It all began in the year 1992. A band in San Diego was formed by three rulers of rock. Or you could say, "soon to become rulers of rock". The band's members were Tom Delonge on electric guitar , Mark Hoppus on bass, and Scott Raynor on drumbs. In the year 1993 Blink-182 had decided on the band name Blink. They then released a cassette only demo called Flyswatter. Soon after that, a lawsuit from an irish band with pretty much the same exact name as blink, had forced the trio to change their band name from Blink to Blink-182. Then in 1994, they released their first full length album on cd called "Buddha", which was not very much of a good success. But Later in the year, Blink-182 signed with the grilled cheeselabel and cargo records so they could release a full length album featuring a few songs from Buddha. The album cheshire cat had 16 songs and two singles called M+Ms and Wasting Time, and those singles got blink-182 on the road to success. Three years later, Blink-182 released another cargo records cd entitled "Dude Ranch", which got them to become very popular. Dude ranch had 15 songs. There were 5 singles from the cds such as "Dammit (growing up) which hit nation wide, or Josie which also hit nation wide. The other singles were Dick Lips, Apple Shampoo, and Lemmings which was released earlier in 1995 as a single. After Dude Ranch's success had passed, scott raynor left the band, and was soon replaced with drummer Travis Barker. Travis Barker had joined the band just in time, because their next album "Enema of the State" which was released in 1999, would sell out fast. Enema of the State went multi-platinum all across the world selling millions of copies everywhere. The cd had three singles which were, What's My Age Again?, All the Small Things, and Adam's Song.Blink-182 went and performed their concert for the Enema of the State album, and a few songs from dude ranch and cheshire cat, and recorded this whole live concert onto the most popular blink-182 album, "The Mark, Tom, and Travis Show", which was released in 2000 and sold millions of records everywhere. The live album featured a new hit single song called Man Overboard. After that they toured the world performing concerts everywhere. When they got back, they began working on the next album entitled "Take off Your Pants and Jacket". The album was released in June 2001, it featured three hit singles and sold almost as much copies as Enema of the State. The singles from the album were The Rock Show, Stay Together For the Kids, and the ever popular First date which was always being played on the radio. They then went on a japan tour and performed live in Tokyo. When the got back to the U.S. , they started working on the next album. The album was not finished for two and a half years. In october 2003, blink-182 released a single from their new album which would be released soon. The single was entitled Feeling This. The song Feeling this became very popular very quickly. Soon after that, they finished shooting the video for feeling this and released in the same month as the single was released. Blink-182 released their next album in November, and this album was self-titled. It also had three singles, which were Feeling This, as you know, I miss you which soon on January 26th had released it's video, and Stockholm syndrome which would be released as a single soon. Blink-182 has become a very successful band and will get better in the future.

| tom and mark seem to hate each other so ig
uess they wont be coming back.why dont you
listen to their new new bands,you might like
them? | going-through-a-phase | sucks that they hate each other....they were
friends for a really long time | blackrain13 | Travis is with the Transplants now.
They're oooooookkkkkkkk....nothing
special. | CuteWhenYouScream | Ive got a plus-44 song. Its ok. And I heard
something from AAA. Only a bit though but it
seemed good. Saw them in kerrang and hey are
the randomest looking band ever. Its cool,
they are all different. | agirlcalledkill | im not sure if they will get bak together
cozz for the peep with troat cancer or
watever hes got, he aint gonna get better for
agers is he?
i aint a huge fan but i think there is a lil
possibilty that they'll get bak together!
i'll be waiting with u all! cya xxx | rock_punk_swainy | well it was really just time 4 them 2 apart
they all had many different bands n they just
wanted new bands as well bt they still made
their gr8 music n now the still do bt with
ova ppl | cheezypeas | I am a huge fan of Blink 182, but right now I
know it is impossible for them to be Blink
182 again because Scott quit. Travis
wasn't the only drummer for Blink 182. I
was never able to see them in concert, AvA
and Plus 44 are good and all but I'd like
to hear Dammit, I Miss You, Whats My Age
Again and all of their other songs they play,
exspecially Man Overboard, the first song I
ever heard by Blink 182. Blink 182 divided by
two equals Plus 44 and Angels and Airwaves,
but it also kind of split how good they are. | Fuckin-Canadian | I miss Blink 182 too, i hate listening to any
of their cd's knowing that their never
gonna get back together. I miss them and
their music rock so fucking hard. | CollisionOfYourKiss | ATTENTION BLINK 182 FANS!!!!
I AM JOSH TALBOT. I come from a country town
in Australia. I am just a small percentage of
the blink fans in the world but I’m fed up
with waiting, something needs to be done!
This is my plan- ROCK FOR BLINK 2012! If you
hav seen this post on either a forum, bebo or
the like, keep it moving! As Blink fans, we
need to make a commitment. We ALL meet in
Blink 182’s origin of San Diego, California
in 2012 and we ALL play/sing/dance/whatever
in a massive concert called “ROCK FOR BLINK”.
Featuring ONLY blink 182 songs and a massive
screen with heaps of videos from when Mark
and Tom were friends!! Posting shit on the
internet like “I wish they would make up”
isn’t gonna work guys! We need to make a
stand! If you are a dedicated Blink fan you
WILL be in San Diego, California in 2012
wearing a Blink 182 or Atticus T-Shirt!! The
reason for the T-Shirt is so that all of us
other fans know that you are there for the
concert and so we can locate each other
easier. Now, this isn’t going to work without
cash. So if you are going to be there,
EVERYONE has to pitch in 50 bucks. If you
would like to contact me about this plan, my
MSN address is scolded_cat@hotmail.com. My
home Email address is jayenem@westnet.com.au.
And my bebo is http://punk-rocks-89.bebo.com.
Please if you email that home address put the
subject as “ROCK FOR BLINK”. Remember the
good times guys? Lets MAKE these stubborn ass
boys remember em too. | simplefan | could you sum that up?? I was to lazy to read
it all | Retard-4-Life | no, if ur not a real blink fan then ur not my
target audience anyway. | simplefan | | | |
