i agree with the mark/tom dynamic wholeheartedly, i was watching this punk rock mba video the other day and he goes back to an old AVA video and he talks about how tom is an excellent song writer and just has a certain energy about him that matt doesnt have. its around the 15:30 mark
im not a big fan but his stuff pops up here and there i can't resist a good clickbait, sometimes i agree, sometimes i don't, but it's all in good fun
The shit Mark was talking about with chemo nurses suiting up in Hazmat suits is super real and it’s fucking WILD. Like it’s so impossible not to be super sketched the fuck out when they come in with “medicine.”
Haven’t seen much discussion on “Bad News” here but that song is so purely pop-punk and fun and works so well. Love the 1/2 step down in the chorus from Travis on the second repeat. I already was banging my head to it.
yeah scary stuff, especially with all the covid stuff and everything else, plus his age. im glad hes doing better
It’s just super bananas to have a shitty period of my life so perfectly encapsulated by Blink-182 of all bands lol. That song hit me like a ton of bricks.
Watching these AVA videos in my countdown, I hope we never have to witness no guitar, serious dancing/stancing Tom ever again. Sorry for my rambling, edible and the 2nd bottle of wine is about to be opened.
