Blink-182 [ARCHIVED] Band • Page 230

That's good! Any way to up the stream numbers is good as far as I'm concerned

 

I don't think they need much help.

 

I just turned 30 a couple weeks ago. Very odd.

 

ah. yes. When they moved, I followed. I am a sheep.

 

I did!

 

If there's one thing I learned working in this industry for a while, it's that every band needs help.

 

We all are.

 

Hey, me too. Neat!

All you guys who are 30+ think you've wasted your life and are drifting along directionless as the world passes you by and you've accomplished nothing right? I'm nearly 30 and I'm just checking...

 

Wow I feel like a baby in this thread now hahaha. I'm only 20

 

Yep. It's a fallacy to call one regression and space sounds progression and just leave it at that.

 

Absolutely. haha.

 

I'm 27. But I'm married with a kid so sometimes I feel older..

 

I think bands only get a cent per play on Spotify.

 

Well, look for me at Blink, on the lawn, with my 18 yr old daughter, and watch for her at Warped. Shes the one crowd surfing (with the rest)

 

yeah tom without a producer is total balls imo.

 

I gave them about a dollar so far i guess.

 

They used to call Jerry Finn the 4th member of the band, so what's up now Tom

 

less than that. it's more like .001 cent per play. for real.

 

Correct, no one knows, but we can analyze the lyrics and question motivations. I don't see how fame or pressure necessarily comes into play

 

Well, we all know that the pressure from their label came into play when they forced Mark and Tom to write hit singles for TOYPAJ, which resulted in The Rock Show and First Date.

 

I have a girlfriend of 6 years, a good job and finish college in a semester....but I can still relate lol
