blink-182 Just About to Walk Onstage at the Grammy’s
Just before we walked onstage at the Grammy’s, the three of us were huddled backstage in the basement of the Staples Center in a crowded holding area. The people who ran the show were going over our presentation and begging us not to go off-script. In the middle of the mayhem, our manager Paul Rosenberg took a photo that may turn out to be the best photo of all time. Travis looks like Travis. I look like a bad wax figurine, and Tom just looks scared. For those who dare, you can see the snap on Paul’s blog, at paulrosenblog.com

February 11th, 2009 at 12:35 am
shit first comment, i miss you guys..
February 11th, 2009 at 12:36 am
That’s a great photo. I wish Tom didn’t seem so out of place during the presentation. It was exciting to watch none the less. I was too young to see you guy’s before the hiatus, and am very VERY excited to see you when you come to town here in AZ!
(I can’t believe Devoe is on management)
Peace,
Greg.
February 11th, 2009 at 12:40 am

February 11th, 2009 at 12:41 am

February 11th, 2009 at 12:46 am
Whoa, that’s an unusual look on your face right there, Mark xD
That no-teeth smile scares the crap out of me xP
February 11th, 2009 at 12:51 am
intense!
February 11th, 2009 at 12:53 am
haha. you guys look great. also- i love that despite the years you’ve all been apart, stage production is still terrified of your shenanigans. awesome.
February 11th, 2009 at 1:00 am

so catchy.
btw I love your new song maaaaaark!
February 11th, 2009 at 1:03 am

February 11th, 2009 at 1:14 am
Love it! and welcome back, gonna be a great summer, can’t wait!
February 11th, 2009 at 1:15 am
lmao nice photo! Tom looks like someone just pinched his ass. BTW I was wondering how you guys choose what band/bands open for you guys when you go on tour. You should SERIOUSLY check out A Turnaround Life…they are amazing! =) Kristie
February 11th, 2009 at 1:19 am
Dude tell Tom to ditch the nut huggers and put some Skate/Surf clothes on.
February 11th, 2009 at 1:22 am
Haha, I suppose I should’ve figured it was scripted. I think the announcement would’ve been much more awesome and epic if you went just a liiiiittle off-script.
Blink is back, mother fuckers!!!
That picture is brilliant, by the way. Heh, the first picture as far as I know of the reunited Blink-182… I don’t think you all could’ve picked a better one if you tried.
February 11th, 2009 at 1:23 am
Tom probably saw a ghost behind paul, or maybe an alien
February 11th, 2009 at 1:24 am
JAJAJJAJAJAJA…. very funny!

LMFAO best new blink picture possible. Tom looks like he’s about to shit himself though. Did he shit his pants the night before and not shower yet? Not saying that he shits himself while he’s sleeping or anything…
February 11th, 2009 at 5:10 pm
tom!
lmao evil on your shirt, do we have some final destination 3 stuff going on D:
February 11th, 2009 at 7:27 pm

Mark, I can only imagine how tempted you were to scream your infamous “Fuck yeah!” on stage.
February 12th, 2009 at 4:13 pm
cute!
February 13th, 2009 at 10:00 am
Hahaha awesome, Tom is lookin’ creepy in that pic ^^
February 13th, 2009 at 11:31 am
