hey so i pretty much tuned out of blink when the "hiatus" happened, can anyone fill me in about the boys and were they are, i honestly cant be ****ed to go back pages to check it out

well mark and trav have a new band [url]www.plus-44.com[/url] and thats bout all

FROM THE OTHER PAGE, CANT BE ARSED QOUTEING

Third Wave pop-punk? what the hell.

Plus emos good, theres still lot of good pop-punk bands, that people say are emo, but there not. Peoples tastes change, so music and everything else does too.

right i didnt quite catch that

wats ur fav song off flyswatter people

Cant understand most of them, the quality is quite poor.

And you know you dont have to post another message when you change subject

woops sorry anyways i finnaly got a picture of me and my mark hoppus bass sorry bout the colours and the shltty quality (taken off my video camera)

Howcome its like that?

Nice bass though

i dont like the mark hoppus bass, you cannot vary the tone of the bass. it sounds **** at gigs.

I might get one, im toying with the idea.

I have my bass set up at the minute so it only uses one pickup and, the other does nothing, and my tone is always full.

If i want a lower sound, i push my footpedals, i can get 4 or 5 varyed tones from pushing my pedals, from very livly bouncy sounding, to nice and mellow, to ultra deep.

yeah but they sound really tinny through a regular amp. you need a good rig to get a decent sound out of them.

[QUOTE=10571z]wats ur fav song off flyswatter people[/QUOTE]

I don't know - maybe "Red Skies" - like Chodaboy said it's kinda hard to understand most of them so I dont listen to it that much

Here my "summarizing" post of the day:

I do like the emo kinda stuff, but we need a happy medium between the two (the other bing immature and playful).

Flyswatter? never heard any of the songs from it.

My J-bass is set with full tone, and the high pickup is turned all the way down. Makes it sound nice 'n' chunky :thumb:

Wow, that was a weak summarizing post. :wave:

Dammit (Dude Ranch)
Anthem (Enema of the State)
Click Lips (Dude Ranch)

Yet this all depends on each musician's ability. For example, are you guys JUST starting out? A lot of guitarists who just picked up the guitar would have some problems learning the picking to Stay Together for The Kids, also the drumming from Enema of the State and on is a little intense due to Travis Barker.

Anyway, I would try those three I listed, see how it works out.

yes we are Just starting out. tnx for the info :thumb:

No problem, and good luck with the band :D

[QUOTE=boxcar blinker]I don't know what happened, but many pop-punk bands randomly went mature and more in serious. I blame it on the new fad "emo", once that hit it big and escaped the underground, music went to hell literally. The bright sunny music of the 90's was replaced with pain, suffering, tears..... basically a bunch of bands complainning.

I'm hoping for a third wave of pop-punk to hit that's actually pop-punk... An up-beat, fun, immature, version of punk.[/QUOTE]
Seriously, I miss the mid and late 90's so much. :upset:

It wasn't so much about being immature, it was more about just loving life, that's what was so great about pop-punk. Blink and others were perfect examples of this.

Dunno if anyone else has thought of this, but the other day I was listening to "I'm Lost Without You" (which I love) and was kind of thinking about how it might have been kind of an indicator of what was to come. It's a really long, fairly sad and melancholy song that is themed around a troubled relationship. Also it is placed at the very end of their last CD. I was really bored at the time, but it did get me thinking, maybe they knew this was coming.

An additional piece of advice I have is to learn some relatively easy, non-blink stuff. Playing the same music a lot in front of others can annoy and anger people.

Yeah, it almost signifies the end of Blink or something. But I think it's a nice song to go out on, very sweet and thoughtful.

yeh thats true

adams song is probably the hardest blink song for the drummer.
id go with

rock show
dammit
go
first date
wendy clear

but trust me you dont wnana be stuck into playing all blink songs try cute without the e its really easy and good if u have 2 vocalists

Cute Without The E is a good song, but you'd need a good screaming person, and someone with a really emotional voice otherwise it'd sound weak. I'd personally go for an older Blink song, for less intense drumming.

theres no screaming in cute without the e

Well then...prove me wrong why don't you...

wat part has screaming qoute the lyrics
