blink-182 - "Always" Live at Coachella 2023 Main Stage [4K] First Time Live since 2017

[@gregclarkreasons]

This might be the best they've ever sounded.

[@justinTime077]

Agreed, but Tom doesn’t need auto tune

[@elmanolo182]

Would It be: 1. They got a new audio ing. AND new equip? 2. It's because the coachella hardware?

[@justinTime077]

@@elmanolo182 maybe number 1 but almost never number 2

[@craig2196]

Definitely the healthiest! (Which is the most important thing)

[@RobertIDK]

I thought this song was the best performance of the night. The last minute or so is absolutely perfect. Really hoping Coachella posts the official version

[@dylanburton4955]

Tuned into the livestream and they sounded so good

[@SvenK936]

You obviously never heard them in the 90's... THAT was good. This is just artificial

[@Sometimesthingsgetcomplicated]

So good!! I'm so glad we caught the livestream

[@adidkjf]

they sound so good live and i dont care if its autotune or with backed vocals... and the end of the day the experiance its the most important thing and its obviously still a live experiance...

@@JDC701 autotune is literally a pitch correction tool

[@clifftonl-vuitton2770]

@@JDC701 autotune IS pitch correction. It’s just set to a reasonable, not robotic retune speed.

[@craig2196]

for Coachella it's still pretty raw vocals.

[@BinkyBitch]

Tom has always use pitch correction with his recent Angels and airwaves shows. Which honestly I don’t mind them using auto tune when they have been without it for years.

[@ph-fi7qo]

@@JDC701 there's no "all autotune", Autotune is the name of one software, by Antares, just like Melodyne is the pitch correction by Celemony but the later can't be used live in real time unlike Autotune. You're probably thinking this isn't autotune 'cause you're used to the robotic voice that's common in rap and that's why you and many others here are so defensive to say "it's not autotune it's pitch correction" lmao Even if Tom isn't using exactly the software Autotune, he's still be using other stuff with the exactly same purpose.

[@darbs3168]

It crazy how amazing they sound

As soon as Tom said “Dad” I started losing it. Such a great performance, glad I watched it live

[@saffronthurkettle6795]

Couldn’t agree more Tom is the heart and soul of blink-182 and the humour too he’s by far the funniest in the band and it was basically him who formed the band too

[@gersonmurillo2014]

1000% agree whit u, my friend. @@saffronthurkettle6795

[@saffronthurkettle6795]

@@gersonmurillo2014 I just don’t think that Matt skiba’s voice ever fitted with the vibe of blink-182 he’s more a singer of heavier music than Tom is. Yes Tom can be serious when he wants to but he’s better at the light hearted songs than Matt is and I think he’s a very versatile musician in his playing whereas Matt is just as creative as a musician but his playing of older blink-182 songs just wasn’t there

[@gersonmurillo2014]

@@saffronthurkettle6795 I think that this break from the band helped Tom, to come back stronger than ever, he needed it, to come back stronger. I never liked matt.

[@joseessencialista3957]

This is amazing ! Soft Auto-Tune in Tom’s voice include, seriously amazing !

[@AJREMINGTON85]

i was there. literally not too far up front from where this footage is taken, thank you for putting these up so i could remember how amazing this was

[@judahzlouf28]

poor tom.... doesnt matter of ur king of the world when your thinking of your dad... my dad is still alive and i felt that more than anything - such a wonderful person i love you guys thanks for 25 years of life.

[@hunglikeaslave6793]

My dads alive and was my best friend until I turned 32. Found out our entire relationship was covert mental abuse when I learned about NPD. I tried to bring it to him and he literally abandoned me. It’s been over a year now. He couldn’t handle looking at himself and threw away an entire lifetime. Like I never existed.

[@trentbosnic]

This song is about making love to a girl, he's just making a joke about having sex with his Dad, it's not the sobby shit you are interpreting it as - this is blink 182, not Adele.

[@ronabuelo1827]

Best Tom has ever sounded and I first saw them at the Pop Disaster tour in 2002.

[@alessiomolinatti]

We can't hear Travis's china cymbal, it happened also in the other Coachella show, I don't understand why their techs don't mike it better

[@arielbordon5990]

best band, worst audience

[@brianrodriguez6897]

Why I hate going to big music festivals. Bunch of casuals.

[@Nickgantz12]

That’s because Coachella is a status symbol. You get shorter sets and it’s viewed as an “appearance” not a full fledged show. They only played like an hour when normally they played 2.5

[@jessicamurtaugh6678]

​@@Nickgantz12 I heard Mark didn't want to originally do the set cause Frank oceans set was 2 hrs and he didn't want the 2 hours. Every blink show that I've been to is about 90 minutes. They have a lot of banter. But I think Mark is still in a recovering stage and with Travis finger. Maybe playing longer sets isn't in their plan in general.

[@vandiilham6278]

[@WhiteWolfTechGaming]

Both Coachella performances have been the best Tom has done after their very first break up

[@nickschiller1080]

He sounded great at all the Angels and Airwaves shows in 2019 and 2021 and those songs are way harder to sing. Love the shoutout to his dad, RIP TOMS POPS!

[@jayfron6012]

Absolutely agree. Went to their tour in 2009 and they were not this good

[@Codgerism]

I like he's sing in his old raspy Blink voice more now.

[@dog8438]

I'd argue Tom has sounded this good since 2019 for AVA but this is absolutely the best he's sounded in *blink* since 2004

[@nickschiller1080]

@dog8438 Saw AVA 2019 here in Detroit and 2021 and they killed it both times and Tom sounded great. Thought he put alot into it to get over the divorce and to deal with it better and he admitted and said" Damn Detroit your the best crowd yet, all kissing and hugging and dancing and shit, even back in 2021 he said yo yo shut the fuck up to the band for a sec I just wanted to see if they killed it like last time we were here but we always put it down in the 313!

[@user-vc5rp7nf8f]

Yep, instead of Frank Ocean

[@AllbeeHivezChristianAllbee]

He also said during the set, “You can’t do what we do. You didn’t grow up playing in a band like we did.” I think someone at the front was grating his nerves and he had to school them. 🤟🏽

[@justinTime077]

Tom has sex with guys is canon and he knows it now

[@AssimDissePedro]

Tom’s voice without auto tune must be so fuc*ed up bro But at the end of the night the experience the public had is more important than a performance with autotune

[@bobbydrex5268]

I think it's just cuz he has to sing his old blink stuff. He rarely uses if at all when he performs his AvA stuff

[@Littlethelion]

It’s not. I saw him play AVA’s first show in years back in 2019 at a 200 capacity venue and he was literally singing 5 feet from me. He’s dialing it in way more than he ever did before. Not sure why they have it on here, but still.
