  7. I still remember calling the bookstore asking if they had a copy in stock and they thought I was prank calling them.

    The fact that this was co-written with Dan Ozzi made me pre-order it much quicker than I would have otherwise. Stoked for this!

    Serious question: Why should we be excited about Dan Ozzi co-writing it?

    Unserious comment: This book is going to suck because it was co-written.
     
  15. Dan Ozzi wrote Sellout, which is a great read.

    He's a great music writer who is pretty passionate about the era of punk Blink-182 originated in. Somebody already mentioned "Sellout" but he also co-wrote Laura Jane Grace's memoir a few years prior to that. And that was a great read too.

    EDIT: I think it would suck if Mark (who isn't a writer) tried writing it on its own. The reason they bring on somebody to help write these things is because of that specific gap in skills.

    Hadn’t occurred to me Mark is the only member for the entire ride. Love the pitch that this is the most definitive account of blink history.

    Guys, if you haven't read Dan Ozzi's book "Sellout" yet, please do. One of the best books about punk, pop punk etc. i have ever read. I couldn't put it down. So good.

    And don't forget to support ur local book shops. It took like 3 weeks for it to arrive at my bookstore here in Germany. Worth it.

    An inconsequential shift as the continents drift.

    Sellout is such a great read

    Yeah I loved Sellout and I love Mark so this is extremely exciting

    Also kinda cool that all three members of Blink will now be published authors

    April 8th seems so far away. Can’t wait for this. 400 pages seems like a nice length. Hopefully it’s heavy on details about recording process of everything.

    I would also love some mention of the Blinkumentary lol
