Blink-182 - Live Acoustic Session for Absolute Radio

Mark FUCKING Hoppus! mid 40's and sounding amazing. Amazing work by skiba also

[@Tom364]

because they changed the songs to a different octave if you listened to their tour vids mark doesn't sound good at all

[@783geordie783]

People who argue about blink with tom compared to matt, i feel like I would rather listen to this or any variation of blink when we could be getting no new blink at all

[@PeckerComics]

the drums really drive "I Miss You" it just sounds so empty

[@philcodeca]

metayouth 100% agree. I also realise he is obviously playing the correct bass line to the song but he really should be playing some more notes in the verse. It sounds so, so weak

[@isetmfriendsofire]

I think it just needs a little more of a percussive playing style if it's gonna be drumless.

[@TheFedoraNinja]

@@isetmfriendsofire my thoughts exactly

[@MaxiFernandez1998]

Seems that Mark is so proud of Matt's singing

[@randallflagg997]

I think it was recorded when Matt just joined the band so Mark was instilling confidence in Matt.

[@randallflagg997]

But I’m proud of Matt’s singing, especially with the new material.

[@Zombikazi]

They should make an "Unplugged" album, is that still a thing? ...o wait those were produced by Mtv. . ... Do they still produce music? What f*cking year is it??

I miss the old B182, but I seriously doubt that Tom could have this much control over his voice while live

[@punkgrl325]

True, but he'd be much stronger on the guitar.

[@punkgrl325]

@@ExmomoIt depends on the song. There is also not much contrast between Mark and Matt’s voice, which is less interesting, but I’m just glad Blink is still around.

[@tuffmike7487]

Dear Blink182, I hope y’all continue to be proud of your songs. Maybe y’all are afraid that people will make fun of you cause you were forced to do an acoustic set. But I sang every word. Even when you’re bad you’re good. THATS WHY WE LOVE BLINK because you’re our heroes🔥

[@bennymcgehee3305]

If tom rejoined and matt stayed, blink 182 would have the possibility to make some amazing music and acoustics to follow. Just a high thought 🤪

[@Goodpizzaa]

I've been pondering that idea for a long time. If Tom joined AND Matt stayed. I love how Mark and Matt's voice can harmonize well and play off each other. Tom does add some stark contrast to Mark and Matt's vocals. I've been listening to blink for 20+ years now and every album they release I like more then the previous one. Nine is by far my favorite. I think Matt Skiba is one of the few who could've joined and I would've still been ok calling them blink 182. I liked some of Alkaline's songs when I was younger, especially radio (which was promptly turned off in the car the first time I put it on after a weird look from my dad). Matt really fits in with blink well. I know Tom is way different now and I think he just had so many goals and didn't want to wait until he was grey haired to go after them. Imagine blink with a lead and rythym guitar. Two singers who can harmonize very well if need be and a big contrasting vocal in Tom (as well as style). I think if they gave the idea a chance and sat down and really tried to see if all four could write music together and what it would sound like and go for it we could see something amazing. It would really break the dynamic of blink having in this scenario three singers and a lead + rythym for the first time to go along with it. I think it'd fucking rock but that's just me and I could be wrong. I'll keep loving their music like I have been. It's like their music grew up as I did so it's always stayed really relevant for me.

[@emmettthompson5036]

That's what I was thinking when John F rejoined RHCP but instead they kicked out Josh 😥

HOME IS SUCH A LONELY PLACE WITHOUT YOU HOME IS SUCH A LONLEY PLACE!

[@nathanxbond]

Because that song would be difficult to pull off live. It's very over produced and has strings and other shit they wouldn't be able to replicate live. Edit: I made it sound like I don't like this song but I do! They could probably figure out a way to pull it off.

[@cinimod1077]

where is your source? XD

[@BaronVonBielski]

Compared to other recent live performances yes this is good. Compared to any other bands it's shit. Most bands sound fantastic in an acoustic setting due to singing so softly. Even tom sounds fucking amazing live while playing acoustically. Much better then these two do. Not to mention their recent live performances are horrendous. Marks voice is gone. Matt is tone def. together it's horrible noise. Don't get me wrong, I love punk music. I love blink. They just get worse live as they get older and Matt didn't help he can't sing. Saying any different is just being ignorant.

[@alltheinnocence]

That harmony at 11:00 though

[@TheTalolokins]

Damn I catched that and you're right!

[@grockgrock75]

,,this is really good...if 90% of people who is comenting this would really know how difficult is to play an acoustic show and not make mistakes.. even with the experience of this guys...there ll be less complainings...more over to put the blink style in acoustic way...great work great band
