November 9th!

[aradiantsunrise]

I'm looking forward to seeing them again. They did so well here on their fall headlining tour last year, hope they bring that cool light wall setup thing with them again haha.

Yeah that was sweet. At the venue I went to they had an upper balcony and right below me was the sound table and it was sweet to watch the guy do the lights.

Niiice. That thing was like the coolest thing I've ever seen a band use at a show, I was pretty much fascinated by it lol.

[PleasureRyland]

I saw them when they were on Honda Civic and they were awesome. I'm so excited to see them headlining!


And I'll be able to say I've seen someone more than once, besides the Jonas Brothers. (Embarrassing I Know)

Wow, you don't get out alot, do you?

[PleasureRyland]

Wow, you don't get out alot, do you?

I've been to some really awesome concerts. It just happens that I went twice with my sister to Jonas Brothers. This summer I got to see The Eagles and Tom Petty, so that was awesome.

Yeaaah it was a good summer. My birthday was a couple weeks ago and I got rockband live tickets so that'll be the next stop after TAI

[andrewa5]

If i end up going id wanna hear:
The Academy is...: The Phrase That Pays, Down and Out, Black Mamba.
We The kings: Secret Valentine,Skyway Avenue,This is our town.

These Would be the songs id HAVE to hear.

We The Kings always plays Secret Valentine and Skyway Avenue. I've seen them play This Is Our Town once or twice in acoustic. I hope they play it so you can hear it, because it sounds great live.

ok wow...they arent some amazing band, but they are fun and are usually pretty solid live.....I agree they arent on par with bands like AFS but I don't think they are horrible support.

What? They are about as sterile as you can be. I'm all for the "hey, they're a fun band" pop-punk acts but these guys are in the pile that should just be forgotten about.

[chcougar1]

hmm. I guess I disagree. I think songs like Skyway Avenue and Check Yes Juliet are incredible catchy. I've seen them a couple times and they sound pretty decent live too so thats always a plus...unless that has changed with some stardom?

[Sandie-Jenkins]

Yeaaah it was a good summer. My birthday was a couple weeks ago and I got rockband live tickets so that'll be the next stop after TAI

oh very nice. i don't really like the bands on that bill but it'd still be pretty hella fun!

Dude...you're a 25 year-old man. I'm all for liking dumb pop-punk when it's warranted but We The Kings? Seriously?

[chcougar1]

haha. Yeah I know....my friends think I'm a teenage girl trapped in a 25 year old man's body when it comes to musical taste sometimes.

Do you think any of these bands are good pop punk: All Time Low, Hit the Lights, Forever the Sickest Kids..................cuz I think they are pretty similar lyrically and stylistically to We the Kings and I would consider them good pop punk (especially ATL and HTL).

A swing and a miss on pretty much all three. These bands are basically the epitome of fashion-over-function pop/rock. While I'm not a punk rock elitist in any sense (hey, I grew up listening to Green Day and The Offpsring) there is nothing even rometely punk, alternative or counter-culture about any of these bands (one even supports the Republican potential). Hit The Lights totally gave in to the pro-tooled, glossed up, auto-tuned sound on their latest release. I don't blame them though, as it's blatantly clear that the new singer just can't sing (as witnessed at their Bamboozle set).

ATL, while their hearts may be in the right place, the whole irony and "ain't-we-clever" bit in their videos just makes them look obnoxious. Plus, they're a sloppy live act and it's hard to like a band with that many D-bags in it.

FTSK are perhaps the worst of the bunch. Total gimmick/nostalgia-sound with barely a genuine note in their songs. Maybe I'm just jaded, after all, this wouldn't be the first time that grown men have written completely unapologetic juvenile songs (see everything Blink-182 did before the self-titled).

In terms of what I consider "good" pop-punk, I'd have to go with Green Day, Unwritten Law, Lucky Boys Confusion, Goldfinger, Autopilot Off, Fall Out Boy (who are much better than any music snob ever gives them credit for), The Offspring, etc.

But, who knows, maybe I'm just a jaded/cranky old man who's out of touch with what "the kids" are fussing about today.

I appreciate your ability to have an actual conversation about this topic rather than just telling me the bands suck haha

I guess bands like ATL and HTL are my guilty pleasures (and I actually thought ATL was pretty solid live). But I agree Fall Out Boy is VERY good pop punk...although their live show (although energetic) doesn't seem to be THAT strong...but maybe they arent trying to sound like their albums live!

But yeah, I guess WTK and FTSK are just guilty pleasures of mine...yes I know they are generic but if their sound catches my ear I generally like it.

What is your take on the Mile After? They seem pretty similar to the bands Ive mentioned before....just curious though...

Thanks, and I appreciate you taking my criticism in a constructive manner. I like FOB because I think Pete is a good lyricist and speaks to issues/thoughts/feeling that live outside the high school drama/my girlfriend left me type deal. Time will tell if they can grow old gracefully.

As for Mile After....it pretty much sounded exactly like I thought it would. It's funny, my friend and I had a conversation about this recently and we both agreed that we had no intention to follow the next generation of Fall Out Boy's and Panic At The Disco's around. Those bands were kind of the last ones we caught on to and, we're basically happy to hear their new music, but have no interest in hearing the imitators. Not that Mile After is exactly like them but they're just another version of the pop/emo/sorta-punk-tinged-whatever music that has been spinning on MySpace profiles for the last 7-8 years (wow, I can't believe it's been that long).

yeah...how long did we have to wait for the mile after album?! SOOOO long!

You are right though..it is almost like Fall Out Boy is the last great pop punk band

15 songs? Not too bad. I like how they're playing more songs off of Almost Here than Santi. Hopefully they'll have a Hey Monday setlist but it might be like this:

How You Love Me Now
Obvious
Run, Don't Walk
Josey
Candles
Homecoming

Probably 1 or 2 more songs? Set It Off and Hurricane Streets is what I'm wishing for.

[sodamnclever]

I am beyond excited for this tour.
The Test acoustic...really looking forward to that one. Kind of bummed there isn't a lot from Santi on that set posted (I'm sure most people are happy though). I would have expected "Same Blood" on there. Anyways, really looking forward to this, hitting up St. Louis and Chicago, I'm hoping they play "Almost Here" at one of those dates.


I'd really like to hear WTK play "This Is Our Town" too. They played it when they opened for Cobra last year, so I could see them playing it again.

[evanbythebay]

Obvious
Run, Don't Walk
Josey

Hope its not the same 6 songs we just saw, I'm only going for them, then leaving and going to Four Year Strong

[kigginsthisprov]

We The Kings will play it. They're going to have to have somewhat of a long setlist so they'll have to have that song,

Hope its not the same 6 songs we just saw, I'm only going for them, then leaving and going to Four Year Strong

How come? They're all good songs. They'll maybe change it up a little bit but that's what it'll probably look like. It's their first US tour so they need to make an impression to all the new fans. Did you see them on The Why So Serious Tour?

[robat19]

I would have thought they would play more of fast times. In the newest TAITV Sisky says he is going to mix up the set list with all 3 albums and some b-sides, not sure if thats true or not.

Because I JUST heard those songs, not down for repetition, I wanna hear Hurricane Streets, Should've Tried Harder, and 6 Months. I'm not gonna be disappointed if they play the same 6 cause I love those songs, but change is nice. Yeah I went to the Chico show

Well I'm pretty sure they'll play at least 4 out of the 6 songs the did on Why So Serious, let's just hope they play Hurricane Streets too. I'm not so sure if they would play 6 Months because they'll probably play only one slow song which is going to be Candles. And Should've Tried Harder is up in the air.

Why does everyone never want to hear songs off a bands newest album? Especially when it's from bands like The Academy Is where there is not much in the sense of a discernible difference from album to album.

[PleasureRyland]

Did anyone who went last night get to meet any of the people in the bands?

How can you like Almost Here and not like the new one? They're practically one in the same.

[dani1292]

I'm really suprised they're not playing more songs off of the new album. I personally like the older albums better, but I really enjoyed Fast Times as well. I've been hearing songs from Almost Here and Santi for a while now, so more new songs would be refreshing.

[SETHYizdaSEX0rz]

Does anyone know We The King's?

[chcougar1]

How can you like Almost Here and not like the new one? They're practically one in the same.

I disagree. I think Almost Here has A LOT more edge to it...Fast Times is pretty much just a straight forward pop record IMO.

They did play that, along with Skyway Avenue, Secret Valentine, Check Yes Juliet, Stay Young, Whoa, a cover of Feel Good Inc. There were a couple more but I am completely blanking on what they were. They were amazing though.

[PuxRawkPrincess]

Did anyone who went last night get to meet any of the people in the bands?

I met the lead singers of The Academy Is..., We The Kings and Hey Monday. Could have met more, but it was so cold I couldn't wait any longer.

[chcougar1]

true. I really expected this would be Barrington heavy. Kind of glad at the mix, I've never seen them headline so this is a good variety in my opinion.

wow I expected them to do more songs from Fast Times but thats kinda good that they're still sticking to what got them there in the first place. doing an even number of songs from each record is a good idea. I hope they sing automatic eyes when I see them!

[GatorAJ]

Alrighty, friends. I just got back from the St. Petersburg show at Jannus Landing, and it went completely different from the rest.

To start, it was a miserable day in St. Pete, raining the entire day. The crowd was outside in the rain waiting to enter for a few hours and once they did at 7, everyone was kind of restless. The show is supposed to start at 8, which came and went, as it took until 8:30 for the first band to take the stage. A local band, The Prospect, was supposed to open, along with Hey Monday and Carolina Liar. All three were cancelled because tech guys were getting shocked onstage trying to set up due to all the water. (Jannus is outside, by the way, on a covered stage).

We the Kings was set up and came on stage about half past 8, and played a couple songs before they were told to buy time to work out the bugs onstage with the water. Before they made it to the next song, they were told they couldn't go on because it was a safety hazard, and apparently a fire started on the side of the stage.

Travis didn't miss a beat and apologized to the audience, then told them they would go on and do an acoustic set. The band tossed picks and drumsticks into the crowd while Travis and Hunter walked along the barrier, greeting fans as they set up for an acoustic set.

They played their set and then The Academy Is... came out and did theirs, with just Chislett on acoustic, and William singing.

My memory is a little hazy, but I believe these are close to correct, albeit maybe not in the right order.

I hope I covered all the songs. The guys all seemed to be in good spirits despite the show having its share of difficulties. Having seen them at the Orlando show just a few days ago, it was a completely different experience, and it was pretty nice they didn't just say, "Screw it, we're just going to cancel it".

I really feel for We the Kings, however. Being from Bradenton, just a few minutes away from St. Pete, this was really their home show, and the crowd showed that. I'm not sure I've seen a more energetic crowd at Jannus than during their set, and it had to come to an end much too soon. But hey, it'll stick out in my mind, because how often do you get to see something different like that?

[aradiantsunrise]

Alrighty, friends. I just got back from the St. Petersburg show at Jannus Landing, and it went completely different from the rest.

To start, it was a miserable day in St. Pete, raining the entire day. The crowd was outside in the rain waiting to enter for a few hours and once they did at 7, everyone was kind of restless. The show is supposed to start at 8, which came and went, as it took until 8:30 for the first band to take the stage. A local band, The Prospect, was supposed to open, along with Hey Monday and Carolina Liar. All three were cancelled because tech guys were getting shocked onstage trying to set up due to all the water. (Jannus is outside, by the way, on a covered stage).

We the Kings was set up and came on stage about half past 8, and played a couple songs before they were told to buy time to work out the bugs onstage with the water. Before they made it to the next song, they were told they couldn't go on because it was a safety hazard, and apparently a fire started on the side of the stage.

Travis didn't miss a beat and apologized to the audience, then told them they would go on and do an acoustic set. The band tossed picks and drumsticks into the crowd while Travis and Hunter walked along the barrier, greeting fans as they set up for an acoustic set.

They played their set and then The Academy Is... came out and did theirs, with just Chislett on acoustic, and William singing.

My memory is a little hazy, but I believe these are close to correct, albeit maybe not in the right order.

Oh yeah, and Hey Monday did a bit of an acoustic show by their van after the actual show, which was pretty cool. Their lead singer looked pretty bummed when her band got pulled, but she looked pretty happy during TAI's set, and came out to do guest vocals on one of the songs, which may have been Down and Out.

[kigginsthisprov]

I knew Hey Monday would play that setlist. Oh well, it's a good 6 song set.

[jhennis]

love Hey Monday...

[robat19]

I wonder if the TAI set lists are changing every couple shows? Sisky said he was going to be changing it up.

[aradiantsunrise]

I wonder if the TAI set lists are changing every couple shows? Sisky said he was going to be changing it up.

Yeah they have been with a few songs. On one of the dates someone listed them playing Season and Rumored Nights and at the show I went to they took those out and put in Down and Out and Beware! Cougar! which is totally fine with me haha.

[kailaSUPAHrad]

all i know is that TAI better play Season at my show or i will cry.

[kylecrowe]

i saw that, not sure if i believe it. I spoke with the butcher at a show last fall, they said they dont play it anymore, not sure why...however, i do hope they changed their mind, Season is a great song

[ChapterFour]

So if you're reading this wondering if you should go see The Academy Is... live or not, you should. It's worth it. They were amazing in Dallas. (I was way excited to hear Santi's LAX) Plus, I don't like We The Kings much, or at all, but they did a pretty good cover of 'Feel Good Inc.' (Gorillaz) It almost made me respect them as musicians!

[chcougar1]

Just got back from the Seattle show and even after seeing the Academy Is... for the 11th time they still impress me each time! Tonight's set was a bit different from recent ones posted and we had a couple of surprises at tonight's show.

TAI played the following songs (I didnt keep track of the order because I didnt think I was actually going to stay for their entire set but I did):

Slow Down
The Phrase That Pays
Classifieds
Checkmarks
Almost Here (last song of the night)

Neighbors
We've Got a Big Mess On Our Hands
Everything We Had

Forever Young (first song of the set)
His Girl Friday
Rumored Nights
The Test
Automatic Eyes (Acoustic)
After The Last Midtown Show
About A Girl
Everything We Had


The encore for the set was:

Automatic Eyes (acoustic)
Snakes on a Plane WITH COBRA STARSHIP (they had a night off so they made an appearance)
Almost Here

We The Kings was fairly solid and played pretty much every song on their album.

I thought Carolina Liar was decent for not knowing their stuff and Hey Monday was a solid enough opener.

It was a good show overall:)

9 times + an acoustic set first time seeing them was the fueled by ramen and friends tour in March 2005 with Fall Out Boy, Midtown, and Gym Class Heroes.....I had only heard of TAI at that time and they blew me away. Then they toured like CRAZY for the next year so I saw them a bunch...and they always seem to be at warped tour so those added up too

and really...why didnt you just pay the $25 for a ticket? did you wait too long and it sold out or something?

ah you live/go to shows in NYC...I think EVERYTHING is more expensive there.

The venue here also uses ticketmaster to allocate their tickets, but it was still only $25 after charges. the venue holds about 1200-1500 people. But yeah I'm assuming NYC costs more for shows...thats quite a bit of a difference though

Its crazy hearing about $25 concerts besides Warped Tour. All of my concerts are $10 and under and Ive seen some big bands. Armor For Sleep and Saosin $10. Emery and Mayday Parade $10. There are more, but those bands are the biggest ones Ive seen at my favorite venue that I go to.

I guess concerts are my one and only hobby.

and agreed about the opening acts of this tour

[chcougar1]

Its crazy hearing about $25 concerts besides Warped Tour. All of my concerts are $10 and under and Ive seen some big bands. Armor For Sleep and Saosin $10. Emery and Mayday Parade $10. There are more, but those bands are the biggest ones Ive seen at my favorite venue that I go to.

Yeah...$15 is generally the cheapest tickets can get here in Seattle (for a nation touring band anyway, local shows are still $5-10 sometimes).

But I do miss the days of $8 shows .....ugh I still can remember paying $8 in September 2005 for Panic! at the Disco, Augustana, Cartel, TREOS, and Acceptance (in that order too)..my how times have changed :( lol

[CharlieY23]

hey. im considering going to this show [in Hartford, CT]...but i've never been to a show like this...i've only been to ska/punk concerts. at those shows theres skanking and moshing...what actually goes on at a concert like this?

[asmandamz37]

a whole lot of pushing...and some people jump. haha
if you stand further to the back, you won't have to be crushed by girls trying to reach for william beckett's hand, and you can just dance and stuff.

[CharlieY23]

right right. a pretty boy lead singer. i go to ska shows...i usually dont have to worry about this hahah oh well. i like the academy is.. i look forward to seeing them

[blimpcityhero11]

okay in considering attending this tour, i need to ask have the crowds been mostly screaming teenage girls? cause id really like to see the academy is sometime, but if i'm gonna be the oldest one at the show i'd probably pass

That's how their show was last year and I can only imagine it being worse now... This is one of the few reasons I'm not going to this tour.

[caLLmEnOoNe]

i'm okay if i go to the back. but am i gonna hear william. sometimes these girls scream the lyrics a little too loud

[asmandamz37]

I stood in the back of newport- which is a pretty big venue, and could hear every word perfectly.
It really depends on the sound of the venue.

[caLLmEnOoNe]

okay that's cool. i guess i'll have to wait and see

[andrewa5]

is there a small chance TAI played skeptics and true believers on any dates??

[CharlieY23]

could someone post a recent setlist? so that way we dont have to go searchin

After the Last Midtown Show
Almost Here

tai already has a new song?

[robat19]

TAI played Winter Passing tonight in Detroit as well. Hey Monday wasn't there tonight and nobody said anything about why they weren't

[caLLmEnOoNe]

eh i really don't care much for hey monday

[daboch]

i'll be going Nov 15th at Starland. It'll be my first time seeing WTK, Hey Monday and Carolina Liar. I saw The Academy Is a while ago. I'm excited to see WTK, when i got their album i couldnt stop listening to it. I'm sure it'll be a good show.

[Ashley_Trouble]

tai already has a new song?

yes and it's AMAZING!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ksZnnIfwnlM

[Ashley_Trouble]

My night will be complete if they play this in either St. Louis or Chicago.

[meganonthetrain]

I really liked Winter Passing. I thought it was appropriate considering snowy conditions.
And I wasn't really disappointed about Hey Monday not being there...


Also, did anyone at the Detroit show notice Danny Stevens from The Audition came out on We The King's last song?
I couldn't really see, but I swear it was him. But my friend didn't think it was him...

[caLLmEnOoNe]

yes and it's AMAZING!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ksZnnIfwnlM
that's great. but these guys don't stop, fast times just kind of came out

[robat19]

And I wasn't really disappointed about Hey Monday not being there...

I was. I was looking forward to seeing Cassadee...

[caLLmEnOoNe]

ugh 9 more days to TAI. seems like forever

Winter Passing sounded great last night.

[caLLmEnOoNe]

If they don't play His Girl Friday tonight, I'm gonna be pretty bummed. I love Hey Monday and We The Kings, too. I wish HM would play Hurricane Streets.

Danny was at the Jack's Mannequin show in GR last night. He gets around in MI.

[aradiantsunrise]

Anyone who has seen The Academy Is recently, did William mention anything about Winter Passing being recorded and put on a CD or iTunes or something so people can get it? I really want that song, haha.

[meganonthetrain]

Danny was at the Jack's Mannequin show in GR last night. He gets around in MI.
Well, I think he is originally from Michigan...

[Maxismyhomeboy]

[robat19]

Please Dont Mis-Inform People

[heartspelunker]

so the show at the roxy kind of sucked. not their fault though-- its a club night at 10, so everyone got cut short. we didn't even see hey monday. that, and some dbags forgot they were at a 'pop-punk' show. there is nothing hardcore about tai, please.

[Laur3l]

[gphatx]

Hey Monday played three songs, but it was easy to miss because I was at the front of the line and they started playing as soon as I got inside. And tell me about it, that pit was one of the worst I've ever been in.

[caLLmEnOoNe]

hehe well i know all of the lyrics to Beware! Cougar!, summer hair = forever young, his girl friday and about a girl lol i'm learning :D
good cause those are like the songs they'll definitely play. seems like forever til Wednesday. it will be my first time seeing them, how about you?

[Laur3l]

good cause those are like the songs they'll definitely play. seems like forever til Wednesday. it will be my first time seeing them, how about you?


third :D. not really a fan of WTK but i've seen them twice also

[heartspelunker]

yeah, we were in there at 7:10, and my friend was like 'there's no way that's carolina liar already?!'
only three songs is ridic ; i was really looking forward to checking them out.

my friend was one of the people who was on the ground during we the kings. it was a little unreal, haha. it was definitely the worst i've been in, i figure the middle east keeps people too close together to thrash around.

[CharlieY23]

so i finally went to my show. i liked it, had a lot of fun TAI was amazing, it was my first time being intro'd to the openers and i liked them too. my only complaint was all the little girls there. i mean, i understand, but still, it felt like a jonas brothers concert with better music.

best song i think was 'we've got a big mess on our hands,' the band really got the crowd into it, throwing up fists and horns during the chorus. good stuff. i'd definitely see them again

great concert, i just wish i knew the opening acts before going, but i liked their music an i will check them out

[kailaSUPAHrad]

Wendsday is going to be fucking amazing ahahha

[caLLmEnOoNe]

Wendsday is going to be fucking amazing ahahha
haha i know

[eyessewnshut]

I'm so excited, Roseland ballroom is by far my favorite venue to see bands.

[caLLmEnOoNe]

I'm so excited, Roseland ballroom is by far my favorite venue to see bands.
oh you've been there? is it huge?

[CharlieY23]

oh you've been there? is it huge?
yes. it is a very large venue

[Phil507]

yes. it is a very large venue

I got there right as TAI went on. The room was about half full at that point. Also, I saw two fights break out (both between a guy and a girl wierdly) and some other girl got knocked down and I think twisted her ankle/broke her foot. Anyone else see this?

[caLLmEnOoNe]

i was in the back and i still had a good time.

[eyessewnshut]

last night's show was amazing<3
except hey monday. ugh they're just so terrible, especially their singer. idk y, she just kinda bugged me.
but the academy is... was absolutely amazing. you could tell they really love performing and their music.

[caLLmEnOoNe]

i think hey monday AND carolina liar were bad. we the kings hyped me up for TAI.

[eyessewnshut]

haha i know, i didn't even watch carolina liar's set. personally, i don't like we the kings, but i think they put on a good show.

[caLLmEnOoNe]

yeah i don't like them either but they were better than the other two. TAI was amazing well that's a given
