It will be all “Love,” all the time for Tom DeLonge’s Angels & Airwaves this year.
Blink-182’s Tom DeLonge already wears many hats: singer/guitarist, clothing-line impresario, political activist. Now he’s adding another cap to his spiky dome: music video director. DeLonge took time off from stumping for Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry. On their Web site, TBS wrote that “We spent a very hectic 48 hours flying from Dallas to L.A. back to Nashville to shoot our next video with our good friend Thomas DeLonge. He had a great visual concept and was a very enthusiastic, focused and attentive first-time director. “There is a lot of colorful live performance footage as well,” the statement continued. “The… Read more »
I don’t know if you’ve noticed lately but we kind of love space. We love aliens, we love science fiction, we love Neil DeGrasse Tyson, and we definitely love Tom DeLonge saying “I told you so” to the CIA when they finally released footage of a UFO. We love it all! That’s why we are so excited that the Rioters of Geek Girl Riot will be hosting their first ever live taping of their show at The Outpost Con this Saturday, October 24th from 11:00am PST – 12:00pm PST.

Believe it or not, in April 2015, Sabrina Carpenter released her debut album Eyes Wide Open. (yes, she has been grinding in the music industry well before the launch of “Espresso.”) This isn’t the only important record released a decade ago. Notably, 2015 was the release year of some of the most iconic records in the alternative scene—from indie to pop-punk. These 2015 albums are turning 10 this April 2025, and we still can’t believe it. Tom DeLonge — To The Stars…Demos, Odds and Ends Released: April 21, 2015 via To The Stars After parting ways with blink-182 in January 2015,… Read more »
It seems like every major musical artist has found box-office success in the form of an Oscar-worthy biopic. From Timothée Chalamet starring in A Complete Unknown as Bob Dylan to Rami Malek’s portrayal of Queen‘s Freddie Mercury in Bohemian Rhapsody, there are many rock star movies you need to add to your watchlist. P.S. If you need a goofy “biopic,” then Weird: The Al Yankovic Story starring Daniel Radcliffe is the flick for you. In recent news, Green Day shared that they are currently developing a comedy movie inspired by their early days touring in a van called New Years… Read more »
On February 13, blink-182 and Alkaline Trio performed at The Hollywood Palladium to raise funds for victims of the LA wildfires. Charities supported included the LAFD Foundation, the California Fire Foundation, the Anti-Recidivism Coalition, and the Pasadena Humane Society. Of course, with such an astounding bill, blink-182 pulled out all the stops for fans, including bringing out Alkaline Trio frontman, and former frontman of blink, Matt Skiba. Skiba, Tom DeLonge, Mark Hoppus, and Travis Barker all teamed up to perform “Bored To Death,” the hit track from 2016 LP California. Hoppus hilariously introduced Skiba onstage as a “contest winner.” This… Read more »
