The blink 182 general discussion topic

[The Dog From Frasier]

 

finally after 20 years  I found myself a red label at a good price 

[radioactive tomdog]

i guess now would be a bad time to inform you that the original US CD has averaged around $10 used on discogs for at least a decade now. it wasn't really "limited" at all so when everyone ditched their CDs, the value and rarity went away.

I found one for like two dollars in a store a few years ago.

Welll crush my dreams and link me in buying them all.

let's see what's rare then

Trying to lose weight. I’m still a fat bastard from lockdown.

I’ve just accepted it.

I got in the best shape of my life for the first few months of lockdown, then discovered my passion for beer.

Beer > washboard abs.

Fave beer? Do you drink European stuff?

I really like a good variety, but lighter pale ales - Amber Ale, APAs, belgiums, some lagers.  Kolsch style.   Don't like IPAs, Stouts, Pilsners, or heavy wheat beers. 

Favorite beer right now is Fat Tire:

I've really been on an old fashion, margarita cocktail kick lately though.

Bloody Marys when it gets nicer out for summer days.

This was so fun to listen to because it was just Tom talking about punk rock bands, punk rock shows and the early days of blink. 

And it made me realise how I hate that the Tom we love is still there when you keep the conversation away from AVA and To The Stars Academy. How do we get to make AVA and TTSA crash and burn for good?

This was phenomenal. I love hearing about the detailed history early on.

Fuck you Modest mouse!  Love your music but makes sense why it's so depressing.

Fat Tire is a pretty good beer. I don't see them around as much as I did years ago though. All the competition kind of drowned them out

Yup I'll echo what everybody else has said, this was BY FAR the best Tom appearance in years and years and years. He sounds like the guy we all knew and loved back in the day, with tons of knowledge and funny stories from the early early days with some genuinely mature new perspectives on some things. It's like the aliens released Real Tom back to earth for an hour. Great stuff, thanks for posting it!

Does it sound like he could be working with blink in some capacity behind the scenes? I still am getting those vibes
