    If any Blink-182 fans attending the opening show of the band’s tour had been wondering whether the band had matured during their five-year breakup, they quickly had their answer. After the group’s second song, “Feeling This,” guitarist Tom DeLonge announced, apropos of nothing, “Motherf*** f*** $h!t.”

     

    “Good point,” agreed bassist Mark Hoppus.

     

    Playing the Joint at the Hard Rock Casino in Las Vegas last night, the band played 22 vintage Blink-182 songs in an hour and a half, seasoning the set with plenty of wisecracks. Hoppus congratulated the crowd at being present at the first real Blink-182 concert in five years—and then, following that thought to its logical conclusion, announced that the audiences at all the other shows on this tour could “suck it.”

     

    The especially good news: Travis Barker, who nearly died in a plane crash last September, is not only up and around, but remains a beast on the drums. He attacked his kit like it had insulted his mother—and for an encore, did a show-stopping solo to a hip-hop track while spinning around on a giant turntable. (In larger venues than the 1,400-person capacity Joint, Barker’s drum riser will also have a rigging system that allows it to levitate during his solo.)

     

    The set list was mostly drawn from the band’s last three albums (Enema of the State, Take Off Your Pants and Jacket, and Blink-182), and ranged from the pop-punk of “All the Small Things” to moodier material such as “Always.” The audience moshed and crowd-surfed like it was 1999, and shouted enthusiastically, if somewhat inchoately, at the stage. “We need

    an elected representative to speak for you,” suggested Hoppus. “When you all speak at once, it gets jumbled.”

     

    Set List:

    “Dumpweed”

    “Feeling This”

    “The Rock Show”

    “Easy Target”

    “What’s My Age Again?”

    “Obvious”

    “I Miss You”

    “Stay Together for the Kids”

    “Down”

    “Always”

    “Stockholm Syndrome”

    “First Date”

    Question: Wow! Torchwood: Children of Earth pretty much ascended to a BSG level of fraktacularness. Is there even the slightest chance that the franchise will continue? Personally, I can't see it coming back from the emotional shock at the end. --Amy

    Ausiello: First off, we're only up to Part Four here in the States, so watch the spoilers, missy. Second, yes, Torchwood will most likely live on, according to T-boss Russell T. Davies. "I’m fairly confident the series [will continue] in some shape or form," he says. "I will just sit down and invent new stories and characters -- that’s what I’ve spent my entire life doing." Wait a sec, new characters? Jack will continue to be the show's central hero, right? "Oh, I would think so," he says. "I would hope so. He’s absolutely fundamental to Torchwood." (For more on the emotional shock that Amy referred to above, come back here tonight after Part Four airs. Trust me.)

    Tw@ts.... I'm betting they've got bloody 3 cinemas set aside for Harry Potter or Tranformers though..... <_<

     

    by the looks of things harry potter had like 3 screens.

     

    it's like the film industry wants me to break the law and illegally download films.

    When you’re putting together the set list for this tour is it primarily your biggest hits or are you mixing new stuff in there?

     

    We were going to mix in a new song; I don’t know if we are anymore. I think we’re really going to concentrate on the songs people know already and get back in the studio when we get back home and start working on new stuff again. This tour is really about us coming back together as a band. Then when we get back home we’ll take the next step forward. We’re not going to hit people with a bunch of new songs they don’t know. I hate that when I go to concerts.

    Influenced by everything from old school metal to current pop artists, FACT, Vagrant's new signings from Japan, show us that there is still some originality left in song writing. Using a combination of metallic thrash riffs and infectious pop hooks, the band has created a unique blend of pop rock. Some might call it emo, some might call it pop, some even think it’s metal. But whatever it is, you can purchase the physical CD here before the UK release date of August 3rd.

     

    Tracklisting:

    1. Paradox

    2. Los Angeles

    3. A Fact Of Life

    4. Chain

    5. Reborn

    6. Purple Eyes

    7. Lights Of Vein
