Apple Podcasts5someone on a planeUnited States7 years ago - ..
I have to say that yes it's true that not many of the kids from this new generation are into the old kind of punk rock but there are still some of us, I would have to say that I honestly liked the older blink-182 with Tom and Mark. There still a good band but I have to say I was very disappointed when I had found out that Tom was no longer in the band.
