I saw Frances Bean at a Blink 182 show. And she was with a guy who looked just like Kurt Cobain.
I was really into Blink-182 and punk bands like NOFX and MXPX.
I love Nirvana, Weezer and a lot of pop punk stuff - Blink-182, I loved.
If we play to first time Blink 182 listeners, it's good they are listening to us and not the Backstreet Boys. Old Fans or new fans, it's all the same to us.
It's American Alternative radio stations that bug me. We're considered Alternative, but don't expect us to be played next to Blink 182 and Offspring. We're hardly of that generation.
When I was around 13 years old, I started playing in bands and became obsessed with Blink-182 and Newfound Glory. I didn't pay attention to country music anymore; I wanted to do more pop rock stuff.
We just write down a bunch of words, and pray to god they make sense. And if we don't, it doesn't matter, we're artists.
The past is only the future with the lights on
I was in a really crummy pop-punk band. I think we did a whole bunch of Blink-182 covers, and we were on the fringe of losers and jocks. So we invited all the cool kids to come watch us play in our bass player's brother's bedroom. And it was terrible, but everyone thought we were so cool.
Enema of the State song is kind of like a tattoo, like a moment in time, but it aged well. It's not like one that you're looking at like, "Aw, God, I gotta get that s**t removed." It's something we're proud of.
I applaud anyone who thinks I'm good-looking and invite them into my world.
Travis Barker is one of the greatest drummers ever, and all the guys in blink are really good songwriters.
True happiness for me is playing a concert in Blink-182, and then hanging out with my friends and my wife and son, and going out for Mexican food.
