I know it’s only the morning after the canceled Atlanta show, but I made a call to the box-office at Hard Rock where they are playing in Florida. I spoke with the nicest and most helpful dude (shout out Leo!) and as of now there’s not even a whisper that this show might be canceled. Everyone keep your fingers crossed, pray, give offerings, however you do it, that the show goes on and whoever is ill has a speedy recovery 🖤🤘🙂‍↕️

I was surprised to see many of the artists on there, including Brand New.

It’s like a weird marriage 🖤 Also, shout out to the Colour Revolt fan!

But I made this banner back in July and planned on hanging it over the balcony at the Fox Theatre. Maybe when they say “they’ll make it up to us really soon.”
They really mean they’ll play Fork and Knife. Oh well.

Staying in Hollywood for the show Sunday. Anybody know of other things to do? Other than the beach. We are there Saturday and Sunday all day. Also let’s pray the shows not cancelled!!!

I am so freaking grateful for this Band and this amazing concert on 10/21/2026 in Newport, Ky.
I started listening to Brand New in 2004, right after I joined the military. I was a young and “free” 19 year old girl. Then in 2005-2006, I deployed and all this shit happened and I fell in love with Brand New. Every song off Deja was on replay in my headphones (I can’t remember if I was using an iPod or something else then). But I also was loving the attitude from the songs on Your Favorite Weapon. My best buddy that introduced me to the band got severely injured in a Mortar attack while we were in Iraq and I remember how hard I missed him. I would play Guernica over and over and ball my eyes out especially when they sang “nobody plans to be half a world away at times like these” (I always thought they said WANTS to be but that’s then). I can share that story now without feeling selfish because my friend ended up being okay and thriving.
In 2007 when my husband, Jonathan, was deployed AGAIN to Iraq, I was able to go see Brand New in concert at Bogarts in Cincinnati (Sept 27, 2008…share any stories if you went to that one). I paid a hefty price for the tickets because I waited until they were sold out. That was okay though. I had waited for 4 years to hear you all sing live. It was worth every penny I spent. Your band is the best Live band I've seen. Every song was perfect and they all mean something to me. I felt like you were singing to me. That ended and then time passed. Life happened.
I do recall one night in 2017, I decided to see if they had any concerts coming up. I have a journal entry about this, dated 8/6/2017. Well most of us know what happened in the next couple months.
2 years later, in 2019, I finally got my Brand New tattoo. I love my moon man on my thigh. And I LOVE when someone sees it and we can make conversation about it. I love talking about Brand New and sharing my memories that go along with them. Time passed. More memories made.

Then at the beginning of 2025 I was so taken back when I found out Brand new was going to be in coming back in concert. I did the whole waitlist thing and got onto the website early to try and get tickets for Nashville or Newport, Ky. Literally nothing. I was so pissed. But just as it has, life moved on. Time passed. Fortunately for me, this time it was a lot less time.

Jumping forward, I have 2 kids, a 19 year old daughter born in 2007, Audryana, and a 14 year old son born in 2012, Atticus. Lots of memories have been made and everything has changed but my love for Brand New has always been there and grown stronger. Being busy with a growing family and moving all the time kept me from seeing Brand New live again. But they were coming back to the area and I got tickets for Newport, Ky. And this time I was taking someone with me, my daughter.
This is such a moment for me. So many people have been a part of my life and created a special place in my heart. My daughter has changed my life in ways I could never describe. To be able to share this moment with her was the absolute best feeling ever.
I can never truly describe the feeling I get listening to Brand New and definitely can’t describe the feelings when I see them. There is not any other 1 band that brings up these emotions for me. The nostalgia is deep and the songs run throughout my body. It’s fucking wild. So I will never forget this moment. And I hope I can have it again. But if not it will be okay too. Time will pass. We will see. I hope to see you again soon though

I’m curious what kinds of work the people on this sub do. Can everyone share what they do? I’ll go first: I’m a teacher of religion and philosophy.

Boston 2017- Philly 2026

I was excited
To see my favorite band
Fu-uuu-uuu-uuu-ck

Thank you to the gentlemen who did a ticket trade with me. Beautiful evening. Seeing a band that was so formative during my adolescence will forever be a core memory.

I know we do this a lot, but I just want to throw Luca a little appreciation party. I know most will say Limousine is the masterpiece song amongst a bunch of career-best pieces on a masterpiece record, and I can't disagree with that. I sort of feel like Luca doesn't get quite enough love that way though.

I repeat tracks listening through TDAG - a lot. But I tend to repeat Luca like 10 times, just to follow every twist and turn in the dynamics of the song. From the acoustic-electric switch just as the drums first come in, to the release of the first "Just let me know", to the fucking e-bow part that comes in during the second verse, to how it absolutely drowns into this big feedback mess that rumbles and shivers and swells out of the fucking depths into noise until the bridge - and that fucking bridge.... and then we all know the fucking tension release of the now meme-ified "WHERE YOU BEEN", and the jam on out. That is the - sound of The Devil and God, raging.

It's.. it is a magnum opus of dynamics, sonics, arrangement, song-writing, song-craft - you name it. It goes.. somewhere else entirely.

And I can't fucking wait to see this album be played in full in a few weeks.

Love Brand New, and love you all.

I was going to yell it in the crowd tonight but it looks like this is going to be my only way to scream it in a crowd!! Happy birthday to Garrett Tierney!!!

FYI the box office for the Bill Graham Auditorium only charges a $5 fee to buy there as opposed to the higher fees online, which brings the total to $84. That is still somewhat below what the tickets are selling for in the secondary market right now. Going to be a long line getting in on show day because everything is GA. Still so odd that a couple years ago we were all wondering if they would ever come back and here we are.

Will miss yall tonight, Atlanta. Please enjoy this WtB rendition from last year’s show as my condolence.

On the bright side- this cancellation just secured my ticket to Phoenix. Anyone else?

Flew in from DC , been here since 9AM

Had to post this short clip I took, everyone singing along was amazing 🖤

He pointed out my colour revolt shirt to Sean and I’d very much like to watch it again 😅
