Ixidor Posted April 29, 2016 Report Share Posted April 29, 2016 This is the guy who advertised his other band during the REUNION tour... and on some of the official song videos from Neighborhoods. Wearing ava shirts and beanies every damn night. Maybe that is the lagacy he's talking about. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theedge00 Posted April 29, 2016 Report Share Posted April 29, 2016 Read his post, wasn't that bad. Same old post-reunion Tom. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chase Posted April 29, 2016 Report Share Posted April 29, 2016 So according to Tom it's ok to co-write novels with AJ Hartley or Suzanne Young, but it's not ok for Blink to write songs with Feldmann? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M!ke Posted April 29, 2016 Report Share Posted April 29, 2016 The fact that Tom is adding significantly to that Facebook post is clearly an indication the he rushed that post out to begin with. Like I bet he read just one too many posts of fans bothering him about what he thinks of Bored to Death or whatever, and he said, "Fuck it! I gotta give my side of the story" Except all that did was provide us with more fuel for the thank god Tom is gone fire, which is exactly what happened last year when he was kicked out and gave that Facebook sob story about how he was still in the band but finding it hard to commit. I think its kinda funny how in 2008 when Mark made a post saying that he and Travis have been talking to Tom and we all went nuts, couldn't believe it was happening, and we're dying for it to mean for blink to come back together. And now, Tom posts the same kind of post, that he's been (apparently) talking to Mark and Travis, and we're all just like fuck off Tom, please Mark and Travis, never let him back in the band. Crazy how feelings can change so drastically. The reality is though that Tom did this all to himself. If he were the one trying to make music with Mark and Travis, but they could never commit, I'd be saying screw Mark and Travis, but that's not the situation at all, and it never was. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirty Sanchez Posted April 29, 2016 Report Share Posted April 29, 2016 This motherfucker is still using the wrong fucking it's/its. Fucking shit.

Champ182 Posted April 29, 2016 Report Share Posted April 29, 2016 I don't hate Tom, I don't even get mad about things like this at all. But I am definitely sad and disappointed in how he's changed over the years, especially all the self-loathing/talking down about Blink. I mean a perfect example is right after the first breakup. It was still unclear what the fuck happened, but nobody had shown any bad blood or anything yet. Suddenly word gets out that Tom has this new band, I was stoked to hear it! Here was one of my favorite musicians coming up with something new. Rad. Then he shows up in what looks like a bad wig singing faux-U2 songs and saying his new band is a thousand times better than Blink and would cause a rock and roll revolution. What the fuck, didn't I just see this dude like a year ago in my favorite band?? His personality has ebbed and flowed ever since, but the fact that he seems to have veered closest to the Bad Wig dude permanently just makes me bummed out. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helen Hoppus Posted April 29, 2016 Report Share Posted April 29, 2016 delonge got a habit of updating, refreshing or just deleting his own posts, on Twitter, Instagram or Facebook - whatever he always does it, which proves once, that he want so much look like good boy, in favorable light. and absolutely no matter what he should say for it. fake and liar. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blink_punk Posted April 29, 2016 Report Share Posted April 29, 2016 You people are just sick... Fueling your lives with hate, and probably in denial about that. I just can't believe how far you can take this anti Tom thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jd9973l Posted April 29, 2016 Report Share Posted April 29, 2016 I wouldnt be suprirsed if he isnt talking to mark or travis at all. I also like how he always has to throw out the "i created blink" card. Blink isnt anything without mark or travis. Mark especially, he is blink182 as much as tom was. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dylan_ Posted April 29, 2016 Report Share Posted April 29, 2016 Listening to Box Car Racer right now and it's probably some of my favorite stuff Tom has ever written. I still can't believe how much he changed, its really sad. I get that people grow up and mature, but he really went from one end of the spectrum to the other. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just can't believe how far you can take this anti Tom thing. Its mostly just a celebration of thank god we don't have to deal with this kind of nonsense in the band anymore. Pretty great to have great new blink while we can just watch Tom implode from a distance. If you're a fan of blink-182, then I'd think you'd get it too. I mean the implications of this lineup change to blink-182 are fantastic: perhaps they'll vary up the setlist, maybe play longer sets, we'll likely get albums far more often, the guitarist/singer won't sound like shit at every show, the list goes on and on.

BlinkAngels182 Posted April 29, 2016 Report Share Posted April 29, 2016 Call me sick but I honestly have the highest hopes that this album/tour just explodes and puts Blink straight back on the map. Meanwhile Delonge's shit movies/books/music tank he finds himself completely in shambles lost and confused with nothing left but a small crowd of fucked up crackpot fans that are still in as much denial as him. #fingerscrossed. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And he may have been telling the truth. But honestly I think it was a lie to cover for the fact that Tom never wanted to play longer than an hour and a half. If they were playing even 2 hours every night, I don't think I'd even care if their shows never went longer, but at max they seem to only do an hour and a half, and with a catalog as large as theirs, they need to start playing longer shows, far too many great songs were never getting played live (of course it didn't help that they hardly ever changed up the set, and if they ever did, they only would swap out one or two songs).

Dylan_ Posted April 29, 2016 Report Share Posted April 29, 2016 I don't completely hate the guy that I want his life to be ruined. That's pretty rough. He was a douchebag to the fans and Mark and Travis but he never killed anyone. I really enjoyed his music but the majority of the stuff he writes now I don't care for. If he can write some pretty solid music and keep out of Blink's business then I would be happy for him and support his music. The constant bringing up Blink and feeling like he has to show his feelings to fans needs to stop. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sago Posted April 29, 2016 Report Share Posted April 29, 2016 I wonder what Matt is thinking after reading Tom's post... Did they have a friendly relation before Tom left blink? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
