Blink-182 [ARCHIVED] Band • Page 429

Aw. Tom and m+ms

 

If only he would have nailed riffs like that when it mattered. Ah Thomas, Thomas, Thomas...

Ah well back to being stoked for new blink tomorrow

 

Ironic the song he is playing that is so sad is "M+Ms" (Mark+Matt).

 

Woah this thread moves so fast
Considering Rabbit Hole is going to be realeased tomorrow, do you guys think it will be included in the acoustic set? Maybe they'll play it from now on

 

Skiba still owns the worst on-stage meltdown between the two of them.

 

That's kind of a low blow. Wtf. We get it, you love Tom.

 

Being suicidal and being a dick because you think you're too good for your job are two different things, but okay.

 

Im unfamiliar with this meltdown he is referring to, anyone care to fill me in.

 

Oh fuck off asshat.

 

It was ugly, he had just gotten through a horrible break up. He was playing a Seakrets show in Chicago, he was completely drunk and on pills. He could barely stand up, he forgot all the words. He was getting booed and people walked out.

 

Matt: gets fucked up and shits the bed on stage because he's having a hard time dealing with sensitive personal matters.

Tom: gets fucked up and shits the bed on stage, well just because he doesn't give a flying fuck that you paid money to see him.

 

I'm so happy he's doing so well these days. I remember just being so worried/sad after that footage came out.

 

And unlike Tom who is clearly just fucking with people in the videos I've seen so far, Matt's is uncomfortable to watch because he's not even there. It's not funny.

 

I was at that show. One of the hardest things to watch.

 

AND Matt went back after the fact and played another show for people people who brought tickets to the first one because he felt so bad about it, so, not at all comparable.

 

I have no issue with Matt at all. I'm happy he's better. Tom's behavior on stage has bordered on inexcusable a lot of the time, but don't act like Matt hasn't turned in some clunkers of his own.

Everyone is so happy Tom is gone but they keep bringing up how awful he was. Just move on already, people. Every time there's a new video it's "SEE! TOM YOU'RE TERRIBLE!"

Matt is great.

 

This was not to long after that show I believe, he can barely stand up in this video.

 

My liiiitttllllllleeee wiiiindmill

 

Exactly, when he was going through that shit it was tough to watch because he's one of the most kindest and sweetest dudes you could ever meet. I've met him more than a few times, and he's easily one of the nicest people I've ever met.

 

Tom being awful has nothing to do with Matt so comparing the two in that way is stupid. So far Matt has done a great job in his place in Blink despite his past problems and he's had his shit together for a while now. Bringing them up still doesn't make Tom look any better.

 

Naw, I'm gonna keep ripping on Tom.

 

People just need to move on. People talked shit on the Kerrang interviewer from continuing to bring up Tom, but people can't seem to let him go. Blink is moving on without him, which is sad but ultimately great because there's new music. Don't know why everyone wants to dwell on the past instead of being happy for the present.

 

But....but..... Tom.is.Out and Tom looks like he doesn't want to be there .....

 

Just going to say i'm listening to the song you got your forum name from right now.

 

To be fair, we know nothing about Tom's mental health or how he actually feels, so I wouldn't be so quick to repeatedly call him an asshole, either
