scoobs Posted October 13, 2022 Report Share Posted October 13, 2022 lovely of him to do that. I would hope the others reached out to him on their own before this happened, but maybe not? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewy030 Posted October 13, 2022 Report Share Posted October 13, 2022 Good call, this for sure deserved it's own topic. I honestly loved seeing this. Such a great move by Tom. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobs Posted October 13, 2022 Report Share Posted October 13, 2022 Bums me out mark/trav didn't think to do it first, but maybe they wanted to keep it private. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knapppers Posted October 13, 2022 Report Share Posted October 13, 2022 Super cool but also a little weird Tom felt the need to post it 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlx9 Posted October 13, 2022 Report Share Posted October 13, 2022 Holy shit, very classy of Tom. I know he’s more grounded now but didn’t think he would say something like that. It’s kinda weird that Tom was the first to say anything than Mark or Travis, but maybe we’ll hear more once the hype dies down. I hope Matt gets a feature with the boys sometime in the future or a guest appearance live. Dude wasn’t perfect but got way more shit than he deserved. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I like about the statement is that it doesn't feel contrived or passive aggressive like most of the shit Tom has been saying over the years. It sounds.....normal, kind, considerate. 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radioactive tomdog Posted October 13, 2022 Report Share Posted October 13, 2022 hope skiba gets the chance to save face and let anyone who hated the previous two records know that it wasn't his fault. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allsystemsgo Posted October 13, 2022 Report Share Posted October 13, 2022 I don't see Skiba posting anything other than a group photo with a hashtag. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

High Value Man Posted October 13, 2022 Report Share Posted October 13, 2022 I have a negative reaction to this post by Tom. It should have been private and I felt the tone was condescending when he described Blink as the "3 of us" and then referred to it as "our band" which clearly implied, "not you". Is it possible I am reading it wrong? Its possible. But, meh. But I ultimately feel like the only reaction that matters is Matts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thongrider Posted October 13, 2022 Report Share Posted October 13, 2022 It was nice to read and if this settle things that's good. But there's bad blood it's gonna make look Matt seem like an asshole if he says something and make Tom look great if he does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coightstanza Posted October 13, 2022 Report Share Posted October 13, 2022 I really feel this shows that Matt was actually in the loop the whole time. Otherwise it’s basically and open invitation for Matt to come out and say he was fucked over. Don’t believe that’s happened anymore. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think Matt is the kind of guy to publicly air his dirty laundry like that. Was even shocked he made the comment a couple months ago. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dylan_ Posted October 13, 2022 Report Share Posted October 13, 2022 I think it was good he did it publicly. It’s a nice gesture and it gives us fans some comfort knowing Tom really appreciates what Matt did for the band. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotts Engineer Posted October 13, 2022 Report Share Posted October 13, 2022 /c /v Wow, this is more interesting than the music itself. I'm absolutely shocked Tom actually seems IN it again. We WILL get good music at some point if that's the case between the three. I don't think he's been IN it, since like literally early TOYPAJ? (Or whenever he started dabbling with the Boxcar he seemed to have this 'moving on' aspect of him). Crazy times. Love it, better than any soap opera, drama, sitcom, band out there imo. Great message Tom. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobs Posted October 13, 2022 Report Share Posted October 13, 2022 It would be weirder if there was no public acknowledgement of Matt’s work with blink. I’m good with this 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
