Hmmm, they should be, cause I copy and pasted them from the news article that was posted over a month ago.
I searched for an already existing thread too, but the most recent one was for The Used's tour with Atreyu a few months back.

i think the thread i was thinking of was the one for bfmv and chiodos, my apologies. but chiodos' myspace has a couple different dates

[Jake Denning]

This tour wont even sell out HALF the Roseland, why it was booked there, no clue.

[aradiantsunrise]

The Used need to do a self-titled album tour, play the album straight through. Throw in a few good songs off the other albums and some b-sides for the encore set. That would be sexiness.

[guitarguy316]

let me guess...same used setlist as the last 3 years

[tdunks523]

arent chiodos doing bamboozle may 1st?

Any setlists from the first show? Particularly from Chiodos.

[sweepthenation]

Just wondering if we have any setlists? Aka I only care about Chiodos

[lurker411_k9]

Both The Used and Chiodos killed it tonight. It was my first time seeing The Used and they delivered. Chiodos' new frontman sounds great, and the new material does too. They said the new cd should be out in mid-june or july. It was different without Craig, but at the same time, the new singer (I think his name is Brandon?) really seemed to fit in and did a great job.

I hadn't heard New Medicine or Street Drum Corps until tonight, and they weren't bad. New Medicine were definitely the better of the two though.

The Used:
Street Drum Corps Intro
Blood On My Hands
Take It Away
Hard To Say
Empty With You
I Caught Fire (In Your Eyes)
Buried Myself Alive
Hospital
The Taste of Ink
Blue and Yellow
Paralyzed
Best of Me
Pretty Handsome Awkward
----------------------
Free Fallin' (cover)
A Box of Sharp Objects

Chiodos:
Intro
The Undertaker's Thirst for Revenge is Unquenchable (The Final Battle)
Is It Progression If A Cannibal Uses A Fork
New Song
New Song
Baby, You Wouldn't Last A Minute On The Creek
A Letter From Janelle
New Song
New Song
The Words "Best Friend" Become Redefined

New Medicine:
Rich Kids
Amen
Like A Rose
The Takeover
Little Sister
End Of The World (on the setlist but not played)
Resolve
Race (on the setlist but not played)
Laid

Street Drum Corps:
Intro
Victory
Come Alive
Terror Surrounding
Play On It
Marry Me
Knock Me Out
Little Ones

[aradiantsunrise]

I hate that Chiodos is playing A Letter From Janelle. It's such a personal song for Craig.

Only three songs from the Artwork? I guess they realized that no one likes it. That's actually not that bad of a set for The Used, but that's not saying too much. I don't understand how they get away with having such shorts sets all the time, though. 13 songs and a cover is not enough!

[sweepthenation]

Chiodos should not be allowed to play Baby and Janelle, both of those are so personal to Craig. Also, 4 new songs? I get the feeling they really want to distance themselves from the Craig era when they play that many new ones. Also surprised at the lack on No Penguins

[andyball2311]

I can't believe Chiodos isn't playing Penguins.

[lurker411_k9]

I can't believe Chiodos isn't playing Penguins.

I'm 99% sure they didn't.

[andyball2311]

I'm 99% sure they didn't.


haha i believe that they actually aren't. i was more just commenting that it seems so strange to see a choiodos set without that song.

[skibby15]

im going to the chiodos headlining show next friday. will have video.

[skibby15]

same set as above, except different order, tonight. the new guy is good but he came off as a douche.

[sweepthenation]

Its crazy how no one cares, a year ago this thread would be blowing up. We miss ya Craig....

[aradiantsunrise]

If Thomas Erak is really in Craig's new band, chances are we won't even miss him in Chiodos anymore.

[Somefriday]

I have a feeling chiodos is gonna stop playing songs from their first 2 albums... which SUCKS. no matter what they want to think, people WANT to hear the old songs. Like if i were to go to this show, i would be bored hearing 4 songs off of an album that hasnt been released yet. Kicking Craig out was the DUMBEST thing they ever could have done. I know the new guy has a better voice than Craig and his screams are way better but Craig was the voice if Chiodos and, to me and probably a lot of other people, he always will be, even with the new guy in the band. I still really want to see Chiodos just because im curious of what it will be like. But i cant imagine liking them like i used to :(

[aradiantsunrise]

I'd rather not have them play majority of them anyway, Brandon makes them seem so tired and uninspired and then it ends up feeling like a karaoke session.

[anthonydarko]

I hate that Chiodos is playing A Letter From Janelle. It's such a personal song for Craig.
I fully agree with this.

[skibby15]

brandon just stood there the whole time and was a douche at times.

and to the thomas erak thing. thats definitely true. they are gonna be sick together. as long as craig sings and thomas plays guitar.

[ACA]

I hope the next Chiodos doesn't blow like the last one. Heartless and All's Well were awesome.

[aradiantsunrise]

Judging by the live videos of new songs it sounds like most of the shit on Rise Records.

[Under The Knife]

Man, comparing this guy to Craig is like comparing chocolate to water. Two totally separate things that only have completely divergent flavors as a basis for comparison. So yeah, water is indispensable but chocolate tastes pretty fucking awesome. Haha, I don't know if what I said makes any sense but the basic point is, Craig and Brandon have such different styles, that it's an exercise in futility to think of Brandon as replacing Craig.

You got that from the comments on a yuoutube video of a new Chiodos song

My bad. Remind me to add quotes next time.

I dont care haha its just funny you saw that comment as well

I mean its rumored to be him, but like 3 weeks ago CRaig posted a picture of a guitar amp and said that was the first clue of one of the guitarists, and Erak tweeted that it wasnt him. I mean it could still be him as the other guitarist

i didnt mean it was a sure thing, i meant that we would forget about chiodos. haha. but i bet thomas is working with him. its been rumored for a while now.

Yea. The rumors I've heard are him, Pete Wentz, Thomas, and Nick Martin. Thats a legitimate supergroup, and if all are true and than the drummer and keyboard player turn out to be decent, this band has some serious potential.

And as for forgetting Chiodos, I am still debating. It looks as if they are trying to distance themselves from their old material, and so I will check out their new album but I don't have much faith.

[skibby15]

pete wentz? hmm

[xScrewed@Birthx]

pete wentz? hmm

He's a great lyricist...but if ya got a band with thomas erak..then you can't be a subpar instrumentalist (as wentz is)..that just would be watering down the potential musicianship...

But that's just my opinion.

I partially agree. But I don't think that he's been given a chance to play with musicians of their calibre. So maybe this will do him so good. Or he screws of the entire future entity of talent that will form under Craig's leadership. Let's wait and see.
