  1. i feel like it's just a status thing for mark. blink was always the joke band and they strived to be taken seriously. he can go hey look we sell out arenas! it's sad when you see a band as huge as green day playing a normal venue like webster hall in NYC on their upcoming tour, but blink will only do large arenas.
  2. lol this is why i find it amazing when blink fans get on their high horse to bash other bands. blink is seen as such a joke to the fast majority
  3. i think that was the joke haha. oh he'll do the chorus. oh i guess he'll do the second verse. maybe he'll do the bridge. yup. he did the beat box
  4. tom: aliens aaaaaaaaaaah general: lol ok. now play for us monkey
  5. i don't listen to it regularly anymore. still like it and all, jammed along to kings of the weekend the other day too. blink just isn't my cup of tea anymore for daily listens. they really killed that part of me during the past 8 years or so. really enjoying bayside's new album right now
  6. random appreciation post for natives
  7. .....but you were cool with tom changing lyrics and making strange noises during every song?
  8. no future is their favorite? they've played it like once lol
  9. its just really not a fair argument if you hate the band for whatever reason, and don't personally appreciate the style of music. it doesnt make them any less popular. adtr are fucking huge. they're at the point where their career will be as long as they want it to be, and musically will live happily ever after playing huge shows all year. are they blink huge? not even close. but how do you even begin to compare 90% of active bands today to blink? blink is another animal of popularity. for the majority, they were a pop band of the 90s like the spice girls. we've seen example after example of this. WE are cult fans of the band, we know all the songs and know how deep and real they can be. but some forget that to the majority, they're a joke band who was naked in that video. for me, i think country music is a joke. but you don't see me putting down country music and its artists just because i dont like the genre. country songs mean a lot to some people, and i get that and can appreciate it
  10. looks like they played don't leave me last night
  11. Just say they played don't leave me at sound check it's a crime this and gatc are left out of the set. Enema non singles deserve SO much more love
  12. gatc should be a damn staple in the set
  13. i heard linkin park right away as well. this song was incredible boring for me. nothing there for me
  14. this is what happens when you have a band as big as blink, when the majority of people go to see all the small things. these people don't go to shows on a regular basis. go see a band like the wonder years or knuckle puck and you won't be able to breath theres so much moving around with people going absolutely crazy. with blink i was able to just stand in place calmly. california songs actually had a great reception at my show, but still, you have not regular show goers there. and i can't believe they skipped san diego at jones beach. they've played it at the shows right before and after that date. i was so bummed
  15. Just stumbled across this, haven't watched it in years. It's a damn shame tom had to drink himself to death to put on a good performance and look like he was having fun up there. I remember him saying he didn't even remember most of this afterwards. What a time this was for us as fans. We just got our favorite band back and they had all the potential in the world. I'm the #1 fan of skiba and the current setup, but of course I wish tom would have magically got himself together and "made blink great again". Such a shame
  16. going to bayside friday! my favorite band, i never miss a NY show. i have CT brand new tickets as well in a few months
  17. even though im very happy with california, whysb is by far the superior album for me. from the deeper lyrical content to the more mature style of songs, i adore that record. i've always said it's got mark's best writing on it, and i don't think he'll ever top it either
  18. yeah and he switched to the triple rec when enema hit as well
  19. What a night. Easily the best and tightest I've ever see them play. And they genuinely looked like they had a great time up there. #thankgodformattskiba
  20. travis' son called him an asshole in his snap lol
  21. as someone who really enjoys california, and still does, i'd be pretty bummed if the next album was california part 2 ala enema and topaj
  22. love him or hate him, the guy did what he's best known for, producing a hit radio friendly album for the dudes. i wouldn't go to a chinese restaurant and be pissed that they didn't accommodate my needs for italian food. they reached out to him, so he made music the way he knows how. he gets so much hate just for doing his job if they really wanted less direction they would have went somewhere else.
  23. and that my friends is why we've gotten greatest hits setlists for the past 8 years
  24. what was that like? that's the ONLY one i still feel awkward about. it's like if blink played pretty little girl
  25. i'm on the sober hate train. i disliked it from the second i heard it till now. feldman said it was created in the first place as, "what would blink sound like on the radio in 2016." radio in 2016 is all just bullshit rihanna shoved down your ears every 5 minutes. and it sounds just like it. but i don't hate on the people who like it, it's all just preference. it's unfortunately just how i view the song. i still listen to it when i listen to the album. it gets a skip sometimes because of this. and i REALLY don't mind the verse's either. it's just the chorus that connects me to all of the bullshit radio pop songs that are about nothing
