Tom DeLonge & Blink~182
(If you don't know who that is you really do suck. Eheh I mean, you poor unenlightened person.)
THOMAS DELONGE
Why have I chosen to do a
page on Tom DeLonge? You might also be asking why have I chosen
to do another page?
The answers to both questions are easy.
I make these pages to torment you.
And the first question, well it should be obvious! Tom DeLonge is one of the raddest band members around. If you don't like him you can just die.
This isn't one of those REALLY pathetic fixations where I say things like 'Oh I love him he is so gorgeous and I'm going to do him one day!'
No it is not. It's just a pathetic fixation. I realise that I'll *sigh* probably never meet him, let alone do him. I just think he's a rad person. And I like his singing voice. That's my personal opinion and I'm indifferent if you don't like it. Enough of my babbling. Here's the info which I mostly stole from other pages and put together. If it's wrong, sorry but don't sue me.
SHORT: Thomas DeLonge was born December 13, 1975. He will eventually and unfortunately die.
NOT AS SHORT: Tom 'Hot Pants' DeLonge was born December 13, 1975, making him a Sagittarius. (It strikes me as pathetic that I just looked that up.)
I have no idea what his parent's names are or if he has any brothers or sisters. But I do know he was born in San Diego and went to Poway High School. Wa-hey. Some information that I DO have!
He sings and plays guitar for Blink 182 (who do rule). He uses:
Fender America Standard Stratocaster, Dimarrrzio X2N pickups, Mesa-Boogie triple rectifier amp and two Mesa-Boogie 412 cabinets.
Some miscellaneous things that I have found include that he has a girlfriend called Jen (?), he came up with the idea of the Blink 182 rabbit and he loves aliens.
His favourite band is Menudo and his favourite movie is Foreskin Gump (whose isn't?). He was in a movie, 'Idle Hands' about some dude with a possessed hand. He was the drive-through dude whose line was 'Alright.' He's also got plans for a movie called 'Prankster'. The whole band performs 'Mutt' from their new album in another movie East Great Falls High.
Apparently he likes Meg Ryan and wears boxers. He was homecoming king.
And he dyes his hair a lot which could be a major reason for my fixation.
QUOTES FROM TD
I stole these from places. I can't remember where. Just search for Tom DeLonge and find 'em yourselves. Unless you're lazy like me.
- about performing 'Mutt' and the movie EAST GREAT FALLS HIGH (renamed American Pie)
"The song is about a guy and a girl that just love to have sex. And the movie is about a bunch of guys trying to get laid before they graduate. That's why we wanted to be a part of it."
- on the movie EAST GREAT FALLS HIGH (renamed American Pie)
"We played a song and then we walked over to a computer and reacted to a naked girl on a computer screen."
- the concept of 'Prankster'.
"It's about a bunch of guys pulling jokes on each other, trying to fulfill a bet with a woman and sexual acts."
- his maturity and genitalia
"I haven't grown up at all since I was a freshmen in high school, and neither has my penis."
- on the lyrical content of Blink 182's songs
"We take our music very seriously. Humor has become so cliche and boring that nothing's funny anymore unless it involves something totally disgusting that offends somebody or makes them feel really uncomfortable."
- on Blink 182
"Some people think we're idiots and perverts, which we are. But we don't want to act like adults. Anybody who can stay in a state of adolescence will be much better off later on. Look at people who are working nine-to-five jobs out of college, and look at professional skateboarders or guys in punk bands. See who's having more fun."
Blink~182
This is where I babble a bit more, this time about Blink 182.
Blink 182 are one of San Diego's highest selling independent bands. They've been around since 1992 and basically, they rule.
The Blink consists of Mark Hoppus (bass, vocals), Tom DeLonge (guitar, vocals) and Travis Barker (drums). Scott Raynor was replaced by Travis on drums because he had to go to school or something.
The main albums they've released are 'Buddha', 'Cheshire Cat', 'Dude Ranch' and 'Enema Of The State'. All are great - then again they ARE Blink 182 albums.
They're crazy and I love 'em. I can proudly say that I liked them before 'Josie' and 'Dammit' were considered 'cool'.
My favourite songs are Carousel, Untitled and Dumpweed but I love all of their songs.
They make me happy.
I have a lot more than 2 links but these are the only ones I really felt like putting in (unfortunately for YOU - heheh just joshin')
- it's pretty self-explanatory I think...
- this is a very smart boy - he wrote a song 'Thank You Blink 182' and he swears in his site a lot which I like.
THAT IS ALL.
