Man it's killing me that I can't make it to this show. Law school final at 8:30 the next morning. Luckily I was able to see them in Houston last July. My guess the tickets aren't selling because it was just jazz fest and it's on a Tuesday.

It's a shame a nostalgic band like Blink can't fill up a small place like the Arena. If they were touring with a bigger band like A Day To Remember you can bet it would sell out.

I was at the Houston show in July too

Bought a VIP meet and greet this go around

That show in Houston was incredible, 2 of my favorite bands. ADTR was my first concert back in 2010 and they were the band that I became a huge fan of while blink was on hiatus.

Me too.
I discovered the self-titled album in 2007 and was hooked.
The reunion in 2009 was like Jesus coming back for me.

I'm really starting to like Skiba's influence on the new music. The California Deluxe album is going to be deep and darker.

I know how that feels, bro. I had to skip it, Jazz Fest, All Them Witches, and The Sword as well due to law school and poverty. Man, being a broke law student sucks.

Maybe if Tom was playing with them I'd be in but I'm not going see a karaoke version of the band

I wish I could make this show, but I have a graduation to go to tonight. I saw them in 2001 and 2011, so I do have that under my belt.

Assuming that available seating chart is accurate, woof, that's bad. Even for a Tuesday night, at UNO, after Jazz Fest, weak openers, that's bad. I'll be there tonight, which is my first time seeing them since 7th grade (2001), but the potential lack of crowd has dampened my excitement.

Yeah, Damn...that is pretty awful. There are thousands of tickets left...seems less than half are sold so far. I don't know why they aren't offering two for ones or something.

I would also be there, if Tom was still in the band.

They're too expensive for a Tuesday night on the herls of several expensive festivals and concerts. Their target demo is maxed out.

They still kill it for a bunch of 40 year olds. Was an awesome show with lots of energy.
