@@lancebuttercream9817 sorry to be "THAT GUY" but I actually respect Matt Skiba. I think he does good in Blink and Alkaline Trio. Plus he's a super sweet guy who I've met a few times. But if you don't like him in the band I completely understand bro.
Toms not just a musician he's a method actor, when he took up the role of boomer the end of blink 182 was onky a matter of time, for he could never escape that role, he became boomer.
@UA-cam User I definitely respect Tom for what he's done and I think it's awesome. But you've got to admit it's fucking HILARIOUS that the dude who made a song called "fuck a dog" almost single handedly proved UFOs exist.

@@shiki494 I have been hiding mine for almost a decade now. One the tattoos became a fashion and trend, I now wear long sleeve shirts and pants 24/7. I never touched the front of my neck or hands..but other than that, I am pretty much covered. But they are for me.. no one else has to see them. I am disgusted with what tattooing has become. People who would have had a little rose on their ankle, 20 years ago, are now going to shops and getting 8 hours of work done for their first piece Ppl that a lot of guys would have refused to work on and now getting covered. If someone was smart, they would get into the tattoo removal business..because in about 3 or 4 years, there are going to be a TON of hipster idiots wanting tattoo removal.
@@michaelr.4878 So, your tattoos are for you, but you're disgusted with what tattoos have become and others with tattoos are hipster idiots.. okay dude... maybe their tattoos mean as much to them as yours do to you. Sounds to me like you're just pulling the old "I got mine before they were cool and trendy". Yes, you're a unique little snowflake...
I can’t get over how much deeper his voice has gotten in 10 years. I literally just watched an interview from 2011 and he sounds like a completely different person. I’ve never experienced anyone’s speaking voice change this much in the space of 10 years lol
It’s crazy how deep his speaking voice is compared to his singing voice. He sounds more like a baritone when he speaks but when he sings he’s definitely a tenor.
Big day out. I downloaded that in like 2002 on a friends "broadband" because I only had 56 k at home and burned it on a cd. Aw the low tech days. I've seen it soo many times.
Blink isn't the same without Tom.. Sorry Matt Skibba just doesn't work.. Mark and Tom have the vocal chem.. Can't replace that... I L.O.V.E Tom's voice.
Completely agree. I just recently found out he wasnt in the band when I saw a video of blink performing a few weeks ago and I was like wait who the eff is that guy lol.
Haha, the naked bouncer... Tom has always been my top pick, but Mark adds an extra level of wildness to each tale... I'm thrilled they're touring together, and catching them at one of their peak performances was a real highlight (despite their age, they sound even more incredible live than they did in 2011).
maybe he's re-entering the public world because ava is touring thus summer? I'd love it if all of this meant he was working with blink in some way too though; I'd probably cry.
On a recent interview Tom said that it is a fact that he would come back to blink, 'it's part of the plan" he said. It's just a matter of time, he's to catch an alien first whatever..
I am pretty sure Tom has a lot of attachment oddities and lies his ass off about these things to stay relevant. I like his blink music, but dude needs to sort his crap out before he can be stable enough to be blink again. For a guy that got kicked out for not having time to in the band, he certainly talks an awful lot about blink since then.
Yeah, this is why I fell in love with Blink. Tom, Blink and the fans are calling. You guys can be a 4 piece now (I ended up really liking Matt Skiba, but i miss Tom's guitar)
@@jordank5975 completely agree. Live shows he sang like he didn't give a fuck about quality in any way. Sounded like he was drunk and sloppy every song.
@@royoncelluloid4813 Yeah, you know how, like, James Hetfield always talks about metal and, like, you know, dr. dre talks about hip hop, such posers man, like, AS IF a dude who was in a skate/pop/punk band for 15 years REALLY ever owned a punk record..

Did he just explain to us how he got traumatized into this whole alien thing? How old was he at the airport? That sounds pretty crazy Maybe it was a stranger faking it when he was young or something
People like you are so disrespectful. Tom left by choice, and before he left, he was isolating himself from the band and acting like he was better than Mark nd Travis. At blink shows, Tom obviously didn't wanna be there. Mark and Travis are very respectful for keeping blink alive, anfld for still touring. And weather you like it or not, Tom was no better a guitarist than Skiba is or ever was. Skiba being in the band isn't a bad thing. Mark and Travis obviously still want to write and play music. So let them write and play music

Yep. Twenty years of of being a fan and I'm still just as giddy looking at his cute face and dark eyes.
The first riff they wrote together was Carousel.
But thats not Tom's first riff
And to this day, still one of their best. That opening bass line is dreamy
First riff I ever learnt
StanzTalks nobody is saying that’s his first riff.
both the bass and guitar riffs were already made, it was the first time they played them together tho, and they fit perfect
He’s unironically looking like the dude he played in first date
Toms not just a musician he's a method actor, when he took up the role of boomer the end of blink 182 was onky a matter of time, for he could never escape that role, he became boomer.

It never used to be that way though.
