Smokeout Festival

[theis]

No problemo

Here's the info:

On behalf of the band Sublime, founding members Bud Gaugh and Eric Wilson are thrilled by the opportunity to reconnect with their fans around the world. While we all mourn the passing of our brother and bandmate Bradley Nowell some thirteen years ago, Sublime still has a strong message of hope and love to share — a message that is especially important in these difficult times.

Brad's heirs apparently do not share this vision and do not want the band Sublime to continue and tried — unsuccessfully — to file a temporary restraining order to prevent the band from carrying on. Despite those objections, we are pleased that the United States District Court has allowed us to perform as Sublime for all of our fans.

We urge everyone to join us in our message of peace and love, and we look forward to sharing the music we created — the music that defines us.

very cool, i was huge sublime fan (still am, just not a regular in my pl), looking forward to hear new tunes.

sublime was bomb. the crowd went nuts over them which is cool cause they are gnarly live. it was definitely worth the trip

I'm a huge Sublime fan.
I honestly wasn't sure how I was gonna feel about the whole thing, but after watching their set, they have my full support!
The new guy is really good...has Brad's voice down, while also bringing a lil of his own flavor to the songs.
Like the other dude said, the crowd went nuts for them....they had more pits going than Deftones (by night fall, all the stoners were burned out and tired, haha).
They played mostly the hits...Date Rape, Smoke 2 Joints, Santeria, Badfish, Wrong way, What I got, etc.
I wanted STP sooooo bad!  But it never came
They did play (what i assume was) a new song, and it was THE SHIT.
Fast punky chorus with distortion, then slow ska-ish verse...it was really good, I can't wait to hear some more new material.
I think a dude I know recorded their set...I'll def upload it and share here for ya'll asap.

Does anyone know the full set list, and know what order the songs were played in?  I was at the concert, I just can't remember.

I also wanted to get the Sublime and Bad Brains set lists, if anyone knows those.

in case anyone is curious what the new version of sublime sounds/looks like, here's a fine sample:

That's just beautiful. Wow, I'm suddenly VERY excited about a new album from them.

btw, thanks for this...i hadn't even heard about it.
I wonder which "heir" was trying to block them.
the boys waited 15 years...they deserve to be able to play their songs again.
it makes me ponder whether other bands would be able to (or should even attempt to) carry on.
a band like Nirvana is one that could NEVER play with another frontman....let's face it, Kurt was the whole show.
what about deftones?
tragically, they've had to prove that they could go on without their bass player...what if (heaven forbid) Chino had an accident?
a frontman like him could never be duplicated, but i'm sure there's plenty of people that could karaoke decently to the Tones.
but it just wouldn't be right....right?

and the Deftones set??

[Nathan]

I would kill for the deftones set....it was one of the best sets I've ever seen (and i've seen them like 15+ times)

Someone's gotta have it...
