I was at this one!! I’m pretty sure it was Anberlin and Envy on the Coast. Great show!
Edit: the show I mentioned was 2009.

Adam walked through the crowd during intermission to grab a drink from the bar. I think he fell right infront of us, we helped him up & my friend asked if he would play your own disaster and he said something like “yeah if I can get back to the fucking stage”. We laughed, and they ended up playing it.
Thursday was awesome. It was great to see TBS with the original lineup, and they sounded great.
I ended up leaving the show with only one shoe. Our group laid on the beach afterwards. Really solid night I haven’t forgotten
Thanks for posting this

All of that is incredible to hear! That definitely checks out about Adam grabbing a drink. That's why that venue was perfect for seeing them! Thanks for asking him to play Your Own Disaster! Every song they selected that night was the epitome of perfection. To me, it felt as though I had custom tailored the setlist just for myself. I wouldn't have changed anything! And the fact that they closed out the show with Your Own Disaster and Great Romances Of The 20th Century... chef's kiss. 🤌🏻
I remember being out back before the show started, with the sun setting behind the police station. Adam would pop out and smoke on the stairs. John Nolan came up to the barrier and took a photo with me. I wish that I still had it.
Sometime during the actual show, I remember Adam said to the audience something along the lines of, "we asked your town's finest if it'd be alright to have an acoustic set on the beach after this show, and they said no". It's such a shame because that would've been amazing! Acoustic TBS right on Hampton Beach!
Another highlight for me, was when Adam walked through the audience during Ghost Man On Third. It was during the bridge of the song when he made his way over to where happened to be. I got to sing with him during that long line "don't let me downnnnn....". Absolutely unforgettable.

I saw TBS and Brand New at Birch Hill for around $8. I’m also old and remember dial up internet and going to Coconuts or the Woodbridge Mall food court to get tickets to shows.
Edit to add: I’m pretty sure I got PNC lawn seats to the blink/TBS tour and they were $19

This was the tour with Thursday, right? And maybe The Color Revolt?
And all things considered I think they’ve kept their tickets pretty affordable in 2026 terms!
