Lol well played Ghent. You fell for it when that guy made up the Mark Hoppus interview as well, didn’t you?

I wasn't here for that, I probably would have though. I'm weird with shit ... I'm super cynical and critical in person but online I fall for the dumbest shit.

I’m still hurt about being teased a full WDNTW acoustic album and then only getting an ep, especially since he showed snippets from songs we never ended up hearing.

Fuck this just ruined my day, I wanted the rest of that album so bad haha. I had forgotten about it.

I wasn't even surprised when i saw only 4 songs lol, i was surprised he didnt release the rest tho, i thought he was going to cream his fans with 3 eps..

I still don't see any reason for bands to put anything out right now until shows are back in some capacity. (Unless it's a DLX/Live/Demos type of thing) I think this will drag into Fall at the earliest because of this.

I kind of agree with this. For whatever reasons, people aren't really into new music in the usual ways right now. So many albums that came out last year got attention for about 30 seconds and then went in one ear and out the other. When you release an album into the Covid abyss it just exists when it's released, but then doesn't have a life beyond that because bands can't tour to spread the word and there can't really be a normal promotional cycle.

Maybe with someone as famous as Tom it wouldn't really matter one way or the other, but it's a really strange landscape out there for musicians right now.

Love Atom ... he was great with Rocket, Offspring, AvA and now Against Me!

And Social Distortion! Although he never recorded with them, he definitely brought some extra energy to their concerts. He actually left them to be in AVA. Great drummer.

When I went to an AVA Modlife Meet & Greet in 2008 Atom was the only one I had a real conversation with. Tom bolted pretty quick after saying hi to everyone and then I got to chat with Atom for like ten minutes. He was really cool and seemed so genuinely grateful that I was there supporting him and the band. He’s rad.

I've never gotten the chance to talk to him but he always seemed like a solid dude.
