Now I’ll always listen to a song to see if it would be a good single based on how long it takes to get to the chorus/if the intro is too long. Thanks, Mark.



Yup, Sober should’ve been a single.

 

Looks like the Travis Barker House of Horrors show was filmed last night. I wonder what Mark contributed to the show?

 

For a second there I thought that was MGK and Slipknot together lol.

 

Seeing that post from Travis’ event make me hope their next record has no collaborations.

Sorry.

I guess as a one off single or as a collabs EP that works. I just want to hear what the 3 guys come up with with the help of a producer.

 

All this talk of Travis being a “piece of shit.” You know I used to be a piece of shit. Hair slicked back. Sloppy steaks with the boys at Trufoni’s.

 

I know they're probably proud of what they have recorded so far for the new album, and I cannot wait to hear it, but I wonder if they're going to go back and write some new songs about this whole time in Mark's life. Seems like they could be their most personal yet. Maybe he'll tackle that in Simple Creatures.

 

Great point. Here’s shared songs about struggles in life with Blink so maybe it’s the natural place if or when the time is right. Simples Creatures as what they are right now may not be the place, but who knows, he could always do a new or solo thing too. I’m sure it’s all very fresh and still very surreal at the moment.

 

If you’ve abused someone theres never a “bad time” for someone to bring it up against you

 

Thank you for the superior words of wisdom @OhTheWater

 

Same. Used to wear itty bitty jeans. Eat chicken spaghetti at Ciccolini’s.

 

I blink you should leave

 

First Travis works with an abuser, and now he DRESSES like one.

 

Who is he supposed to be?

 

Sid Vicious

 

Sid Vicious from Sex Pistols.

 

Ahh, don't think I've ever actively listened to them. And definitely won't be now

 

Their one album is excellent, and Sid only plays bass on 2 of the songs. I’d definitely recommend it.

 

"plays bass" is being generous

 

So I’d assume this a Halloween costume. It’s not uncommon for someone to dress as something scary or evil.

That said, you could argue it may be poor taste for “him” to dress in that costume if he’s trying to get a reaction.

I think having too much of an opinion in this case is not worth the effort if they are trying to get a reaction from the public. You can make an argument both ways and have a valid point, but Halloween is not known for political correctness.

 

You dorks are having this convo among yourselves haha. I don’t think anyone offended that he’s dressed as a punk icon

 

You think Travis is gonna sit Mark, Tom and Matt at the same table at his wedding? “Sooo…how do you know Travis?…”

 

I'd love to see Matt stick around on second guitar and extra vocals on tour if Tom ever comes back, like Tom Thacker from Gob in Sum 41 after Brownsound came back.

 

Tom isn’t coming back. Tom. Is. Out.
