distinctlydustin Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Doing a reunion tour two years after a farewell tour is NOTHING BUT A CASHGRAB. Spencer said in an interview about Sleepwave that he started the first SW tour with $.37 in his bank account. We all know Sleepwave wasn't too successful. Drugs are a hell of a drug.

TophertheAlien Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 That's terrible if they aren't going to press these albums separately. The whole tour seems like a huge cash grab anyway. Regular tickets are $33 without any of the fees. I haven't paid over $30 for a concert in a really long time, maybe ever. Shit like the "only get the vinyl if you get the VIP tickets" pisses me off. They're basically saying I don't give two shits about you, just give us your $$.Idk where you live but I'm in Miami and most shows here are at least $30-$40, maybe $25 for electronic or rap.

ajismetal Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 You'd think since they're so fucking broke they'd wanna press the shit outta this. Pretty sure the only broke one is Spencer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
throughbeingcruel Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Idk where you live but I'm in Miami and most shows here are at least $30-$40, maybe $25 for electronic or rap.Usually between $15-$30 after fees anywhere between Louisville, KY, and Indianapolis, IN. I'm directly between the two, usually favor Louisville. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rcafilm Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Doing a reunion tour two years after a farewell tour is NOTHING BUT A CASHGRAB. *3 years I know everybody likes to bitch about this stuff and I get it to a degree, but think about them as human beings. Aaron and Spencer are the only ones really doing music anymore. Aaron's music is successful but very different. Spencer's is... not nearly as successful as UO. You've spent a decade of your life as part of a creative vanguard making awesome music that people flip their shit for. Then you spend 3 years in civilian life either doing normal shit or doing music that really isn't as well received or is drastically different from what you spent your glory years doing. Somebody says "hey let's do a quick reunion tour for our two most well-received records and probably make some decent money while living a small taste of our old life", you're gonna be like "sign me the fuck up." I don't care how fulfilled they may be in their current careers, you're hard pressed to find a career musician who isn't itching to relive the rockstar experience every few years.

They shouldn't have called the last one a farewell tour in my opinion. Everyone should've learned that lesson from the 70s/80s bands.

I'm sure blink-182 never planned to play together, but they didn't make a huge deal of it when they went on hiatus. We made that a huge deal haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RyanSmithers Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 Thrice was very explicitly clear that they were not breaking up and would be back and the farewell tour was just "farewell" for now. They said that over and over again. It's funny people still act like they broke up... and Alexisonfire...and Thrice and...well those two come to mind.

TophertheAlien Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 I was supposed to go to the St. Petersburg show but it appears sold out now. can anyone maybe snag me a copy of the vinyl? ill rein-verse and give a little extra. I'm going to the Orlando show but idk if they'll have any left - if there are I'd be happy to do the same for someone else! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Banned User] Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 When I go to the MD date I'll try and snag an extra copy for the board. I got the early access thing to mercy so I assume there will be some records leftover if they're limited to each date Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MayCauseDeath Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 This is a secret link they sent to peoople who purchased the VIp ticket but it works if you haven't but it's supposed to be a secret link. You can get the vinyl only for 40$ http://underoath.merchline.com/products/rebirth-tour-edition-exclusive-dtgl-x-tocs-x-2xlp-vinyl?mc_cid=df696a750c&mc_eid=7a9489793f Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
