Hey, I'm Charlie Bartlett and this is my blog about teen movies, music, videos, personal rants. Feel free to make a request or ask advice and dont forget to register!
Words can’t describe how happy I was when I heard Blink-182 got back together! I seriously can’t WAIT until they come to my city cuz i’ll go friggin CRAZY at the concert!!! This documentary gives an insight to blink-182 like never before. It’s sort of like MTV Diaries but longer and uncensored. I know there’s a Urethra Chronicles 2, but it sucks compared to this one because it doesn’t have nearly as many 1 on 1 interviews and good concert footage.

This interview explains why I love this band so much. The lady has NO IDEA wtf they are saying and she just goes with it. I especially like the part around the 3:00 mark when Tom explains that people who are in bands that say “the don’t care” how successful they are are full of shit.
I realize that I’ve already shared the whole blink-182 discography, but this song still needs it’s own post. It describes my life PERFECTLY (well, almost). Especially since I seriously thought of running away at one point. “Shut the fuck up” refers to when Tom and Mark were practicing and one of their parents would tell them to turn their music down and get a job.
This is probably my favorite AVA song (lyrically at least) since Tom actually addresses his past band (blink-182) and his high school history. Since, I too dream of becoming famous someday, this is very inspirational. What more can I say? TOM ROCKS!
Hell yeah! All of the blink-182 music videos. Just sit back, relax, and ROCK OUT! Out of all of their music videos, I have to say that I like “The Rock Show” the best (even though Feeling This is pretty cool too). The song may not be that great, but the video is AWESOME. I couldn’t think of a better way to waste money. Read more…
Angels and Airwaves is Tom from blink-182’s “new” band. I STILL think that blink-182 was a better band live, but Angels and Airwaves is more original.
I went to Warped tour yesterday just to see Angels and Airwaves (since this album is AMAZING) but I, have to say, it was just OK (Yes, I’m still sad that I won’t get the blink-182 experience that I’ve always wanted.) On a side note, Matisyahu kicked everyone’s ass, even Travis from Gym Class Heroes was impressed. Then I remembered that some of this stuff is IMPOSSIBLE to play live since there are so many guitar/keyboard parts that would require more than 4 people to play them. STILL, this is one of the best albums I’ve ever listened to. I listen to it almost every time I can’t sleep (which is a LOT mind you) and it never fails to inspire me. I recommend loading this in your MP3 player and listening to it in the dark while lying down before you go to bed.
The first time I listened to it that way I SWEAR I got a natural high. This is perhaps the most relaxing album you’ll ever listen to with a Parental Advisory warning on it (lol).
One of the greatest/underappreciated bands of all time! I feel like Tom, Mark, and Travis raised me because all of these songs are basically exclusively FOR teens. I probably listened to more blink-182 than ANY other music EVER when I was in high school because of the fact that their songs are simple and catchy, and also talk about subjects that teens can relate to (sex, drugs, what a fucking hassle parents can be, and just about any crazy random shit you can think of). When I first heard blink-182 in middle school I COULDN’T STAND THEM because I thought Tom’s voice was annoying as hell. But after a while of getting used to it (it took about a week mind you) I realized that his voice was PERFECT for teen songs. It’s too bad they broke up in 2005, but all of these songs remain a soundtrack to my high school life.
