Chalk Outlines

It was fake.

Just stumbled upon this old soundcheck video. Does make me feel the follow up to Self Title at that time would have been incredible. There's just such an amazing chemistry between Tom and Travis. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3pZpKw_iizA

I think it was the Google interview, Tom said "I literally had nothing to do with that song". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KjVMaY1zgXQ&t=1407s

Wasn't the twitter drama that Travis demanded to be paid a million dollars still? Something crazy... And the promoter was saying Travis was holding them at ransom or something. Funny how our memories probably dramatise what really happened.

The fact there is only 2 pages at this point shows the overall interest for the song I feel...

Currently at a casual £5600 - damn. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Tom-Delonge-Gibson-Es-333-Guitar/143596268338?_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D225076%26meid%3D85cd2a3a975545e9b7df757de3501724%26pid%3D100675%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D15%26mehot%3Dpp%26sd%3D143596268338%26itm%3D143596268338%26pmt%3D0%26noa%3D1%26pg%3D2380057%26brand%3DGibson&_trksid=p2380057.c100675.m4236&_trkparms=pageci%3A79d5f701-939f-11ea-b694-4e850b5d5fbb|parentrq%3A047064571720ad397e34ca23ffdf3dd8|iid%3A1

It was after the TOYPAJ tour cycle Travis was asked to drum for Transplants and that’s the time frame he says in this interview he still didn’t have a cut of publishing.

Interesting - so Travis is saying when Transplants started and he drove over to see Tim Armstrong "I didn't have money - when I got in Blink I was writing songs, helping with everything - but it was kinda like, you're the new guy so we're not cutting you in on publishing, so I had to prove myself, which is cool, I respect that. I wasn't papered up. They were but I was touring and making ends meet. But then I told them, look if I'm going to be apart of the band and I'm gonna be writing these songs I gotta be taking care of like I'm in, or... you guys can write them, and I'll just jump in and record drums the day you guys record, and we figured it out. Mark and Tom were always nothing but cool." That was when they were recording untitled - mad to think even on TOYPAJ he still wasn't getting a 1/3 split. Does make me question what Skiba's situation is even more.

Pretty Cool.

They just posted a teaser of the track on the blink account story. I guess this is the ‘Go’ of this album?

Pics?

I think in the Google interview within Mark and Tom, someone in the audience asked a question about Hearts All Gone, Mark responded and then at the end Tom mentioned that he had absolutely nothing to do with the song. Might not be 100% accurate on that but pretty sure...

I heard Built This Pool, Brohemian Rhapsody and Can't Get You More Pregnant about 6/7 weeks before the initial leak. Music Video directors/production companies get them ahead of time to pitch ideas but it's just a very respectful industry of not leaking or discussing... mainly as we'd fuck our relationships with commissioners. Brohemian Rhapsody was originally called something else and they were going to release three studio videos for those tracks and were asking to be pitched ideas. Was pretty low budget though.

True but they do have the second EP recorded too so I assume they'll play a few tracks from that alongside a "Trash-pop" cover of the Cure or something... or they'll do a horrible electronic version of Whats My Age Again...

I'll take Pharrell over Feldy right about now.

Inteteresting Travis liked it despite not following Tom. I would love to be a fly on the wall in the blink camp to know how much this stuff gets discussed when Tom does this shit ha.

You can still own and have shares in a company without being a director of the company. That document basically implies that Tom can't have any creative control over blink. One of the other documents from early 2000's had Tom as CEO and CFO with Mark as secretary and Travis absent.

Assume it's just filing Mark and Travis as the operating directors of the company, as Tom can still own a 1/3 of it.

The Wishing Well riff was meant for AVA from one of his modlife videos I believe.

+44 meets Alkaline Trio is what should happen next with a couple of upbeat songs for radio.

Disappointing should have put out an EP of just 4/5 songs.

Horrible. Horrible. Horrible.

always loved this...
