New Blink

I have been a Blink 182 fan since day one (1990 something). I remember listening to my dubbed copy of Chesire Cat over and over. I knew it wasn't a musical masterpiece but it was catchy, fun and defined where I was at in life. I was hooked. Over the years I remained a fan of all things Blink whether it was their side bands, media projects, clothing companies, etc etc. Yes, this might sound a bit obsessive but I always felt connected in a way. Blink was the background noise during my teens and early twenties. I felt like they were into the same shit as me or maybe that's just what I told myself.

Mark called my college apartment at SDSU after my roommate launched blow pops onto the stage during their on campus show. I never knew exactly what she wrote but the G rated version was probably something like "for a good time, call Jaci." Unfortunately no one was home when he called but we had Mark's message on our answering machine for weeks after. I remember listening to Drop Your Pants and Jacket while I was living in Singapore. I remember winning tickets, rad seats by the way, from 91X (San Diego rock radio station). I have tons of Blink memories and could go on and on.

So now I'm 31 years old, married with children and I still get the chills when I hear Blink is recording a new album. Mad respect for Mark, Tom and Travis. Enjoy their new song. Stay stoked!

This logo is easily one of the legends in the street wear game. I remember my first S shirt back in 1993. I was sooo stoked to wear it to my "free dress day" at catholic school. Life was simple then...

Shawn still carries the torch yet it burns a little different these days. His blog is one of my favs for its simplicity. Thanks for the inspiration.

Hello again
