.ThirdEyeBlind's stephanjenkins and TBSOfficial's AdamDamnLazzara on early memories of each other’s music, stressing about set lists, and how they think about the past
Photo: Getty Images Third Eye Blind and Taking Back Sunday share a history with Jones Beach Theater. The Long Island venue is the closest to a hometown stage for Taking Back Sunday, the emo hitmakers from nearby Long Beach. “The first two shows we did there, we were just riddled with anxiety,” remembers Adam Lazzara, the band’s singer.
The press release for the tour has Taking Back Sunday’s guitarist, John Nolan, talking about the band really liking Third Eye Blind’s sophomore album, Blue. Does either of you remember any early impressions of the other’s music? SJ: Discmans, wow, Jesus. So Taking Back Sunday, it’s just been so ubiquitous. The thing that’s really been common, to me, is this comparison between our bands that I don’t hear because — I don’t know how to describe it. You’re like, more energy. But the commonality is in this willingness to feel it. This is all getting toward how we came to tour together. I didn’t really make the choice. I think we had three bands we wanted to tour with.
SJ: Sitting and reflecting is vastly overrated. I have no interest in it. Yeah, no, I have to be told about birthdays and landmarks. I think for me, this being the 25th anniversary of Third Eye Blind, it definitely made me try to take some stock of ourselves. I’ve never started a set list early, like I did for this summer, because I’ve put it on myself to try to make the closest thing to a memoir of the band. Some cohesive statement of what the band is.
Sometimes, it feels like people think, They’re just putting the new music out ’cause they have to get a paycheck. So it’s cool to hear you’re still excited.
