"This is the first time we've ever played this song in front of people"

Published 27th Jul 2016

On the first stop of their Bored To Death tour, in their home town of San Diego, blink surprised fans by playing the ultra-quick punk stomper!

Introducing the track by saying "This is the first time we've ever played this song in front of people before. You guys are the first!" Mark then played the gentle bass intro, before Travis and Matt hammered in with a burst of pyro and the crowd went nuts!

You can watch fan-filmed footage below

Although this is the first time they performed the song in concert, we've done a bit of digging around and discovered that they actually did it in the soundcheck for the show, which had a tiny audience of fans!

You can watch that version, and the rest of the soundcheck below!

Fingers crossed that UK Summer Tour that they let slip is announced soon!
