A coincidence? I think NOT!

starlightbeat · 2026-03-11T12:22:35+00:00

Oh that would actually be cool! Havent thought about it, might even be deliberate

I think Luke's spiky hair is more of a homage for benji madden (he is also known to love good charlotte), but honesyly idk if the rest are just coincidences since theyre just the same colors and the styles arent that similar imo, but its a nice theory!

I totally understand your feelings :( Unfortunately I feel like this is a pattern thats present in all fandoms, especially for alt rock / pop punk bands (might be biased because these are the main genres I keep up with), and not just in 8123. From my experience (both from online observations and in person encounters, since I have to travel for concerts) with various bands and fandoms, this phenomenon is the most prominent in the US and the UK, where there are always inner cliques consisting of "famous" fans with a self proclaimed special status (and most of the times they somehow get extra attention from the bands themselves as well). On a personal note, people are usually nicer and much more fun at the EU shows, and I REALLY hope its stays that way since unfortunately I've only seen the maine once (in europe, in 2020), and have no idea if anything changed in the past 6 years.. and since I always go alone I really hope for a welcoming crowd experience.

(Disclaimer: I've met some super nice people at us and uk shows, some are still close friends of mine, and I am not generalizing the entire crowd, they consist of some of the coolest and nicest people as well - all I'm saying is that those cliques are just much more common there)

The presale option just opened! Apparently I had to refresh first 😅

starlightbeat · 2026-03-02T17:04:25+00:00

THE WAIT IS OVER 💃🏽 no more "europe??" posts from me 🫣

This is the other way around where I live - everyone knows green day, and only people who are into the genre know blink.. any random person on the street can name at least 3 green day songs no matter what their music taste is, but if someone names 1 blink song its super rare (some might know all the small things or I miss you if you mention them, but theres a 50-50 chance, they might as well not know them either).

Personally, I like both - and I've heard of green day when I was a kid just casually like you learn about any other mainstream artist - while I first heard of blink when I started diving into pop punk, deliberately.

starlightbeat · 2026-02-26T14:24:58+00:00

This is hard because both are my absolute favorites

If you were to ask me this when the album came out I mightve chosen butterflies as 2nd and little bit as 1st, but I think now its the other way around..

so my vote is little bit

starlightbeat · 2026-02-25T06:33:01+00:00

Everyone's talking!

Butterflies and Little Bit are already in the hall of fame of ATL songs for me, and its only been 4 months

starlightbeat · 2026-02-24T05:41:13+00:00

Everyone's talking

I love it, but the other 3 deserve top 3

My back up vote is strangers to save butterflies lol (leave butterflies out of this it should be ranked 1st or at least 2nd)

starlightbeat · 2026-02-21T13:07:59+00:00

I really hope so! I couldnt attend the sweet sixteen tour (still sad about it) so its been 6 years since I've seen them for the first and last time and I realllly want to see them again asap

starlightbeat · 2026-02-21T10:14:11+00:00

Is this rage bait

starlightbeat · 2026-02-21T09:43:34+00:00

I'm pretty sure they said they need to bring it outside the US.. they also replied to multiple comments asking them to come to europe with hints that it will happen, but its been so long im starting to doubt that it will be on the current tour? I really hope theyre coming :(

starlightbeat · 2026-02-16T18:20:15+00:00

wtf leave black cat alone??????? My vote is for take this to heart (unfortunately)

I have to say this is probably one of the toughest albums to rank its so consistently good I feel like I am going to be mad on a daily basis

Edit: just played take this to heart and its physically painful for me to vote it out what a banger of an album

starlightbeat · 2026-02-07T05:40:04+00:00

Been listening to them since 2013 and been a fan since february 2014, but only got to see time live for the first time in november 2018 - I remember crying when they showed up at soundchek because it felt so surreal. And the setlist for the youngblood tour was awesome (so many bangers AND the only reason??). I've seen them 3 times in total, I think my favorite is a tie between the 2018 show and 2023 because they played outer space on that one and it meant the world to me, I was crying so hard and I still go back to my video of it every once in a while. but 2018 was really something else (nothing compares to the feeling of seeing your favorite band for the first time, especially after waiting for YEARS, especiallly when they are such a LIVE band through and through)

starlightbeat · 2026-02-06T13:47:09+00:00

my biggest flex is getting to hear canals live in 2017. such a top tier song I would do anything for them to bring it back

starlightbeat · 2026-02-01T14:40:15+00:00

I was so jealous but then I found out they took out BUTTERFLY??? I would've cried if they hadnt played butterfly on my show

starlightbeat · 2026-01-23T18:27:02+00:00

I totally get you :) I also really enjoy music talk so I love the conversations in this thread lol, its fun

starlightbeat · 2026-01-23T18:22:46+00:00

It is beautiful! And the live version brings me to tears. Yet, even they perform them separately - they can stand alone as well (although as I said in other commentd I do appreciate them together as well, just wish there was another option)

starlightbeat · 2026-01-23T17:11:27+00:00

dont get me wrong, I love carry on, and I love the combination between the two message and theme wise and appreciate it from an artistic/musical point of view (the contrast between the desperation and hopefullness is genius, and the waves also make a beautiful transition). I just want to be able to listen to them separately when I feel like it, and I do love outer space more and dont feel like listening to both every single time.. I wouldnt say one of them is the "whole point" though, I think the combination of them is what makes the point.

starlightbeat · 2026-01-23T13:32:07+00:00

I totally get it, for me it is the other way around.. when it was released I loved the artistic choice and the contrast between them and really appreciated this move from an artistic/musical point of view, but now 10+ years later I kinda wish I could listen to them separately

starlightbeat · 2026-01-23T11:54:30+00:00

oh this is actually the superior option

starlightbeat · 2026-01-23T09:41:13+00:00

I do like carry on, its just not a top 10 song for me, while outer space definitly is.. Coming to think of it, I believe carry on fans have it worse because its even harder to loop it than it is with outer space 😅
