Blink-182 | M+M's - Wishing Well, Live Soundcheck, Independence, MO 3/30/2017

[@marcfreeman2274]

Mark is the only person in the band who was a member when m&ms was written. Weird.

[@swishey1775]

He was the only one who was there when it was written 😒

[@thewalkthroughmusic]

Not with skiba the guy is so terrible he ruins the songs

[@alkaline_enema]

Matt have improved a lot in all songs, i'm so proud of him

[@ballinglikechoji6558]

Alkaline Enema I see you're a fellow AK3 fan... It's a treat to run into another one since it seems a lot of people thought Matt came out of thin air and joined blink lol.

[@innitthough712]

As far as it's going, Matt's improving greatly. He sings Wishing Well better than he used to, and plays the guitar on it great. Only issue I see here is that he's a bit rusty on M&M's, which is fine, it's a difficult song. All I really want though is for Alkaline Trio to be back!

[@liamomalley9171]

M+ms is honestly one of my personal favorites

[@HiMyNameisFrank1711]

Well.. I kinda know how Matt feelt being in a band that has so much legacy, and to look all the fans and see how dissapointed they were. 6/8 was the best song to describe how everyone of them felt when their fans turn the back on them.

[@Manfredzik1]

Holy shit :DDD That vintage live ending of "M+M's"

[@zacefren1575]

I was there in soundcheck!

[@lk182]

Zac Efren so was I ;)

[@zacefren1575]

lk182 no way.

[@kennypruchnicki8845]

I think Matt's picking style on blink songs gives them a breath of fresh air.

[@lucygray5389]

I want them to play M+Ms on the uk tour this summer so bad

[@jareposting]

Matt is still funky on the intro to M&M's, but I really love the renditions they did to the songs.

[@Manfredzik1]

It sounds like in the actual song

[@2010Greendayfan]

Chriis no, it definitely does not sound like the original. The beginning is not played correctly by Matt...

[@JamesOttman]

@@2010Greendayfan he played it right

[@greendude608]

@@JamesOttman lmao no he didn't, he can't seem to get the hammer ons and pull offs correctly any time he plays it

[@ryanp4616]

Can you play it?

[@ootseepootsee7888]

No doubt Matt is a great guitarist and singer/ songwriter, but him and tom have very different influences and play styles. It's like eating an apple pie and complaining it doesn't taste like a blueberry pie

[@nathanielcava4128]

Yeah Ik people Need to chill with it

[@isetmfriendsofire]

"Wishing Well" is the only song so far that they aren't nailing with Matt.

[@isetmfriendsofire]

@Taylor Gwaltney When I saw them live it sounded great

[@thewalkthroughmusic]

@@isetmfriendsofire was that back when tom was in the band?

[@isetmfriendsofire]

@@thewalkthroughmusic no

[@tamasmelo6880]

The 1994 m+ms sounds much better much ,more go for it, more feeling, the rythm was insane in that time! The energy that guys put in to the crownd was absolutely incredible! No ofence i love this guys and i have lot of respect for them!

[@dashgo512]

I like the way that Skiba plays wishing well a lot better than the original version.

[@royortiz7550]

dashgo512 lol what a joke

[@kleinkaufman8940]

It actually was dude, Skiba made the song his and the bridge was a lot better than any Tom played, its just facts...

[@leonardoramirezguardado2764]

Facts hahahahahahahaha good one

[@kleinkaufman8940]

Yaceen Zaaf mmh nope, you are wrong and what you said has nothing to do with the comment above, Dan has a far more technical and tight style of bass playin and nos voice is a tad weaker than Marks , not to mention his songwriting , at least what ive heard of him is a lot more emo and mellow than Marks , Alina is better than Tom at some things , i didnt said he was better overall , he just plays wishing well better and is a 1000 Times better singer...

[@kleinkaufman8940]

In my oppinion, those songs are far to vocally dificult for Tom, if he had trouble singing songs like Stay or Dumpweed, then he has no chance of pulling off songs like Cynical or Left alone, probably Sober would be ok for him, but for the rest of them, he is fucked, hed probably had to drop all of them half a step or a whole step....

[@theempire00]

thanks! how much did you pay to attend?

[@heyitsmekeeks]

He played the into Way better!!

[@tarcisiobarbosa3024]

Da hora Blink 182

[@leoagung5947]

miss tom 🙁

[@saffronthurkettle6795]

I love Matt’s sunglasses they really suit him but Mark’s glasses don’t really suit him haha

[@kyle-9203]

"Sister in the bath"

[@saffronthurkettle6795]

I must admit that whenever Matt sings blink-182 songs he sounds EXACTLY the same but he doesn’t when he performs with alkaline trio how he can make his voice sound so flat but with tone is weird but wonderful he can have some shit performances and some great ones and this one wasn’t too bad of wishing well

[@saffronthurkettle6795]

Well Mark’s voice has got shallower when he sings m&m’s but that’s not a bad thing and Matt’s guitar playing here is really good can’t really fault him here as much as I’m not really fan of him

[@WinkBand]

That bridge tho

[@baileyclifford9958]

i like matt but its not the same without tom, there are some things that tom does better just because tom was part of making most of the songs they play

[@keebaeklim]

Let matt play guitar and tom be on vocals. Best of both worlds

[@joaomongesoria2762]

Wishing well was nice. I think the album version is better but was no bad

[@juliojuncioni9020]

Plus44 wasnt so good, but the new blink album is a masterpiece. to me, matt bring us a new energy for blink songs, im not talking about the energy in live performances, cause those guys are getting older. its a normal situation in life. jagger, a monster, doesnt have that energy like 1969. people, i like another band called helloween, they vhanged 3 times their vocal leader, and that was amazing, now i have many songs to listen with great compostions in the last 20 yeqrs, life and shows must go on

[@rylandcook5301]

WISHING WELL??

[@Shadowz227]

From the album "Neighbours" the last album with Tom.

[@bijibadness]

why are they doing "wishing well"?? that's Tom's song, man. that's so odd-i figured Tom wrote the whole thing.

[@kennymccoy662]

Bijinius Cross if it was on a blink album they can play it

[@PandaTheGreen]

It's blink's song, not Tom's song

[@lobobjr]

Bijinius Cross it's like them playing Not Now lol, that was Tom's baby

[@RivalZSS]

It’s weird hearing them do anything from Neighborhoods idk why :/

[@Korzo_johannez]

It does sounds better, but I'm surprised that Matt plays "Wishing well" wrong, he plays it with fifths all the time, I mean, he just needs to watch a video of Tom playing it so he could realize it is wrong

[@Undergroundglitch]

Skiba is a good singer, just not as good as Tom on guitar

[@degrassi420]

Tom played the same riffs for years, Skiba just needs some time to practice and get them down. Tom was pretty bad at guitar at the start.

[@Undergroundglitch]

Good point. I just feel like Tom's guitar playing in Blink is more technical and thought out than Matt's guitar playing in Alkaline Trio, but Matt's vocal harmony is amazing in Trio. But I'm a huge fan of Trio at the same time.

[@saffronthurkettle6795]

Matt went a bit deep with that guitar didn’t he? Trying to make blink-182 sound like alkaline trio that’s not cool but at least he got the lyrics to wishing well right

[@saffronthurkettle6795]

Sorry Matt but his voice too flat for wishing well and Tom’s voice is better I know Tom wrote it but not downing on Matt at least he’s not screwing the song up

[@djalexander4099]

Why can't Matt play the m+ms intro right? I can. Why can't he.

[@2010Greendayfan]

Doyle Alexander it’s so fucking easy to play yet somehow Matt manages to mess it up... don’t understand it

[@kiwiangeldust6912]

BenSkiv98 Because it’s not as easy as you think it is. Plus they never really play this song live for a while.

[@2010Greendayfan]

Keanu Paler that’s where you’re wrong it’s incredibly simple to play. I can play it no problem.

[@kiwiangeldust6912]

BenSkiv98 Still they never played this song for a long time
