The blink 182 general discussion topic

When You Fucked Grandpa just popped up on shuffle. First time listening to it in a long time. When Mark starts shouting over himself "this is fucking stupid, man!" and goes on I cracked up. All the stuff he yells at the end of that song makes the whole thing way funnier. I rarely ever listen to the joke songs anymore, but that part made me laugh out loud.

I still think Mother's Day is one of the greatest tracks ever.

The joke songs give me heavy nostalgia for some reason, they were just so legendary at the time

Yup. Opening for +44 in San Francisco was my introduction to them. 

Dude they were sooo good in that show. I remember really digging them. The lead singer started climbing the side of the stage up to the balcony haha

It's the "I hate you!" that always gets me, but the whole thing is fucking brilliant.

That was the MySpace Secret Show. I was at that one too. I was something like 123rd in line and they allowed 125 in. 
The show that was officially part of the tour with the Matches was at The Fillmore.

My best memory of seeing them for the first time was the singer sucking his spit out of the microphone and spitting it back out lol

Finished up another blink wood carving. Next time I’ll probably experiment with some color. Kept it simple for my first try with the smiley 

[zzzz]

haha thanks! it's hard to say how much time they take because I do a lot of fucking off when I work on them. The smiley took way less time than the bunny. But what that equates to as far as hours, I really have no idea. I'll have to keep track next time

It looks like a really fun hobby.

It is, I have really enjoyed it. It's good for anxiety too, you get in a zone and the brain shuts off.

[Champ182]

You ever heard of love spoon carving? Not to get super Welsh again but it's a celtic tradition of carving intricate designed Spoons out of wood. 

My father used to do it when I was a kid and they're beautiful. Pic as an example. (pic isn't my dad's, its off Pinterest lol) 

[Jared Campbell]

I was just kidding by the way, that wood piece is awesome! Great work Ghent you talented SOB

Yeah I have heard of that, would be something fun to try. i think you need a special spoon gouging tool to do it properly. that is the downside of wood carving, good tools are Swiss made and really expensive

I was never into carving but I always wanted to try my hand at turning.
