Ive been a recording tech for 5 years and have worked with some pretty made names, But the reason people show up to live is to hear a different spin on their songs. The album verison is more complex, but you have to give credit since most acts nowadays are just people miming over their tracks. Which gas no artistic integrity at all.
what are u talking about again?
i seen tom and mark and thought of blink.
and if ur talking about them;
tom’s fav band is jimmy eat world
and they played at his wedding.
I’d say Hear You Me is the hardest to perform live because it’s just so layered and sounds so perfect on the CD that a live version with just these 4 doesn’t really work so well. unfortunately.
do you guys only listen to music for the lyrics ect? blink 182 are about image and instrumental sound (mostly drums) not lyrical songs. tbh jimmy eat world are good. there stuff is hard to sing live. anywayz think of punk bands (not punk rock but meh) like the sex pistols. good singers? no. but people loved them
can sombody tell me why are you talking about blink 182? yeah its one of, if not the the best punk rock bands around, but isn’t this a jimmy eat world video? anyway jimmy eat world rocks and its one of the few bands that play as good live as on studio
go eat a truck made out of shit ass hole. blink 182 is made of three talented musicens, maybe tom does sing like shit live… but didnt you notice thats only been since his back injury you fucking turd. before that, ill agree, he wasetn amazing, but he was great. and mark is fucking fine live. and yes travis is a fucking god on drums, but thry’re all good musicens, to create songs such as dumpweed, feeling this, dysentary gary, dammit, first date, the rock show, adams song… and much more.bitch

Out of all their songs, I think Sweetness is the hardest to preform live. And yet they pull it off so nicely.
A+ Jimmy Eat World. :]

it seems like every band video i watch someone is saying “one of the only bands that sounds as good live as on the album.”
there aren’t only 3 bands who can actually do what they’re supposed to do haha.

This is a video abt Jimmy Eat World. If you got comments abt Blink 182 or anyone else go find a video by them and comment trash abt them there.

tom and mark KNOW they suck, look at interviews with them. they just want to have fun, and make music. that’s how it should be.
