    Seen them a few nights ago. They were decent. They only played a couple of new songs and the crowd was really into them and knew all the old material so that was cool. Rome's voice worked pretty good for some songs, but not so much on others. I'll classify it as I'm glad I can say I seen them but it was nothing too great.

    I've seen them twice now with Rome, and I have to say that I was impressed. I love Sublime almost as much as I love PJ, and I never got to see them with Brad, so I figured why not? Rome has a pretty great voice and I was surprised when they played some tunes off Robbin' the Hood - great setlists and the crowd had a great energy both times.

    To be honest though, if I had the choice between seeing Badfish or Sublime w/ Rome, I would go with Badfish. They usually play HOB (my fave venue) and their setlists are longer and deeper. Not to mention the show is cheaper. I highly recommend checking them out if they come to your town!

    saw them on friday. was pretty impressed. new songs are cool. loved hearing the old school tunes though. i really think rome has a great voice. i think he represented the band and brad well.

    only thing is my friend thought they were coming on at 7:30. they came out a half hour earlier so we missed a good chunk of their set. unfortunately we got to see all of 311's. they stink (other than a few songs imo)

    hope to see sublime w/rome again.

    Against my better judgement I gave the album a try, and it's actually not bad. Rome has a good voice and it still sounds like Sublime, albeit a lot more friendly than the Brad version. I miss the occasional punk freakouts, but I can live without them. That said, I probably wouldn't have listened at all if "Sublime" wasn't in the name...
    Thanks EPOTTSIII!

    I caught these guys with 311 in philly... they sounded great... it always depresses me listening to them, though, because it makes me think of what could have been if Bradley was still alive. That being said, Rome is very talented and does the old songs justice. They played a ton off 40oz. including "Don't Push", "Scarlet Begonias", "Smoke Two Joints", "Right Back", "What Happened", "Date Rape", "We're Only Gonna Die," and a bunch more... Also played "Greatest Hits" off Robbin' the Hood... good times.
