There is so much to Tom DeLonge that most people don't see. I've been fortunate enough to go to several AvA shows and even sit behind the stage and watch them perform an acoustic set. He really is an amazing guy and that is reflected in his song writing with Angels and Airwaves. Keep it up, Tom!!
i have a new found respect for tom after this video. in most things he's really cocky and arrogant, but right here... he's a human being. a genuine person who loves what he does and is thankful that he can do it.
i can relate im in 7 grade and i started playing guitar this summer and i play for like 4 hours or more a day and toms one of the reasons i started playing
tom said he has been blessed! shhhhhhhhit, tom blessed is a understatement my friend! however remember Tom you are one of the hardest and ambitious individuals ive ever perceived and that is why u deserve it all and i love you!
Omg, Tom makes me want to learn the guitar so bad! Man i really want to! Before i listened to blink 182 i was never interested in music, but once you find your favorite band, you will Love it. I am truly addicted. :) I love you guys, Blink 182 Rocks! And ava and plus 44 rocks too.. ;)
"I picked up the guitar at seventh grade, couldn't put it down. It was this magical moment, where I loved everything about it. You know, when did I feel comfortable with it? I dunno, pretty quickly 'cause I call up all these girls, in my highschool, and I'd sing to them on the phone. And they always knew my voice because I sound like a little chipmunk, like a kid".
also, for the guitarists, go play anthem part two and then play everything's magic, its just 2 notes + rthym, it's cool and all but unbelieveably similar.
Tom is so awesome. The world of music and entertainment would be poor without him. He`s a very interesting man, he has so much hopes, dreams, humor and wise things to say. I think the Matrix was wrong because Tom is the One, not Keanu Reeves.
It is practically anthem part 2, and whooooooo BLINK !82 back together awesome stuff!!! only downside with tom now is when he said that he doesn't want to be in a bullshit pop punk band and disrespected a lot of fans but glad they're back! HOA
If you buy two burritos at Sombreros with a 10 dollar bill, you get $1.82 in change :) Not sure about other locations cause of tax and whatever, but San Diego thats what happens.
@MajoCovers it's a brian baker riff, not blink 182. brian baker has been in such bands as Minor Threat, Dag Nasty, and Bad Religion...but have no idea what that riff is :/
hey i wonder if tom knows how many people he's inspired to play guitar. I wonder if he even stops to think.... I was inspired by tom to pick up the guitar for the first time, and I'm sure there are plenty others as well. Tom, you fucking rock! :D
Well done!!! I'm pretty sure he knows how similar the melodies are numb nutts I mean every1 can hear they sound the same. Whats the big problem with it????
what kind or brand of strings uses tome in his acoustics guitars??.. i know that he uses Ernie Ball.. en the fender.. but .. in this taylor what kind of strings does he uses?
what are are all the riffs being played in here? I know 'everything's magic' 'dammit' 'stay together for the kids' whats that brian baker riff? and i think there's one riff i'm forgetting...i think it was the first one he mentioned, but I couldn't understand him..

Tom’s amazing I think he’s a great singer and guitarist amongst other things he does
i can relate im in 7 grade and i started playing guitar this summer and i play for like 4 hours or more a day and toms one of the reasons i started playing
when he said "punk rock anthem" i think he meant "i tried to play a song like Anthem part.2" :b
I still immediately think of Anthem part II when I hear the intro for Everything's Magic. Both amazing songs still.
tom said he has been blessed! shhhhhhhhit, tom blessed is a understatement my friend! however remember Tom you are one of the hardest and ambitious individuals ive ever perceived and that is why u deserve it all and i love you!

Everything's too loud. Now that all my friends left, this place is fucking dead, I wanna move out. When can we move out?
yes
There is no friend, Tom Delonge uses Taylor 614ce check it yourself on the website of Taylor guitars
The 814ce is much stronger brown color tone ..
