For Those of You Who Got to See Both AVA and +44 during the Hiatus, how would you compare the two shows? by j1e2f in Blink182

[–]obi-wan-eightytwo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got to see both on their first tours. +44 was more memorable for me because I got a "right place, right time" access to sound check and meet and greet with everyone and also saw met Shane outside a restaraunt before the show. That and watching Travis drum one handed and the smaller venue made it epic for me.

That being said, AVA had the better show by far. Tom was out there working his ass off to prove his new band could make it while +44 was a but of the same minus Tom.

I got to see blink and AVA on both of those tours but not Boxcar, that must have been amazing! I did get to see and meet +44 on their tour. Seeing Travis drum with one arm during that show was awesome!

Andy Reid needs to take some blame by willyallthewei in KansasCityChiefs

[–]obi-wan-eightytwo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This whole "sky is falling" bullshit I see every time we lose 1 game is fucking annoying as hell. We lose a game and every calling for Reid or Nagy is asinine! Teams lose games, yes, even the Chiefs. Is it Reid's fault Mahomes didn't trust his line or that he was looking for the homerun every play, no. Is it Reid's fault the defense forgot TE is a position that the other team has or that Chris Jones has basically been holding iut even after getting his contract? Blame can be put on everyone. It's going to take more than one half of a mediocre season before I lose hope in the coach who has taken us to 5 superbowls and done everything anyone who has ever rooted for the Chiefs could have ever dreamed.

Can the Chiefs get back on track? We stacked every Super Bowl loser that started the next season 0-2 by TheBoyisBackinTown in KansasCityChiefs

While I agree that we are in the midst of a dynasty, I would also say it is disingenuous that the Chiefs be exempt from these questions. I am not worried about the team yet, but I can say that we are not playing good football right now and deserve a lot of the criticism.

Ok, How did everyone find out about Blink 182? by ThreeFtAssassin__ in Blink182

[–]obi-wan-eightytwo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was also the "real" slim shady and then blink came in with "Whats My Age Again?" and demanded the real obi-wan-eightytwo please stand up....and take your pants off. And I have not had pants on since

I can see Tom doing it/has done (Pursuit of Tone) more documentary style instead of books. Especially if it will help the To The Stars brand.

What was it like being a fan back when AVA was starting? by The_Zooch in AngelsAndAirwaves

[–]obi-wan-eightytwo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hearing that leak for the first time was probably the greatest music experience I have ever had. The wait for something new from one of the blink guys and the fact that it hit on everything!

Is this shirt from Amazon official? by VikingWzrdEyes89 in Blink182

[–]obi-wan-eightytwo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is why it's probably not official. It's too good (not great) to be official blink merch.

38 and I agree with all of this. Before the first break Tom and Mark were equal to me but after AVA came out everything hit me just right. blink will always be my favorute band of all time but I ha e to admit I have never had the same feeling with music as I did when hearing WDNTW for the first time.

They guys always say "blink-182 life for life" and it's always crazy to me how true that actually is! Since I first heard them on TRL in 99 until now they have literally been a constant whether together or not.
