Died in 1966 yeah

As Noel said, at least he waited until people were dead before he stole their music.

Just finished it too. Really enjoyed it. It was a great insight into Mark’s psyche. His OCD, germphobia and the themes of death and 1 in a millions that run through the book. I thought the early stuff pre blink was great and the cancer stuff was gripping. Top stuff. Agree with most people that it was just a little short and the main disappointment was the stuff that was missing. I would have liked a bit more gossip, a bit more detail on some fights or arguments. I would also have liked more detail on the Matt era. I remember Travis effectively saying “it ain’t blink without Tom’” I would have liked more insight into what went wrong in the Skiba era. Also do we think Tom actually auditioned to be Stiffler? I’d pay to see that edit 😂 On a personal note, I don’t follow this band, or any music for that matter, as much as I used to. I used to spend hours trawling round looking for demos, tidbits, stories about the band. It was nice to get lost in that world again, felt like a real throwback.

Great start to the weekend 😃

If he promises to bring back Modern Baseball then I’ll vote for him next time.

Trump back in the White House and Brand New back on tour. The wokesters have lost

No comment.

Lol good analogy. Yeah agreed probably nbd. Funny story, at my stag do/bachelor party one of my old friends who didn’t know anyone else got blasted on cocaine and made a twat of himself 👍 Also called Tom.

I do actually think Mark seems a bit miffed at how drunk Tom is.

Yeah this is sick

lol yeah I could have meddled all day. Still want to swap One More Time Blink Wave. OMT was a tricky one. C song with S meaning.

Wait until you hear Roxanne by The Police

I got about 20 songs in and realised there was more to life than this and closed the tab.
