Jan Backing Track Posted September 27, 2019 Report Share Posted September 27, 2019 What if Tom just made new songs but Matt preformed them? I could honestly see this happening knowing blink. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly you can see the differences. I am not saying Tom is right and Mark is wrong. But who writes their own music? Who hides behind John Feldmann? Who says whatever the fuck he wants and doesn't care what people think? Who is scared to change nostalgia setlists for fear that no one will like the music that someone wrote for them? Your obsession with this alpha/beta male thing just shows how truly beta you are. 8 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was always down to tour because he got paid. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But in this case he has flaws and no talent in Blink. He is a glorified Dave Kennedy or worse, that new bass player in AVA that none of the AVAbots want to stand by in the photo op. Yeah, he showed up on the new album, but its starting to feel more like "Hey Matt, here is this part we wrote for you, sing it and we will do our autotuned/production magic" no joke, matt rubano is probably the most talented musician out of anyone who has been in blink or ava...he is legit. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheerios4u98 Posted September 29, 2019 Report Share Posted September 29, 2019 Matt Rubano is rad and he seemed like he was having a great time on stage last night when I saw AVA. Taking Back Sunday is one of my all time favorite bands too, so it's cool seeing him perform again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Low Value Boy Posted September 30, 2019 Report Share Posted September 30, 2019 Nice post from Mark and also good to see him and Tom have a bit of an exchange, seems like they're on pretty good terms at the minute. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheerios4u98 Posted September 30, 2019 Report Share Posted September 30, 2019 at the AVA show last night Tom mentioned that he loves blink and loves Mark and Travis. I mean a lot of what he says is probably scripted and repeated night to night, but it was still nice to hear it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpha males (an amended definition from wikipedia alpha testing) - "Alpha males are men that are not thoroughly tested by common sense before released to the world. Alpha males usually contains serious errors; therefore they can be unstable and could cause unintended hilarity or girlfriend loss. Alpha men may not contain all of the features that are expected for the final relationship." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_release_life_cycle#Alpha 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kay Posted September 30, 2019 Report Share Posted September 30, 2019 Nothing to say he hadn't, though. maybe he did talk to him privately, but felt the need to comment on social media so that the shared fan base don't think he's a prick.

zzzz Posted September 30, 2019 Report Share Posted September 30, 2019 Btw gonna go out on a limb here and say Mark will collab with Tom on a Simple Creatures song eventually. Makes more sense artistically and will be an easier "test" to see how a working relationship may go. (Also gains hype for SC, and pays Tom back for the Mark feature on BCR) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom really needs to find a new voice for future endeavors. Would probably help to get him on something poppy that he isn't in control over. Someone telling him what to sing and how to sing it would do him wonders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty alpha of Mark to kick Tom out IMO... This would actually be an interesting poll, what took more balls: -Mark kicking Tom out -Tom walking away Nah, an alpha stays centered and avoids drama. After Mark started shit at rehearsal in 2005; Tom left the rehearsal because he didn't need to get petty. He had ever right to just have the manager end it. An alpha lives in a drama free zone. Didn't need to sink to Mark's beta level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrong. What you run from haunts you. What you face disappears. Being aware of how you show up as a human is a alpha male quality. Not seeking self improvement and accepting things as they are is beta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
