@Nick Jarvis after 2003 they dusted it off here and there

[@Joshzilla6667]

No matter what happened with them, Brand New got me through some of the hardest and most alone times I’ve ever had in my life. It feels good to not be alone when depression is so isolating. Thank you Brand New.

[@tylerzane7579]

Josh Greene agreed 100% and if Jesse actually did do what he was accused of (the initial accuser is a known liar and was 24 when Skype came out) that was a long time ago and he isn’t that guy anymore I know at 30 I’m not who I was in my early 20s

[@waitandbleed47]

The crowd chanting with "I am not your friend, I am not your lover, I am not your family" made my blood run cold. I had to stop what I was doing and replay it so I could feel the goosebumps again! What I would give to be there, in person, for that moment.

[@SayKyleNotCow]

I got to see them 3 times. It was unreal going to their shows as far as crowd participation. The only band that I’ve seen that ever came close was Coheed & Cambria. Brand New had such a cult following they would sell out in minutes and never got significant airplay. I remember getting tickets to a Friday show in Orlando and they sold out within 30 minutes, a friend who worked at a radio station hit me up to see if I needed tickets and told her I was good, she said they sold so fast they added a Saturday show and gave me tickets to that show. They played totally different sets, so it was amazing getting to go to both shows. Unfortunately we probably will never get to see them again… 😩

[@Mcgroofer]

I was there at this specific show. The last one they ever had in Chicago. The crowd was magnetic and I go back to this video to relive it.

[@abrimfulofasha]

​@Rawgangsta he didn't Diddle kids. They were 16, and he was 20. 16 is legal in the UK. He hasn't been sentenced, which means he didn't touch them. People blow the scenario way out of proportion. Yes it was slightly wrong, but he didnt touch them and was young himself and naive. He apologised and went into depression which means he knew he was in the wrong and obviously won't do it again as he's grown up... hopefully.

Damn do I love this band so much. Discovering them in 7th grade, listening to them all throughout high school, and even now at 29 belting out their songs on long drives with no destinations is a gift. I didn't get to see them on their farewell tour, but damn do I love this video right here. I can't listen to Soco the same way again after this tour. Play Crack The Sky is my favorite song by them and that I cannot even listen to because of my association of the song. Jesse, your lyrics crush me when I don't want them to.

[@claystablein9739]

Play Crack The Sky is amazing.

[@samschiller3813]

Bro I feel you on two counts: 1. Play Crack is the only song of theirs to make me really breakdown 2. I drive doordash for a living and i usually defer to a brand new album when I'm out of entertainment. Keep fighting the good fight brother

[@matthewbabij37]

55:15 Where Jesse talks about "Same Logic" being in the dead center of the last album and how its one of his favorite pieces of music that the band made. Honestly That short clip of him talking (that I would have NEVER ever heard otherwise) added such weight and importance to me understanding Brand New and why I feel so connected to thier music.

Yea it sucks but there’s a badass factor of saying this is the last album then bowing out. It sucks they didn’t finish the tour over some 15 year old shit. In my opinion every album was better than the previous. I think science fiction is my favorite, sort of grew up with them as they grew up musically.

[@Mrocean2011]

I went to the same concert in Dallas one month later… it was the last show Brand New ever played…. Breaks my heart but I’m so fn glad I was there. I would do literally anything / pay anything to get to see Brand New play again… A couple friends and I have even discussed starting a pool to bring them back to Dallas. They always ended their tours in Dallas, insane fan base here. They could sell out any show in minutes if they would be willing… people connect with BN so much deeper than any other band. I APPRECIATE BRAND NEW.

[@Bang-vy6td]

Yep... Been listening since the beginning... First show was a Drive Thru Records Showcase at The (mutherfucking) Globe East in Milwaukee in Summer 2002. The lineup was Open Hand, Finch, Brand New, Starting Line. To commemorate the last show of the tour, members of The Benjamins and Brand New purchased whole, gutted fish from a local market and rushed the stage during Starting Lines set and literally beat the band members with dead fish. Pieces exploded into the 400 past- capacity crowd and the frontman ended up wearing one of the fish as a hat for the remainder of the set. I believe it was retaliation for Brand News van getting completely covered in vaseline during their set... Their albums got better, their tours did not... Soco at this show here and the ending speaks to me too, I'm the old washed up rocker taking his kid to shows now and always reminding everyone it will never be as good as it was

[@ceetee110]

It seems like he talked to his fans through his lyrics from time to time, the most notable example in my mind being Can't Get It Out. Always hit me right in the gut when I noticed it. What a ride. I'm happy I was able to be a part of it in some way. Guess that's what I've gotta focus on.
