.O.S. than Brand New

[Silenced712]

no problem man, they dont ever post set times, rutgers is retarded. concert usually starts at 3 I believe, 2 the earliest.

[redsoxguy676]

So what are the chances that a majority of the crowd at Croc Rock will be under 21? I really hope the bar area isn't packed like the underage section will be since they oversold the fuck out of the place.

Great set by P.O.S. and Plain Old Bill as always. They killed the whole set and he did the best to get everyone who didn't know his music invovled. I would say it was 50/50 of the crowd being into it and not into it.

Brand New (9:40-10:55)

What a set! The band was dead-on all night, sounded great (except the problems on You Stole), Jesse had great energy and the crowd was insane. A bit short but I can not complain. Awesome, awesome set. The merch is exactly the same as the Fall Tour.

Overall a great show and well worth the two hour drive and ticket price.

[Schmidty Says]

I got the last copy of The Devil and God... on vinyl tonight. The gold vinyl is beautiful.

[TMS2787]

Haha, I got my copy half-way through P.O.S.

[Chuck!]

oh, basically the exact same setlist as the fall tour, except shorter. If it weren't for P.O.S I'd consider selling my ticket....

[Schmidty Says]

Haha, I got my copy half-way through P.O.S.
The merch guy made me and one other guy wait a few extra minutes cause he had two copies left and wasn't supposed to sell them.

[Illuminate]

oh, basically the exact same setlist as the fall tour, except shorter. If it weren't for P.O.S I'd consider selling my ticket....

Still worth going but very upset about the identical shorten set list. :-(

[RiCCioLi]

I got a copy of the gold vinyl last night and I dont know if I should open it or not.....

[ate_teenfourevr]

sorry brand new, but seeing you twice in 6 months, the previous time was in their hometown of long island (7 hour drive) and they show no energy that night either.. the set was barely average at best, jesse said about three words all night, and they still dont know how to create a set-list.. i left the pit after 70x7 cause i knew the order of the songs coming, and a girl puked everywhere haha... but still the no encore thing is so annoying.. its not about the band for the encore, its about the fans who paid their money and screamed their lungs out for your band... they didn't encore in L.I. either, and this time it left a really bitter taste in my mouth. they could have play jude law, soco, quiet things, limousine, literally anything.. grrrrr

[aradiantsunrise]

I got a copy of the gold vinyl last night and I dont know if I should open it or not.....
Bust it out dude, don't sell it

[RiCCioLi]

Bust it out dude, don't sell it

im not selling it, i just think if it was sealed it would be cooler. Ill see if i can grab another one tuesday or friday, if not ill buy a reqular one and open that

[TMS2787]

The merch guy made me and one other guy wait a few extra minutes cause he had two copies left and wasn't supposed to sell them.

Brand New does not do encores. Last night was the 16th time I have seen them and with the exclusion of the fall 2007 Tour with Thrice and mewithoutYou, Brand New does not do an encore. Even then it was a just the (Untitled) instrumental turned into a jam session. I don't know how you can say the band had no energy when Jesse was jumping around like crazy over half of the set, I have seen him hardly move before, they also aren't a band that talks to the crowd a lot, ever - last night he addressed three or four times which is def. the normal. In between how many songs do think a band should talk the crowd? Three or four times is def. good enough for a 15 song set.

Yeah Right (Science Science)
P.O.S. Is Ruing My Life

Optimist (We Are Not For Them)

Great set by P.O.S. and Plain Old Bill as always. They killed the whole set and he did the best to get everyone who didn't know his music invovled. I would say it was 50/50 of the crowd being into it and not into it.

Brand New (9:40-10:55)
New Intro
Sink
Vices
Gasoline
Sowing Season
Bought A Bride
The Archer Bows Have Broken
Okay I Believe You, But My Tommy Gun Don't
Sic Transit Gloria... Glory Fades
Seventy Times 7
You Stole
At The Bottom
Jesus
Degausser
You Won't Know
Play Crack The Sky

What a set! The band was dead-on all night, sounded great (except the problems on You Stole), Jesse had great energy and the crowd was insane. A bit short but I can not complain. Awesome, awesome set. The merch is exactly the same as the Fall Tour.

Overall a great show and well worth the two hour drive and ticket price.
Both sets are solid. The only addition would be adding Half Cocked Concepts to P.O.S.'s set.

[redsoxguy676]

Got one ticket for croc rock in Allentown tomorrow $30 takes it I can meet you there I will be there around 7 for the show.

Pretty much spot on. I wouldn't even consider the untitled jam from 07 an encore. Post devil and god, brand new doesn't do encores. That's the norm. They haven't really done consistent encores since the comeback tour in 2006. As far as talking goes, any brand new fan knows that jesse is shy and doesn't really like talking during the set, clearly makes him feel akward, which is fine cause as far as I'm concenred I go to watch them play music.

It would be nice to see longer setlists, especially with these smaller venue shows. However, there was a time when they would always play 22 song sets and people would still complain because they didn't play 70 x 7, so over the years I've learned to just be happy brand new is still playing live shows and take what I can get. If any of you were lucky enough to get tickets to the small us tour last summer, then that show should have held you over for a long time, cause after going to that show, I'll probably never complain about a setlist again because it was so good. I would also agree with the above, the biggest factor in how good they play is their energy, if jesse shows a lot of energy than the show is usually sick no matter what they play. This being said, I'm super stoked for tomorrow night.

What time were doors?

[Schmidty Says]

I think it looks so ugly.
Compared to the white vinyl, it is beautiful. At least I think it is.

I couldn't agree more. Last night was the first time I've seen Brand New live, and I couldn't have been happier with the performance. Aside from the mic problems in "You Stole," the band was spot on.

[Schmidty Says]

What time were doors?
Doors were at 630

[TMS2787]

Both sets are solid. The only addition would be adding Half Cocked Concepts to P.O.S.'s set.
Exactly how I feel/t as well, they had five more minutes so they could have played it. Regardless, it's not a big deal because it was awesome.

I've come to the conclusion Brand New "fans" will never be happy with what they do and don't at a live show. It's quite ridiculous. I also can agree with you about the fall 2007 tour but they did leave the stage each for a few minutes and come back out plus the setlists had the encore dash in them when I got them from the stage.

What time were doors?
6:30 PM, but what does that matter as all the shows are (or can be) different?

[iaminsane20]

Exactly how I feel/t as well, they had five more minutes so they could have played it. Regardless, it's not a big deal because it was awesome.

True. The only time I saw P.O.S. was Warped 09 and it was amazing. I'd love to see him again.

[RiCCioLi]

just so i know around what time to get there cause I could care less about POS

[Illuminate]

Got one ticket for croc rock in Allentown tomorrow $30 takes it I can meet you there I will be there around 7 for the show.

Is it still available??

[redsoxguy676]

Is it still available??

Yes.

[takeiteasy_]

Club Zoo fucking sucks. Brand New was pretty good, but the place was hot as balls and so overcrowded. I almost wanted it to end the whole time with the indian chick with her long, frizzy, smelly hair in my face and the sasquatch next to me with eczema on her sweaty arms.

[redsoxguy676]

Still have a ticket up for sale for $30 tomorrow night let me know.

[dweso]

Yeah, I mean it was an encore technically, but it was pretty much planned the entire tour. I consider it an encore if it varies and the band actually has to decide what to play, not just whats on the setlist. The only show that tour they did something unplanned was in pittsburgh when jesse "broke" the loop on the untitled encore and they ended up coming back out to play 70x7.

They used to play sick encores though, I remember the first show of the 06 comeback tour, jesse came back out three seperate times playing good to know/70x7, then back again to play soco, then back again for play crack. the encores from the 2004 fall tour were pretty sick too. Those were the days haha.

[ate_teenfourevr]

were you next to her the whole time? i had to have been right next to you haha.. my friend decked her in the face cause she smelled so bad.. it was indescribable, i have smelled hockey bags that were millions of times more enjoyable than her.. it has to be the same girl.

[underdawg1119]

Has a video of this new BN intro popped up? Every time I searched for it on youtube, I got some Paramore song.

[ate_teenfourevr]

In between how many songs do think a band should talk the crowd? Three or four times is def. good enough for a 15 song set.

i want to set the record straight so i dont look like a total douchebag hater haha. i love brand new, to the death literally so much that i got 70x7 tattooed inside my lip and showed it to jesse outside of nassau coliseum in long island and he said, "that is gnarley, but what is the JL for at the end?" (the tattoo looks like "70x7-JL) and i was just petrified that he even noticed i showed it to him and i was like its for Jesse Lacey.. and he replied, "oh shit duh haha ive never seen anyone with my name on them"... without question i was crying, screaming and on cloud 9 after that.. and they closed 70x7 haha.. but i just got disappointed last night because of the AMAZING set list at wembley (i have never got to hear them play TQTTNOEK or Jude). i should know not to be extremely expectant of YFW songs, and anything besides sic and tommy and crack from deja. just once i want hear those. i loved the show last night contrary to my emo rant haha. sink, sic, archers, tommy, 70, crack, sowing, jesus were all amazing.

with that said, i understand that bands are into the "no encore" thing. i have been to two different TBS shows where they didn't encore (weird i know), but i have been to shows with three encores, Springsteen played 7 songs after leaving stage the first time, Green Day played two encores (hate all you want, i love them), blink encored this summer. i know brand new havent encored since i think what 06, which was the second time i saw them, and that show i kid you not vin said something along the lines of, "were tired of playing quiet things were going to play guernica instead" i love guernica so at the time i was like OMG fuck yeah not realizing that it may have been my only chance to hear it live GRRR haha. i just really do strongly believe that a band encores to show appreciation for its fans, and you can take it for what its worth but i love it when the lights dim again and everyone screams and a band rips back into first chords of a song that make you go insane... two of my personal favorites were Bruce Springsteen encoring with the song Rosalita, and the blink reunion tour of dammit. im sorry for the purists who will accuse me of being of selfish for wanting them to come back out, but it really do feel that with the support we have given them we deserved it... am i selfish? YES, but hey most of us here have been supporting brand new since 2001, and we would all defend them to the grave!


i think it just boils down to one of those things for me that i have heard everyone of my favorite songs at live shows from all my other favorite band: Green Day played 2000 light years away, Jimmy Eat World played 23, sweetness, bleed, and if you dont dont (at the same show), Taking Back Sunday played the blue channel, blink played always, reckless abandon and dysentery gary in succession!, starting line played drama summer and saddest girl story, Fall Out Boy played sending postcards from a plane crash, All time low played jasey rae and coffee shop.... you probably get the point haha..

i was just disappointed that they didn't play at least one of those two songs, although just being able to see brand new again was worth every second. each time i leave their concert i just pray it isn't the last time i get to see them. i just want to hear those songs live and then if i went to a brand new concert and Jesse stood on stage and just detuned his guitar with massive feedback (ala syd barret) i would be ecstatic.

does everyone agree though that the two best songs last night were: Archers and 70x7. unless of course it was someone's first BN show then possibly Play Crack was their fave..

sorry if i pissed anyone off with my rant haha..

still my second favorite band, and no other will ever, ever, ever, ever take that away from them.

[dweso]

Don't worry you didn't piss anyone off. Just remember to cherish them and see it from their view. Bands like brand new, modest mouse, saves the day, etc... are a dying breed and pretty much last reminents of that music era. I feel the same every time I leave a bn show, please don't let this be the last. And the BIGGEST thing I have found over the years is that if they don't want to play a certain song, if they do end up playing it, it sucks cause they aren't into it. In this past fall's tour. hands down the best stuff live was daisy, just because that's what they wanted to play. That;s a big thing to remember about brand new shows as I'm sure you know haha.

And by the way, Jimmy plays like the most insane encores haha. I saw them once on his birthday and they literally played an hour long encore.

cheers to that! one of the most underrated and influential bands of our time. i cant go a week without giving, Bleed, Clarity, or Futures a spin. when people bring up our generations great songwriters/frontmen i always include him. i dont know if anyone else has this feeling, but i kind of always feel badly for jesse... i think ALL of us are somewhat guilty of holding him to this god-like standard (for me he will never get back to the level of your favorite weapon) but sometimes i feel like jesse doesn't feel as if he is "appreciated" or something.. cant really find the words to describe it but does anyone else who has seen them live more than a few times agree?

[TMS2787]

I surely wasn't pissed off, it's your opinon and you are undoubtly intitled too it, I just wasn't sure about the no energy thing because I've seen them be a lot more dead on stage then they were on Sunday night, lol.

[dontlookaway]

any word on merch? hows it look? any pullovers? how much? snarm

[takeiteasy_]

were you next to her the whole time? i had to have been right next to you haha.. my friend decked her in the face cause she smelled so bad.. it was indescribable, i have smelled hockey bags that were millions of times more enjoyable than her.. it has to be the same girl.

Haha.. I was towards the corner in the right in the beginning but then moved up to the center.

Also, with your other post, you took the words right out of my mouth.

[takeiteasy_]

any word on merch? hows it look? any pullovers? how much? snarm

It's the same as the fall tour. They have a red hoodie with a blurry picture on it and tour dates on the back (I think it's $35 or $40).

[JTMcKrackles]

Just got on the guest list for tomorrow's show, SO STOKED.

[ate_teenfourevr]

Just got on the guest list for tomorrow's show, SO STOKED.

first of all F YOU haha jk u lucky bastard haha.. please explain this "guest list"

[kailaSUPAHrad]

Just got on the guest list for tomorrow's show, SO STOKED.it is going to be epic.

[alekats2010]

sooo excited. each time ive seen them theyve gotten better. the armory in 07 then nassau in november now northern lights. its gunna be a sick show.

[stupidtyonparad]

then according to you, no band plays encores. i'm looking at setlists from 8 different shows hanging on my wall right now, and every one that thye played an encore at, they're all written down. bands plan encores. every band does. and even the seventy times 7 show, that was planned, there was pictures of the setlist that surfaced that had untitled crossed out and 70x7 written on it.

sorry bud

I'm thinking of at least 10 different bands I've seen in the last few years who have come out and done encores that were not scripted.

[walshknilb281]

P.O.S. is gonna put Brand New to shame Thursday can't wait

[stupidtyonparad]

I'm thinking of at least 10 different bands I've seen in the last few years who have come out and done encores that were not scripted.

i can only think of one show i've ever been to that this happened at, and ironically it was a brand new show, so i have a hard time believing you

[andyball2311]

show in allentown tonight was good

Brand New played the same set list they played Saturday in Scranton, they just changed the order a little bit. The messed up Sowing Season halfway through so they just started the song over haha. I was hoping for something a little different, but regardless all the songs sounded great and the band looked like they were into it.

actually I'm pretty sure brian thought the song was over for some reason and just stopped drumming haha. it was after the first time they sing "it's time to put the seeds into the cold ground". They just lauged about it and started the song over. It still sounded good.

Anyone know where I can get some music from Robbers? I was really into them.

HA, sorry bud.

You must not get to too many show, or atleast good ones. I have 5 std setlists over the years...never planned a set encore, not once, I've even had a long talk with dave about it back in the day and he said they usually play what the crowds been cheering. Or go to a modest mouse show, look at their setlists and 90% of the time isaac doesn't even play the songs on their encore setlist, he completely changes them after they go in. My friend toured with hot rod cicuit as an extra guitar in the early 2000s and he said all tour long they would make encores up as they go.

I do agree with you that some bands plan them, but "every band does". false, sorry bud.

[zackintoys]

Setlist from tonight at Crocodile Rock:

Sink.
Vices.
Gasoline.
Sowing Season (Yeah). [first half of song]
Sowing Season (No/Yeah). [full song]
Bought a Bride.
The Archers Bows Have Broken.
Okay I Believe You, But My Tommy Gun Don't.
Sic Transit Gloria.
70x7.
You Stole.
At the Bottom.
Jesus.
Degausser.
You Won't Know.
Play Crack the Sky.

Really excellent show. Was my first time seeing a few of the new songs played; You Stole is simply amazing to hear live [especially if you can ignore everyone talking to their friends, grr.].

[dweso]

show tonight was excellent, the sink/vices/gasoline opening was by far the highlight, the new stuff sounds so good live, just like it did in the fall. Everyone had lots of energy too, haven't seen jesse like that since novafest 08, good to see.

[RiCCioLi]

Another excellent BN show for me in the books tonight. And I was able to snag another vinyl! Its funny what "tipping" can get u

[JTMcKrackles]

Do they have Daisy AND TDAG LPs on this tour???

[RiCCioLi]

Do they have Daisy AND TDAG LPs on this tour???


no Daisy, and only 30 TDAGARIM Gold Vinyls per show. selling out before show really begins so get there very very early

[Indoor Living]

Would do anything to get to one of these shows. Two of my favorite artists.

[JTMcKrackles]

no Daisy, and only 30 TDAGARIM Gold Vinyls per show. selling out before show really begins so get there very very early

Fuck. If I buy it as soon as I get in, do you know if they'd hold it for me until the end?

[RiCCioLi]

Fuck. If I buy it as soon as I get in, do you know if they'd hold it for me until the end?


I had to hold mine, but who knows. Tip the merch guy like 10 bucks to hold it for you until the show is over. He may be a nice guy and do it for u

[xJesusFreakx]

Don't think I complained in this thread yet. The show on Sunday was really disappointing. I can't say I really want to see them again live until I see that they're mixing things up more. Oh well.

[takeiteasy_]

Agreed. Sort of. I'll always see Brand New, but I couldn't help being a little disappointed after that show.

[walktheplank]

Pretty much spot on. I wouldn't even consider the untitled jam from 07 an encore. Post devil and god, brand new doesn't do encores. That's the norm. They haven't really done consistent encores since the comeback tour in 2006.

If any of you were lucky enough to get tickets to the small us tour last summer, then that show should have held you over for a long time, cause after going to that show, I'll probably never complain about a setlist again because it was so good. I would also agree with the above, the biggest factor in how good they play is their energy, if jesse shows a lot of energy than the show is usually sick no matter what they play.

this kid knows what's up. well said, sir.

[alekats2010]

just got back from the show at northern lights. same setlist from all shows. he said theyre unsigned i didnt know that haha, you guys probably did. ive seen them three times including Nassau and this was much better then nassau. Great fucking show. robbers was good and POS was really good also.

[stoopkid8215]

the show tonight was great. pretty much the same setlist but it all sounded fantastic. and yes, jesse announced that these shows were exciting bc its been a while since they played as an unsigned band.

[walshknilb281]

POS been staying on the stage or performing in the crowd?

hey thanks, i appreciate it haha.

Anyone else think robbers got like 200% better since the summer tour? They really sounded terrific.

am i the only person that found the faces their singer made absolutely fantastic?

ehhh robbers was pretty bad. musically they were good, but he was trying too hard to sound like modest mouse on vocals. i love flesh and all, but his vocals killed it for me. P.O.S. was really awesome though.

"we're a band called robbers."

am i the only person that found the faces their singer made absolutely fantastic?

i think i ended up behind the tallest people in the room for each band lol, so i couldnt see his face. i did enjoy the "we're a band called robbers" after EVERY song though hahaha.

[fifpb99]

on a side note, if they replaced you stole with noro that wouldve been amazing. still a great set list though.

[kailaSUPAHrad]

i'm so glad the singer from Robbers said "Hi we're a band called Robbers" after every song.

P.O.S was awesome. everyone around me seemed to be into it.

[Shikaka]

I was at Northern Lights last night too, Jesse definitely said (paraphrasing): "This show is special because now we are officially an unsigned band, so that's nice. It's less complicated." I know this is a bit off, but something to that effect was said. Can anyone corroborate and/or correct my quote? I think this is news!

Edit: I actually captured this moment on video! Sorry for shitty framerate on my iPhone 3G (jailbroken, Cycorder) but good sound.

And my transcription:
[This is one of our first] shows as an unsigned band in about 8 years(?) or something like that. It feels really nice. To not have anything cluttering up our lives anymore(?), so, thanks for being here...

that's a shame. his faces were amusing, to say the least. i'll see if i can get the video i have to work.

brand new unsigned = some of their best work... and shows.. lets hope the trend continues - well not that they remain unsigned (unless they want to) but that they keep making great music and bringing emotionally charged records for us to absorb

how can you make this claim? you have no idea. unless you're going by their first 4-track demo, and if so, your taste is bad.

[forkandknife]

going to rutgersfest tomorrow, does brand new do what they want, or will they festival up their set playing more of the singles.

i actually wouldn't mind either, only cause i've seen brand new before and being able to say i've seen 70x7 would feel great

[estrella starr]

does anyone have any idea what time brand new are supposed to play rutgersfest tomorrow?

[Silenced712]

they are headlining it so the concert starts i believe at 3 (2 the earliest) so Id say they would be on around 6ish

[JTMcKrackles]

Show last night kicked ass. You Stole was amazing live. Pumped I got the TDAG vinyl, too.

[the outsider]

they weren't planning on it. he announced crack the sky as the last song and someone (i believe from robbers?) came onstage and whispered to jesse in the middle of the song, then came out with the rest of the band afterward to sing jude law with them

[TMS2787]

Show tonight was ridiculous.

[Paulb-182]

Jude Law was immense at Wembley. I wouldn't much care to have it in the set all of the time though.

[yayitsjoe]

[princesschad]

stayed behind after the hampton beach show last night and met jesse and vin. shook Jesse's hand and thanked him for the music, and asked him about the mysterious 'degausser' chorus to which he replied that there really aren't any written lines for it.

so for anybody who still thinks jesse is an asshole who doesn't care about fans, I want to say that he was the chillest, most down to earth person who shook everybody's hand and spoke with everyone who cared to stay and try to meet him.

Wasn't there an interview with Vin where he said that they were gonna start trying to connect with fans more again?

[forkandknife]

im pretty sure they will play whatever they want ie the setlist we have been seeing

yeah they didn't play anything to surprising, a lot more daisy then i expected, but i guess they are touring in support of that.

[RuckerPark]

how's that set?

I believe so, I think it was posted maybe about a month ago

[billmar]

i was there today at rutgersfest, but it was too ridiculous to take my phone out to keep a list. anyone get it?

[larokr]

Didn't make it home in time to get to Rutgersfest. By the time my bus got in to King of Prussia, I wouldn't have made it to rutgers in time to see them. Oh well.

Setlist was identical to the previous show at Hampton Beach, minus Jude Law at the end.

Ah, okay. Thanks man. Didn't see it earlier. A bunch of people in the crowd at Rutgers were fuckin dicks.

Yeah, there tends to be a lot of those at Rutgersfest typically. That many drunk people in one place
at the same time is bound to produce a large amount of dicks.

Yeah I know....I go to school here and Rutgersfest last year was pretty fun despite kids trying to mosh to NERD. You're right though...the whole point is to get trashed so people just want to get rowdy I suppose. I liked how Talib called out the right side of the crowd (where I was) for starting a mosh pit during one of his "love songs" haha. So hilarious.

But yeah. I definitely couldn't appreciate Brand New as much as I would have hoped

[stupidtyonparad]

tonight at suny fredonia's "fredfest" was a pretty huge let down.

just got home, and i have to say, if it wasn't for the show being free, i'd be pissed.

15 songs. barely over an hour.
get the fuck outta here brand new, are you serious? sloppy as hell too, vin's guitar wasn't working for a couple songs, pain in the ass. crowd was the worst i've ever been a part of. the ONLY saving grace was jesse. he was smiling the whole time, i've never seen him look so happy, and that alone made it kinda fun

Saw this girl from the crowd dancing, and go out and high five Vin towards the end of their set. Cutest thing ever. Anyone know who she is? Any relation to Brand New?

[yourfavweapon88]

TW3BeinN2fM people need to stop saying they hate playing look how much fun they are having during a song they " hate playing"

Please tell me you're being sarcastic. They literally could not look more bored.

haha right? jesse's happiness was shocking to me, and it was good to see. the last few times i've seen them he just stood there looking miserable as hell.
but yeah, i actually don't go to fredonia-i had a friend's friend get me a ticket so i paid 5 bucks. i told my good friend who couldn't make it down that it really wasn't something epic that she just had to see. and to me, it wasn't the actual show that pissed me off-it was the people there. too many drunks(which i went in there knowing there would be a lot.. i mean, it was a college show) and a bunch of people that just went 'because it's free!'. i was standing near an assload of people who were talking during the performance and it was irritating the shit out of me. sure, it is free to you-but come on. there are actual BN fans here that want to try to enjoy the show. oh how i love college shows..

[stupidtyonparad]

i don't go to fredonia either, just got lucky getting my ticket
