Tom Delonge talks on how Blink 182 broke up

[peanutbutterisfu]

they already were one of the biggest bands,people already got chills.there are so many bands that wouldnt exsist if not for blink. they are responsible for so many bands existing idk what could be better then that.they could have not been a band for 10years and started a tour and it would sell out.they did stuff that only people like me could dream of doing fuck there pretty big bands that would love to get on there level and it wont happen

[marX7494]

Tom needed a break from Blink to spend time with his family but he should have stuck it out with Mark and Trav after he came back but having ur manager call for u and tell Mark u quit the band was a pretty dick move if Tom wanted to leave he should of had the balls to tell Mark himself

[edurancid44]

leave blink 182

epic fail

[SpaceOdysseus]

@edurancid44 Not Even Angels and Airwaves Are Amazing

[manoverbord1231]

being a musician is like being a jeti o_O

[missmegz1993]

That last like minute when he was describing what he wanted to create with Angels & Airwaves, I just gotta say that I think he accomplished a lot of what he wanted to. Angels & Airwaves songs after hearing them over and over still give me the chills. I'm glad he's back with Blink, so so much, but I think Angels & Airwaves is something very special too.

[johnnymac1986]

blue bottle mic

[GETxS0ME]

Hearing toms side of it, makes more sense than marks, I'd wanna be with my family for awhile as well

[kkatrinamorenoo]

so therefore, Mark definitely felt under attack when Tom and Travis started these side projects cause he was doing nothing else. I'm not saying that the break up is Marks fault but he was definitely insecure and that led into hostility within the group.

[IsaacnonameDavis]

@kkatrinamorenoo idiot.

[kkatrinamorenoo]

I feel as if Tom is solely talking about Mark during this interview. When he says that when Box Car Racer began it brought some hostility to the group its obvious that Mark was the one who was angry since it was a project including TOM AND TRAVIS. So obviously Mark was bringing stuff up about it since he was the only one in the group uninvolved in the group.

Also, Mark only created another band after the fact that Blink broke up. Travis and Tom had Box Car and Travis has Transplants.

[bassplayerguyman]

@kkatrinamorenoo You have a firm grasp of the obvious...

[rocketboy375]

thank fuck they're back <3

[XxisniperxX]

if i could meet one person and hangout with them it would be Tom

[gadame8604]

Lol, if you know blink as i did when i listen to them from the beginning they did a long run from my time, till now. If Tom wanted to change I understand beacuse I has the luxuray to see boxcar racer to play live. It was a highlight because I was able to be close to the players at the Roxy club. None the less the I saw the Transplant live also so. The break up was good because I was able to see the growth of individual player do what they wanted and not pay an arm and leg to see them live live.

[mzarate1017]

Toms a boss

[TribeCalledJake]

Toms a fag

[Jonnyfunnyboy]

They weren't all arguing it was Mark and Tom Travis stayed silent through the whole things!:P lol

[do4mbumgdwqw]

@Jonnyfunnyboy how you know was you there ?

[Jonnyfunnyboy]

@do4mbumgdwqw if you are a blink 182 fan you would know that travis stays silent on stage.

[xXIIHAYDENIIXx]

They were ALL arguing. Tom needed to be with his family, he wanted to be a good father and he felt he was unable to do that with the commitment to Blink at that given time. It was all three of theirs fault. We got +44 and Angels & Airwaves out of it, two amazing bands, and now they're back together. It wasn't just Toms fault, not that it matters anymore.

[do4mbumgdwqw]

@xXIIHAYDENIIXx thats not true

[IsaacnonameDavis]

@xXIIHAYDENIIXx yeah, cause you were there. Idiot

[xXIIHAYDENIIXx]

@IsaacnonameDavis The entire band has spoken about it. Idiot.

[MrLeekzcat]

he kinda looks like Heath Ledger.

[Koty244]

raging boner?that shud be a part of SHIT PISS FUCK CUNT COCKSUCKER MOTHERFUCKER TITS FART TUED AND TWAT nuf sed.

[TheSneakysword]

i love blink, but i dont really like the self entitled as much as i love the others, its not the original blink, i know that musicians cant stay in their goofy days they need to mature. i respect that but i dont like their new stuff as much. its not terrible i listen to it occasionally but i still feel as if they could have made it more fun, at least for a few songs

[stephanieshirley1]

I was so pissed at Tom when I first found out what happened, but now its over, theyre back and thats what matters. we got two more incredible bands out of this break up. be grateful and happy for them, please.

[do4mbumgdwqw]

blink-182 didnt relly broke up up like this tom broke up the band

[McdonTV]

@do4mbumgdwqw Oh really? Were you just hanging out with the band when they broke up or something? You must of been if you know everything.

[do4mbumgdwqw]

@McdonTV well no but i know for a fact tom broke up the band like he said they gave him band or hes family but thats not true

[hieverybody456]

Well now they're back together so why does this shit matter anymore?

[do4mbumgdwqw]

@AlexaRae104 its not toms fault

[ronirub1]

WELL.......... NOW ITS DON'T MAKES DIFFERENT TO US .... BECAUSE THEY FUCKING BACK TOGETHER!!!

[TheMetallicafan7]

wow mark and travis were kinda not bein so nice back then no disrespect but ur family should be ur biigeest priority new albums amazing

[danieljos182]

Agreed, Box Car racer was really great

[naaaaaaaaaaaam]

Box car racer was awsome!

[wimpman94]

I enjoy Box car racer there were a really good band

[ILYBrAnDy1]

Angels & Airwaves forever. Blink 182 forever.

[cgman04]

to said they all said things they didn't mean...what kind of things were said? like "you're a fucking douchebag!" or something?

[BrokenPromisesmusic1]

@cgman04 Well yeah probly but I think he was refering to when Mark And Travis saidd :

"If your family is gonna be your priority be prepared to face the conciequences "

[d0minat0n]

wait is travis in the band again or what plz reply im confused

[stsxn]

@d0minat0n yes of course, blink-182 is completely back!!

[BrittanyDelonge182]

I agree with Tom, and not because im a fan girl who loves him, but because im a girl without a dad, my dad was horrible and never made an effort to be with my family, Tom actually does and I admire that.... Thomas Matthew Delonge Forever <3 :)

[punkster678]

i think every one just got paranoid and that made it difficult for everyone but there back who cares woo~

[orangotangballs]

@Hoppus217 ..i dissagree for acouple of reasons because tom is a very rock hard guy n i mean he holds back alot and i was watching a video of stay together for the kids and he relized he was ment for blink not a.v.a and he cried,thts 1 reason and reason 1,he is so much more confident on stage with blink then A.V.A

[orangepoop33]

i want his jacket

[MissusCommonSense]

@orangepoop33 that's all i thought of during this. lolol

[Yoventif]

@Hoppus217

yooouuuuu are high i love ava but hes meant to be in blink becuz those guys together make musical magic

[DECIFERTHIS09]

Hes got protools on in the back I wonder what it is

[BayHarborButcher04]

In a way I wish Tom would have contiuned Box Car Racer than Angels and Airwaves I just feel that Box Car Racer's songs were more deep than AVA songs.

[BayHarborButcher04]

@BayHarborButcher04 *continued

[monoxide681]

honestly, i believe the new album is gonna suck, they have been gone for to long and they are to grown up, yea the new single is good but i think its obligated to be good because its blink 182, nothing will compete to enema of the state, it probably wont even be as good as dude ranch, i wish they never would have gone on a hiatus, they might have kept strong then, but this new album almost sounds like reattempt or a cash grab

[matthewinaustralia]

Stay together for us!!!!!

[deadendguitarist]

he's talking like he didnt think blink would ever get back together :/ lets all hope it doesnt get fucked up again

[MarksAsianFriend]

sucks how mark and travis saw the situation way different than tom did. thank god they're back :D

[callme861]

i had no idea tom wrote a song for talib kweli. thats so badass

[pangodwangojones]

yeah dont kid yourselves its over

[blondiXblue]

It's like a movie ;)

[2k7Roni]

Tom is a liar. the reason is because they blinked 183 times..

[do4mbumgdwqw]

@2k7Roni how is tom a liar ?

[2k7Roni]

@do4mbumgdwqw read what i said above

[do4mbumgdwqw]

@2k7Roni  i did :D

[do4mbumgdwqw]

@2k7Roni is tom the lead singer ?

[12Saintsrow]

They're back and goddammit their new single is fucking amazing

[Mybestyearmusic]

Blink 182 gives me chills, ava does not.. if anything ava makes me laugh because his voice sounds dumb as fuck

[nadups44]

@Mybestyearmusic it's always been tom's fault... he's like, i'm so emo i like to write shit about feelings and be in touch with myself and so selfish i don't care about anything, and they're so solfish for not playing the same game.... i'm sorry i love the band... i just had to ge it out of my chest, and as i saw you where talking about how ava sucks xD

[TWEEKZALOT]

@nadups44 That was the dumbest fucking thing i've ever heard

[nadups44]

@TWEEKZALOT then you haven't lived too much. guess you don't think the same, sorry bothering.

[nadups44]

@TWEEKZALOT and you didn't hear it, you read it

[Mybestyearmusic]

@nadups44 you do realize that every single musician is emo.. any good one at least.. they are writing poetry, any poet who isn't using emotion is a shitty one.. And everyone has emotions so the people that should be at fault are the ones that hide them. I guess those are what you call "normal people" though, right??

[TheCoyote39]

I feel bad for Tom cause he looks like the bad guy in the whole thing.

[AfasiManny]

seriously im not gay, but im going to cry like a 6 year old girl when Tom, Mark and Travis dies! :(

[greatestxgift]

Biggest band in the world?...How did that go?

[colbyrh1]

@greatestxgift Biggest douche in the world?... how is that going??

[greatestxgift]

@colbyrh1 Why are you asking me? Aren't you watching the documentary on his life and band?

[tIII3monkey]

tom needed to be with his fudging family and he was the big main blink idol and mark was jealous but travis and mark left and mark left to go and do his other ideas after tthe plane crash they got back together and theyre all good thumbs up for tom and blink 182 being back

[imcharleshicks]

@tIII3monkey the word you were searching for is "fucking".

[tIII3monkey]

@imcharleshicks i know but my mom was standing by me when i wrote it and im not suposed to cuss

[asithgftoc]

@tIII3monkey mark and travis were just as popular as tom

[tIII3monkey]

@asithgftoc i know i wrote that when i was nieve

[ihavenomeaning]

blink will never be the same again they broke up just before they were gonna start writing their new album and now they are back together they arent gonna make music as good

[stefoiscoolwettoo]

@ihavenomeaning look where you are writing your comment.. now look what you put in your comment.. now look at your username.. thank(fuck)you.. have a happy day..

[OsKReApZ]

@stefoiscoolwettoo well said !

[dylan134]

@stefoiscoolwettoo hahahaaaaaa best comment EVAAAAAAAAAAA

[Danphilp1]

@ihavenomeaning Shut up...

[stsxn]

@ihavenomeaning if you hate blink-182 Go on and I just wanna say how pathetic you are

[lennonpagedrix97]

your a fag

[TheInk41]

@ihavenomeaning and thats wat just happend recently lol

[ItzBrito]

@ihavenomeaning when i got into blink i just started middle school five years ago and i was walking around with they hardest boner until i asked my bro wen there ganna come out with any new songs then he told me that they broke up years ago, then my boner went down. but then i got the news that blink is back, instanly i grew a raging boner bigger than before so wat im saying is if u say that about blink again ima find u and boner slap myself

[JoeFoShow95]

@ItzBrito you couldnt have said it better

[perci1mh]

@ihavenomeaning This is great how this comment is blocked for so many negative comments. Look at their new album now. Bet you're bummed out for saying this.

[MirrorevO]

6:47 he looks like 2001 

[stonecoldlegend]

toms cool but mark is way fuckin better

[akwardangel]

@stonecoldlegend i agree :)

[Mat5983]

too much dope..

[ChubbyDuckky]

Aww, he sounds like he wants to cry.

So happy they're back together.

[brady1is1crazy1awsum]

@xMATTxN3LSONx Boxcar was just a side project made so explore "un-blinkish" ideas, they never went on a tour or anything, so tom would obviously have time to be with his family. Boxcar happened before all this conflict with tom and wanting to spend time with his family.

[JaredTuozzo]

@brady1is1crazy1awsum box car did tour dude

[coolybell123]

OMFG YOU GUYS HE WAS ON PRESCRIPTION PAIN PILLS FOR HIS BACK AND HE GOT HOOKED. cocaine? what the fuck no.

[09hadz]

[CrazyFooooooooo]

[kkeewiinn2]

[jehano1]

[Arden15yr]

Tom is REAL. Realer than any of dese bitch ass fake ass rappers.

-Go Tom! I got respect for you!

[WebkinzWolfy]

[LordMastert]

[TeiiCikA]

it was very difficult because they went...

but luckily, together again ... Łove Tom <33 :)

[Scrap5000]

Sounds exactly like a divorce.

[LordMastert]

is he crying?

aaw tom really want to be with mark and travis

[SonyMaranzano]

he's not crying, i think he's on cocaine.

[CrazyFooooooooo]

@SonyMaranzano tom would never do cocaine

[mgwblue]

@CrazyFooooooooo Tom admitted in a Rolling Stone interview that he did cocaine. A lot of cocaine.

[CrazyFooooooooo]

@mgwblue really?? fuckk. never thought he would. changed my view on him slightly.

[beglebite]

@mgwblue yeah, he said when he was boasting about changing the world with ava that the drugs were talking

[coolybell123]

@mgwblue what the hell interview was this? do you have a link? anything to back that up?

[beglebite]

@CrazyFooooooooo well he did
