[flyersfan900]

They better hit up VA during this fall/winter tour and they'd better bring some ballin ass setlists

That's one way to put it. Another way is:

At my show they played 9 songs from Uplifter, 8 songs from Greatest Hits, and 4 songs not on Uplifter or Greatest Hits (and no songs from DToM).

The way I see it we got to see 9 new songs live. And they still rocked hard. Awesome show.

[Tehshewz]

Thank god no DTOM this tour.
My show rocked

[coast2coast]

Right on. Seeing the show live just reinforced my appreciation for uplifter. I was on the fence until seeing my second show of the tour. It was a pretty good setlist all in all. I always want to hear Homebrew on tour though. That song should be a standard.

great album live

[Jorge]

great album live

Really? I thought the complete opposite. The music sounded great, but a lot of the choruses seemed to fall flat. Never Ending Summer is the one that immediately comes to mind. Tim's solo in that song is dirty and has a great energy that feels like it is building to something epic, but then comes in that chorus. Needless to say, I was left underwhelmed. It's like getting a blowjob and right before you cum, you get a half assed hand job. I DON'T PLAY THAT SHIT.

Uplifter live was like the album. There were great moments that were unfortunately overshadowed by the awkward vocal performances and radio like arrangements. They also neglected the best songs off the album for some crazy unknown reason.

This tour definitely put 311 into the guilty pleasure category for myself.

[coast2coast]

Damn Jorge, you take yourself way too seriously. You sound like you would be a drag to go to a concert with. hahaha.

hahahaha. And you are?

I actually don't take myself too seriously, but I admittedly take the things I love too seriously. Music as a whole being one of these things, along with the band that led me toward my passion for rhythm.

No worries. I know it can get that way.

It used to be. I saw "Homebrew" in my first 10 shows strait, and a few more after that over the years.

I think Jorge is one of the coolest people around. A bit too harsh on musicians sometimes, but he has his reasons. (:

[Jorge]

Thanks, Snipe. I'm pretty keen on your existence, too!

[coast2coast]

haha. No need for everyone one to rally to his defense. I'm sure Jorge is cool. I've seen his other posts and quite frankly I would really enjoy discussing some of the stuff he has a problem with regarding the new cd and tour. Jorge I just wish you would elaborate sometimes about the stuff you are talking about. I know I am guilty too of just rattling off a one line response especially if I'm tired.

You said there were other moments of good music in most of the songs but apparantly they fall short as a whole. If you get the time maybe we could go song by song and kind of break it down. I would really enjoy something like that and I think it could produce some decent conversation as the boards seem kind of slow these days.

Second: What do you mean by "radio like arrangements" on the 09 tour. Are you saying it was basically a greatest hits tour or does their setlist fall in the category of "radio friendly."

P.S. I'm just busting your balls dude I know how people get about their favorite band but I just kind of give them a bye because I don't want to criticize to the point where I don't enjoy anything.
