So I ordered the blink tradings cards a few months ago. Was way overpriced and kind of a joke, but I did it anyway because I’m a big sports card collector.

Waited all this time and they finally showed up yesterday. At least I thought they did. I received an envelope with nothing in it besides a thin piece of cardboard. No receipt, nothing. Just an empty envelope. 🤦‍♂️

That's such a bummer, I'm sorry that happened. I didn't plan on getting the cards because of how expensive they were for what little we'd get, but I'd be fuming if I were in your situation.

Hoping you're some how able to get this resolved with either getting your money back or the proper package (that you ordered) sent your way.

Good god those douchebags are part of the horrible Joe Rogan “comedian” tree. Can’t stand any of them, none of them are funny and they’re all right wing nut huggers 

I catch clips of that show every once in a while on YouTube and it’s funny. I’m not sure what that clip is doing here though.

The eligibility period for the annual Grammy Awards will be Sept. 16, 2023 through Aug. 30, 2024. 

 

The Rolling Stones album and OMT came out on the same day last year and they're both eligible.

That Rolling Stones song with the Sydney Sweeney video was awesome, but I didn't hear anything else off of it. Green Day album is great. No clue on Pearl Jam album but it's Pearl Jam. And a token Dolly Parton?

That's a terrible draw for a realistic blink chance. They should have won it with California.

Yeah, it's impossible this year because the competition is too good and we can't even count on the fact that OMT went #1 on the Billboard chart on the first week (while The Stones, Green Day and PJ didn't go #1) because I just read that Dolly Parton's rock album broke all the records when it came out in the winter "debuting at #1 on six different Billboard charts and marking her biggest album debut to date" 😔 so if the Grammy doesn't go to The Stones, it will go to her.

But maybe we still have a small chance, blink is bigger than ever and they deserve some recognition.

I saw this and thought it was neat that Tom's old high school is deciding to induct him into their 'Hall Of Fame' this year:

Huh, I never knew Tom has some Latino heritage. Cool interview! I love his answer about the band's confidence around 7:00

wmma is such an amazing riff, the way that mark did that changing bass note riff thing, the specific note choice is fantastic

normaly u wouldnt use the highiest note hes using ud use a lower note i think by one fret 

he had the briliance instead to go for that higher note and it makes up for such an amazing sound

doing a riff in that fashion wasnt persay new but after mark did it like that, everyone wanted to write a riff like that n you got songs like this

that mest song is also great

thats the power of greatness it inspire so many ppl in so many ways

lol Mest had a lot of pop/punk bangers. Weird they never got that big and have been completely forgotten about. They were way better than Good Charlotte

Maybe it was because the singer killed a guy.

They were pretty much done by the time that happened if I recall correctly. I saw pics of the singer a while ago and he looks like he’s jacked up on steroids. Must have got spooked about retaliation lol. 

[thongrider]

Wasn't that proven to be self defense?

[thongrider]

Reason I asked was because I Miss You has most streams, but it never seems to be number two.

Blink playing WWWY fest in 2025. Might have to go to this one. Gf loves Panic at The Disco who are also headlining so might be a good one to go to for me.
