I think that both First Date and ATST sounds so terrible because of the tempo!, whenever I ATST comes up on my playlist from Mark Tom and Travis show I enjoy it, playing that song slow kills it. Just like First Date, it's too slow! There I go again with the tempo haha!

Just like it's no Tom no Blink ? No but seriously, I've said this before, Mark, Travis and fucking Matt Skiba is a pop punk supergroup! I Love Alkaline Trio and Matt is awesome! Their new album is really one of their best as well. With Matt, they will get a dude who's still into pop punk. And still plays pop punk, something Mark, Tom and travis stopped doing in 2002/2003! I truly hope there will be a pro shot from the gig!

It's a shame that all this happened when they just started to sound better. I mean, the reading show probably the best they've sounded since the reunion! I'm really looking forward to Tom's new album though, and I hope we get a pro shot of the +44 2.0 show I'm really curious of how it will sound!

He was probably figuring out that if Tom had kept talking they would've had gone past his precious 90 minutes mark... But damn I forgot how rad that guitar sounds with Mesa! And they had energy back then, EVERY song was so fucking slow after the reunion, some songs were even slower then the originals, Easy Target is one of them. Even when they actually sounded good post reunion, they sounded boring because everything was soooooooo slow and had zero energy. Also,, I love Tom's face expression after he said We love Japanese women, haha!!!

Yeah, to be honest, Tom reuniting Blink fucked AVA up! They stopped touring, stopped promoting, stopped pretty much everything. And that led to Atom quitting the band, pretty sure that's why Matt left as well, and David started his coffee company. They didn't have any income anymore when Tom pretty much forgot about AVA and when Blink took up all of his time with all the touring and stuff. A shame really.

Just to make it clear, do you think DED is a shitty half ass "EP", or are you referring to anything else?

The best thing for blink would have been that they just let Tom take them to Modlife and To the stars.. I don't think it would've changed anything for Mark and Travis except them having a motivated and happy Tom.

Travis laid back attitude has always felt like an act to me,, if a reporter would have asked that question to either Mark and Tom they probably would have answered that they dress up in monkey suits jacking off in a treetop while eating a banana! Or something like that! But not all high and mighty Travis! He's too gangsta for that shit!

As he should be doing, AVA has been his #1 priority since the original break up with Blink! To think that he would change that cus he reconciled with his old buddies and started playing Blink again is just stupid! Blink has been his side project since the reunion, and there is nothing wrong with that imo. He really believes in Angels & Airwaves, why should he just end that? I am really looking forward to the new songs he's about to release, then I really hope that he will take AVA out on a real tour like the old days!

Less Than Jake did the 1 album/show thing too!

I knew that I had it somewhere in my head haha! They gave the fans what they wanted at the time and the didn't fell short on that!

Didn't Mark say something about the Untitled anniversary shows, that they got the idea from fans writing about it on twitter or something like that? I have a vague memory of something like that!

I love AVA! One of my favorite bands!

I am REALLY looking forward to this!!

Actually, nothing can ever take away what he contributed to the band up until 2014 since it's mostly his songs on Neighborhoods and Dogs Eating Dogs! --- One thing that never could come past me was that every song was soo fucking slow after the reunion! The old songs that is!

The first video was a little out of it, but the other two was totally spot on, I don't know what you're talking about!

Say what?

Like blink182.com back in the day if any of you used to hang over there!

Personally, I hate thread forums, It should all just be one big forum were everyone can talk about everything with each other! One big open forum is so much more alive than having everything in boring half dead threads.

Actually no, when you own a studio, you usually record everything when you write the songs, then you show the recording to your band mates and they know where you want to go with the song. This is not that difficult to understand, dude.

Every song in the blink repertoire isn't written by them together. If we say that about half of the songs is written separately, does that mean that only half of the songs blink's done is blink songs then!? If Tom has written songs that was intended for Blink when he was a songwriter for that band, they are indeed his Blink-182 demos!

Just because Tom write songs all on his own doesn't make them AVA scraps.

And Matt's songs will be Alkaline Trio scraps, and that makes Mark's songs +44 scraps with your logic! You guys are funny!

I know you guys hate Tom and everything about him, but it sucks that all this happened cus I were really pumped for the new album! the DED EP were so much better than Neighborhoods, and When I Was Young is one of my all time favorites! The verses in Disaster is really awesome too, as the whole EP! I'm really sceptic about this new "era" that you guys call it, I love Matt's song writing and Alkaline Trio is one of my favorite punk bands, AND, Mark - Matt - Travis really is a pop punk super group! But it is not and will never be Blink-182 imo..
