We caught up with Tom at the Angels and Airwaves gig in Manchester this April. He talks about molesting sheep, his journey from Blink to AvA and loads more! Check it out!
Great interview. Gotta be honest, I've never really given AvA a shot after being resentful of blink's hiatus and hearing my "emo" next door neighbour blast one of their songs which just sounded like Tom whining 'it hurts it hurts it hurts' through the wall, not sure what song it's from... but I feel pretty inspired to listen to their music after hearing that they're inspired by radiohead and artistic themes in their music :)
To me he's a terrible singer.. I just came here to see what his voice was like. ... How does he think This is rock?!?! It sounds like it was from 1920. Rock is Sleeping with sirens, Pierce the Veil, Skillet for all i care! This isn't Rock!!
".... And Im handsome, quite, devilishly so..."
Imma die without the amount I love Tom and Blink.
He was a pleasure to interview - although he was tired he was really up for it
This was such a good interview, Tom is just so genuine and sincere. Happy to have met him :)
Yeah this was at an Angels and Airwaves gig so he was on AVA mode
Tom Delonge is my inspiration and will always be my inspiration!
Had to laugh at the end here because i'm literally sitting here with no pants on.
Nobody wants to know that
oh my.... he's so beautiful
"I've seen my bass player naked quite a few times...but it's not quite the same" hahaha Tom you legend!
Meeting him was even more so!
That's because this was an AVA show we met him at
what a perfect human.
He looks adorable in long sleeves
this man is so inspirational in his music
Thanks for a great interview Tom! Muah!

I love that he assumes he's gonna have sex with a male sheep.
loo is an english term so i don't blame him for being confused haha so cute though

Haha, I love how confused he is when the guy asks if he's ever needed the loo on stage.

i have no idea who you're talking about but based on what you've said, i don't like sleeping with sirens. well written!
when he said "all the" at 0:48 i expected him to finish with "small things"
still waiting for that film score :p

i touched his hand on the 7th june 2012 :D!
I WASN'T WEARING ANY PANTS. HOLY SHIT HE KNEW.
he looks so tired!
He just can't be serious, not even trying! :D
He ran off stage at Tinley park to pee while Mark played jazz music haha.
fuck strange times will be the best !!!!!!!!!!!
how did he know I don't have pants on?
how did he know i wasn't wearing any!!
cheers b182fan97 :)
He thinks of blink as a small success?
why does he hate talking about blink :(
haha brilliant
How does a channel with Tom 242 subscribers get an interview with Tom Delonge?
Or do you have a bigger business outside of RUclips?
did he just say that blink 182 was a small success? ouch x.x i love blink...

I really hope you're joking.
