david plays the lead in the verse in this performance. but pretty much every time after this. he played A and B power chords in the verse. interesting.
i fucking love tom. my friend saw him on chat roulette while she was wearing make up and trying to scare people. she didn't know who he was til at the end when he said this is tom fromblink182. before that, he was singing to her the song "price tag" but with the lyrics talking about how she looks like she has down syndrome. haha. wish i was at her house a couple nights earlier than i was. love the man.
this intro is fucking fucking fucking fucking fucking and so much more times awesome!! tom is awesome!! shut up you suckers that say that toms voice is not so good!! maybe it isnt but its ever and ever better than yours!!
@bluunntt im all for saying toms a genious but comparing him to hendrix?! :L i love tom i'd kill for his writing ability but he's no where near as good as hendrix on guitar :L
Ýes, it does put me above comments saying he sounds like shit. Regardless of how bad he may sing, he's still done something with his life unlike a nobody like yourself.
Until you accomplish everything he has in his life in your own, you have no right to criticize him. So you may kindly kiss my ass.
@lastplacewin There you go again telling me how he is "above" me. So you think that if someone makes a ton of money, they are above me. Well, Tom didn't graduate from college and I'm graduating from college in the fall, so that is one big accomplishment that he hasn't done. I fear for your "ability" to decide who is above who. Insulting me at the end shows a bit of immaturity, too, which is sad coming from someone who is 25.
He is above YOU, not everyone because YOU said he was shit. Regardless of what you're doing now or plan on doing, HE HAS SUCCEEDED MORE THAN YOU. I CANNOT BREAK THIS DOWN ANY FURTHER YOU SILLY CHILD.
Your attempt to appear mature-minded and elite has failed miserably. Fearing my abilites? Don't make me laugh. I know lots of people who have university degrees and are working $40k a year jobs. A college degree doesn't make you successful, and it certainly doesn't make you smart.
@lastplacewin First of all, you are measuring success by the amount of money he has made. Mother Teresa and Martin Luther King, Jr. were successful and they didn't make large amounts of money. If you think success is measured by money, then I can't change that view, but I think that it's sad that someone would think that.
Secondly, just because I can hold an argument without name-calling doesn't make me cocky or arrogant. I just know how to argue.
@lastplacewin Thirdly, I used the college comparison to say compare money vs. education as another way to show "success." I don't care who says that they are "above me." We are all equal.
in my opinion i live AvA better than blink, i mean dont get me wrong, i love blink and will never stop liking them, but i think in AvA tom expresses himself more, lyricwise, guitar skill wise, and singing wise
@BenWeaverTV I think out of everything they have done Blink 182 is the best, but outside blink boxcar racer is def the best without looking at the short history, the lyrics and the whole acoustic feel was amazing
There's nothing wrong with being a great studio band, blink is too. That's just how they do it. I love both bands, but live they can't hold a candle to bands like Muse. Search Muse doing Plug In Baby or Knights of Cydonia live at Key Arena. Insane.
tom does not sound drunk thats how he always sounds believe me i would know and he didn't forget a single line he sang it flawlessly, i mean come on all songs sound different when they're live everybody knows that
Okay, I seen Blink-182 live in August and they were fucking amazing. Given, Tom's voice wasnt perfect but what do you expect off somebody who has had problems with his back and chest. why dont you fuck off and give him a break. its pretty obvious that he is 10,000 times more talented than you wankbags can ever hope to be.
@Mcsmile1 i think he does it on purpose. this is tom delonge were talking about here, he probably thinks its hilarious, or maybe he thinks hes expressing himself better. actually, hes probably reading all of our comments laughing at what we all think of him
@Mcsmile1 thats not the fuckin point. the point is that he ruined the punk that was represented in his voice back in blink 182. and now hes gonna fuckin ruin blink now. god dammit why did this have to happen
To everyone who's annoyed or dissapointed it may be time to sit back and take a deep sigh of acceptance. It's not like Tom's got a bag full of amazing vocals he's hoarding for himself. This just happens to be the best he can do live at the moment. Granted, alcohol is no friend to precision... but my opinion remains the same.
matt (greatest bassist ever) at 2:55 is probably thinking " shit if i don't help him with his singing my career is over" haha great song great performance
@BenjiKebab its a back track, they do it on loads of tracks, they have a thing set up that starts when atom hits his sticks 4 times, so it plays along with them kinda, i remember critter telling me on modlife ages ago
If this is unedited, which it seems to be, they sound great, tom normally is out of tune and while his singing is never great live, this is tight for him... love AVA.
Tom seems out of breath. I fucking love Angels and Airwaves, trust me, I swear I've connected with their music more than any other of my generation (though as a musician my favorite band is NIN). anyways, his singing has never been great, the secret to this band is their use of the studio and you can tell. thats how blink 182 became so popular, first punk band to sound clean and well recorded/produced.
ou man. When i remember how he looks like in the Josie Video from Blink-182 and how he looks now... it reminds me that iam getting older.. damn! nice performance. love blink & ava :)
hes always had it. he has one on his shoulder that wraps all the way around his neck like you can see. theres a video of tom in mexico when he was with bliink explaining all his tattoos. i watched it a while ago try and find it!
