    I'm gonna be out of town during that entire week where they'll be all over TV. I'm finally cutting cable in a couple of weeks, and I panicked for a second, but then I remembered the internet exists.

    Is blink 182 about to blow up like fallout boy did?

    This is huge for them.

    Wow exciting to see pop punk back in the national spotlight, if only for three minutes.

    Probably not cause the genre is off the radar but I would love a revival and for it to be more mainstream instead of what's been on the top 40 for the last few years

    Dude. Fall Out Boy blew up like blink-182. As big as they are now it is nowhere as big as blink was back in the day.

    Fun fact: Saw FOB play on a side stage at a blink concert.

    I get that, but blink disappeared for a while. Fallout boy way a scene band for a long time then they were everywhere. That's why I was using that example. Not trying to compare the band's.

    The last time I saw blink Scott was drumming(some younger fans might not remember him). Maybe fallout was a bad example, I just see blink 182 about to break out like never before in the main stream. Bigger than the early 90s-00's.

    I see them re-breaking out for lack of better terms. But bigger than they were in the early 00's might be a stretch. They were literally EVERYWHERE back then and their songs had huge crossover mainstream appeal. Not saying it's not possible, but looking forward to the ride!

    Fall Out Boy wasn't really a scene band after FUCT.

    I agree with you. It's going to be a fun ride, it's been so long since I've seen so much blink 182 attention. It's going to be a fun summer.

    Yes and that's about the time they started getting bigger and bigger. They were a scene band with take this to your grave, then they were everywhere. Which was awesome.

    Blink is already selling out amphitheaters pre record release. They are still huge.

    Wonder how Skiba feels about all these tv/radio spots and promos. As much as I love Alkaline Trio, I'm not sure those guys have ever had to experience this much spotlight.

    I never got into Fall Out Boy...don't like any of their songs and hate that they're often compared to Blink 182.
