Forget about that Tom is a dick and always would delay studio schedule. Tom was a driving force. Imagine just one day in the studio, you would get a Mark sitting and waiting for Tom to come with a decent riffs, hooks, melodies. Mark would throw a basic notes and lay down a wierd lyrics. What's more bizzare is that Mark would trash bunch of Tom ideas, but has none of his own. That's why Tom is perfectly happy with Ilan. Two freaks getting together and mixing tons of ideas even if Tom admittedly said he was running out of good ones. It's much better than sitting with Mark who is getting paranoid af. In a perfect world they should drop the bullshit and be happy and creative in the studio. Too much shit happened that both of them can't move on without hating each other. Quote

Well, I'd disagree with your assertion that Mark can't write a decent song. The only song of his post reunion that I don't like was MH24812489, so that whole point is lost on me. I thought I had heard rumors that Illan was out of AaA, and even if he isn't yet, I'd be shocked if he still is 2 or 3 years from now, if that. I'd say Mark and Travis are doing plenty alright moving on without Tom, so I'm not sure why you say they can't move on without him. 3 Quote

So while Mark in fact wrote some of it, they all got the Feldman dress up, and for the LAST TIME, NO! not what a "producer does" not "what Finn did". 1 Quote
fElon Posted January 31, 2017 Posted January 31, 2017 In short, Mark owes Feldman a grammy if he wins it. Quote

Well its not typical, but its also not at all unheard of. A producer can be used for lots of different things to varying degrees and extents. They just chose to play it safe with California by hiring a producer that can write songs in their style, so that they could focus on establishing a real chemistry with their new band member. 2 Quote
Speedo Posted January 31, 2017 Posted January 31, 2017 A producer is used to produce ... it's in the name ... they have like one job. A Ghost writer though .... Quote

But what does make it correct is Travis Barker saying it, Feldman saying it, Matt and Mark alluding to it in interviews. Unless they are liars. Are they liars? How am I deluded? That doesn't make any sense. You fanboys/Feldman ass kissers are so crazy that you ignore basic facts given in interviews BY THE FUCKING BAND THEMSELVES. 1 Quote
Blink182acti0n Posted January 31, 2017 Posted January 31, 2017 Anyone else love reading the comments on Toms Facebook? Quote

zzzz Posted January 31, 2017 Posted January 31, 2017 Haven't had a good Tom meltdown in awhile, he's been too busy trying to sell us shitty T-shirts, and political posts. His social media is just sad. I'm hoping Blink winning a Grammy will cause a Facebook rant... Quote

_Kyle_ Posted January 31, 2017 Posted January 31, 2017 Tom seems to be nostalgic for himself and thinks Trump is pretty awful. That's like 90% of the people I know on Facebook. Calm down yall. 4 Quote

Why is that so hard to admit. That's not even judging or saying that California is a bad record. That are just facts! The Feldy fan boys are getting more annoying than the Tom ones... 1 Quote
