i was going to, but now i'm taking my friend because she wants to see anberlin but has no car. so now i have to stay. not looking forward to it. they were 100% awful last time i saw them. but whatever. i get to see between the trees & a great local band, so i'm over it. haha.

You are crazy! Anberlin are superb live.
And I can't wait to see Madina Lake, that'll be fun.

it just depends on if stephen's mic is turned up enough to sound over the ridiculously high volumed instruments haha Last time I saw them they were superb and stephen was even sick....


and you can check out Madina Lake finally (I think you might have watched a couple songs at warped?)

haha. i gave them a chance, and i'll give them a chance again [because i have to]. but madina lake was decent when i saw them too.

i could definitely hear his voice. i don't enjoy them on cd or live. at all. & actuallly i saw all of madina lake's set @ warped. i wouldn't say that they were amazing live, but they were good.

Madina puts a shit load of energy into their live show....did Nathan jump into the crowd?

[kristanxmarie]

i don't know. i don't know who nathan is. i was far away & just watching them because i was tired @ warped tour & wanted to sit in the ampitheatre thing. haha. and i don't enjoy seeing people jump into crowds after witnessing josh from four year strong get a concussion or something from doing that.

Lol at Josh being a total tool.

[kristanxmarie]

it was his own fault, but i felt bad for him because he was so nice to us...even if he couldn't see straight. haha.

Their old synth player was better. He just jumps around and acts like he's hot shit when he really, really isn't at ALL.

[kristanxmarie]

hahahh. i never saw them with the old synth player, but that's what i thought about him the first few times i saw them. but i had never talked to him before & i did at this last show for awhile & i changed my opinion on him now.

Too bad you don't like Anberlin. This could have been a civil discussion otherwise.

[kristanxmarie]

Too bad you don't like Anberlin. This could have been a civil discussion otherwise.

aren't you the one who was arguing with me over bayside albums? i don't think you ever make it possible to have civil discussions just because people don't have the same taste in music as you.

[The Personist]

aren't you the one who was arguing with me over bayside albums? i don't think you ever make it possible to have civil discussions just because people don't have the same taste in music as you.

Hahaha I was kidding. But yeah, we argued about Bayside. It was funny.

Seriously, I'm kidding. I can have civil discussions with people who don't agree with me on music tastes. Well, except circatbs, but he thinks FFTL and Alesana are insanely talented.

well that's good to know, i guess? i love how there's nothing we can ever agree on. and haha cool, because i actually enjoy alesana sometimes, but i don't find them to be any better than any other really generic band in their genre.

[ZoSo1886]

anberlin was excellent last time i saw them

[zubinmoosa]

I still can't believe this tour isn't coming to Toronto. At Anberlin's last show here, he said "We'll be back in January!" Wooooooo. Or not.

:-(

I'm glad it's coming to Calgary though...no bands come to Calgary! =[
So many bands at Warped this year were like "We'll be back here in the fall with 'some band'" and that never happened...

[EmoPunkKid28]

Bummed it's not coming to Boston. Haven't seen anberlin since September, and even then it was a radio show so they set was a bit short. Hopefully with the HOB opening soon they will start playing in the city and not Worcester. So lame.

[chcougar1]

Too bad you don't like Anberlin. This could have been a civil discussion otherwise.

NICE!!! Some backup on Anberlin being good haha!

[The Personist]

NICE!!! Some backup on Anberlin being the best live band I've ever seen haha!

Fixed.

[TFTpower]

I saw anberlin at webster hall in NYC they were amaaaziinnngg, now im driving 4 hrz lol to see em in providence, suxxx, am I the only one who loves Anberlin AND BTT amazing voice live! totally blew me away at warped.

k, so chris, i again decided to check anberlin out again on their myspace. i really don't like his voice, but the music is really good. they don't sound as awful as i remember them though. i don't like their slower songs, but the other ones aren't terrible. i kinda like their newest single.

[kigginsthisprov]

I really wish this tour was coming to West Coast.

yay! i'm glad you gave them another chance.....i know his voice isnt for everyone but I'm glad you like some of their stuff...it is too bad you don't like his voice cuz they have some really good (my opinion of course) acoustic stuff.

When do you see this tour again? next weekend?

[kristanxmarie]

lancaster got sold out too. stoked for this on saturday!

[Xe1881]

[chcougar1]

i went and i got a setlist from the stage. i'll post it when i get home from school. absolutely amazing show.

I saw them tonight in Harrisonburg, VA and they started like 20 minutes late and played practically the same set except for "Retrace", "The Resistance", and "Fin". It was still a great show but there was something about Stephen's energy seemed off.

pretty good setlist, it's weird how they seemed to group songs from albums like that, a lot of NTFP at the beginning, then a lot of Cities, then New Surrender mixed in there. Judging by this setlist they definitly think that Cities is their best album, which it is.

[zubinmoosa]

Not that different from their previous tour.

[wheresadalia]

i could definitely hear his voice. i don't enjoy them on cd or live. at all. & actuallly i saw all of madina lake's set @ warped. i wouldn't say that they were amazing live, but they were good.

just gonna throw this out there....warped was definitely not madina lake at their best...i've seen them 10 times, and warped was good, but definitely not as good as the other times. so hopefully after their break the past couple months they'll be back to their best on this tour

[andrewa5]

wow the anberlin set-list is pretty tank!

[Mufasa23]

Does anyone have Madina Lake or Between The Trees setlist please?

[Mufasa23]

How much was merch?

What do you think of the new song ..I'm not really feeling it that much...it is like the singing is too slow for how fast the beat is or something:( Maybe it will grow on me. The gang vocals/chorus remind me of Stars though, which I do like.

[chcougar1]

wow the anberlin set-list is pretty tank!

It is almost EXACTLY the same as their fall tour set list haha

[zubinmoosa]

It is almost EXACTLY the same as their fall tour set list haha
Yeah, which makes me feel a little better about them skipping Toronto this time around. But I was happy with the set we got last tour, especially the *fin encore.

[chcougar1]

yeah i was bummed that they are doing a minor market tour this time only because i'm kinda friends with Madina Lake and I havent seen them in ages.

[Readyfuels]

Does anyone have Madina Lake or Between The Trees setlist please?

between the trees played A LOT of new stuff. but off "the story and the song" they played: "the way she feels", "words", "fairweather" and "white lines and red lights"

i'm familiar with any of madina lake's stuff so i can't help you there

[pollen]

Not that different from their previous tour.

I'm actually kind of disappointed, but it'll be a great show.

[zubinmoosa]

That's really cool. They put on a great live show, and they seem like really nice guys. When you do see them, tell them how pissed you are at how they delayed their album ;-)

it took me a couple times b/c it was so different than i was expecting..so at first i was like..ok
but then i couldn't stop listening. i love it
so hopefully it will grow on you
plus it's just supposed to be the tip of the iceberg, so i'm pumped for the cd

Does anyone have Madina Lake or Between The Trees setlist please?
i don't know exactly the order, and i may be missing a song, but according to a friend, madina lake play 2 new songs (never walk alone and another one), adalia, house of cards, here i stand, one last kiss, and true love

[kristanxmarie]

i went to the show in lancaster, pa tonight.

between the trees played, not in order:
the way she feels
fairweather
words
story of a boy
we can try
amazing you
white lines & red lights

i think that's it.

chris, i gave madina lake & anberlin a chance even though my friend ended up not coming. i thought ml was slightly better than i remember, and anberlin was still awful.

i was actually pretty stoked to hear a countless number of kids going up to wes & ryan saying, "holy shit, i LOVE [anberlin/madina lake] but you were better than every band here tonight!"

[whatwewant]

Yeah, which makes me feel a little better about them skipping Toronto this time around. But I was happy with the set we got last tour, especially the *fin encore.

same. i'm glad they probably won't bust out something like Naive Orleans or A Whisper and a Clamor, cause as much as i want to, i can't pull off going to london in the middle of the week w/ no car and getting back on time. boo, london.

[Readyfuels]

Thanks! =] how did their new stuff sound?

it was really really good. got me super pumped for a new album. they also played a little bit of "i get by with a little help of my friends" and everyone went nuts, it was so awesome.

[MarissaLorusso]

i'm going to the providence show tonight, i'm so pumped!
does anyone know how late the show is supposed to get out / when anberlin will go on? or could anyone who went to one of the previous shows let me know?

thanksss.

last night the doors opened at 6:30. anberlin went on at 9:30. show was over at 10:30. [and the show included one opening band, and then the 3 bands on the tour.]

[jusscali]

I was gonna go to the Provi show tonight to check out Between the Trees, but the weather is shitty and I don't feel like making the commute.

I've seen Anberlin twice, and although I'm a fan, they were atrocious live both times - I was severely disappointed. When is this new BTT stuff going to get recorded and released? Any news on that front?

haha hey....at least you thought Madina Lake was decent enough and good for you for staying for most of the show:) .....I'm sorry Anberlin wasn't good...maybe fans of Anberlin are just biased about their live show or maybe us knowing word for word singing along and being pumped up by the music makes us think they are better than they are live or something haha...i dunno now I'm just rambling...hope you had fun though!

[chcougar1]

That's really cool. They put on a great live show, and they seem like really nice guys. When you do see them, tell them how pissed you are at how they delayed their album ;-)

haha I text Nathan every once in awhile making sure the release date doesnt change again haha

[zubinmoosa]

haha I text Nathan every once in awhile making sure the release date doesnt change again haha
lol keep on doing that. I can't wait though: one of my top most anticipated of this year

[kristanxmarie]

never said that ml was decent. i said they were slightly better than i remember, meaning that they were bad. haha. but i did have fun. it's not possible to not have fun @ a between the trees show.

i believe they should be recording after this tour, but i'm not sure about releasing and such. a lot of people didn't like the new songs when they put them on their myspace for a short time, but i love them & sounded even better live [but i feel that they're always better live than on cd..]

They will be recording their second full length album in March! That is awesome except for now they wont play bamboozle =(. that makes me sad

[chcougar1]

Pfft whatever!!! I still say it is only because you don't like a certain band's type of music or a singer's voice....cuz Anberlin and Madina Lake are not bad haha

[The Personist]

Pfft whatever!!! I still say it is only because you don't like a certain band's type of music or a singer's voice....cuz Anberlin and Madina Lake are not bad haha

Anberlin is amazing.

End of story. Better than any band on this tour by far. No questions.

[kristanxmarie]

Pfft whatever!!! I still say it is only because you don't like a certain band's type of music or a singer's voice....cuz Anberlin and Madina Lake are not bad haha

i like madina lake. just...not live. and the singer of anberlin sounded completely different than on cd...but it was just as awful. whatever. i just really enjoyed so many people who had never heard of between the trees before coming up to them & telling them how they're the best band on the tour.

[adrianna-g]

Has anyone heard Madina Lake's new stuff? I heard its awesome!
I seriously can't wait until Attics to Eden comes out in March.
Also they are on Warped Tour....can't wait to go see them!

[rollerman4221]

Why the hell did you type in bigger txt?

anyways, BTT kills it live, I havent seen them without brad yet but im sure ryan picks up the slack

[kristanxmarie]

i thought they wouldn't be the same without brad, but the new guy [not even sure who he is...] is good. during their set i momentarily forgot about brad leaving. although i loved & miss brad, they're still as good as they've always been. =]

[nlcentralchamps]

Not that different from their previous tour.
Yeah, almost exact same set as the Orlando date.
Only difference I see is them leaving out symphony of blase.

Still loved that show though.

[mmgx]

I think the new guy's name is josh too


I really wish this was coming closer to me. Anberlin and Between The Trees are always amazing live.

[jenny_ell]

im going tonight :] i can't wait. the 2 hour drive is gonna suck though, but so worth it to see anberlin. and the set looks exactly like it was when they came through the states in the fall, so hopefully they will change it up tonight? =/ still an okay set though..

[Beedman]

Going to see this on Sunday. So excited.

[pollen]

Going to see this on Sunday. So excited.

I'm going to that one, too, but it's going to be hella freezing by the time Sunday comes around.
But it's sold out, which definitely means for a good time :)

[Beedman]

Yeah, unfortunately this warm weather won't keep up. It'll be so worth it though.

[pollen]

Relatively same setlists all around for the Edmonton date, except since Madina Lake didn't show, Radioforhelp was called in to play. Also, BTT got a longer set because of this and played some new stuff and A Time For Yohe, which was exciting.

[zaxophone]

ahh i wish they were coming to MD
