  • tom was on a lot of drugs at this time.

  • Just because Travis barker plays faster doesn't mean he is better, angels and airwaves doesn't require really fast drumming, bur I do agree that if atom and Travis sat down and had a drum off Travis would win...

  • im actually a huge fan of the angels and airwaves drummer, just suits the band really well

  • ive been watching this video over and over and over and over again for years, i ALWAYS get goosebumps, i love this band so much, they are magical

  • tom sounds fuckin amazin...

    AVA +44*BCR = b182 lol

  • I like Matt :)

  • I like AvA more than plus 44, and a lil bit more than Blink. But Mark Hoppus is a much better musician. He writes, sings, plays, and produces.

  • @13Yanks Tom does those too, but he is also in politics, and writes songs for bands in different Genres.

    And Tom still has a main band.

    Mark doesn't.

    LOL

  • i wus there. long time ago.. still a good day

  • fukin poetry

  • true art, true masterpiece, true love

  • people dont really give boxcar racer a lot of credit they were a really great group

  • box car was a side project...tom wanted to make songs that he thought weren't in the blink style. it served its purpose. they're not coming back..

  • ya +44 split up in 2008 in like feburary

  • they didnt break up, mark said he still is gonna play with +44 hes just got to much other shit on but hes gonna make time to play wit +44

  • same with angels and airwaves and tom

  • BRING BACK BOXCAR RACER!!!!

  • Boxcar Racer was pretty badass however brief it was...

  • yeah man with songs loke "i feel so" and "there is" it was pretty fucking awseome, but definately not worth the break up of blink, apparently that kinda sparked the fights between mark and tom

  • I fricken love Toms Guitar!

  • and u know that more than half of the fans of ava r fans of blink 182 and same with plus 44

  • plus 44 split long before any talk of a blink reunion

  • can anyone tell me what tom is strumming through the verses?...

  • hey! go to google and google ultimate guitar and type in "the Adventure" and a list of tabs pop up..click the very first one! hope i helped if not i'll write'em 4 ya

  • i appreciate the help, however i've scoured many tabs looking for the chords he is strumming throughout the verses of this song. i have yet to find a correct tab. i know he is strumming a B for the most part but he is playing other chords as well that i can't make out.

  • hey dude. i dunno what he's playing here, but it could be the same as the recording. he doesn't play chords, he just plays a riff. it goes like this for 4 times, but instead of the bit with the 8's, the last time it goes to 11 on the d string 4 times. hope that helped. the first 4 nines aren't palm muted, the other notes are.

    g--------------8-------8------­8-----

  • thanks a bunch

  • Hearing a crowd echo back this bridge is unbelievable

  • the angels and airwaves is the best grup!!!!

  • Ok AvA is truelly AMAZING but you cant say blink is bad. Blink is what started Tom's career. Blink and AvA are 2 COMPLETELY different styles. theres no way to compare them. But, they are both great

  • Hahaha, I love how blink fans say that its better music than AvA...seriously? Are you musically ignorant? Yea, blink has catchy riffs and travis barker has good chops...what drummer doesnt? Atom Willard is a better musician than travis barker. You are telling me that Mark is a better bassist than Matt?..Matt from 30 seconds to mars?...if you say that you must be musically retarded. AvA is music with a purpose. Blink fans can go be 13 for the rest of their lives and mad at their parents.

  • I honestly agree with you. Now don't get me wrong I love Blink and I'm absolutely stoked there back together. But honestly when Mark, Tom, and Travis went there seperate ways (well Tom...Travis was drummer for +44 too) the new music they made more seriously was awesome. +44 made awesome music. AvA will continue to since they didn't break up. I will always love Blink though.

  • You obviously don't know shit about drums if you think Atom Willard is a better musician than Travis Barker. Matt and Mark are at about the same level in terms of bass playing, but Mark fucking owns him when it comes to songwriting, and Mark can sing better than anyone in AVA. David really doesn't bring anything to the table. So you really don't have an arguement here.

  • haha thats funny because you obviously don't know shit about real music if you are making those comments. If you listen to the tom fills that atom has throughout the songs and his change in tempo he clearly sets himself apart from travis "i hit my drums as fast as i can so i can make 13 year old boys think this is talent" barker. If you ever say that Mark and Matt are of equal talent again you will be struck dead by the Gods of music.

  • The second you said Atom is a better drummer than Barker I stopped listening. Just cause Atom plays slower it doesn't make it "epic". Travis is beyond Atom in terms of drum technicality, it's just fact. Travis can play anything Atom can, and the converse of that is not true.

  • Comment removed

  • You said the word "epic", not me. now. please show me a song that atom willard could not play by travis barker. please show me. i am open to argument and i understand in your opinion that travis barker is just an awesome drummer. i mean, just look at what he did for the game when he made "dope boys". travis barker truly is a God of Drum. (sarcasm to the max) please. show me a song atom would be unable to play. truth is, they could play any of each others stuff. they are professional musicians.

  • And I never said travis was soo talented cuz he's "the fastest thing ever omggz", yet you brought that into your comment.

    youtube: =Qwa0WskjLfQ

    Atom Willard could not play those tom fills that fast and that clean.

  • ...you really dont realize you completely contradicted yourself in that statement.

  • not at all. the speed comment was merely pointing out one of atom's inabilities, not travis's strengths.

  • Mark wrote songs in a completely surface level way about being broken up with and hating high school and getting picked on. His best bass song is carousel in which the opening riff isn't even that good and he shat on the rest of the song. Matt plays most all keyboard for AVA and finds harmonies people couldn't even imagine, which he also did for 30 Seconds to Mars. If you really believe Mark sings that much better, watch the live blink show in vegas they played a few days ago.

  • that was one of the first shows they played, I don't expect a band to play good at there first date of a tour, I agree Matt is a better musician, but I'd rather see a Mark Hoppus led band, then a Matt Watcher led band.

  • how is matt a better musician? he just plays root notes and he dosent write songs

  • He plays the synth and piano instead of having a backtrack now.

  • so? mark can play keyboard and all that shit... plus he can actually write songs

  • Matt wrote songs with Jared Leto in 30 seconds to mars.....

  • if thats true then yeah he wrote some songs with jarred in 30stm. mark wrote the whole +44 album and like 50% of blinks's songs. also mark is a record producer and that takes tallent aswell

  • Very true, honestly I didnt even mean Matt vs Mark, I thought you were talkin about Matt vs Ryan Sinn. Ill always like mark better, but Matt is pretty good.

  • ohh haha

  • @gizmo359c Tom produced the AVA albums dude. Critter is the sound engineer and Tom also shot a video for a band. That makes him far more successful than Mark. Just saying.

  • @gr1zz1y4dd4mz HAHAHAHAHAHA this a year old!!!! who gives a shit? besides this was mark hoppus vs matt watcher. nothing to do with tom. but its funny that you think tom is "far more successful" when him and mark are in the same band. just saying

  • I think Tom should keep working on AvA. Although Blink will be great but I think AvA will be bigger

  • I agree with you, I mean, its been a few years since Blink broke up. Quite a while actually, they were still pretty young. But the members of Blink probably are gonna sound so different. Idk, I dont think they'll be able to make music like they used to. I love both AvA and Blink. But I think AvA will sound a lot better than the new Blink.

  • i agree andymister12,would rather see tom with AVA

  • There new cd is gona be FREE

  • probs coz its gonna be like christmas when its realsed so i hear

    not sure ;S

  • ya hes releasen it for freen on xmas

    i fregin cant wait for them to go on tour

  • Angels and Airwaves!!! one of my favorite bands of all time!!!

  • that is an awesome crowd

    i wish i was there

    the new ava record is gona be way better then blinks

  • hahaha.

    there is no way that AvA's new album will be better than Blink's new album.

  • i love blink don't get me wrong

    i can't wait to see them live

    but i don't their new cd is gona be all that great

    and tom said that this new cd is gona put all the other agels and airwaves stuff to shame

  • dude, tom has said that about EVERY ava CD. Blink just writes better music.

  • that is true tho

    he did say ppl would think that jesus came down and wrote the songs the we don't need to wisper

    but no i'm pumped for the new cd

  • i love blink...ive loved them for years but srsly wat u jst said there is complete bullshit...AVA writes music 10 times better than blink....most blink songs are about stupid things u do when ur a teenager...infact most blink songs are songs u would find McFly and Busted singing however, all of AVAs songs have as meaning and the lyrics are much deeper than blinks

  • I agree onehundredandsixpercent.

  • I Want That Guitar!

    Tom Rocks!

  • i went to this concert!

  • fucking idiots all of u gays.. ofc they will be different!!! but wtf ppl! they are older, i think the new music will just be better!

  • love this song, CD sounds a lot better

  • all of yall that give people thumbs down 4 jokin about Tom's voice are retarded

    I joke about Tom's voice even tho I love it

    there's nothin wrong with a joke but if people are actually all like "Tomn sucks, so does his voice" that's when you give someone a thumbs down

    so settle down

  • i dont give a shit if blink is coming back THEY WONT BE THE SAME OLD BLINK WE ALL KNOW.. it will be a sort of Ava +44 mix.. i am not sure iam gonna like that ... anyway this video is amazing i just love tom soo soo much i wish he came southamerica at least ONCEEEE

  • I agree!!! FUCK the new blink. Mark Hoppus always updates HIS twiiter, how come Blink-182 never updates theirs?! CAUSE MARK AND TOM SPEND NO TIME TOGETHER. Mark is in LA and Tom is home with his family.

  • you guys.. seriously.. SUCK BALLS

    they'll probb. won't be like the old blink.. we all fuckin know that , bloody Rtards.

    But who says they'll be bad ? its people like you that made their comeback take so long!

  • give them a chance.. jesus!!

    they have grown up and have families so you cant expect them to fall back in to what they use to be like

  • the crowd has better pitch than Tom, haha.

    I sure hope he goes back to being Blink Tom instead of his more "mature" AVA voice; it honestly kinda sucked.

  • and tom is older now..

  • haha what was david doing at the end of the song?

  • i love blink and all.

    but i'm really gunna miss this for a while.

  • they reunited yesterday in the grammys

    almost unblelievable fuckin rocks

  • Dam I Wish I Was There ! Its Going Off !

  • soo jealous

  • there's noway Tom would throw THIS away to go back to Blink!

  • where hav u heard about a reunion tour ?

  • you sir a fucking idiot.theres no blink so NO there not talking about a reunion tour.its never gonna happen GET OVER IT

  • read mark's blog. he talks about it. not exactly a reunion, but he says it is possible and if it did happen it would be amazing. he also says that to have a reunion they have to get back to better friends than before blink.

  • and then he goes to mtv and says hes going on his own solo album so i dont expect blink to return anytime soon. not after ava's done w its 3rd album and toured countless times overseas etc.

  • i bet you feel pretty stupid now

  • xxporterx3 your a fool they sure are doing a tour idiot.

  • W AVA ANGELS AND AIRWAVES

  • fuckin cool .. !

  • Being at these shows is awesome... when everyone sings the bridge to this song its electrifying

  • sounds cool

    like its covered awesome sound

  • tom = amazing ... haha love the guitar!

  • AVA!!!!!

    his guitar is amazing

    i would give all cash ia have for this guitar!(and i dont play guitar :P)

  • why don't you do it then?

  • if you ask anyone else theyd say no

  • nah, es-333's and 335's are "bitchin'" guitars.

  • vbnjvbnj: that is so not true

  • woah this was on my birthday

  • Blink was twice Angels and airwaves... And +44....

    Not saying angels and airwaves suck its just that tom seemed much happier with blink and now has no enthusiasim

  • actually tom is quite similar to what he was in blink. i met him a few days ago and he hasnt changed as much as people think. his on stage presence is much different but only for the reason that his music is alot different, but in between songs he still screams profanity and makes wierd jokes. i do agree that blink is unbeatable and legendary but ava is incredible

  • Wow! You think Tom was happier in blink? Watch "Start the Machine" BIATCH!

  • Omg nice crowd!:D

    Tom has just a special voice^^

    And it seems that the crowd loves it to^^

    AVA!!!

  • the energy in the crowd is amazing

  • I love how you can hear the crowd more than Tom.

    AVA is the greatest

  • Hey i've got a question (great vid btw ava's the best thing ever)

    y does AvA always have 4 flags (or 3 not sure) at their latest performances and at I-Empire? what do those flags represent?

  • decoration. or maybe 3 flags for 3 letters in ava.

  • I wish i was there!!

  • haha i was there

  • toms the shit

    ava rules

  • toms voice is perfect!

  • im seeing them at the warped tour this year on july 27

    cant wait

  • oh yea well...i was freaken at this concert lol

    then i saw then again =P

  • hey y does he he have a sweat band over his old tattoo? the two line tattoo

  • so he doesnt get wood burn from his guitar. plus the two band tatoo is on his right arm not left

  • he doesn't; the wristband is on his right arm. all his tattoos are on his left arm, left chest, left shoulder blade, and a small rose vine going up the back of his neck to behind his right ear where it has his wife's (Jenn) initials.

    I know lots about Tom Delonge =D

  • this is the first time i've ava live where tom didn't wear any sleeves or a jacket......... he wears his blink outfit..hehehe

  • You're right!^^

  • actually first time was before this at six flags great adventure!

  • he cannot sing at all

    he sounds so much better on the album

  • dude, that's like most singers out there. i mean, i find it better in some ways to have his voice sound diff. shows that no one's perfect.

  • very true but

    it kinda kills the song

  • i was at this concert =D

    ive seen then twice and both time tom and the whole band was amazing!!!!!

  • is it just me or have you came onto a video of a band performing a song and started argueing about baseball haha.. can really see the connection there .. and btw.. no one actually cares if your an athlete.. chances are if you've got all this time to spend typing abuse on youtube you aren't .. get a grip.. idiot =) angels at the carling last night.. immense =)

  • yeah man...this kids a douche bag and doesnt know shit about anything

  • ok quit trying to say that baseball is a hard sport...it is for PUSSYS..OMG SOOO MUCH HARDER THAN WRITING MUSIC AND ACTUALLY HAVE IT MEAN SOMETHING... NOT.swing stupid bats around at a ball and u run fucking bases...in hockey at least its a challenge and you can actually hit people....if u do write music its probably total shit....if u write music then why dont u post any videos up...and u dont think musicians love what they do...o yea i forgot they just write music for the hell of it

  • Im not gana argue with you because u obviously dont know shit about baseball

  • I box. Try telling me in any way that baseball is 'tougher' than that.

    I'm pretty sure everyone on here including myself will laugh at you.

    I also play guitar and sing.

    I still believe writing good, (GOOD, NOT MEDIOCRE), music, is way more difficult.

    It all depends on the person, mind you though.

    With some people, athletics is easier, with some it's musical.

    It's easier to be good at athletics though, music is something youre born with, in a way, something you can't really 'train' for.

  • remeber genetics can be a factor for being more fit and athletic, but i agree about your music standpoint i play guitar as well, and i "try" singing, im also pretty athletic i play basketball

  • hey avid if musicians arent more talented than athletes(not dissing athletes cause i play hockey) why dont u try dropping out of school...starting a punk rock band like tom did and become as famous as he did...and it doesnt sound like your any kind of musission lol or however u spelt it cause u wouldnt be dissing it then faggot

  • HAHA....dude most of the MLB (Major League Baseball) if u didnt know didnt even go to schoo because they lived in poverty in the DR or Puerto Rico thats way worse than Tom dropping out of school because hes a punk ass troublemaking low life who got lucky...Those DR kids play for the passion of the game, for the love of the game, and for their own joy. Its hard work and sacrifice playing baseball seriously (like I do) Way harder then being in a band and writing music (which i do) ok bitch?

  • and you think tom doesnt play music for his passion for music?

    damn you dont know anything about tom...

    also...we arent talking about how hard it is to write any kind of music...we are talking about how hard is to write good music...

  • u punks all get fooled by the appearance. And are u proud of knowing everything about him?

  • actually i am proud about it...because he is such an inspiration for me...

  • thts a different story..so thts ok i guess

  • 1st off douche bag(avid93) tom was more talented when he was 12 than you will ever be in your entire life..2nd learn how to spell musician before you try and talk shit about some1 who you dont know anything about and is 100x more famous than you are...3rd baseball is one of the biggest joke/pussy sports out there tough guy...a real sport would be hockey

  • cuz u no my talent.....hockey is for gay canadiens whos life is going nowhere...like the army....The harderst part about hockey is telling ur mom ur gay

  • first off quit trying to diss tom when you dont know shit about him and cant even spell musician...2nd off he was more talented than you will ever be when he was 12....3rd baseball is definitely not a man sport u little bitch go talk shit somewhere else

  • hah u no nothing about baseball then...try and play for one week ull be dead at the second practice...and tom is a lil skater punk fag who gt lucky ith his hair because goy kids like u want the poster in his albums

  • sounds cool

  • cool but actually they crowd shopunt be louder than toms voice and the souns weird

  • HOW CAN YOU SAY THAT!!!!!! GAAHH!

  • theres no1 better for this music than Tom

    he'll always be my idol since the day i started listening to blink when i was round 7 years old lol (k now 15 ^^) love AvA btw, guess toms voice has been like a music addiction for me ( to bad AvA aitn popular in belgium :/ got I-Empire anyways xD
