So tell us a little bit about yourself mark. MARK- My name is Mark Hoppus, I play bass and sing in Blink-182. I'm a pisces. I like long walks on the beach, I like short walks on the beach. I like beaches and anything having to do with the beach. Why? MARK- Basically what I like to do when I get down to the beach is strip down naked, run into the water, then run and sit straight down into the soft sand. Wiggle around for a while, let the sand start to ferment and then I'll take a long walk down the beach. TOM- Let the sand ferment like cheese? MARK- More like fine wine. Do you like wine? MARK- I don't like wine. I like mixed drinks. I don't even like beer... Beer is for men, cocktails are for gentlemen. So what else shouldn't we know about you? MARK- I don't give up until the woman is completely satisfied. I won't quit. I'm like the terminator in bed. If I can't get the job done right then I just look at her and say, "I'll be back" and walk off, refuel, cruise back in and finish the job. And what about you Tom? What's your story? TOM- My name is Thomas Delonge. I play guitar and sing. Where did you grow up? TOM- In Poway, here in San Diego. I went to Poway High School, graduated from there went one year to junior college. I took a human sexuality course and... MARK- He graduated Magnum Cums Louder. TOM- Actually the class was really fun and I think later in life I'm going to be a surrogate partner. I'm going to grad. school for that right now. I'm starting out as a stunt person on pornos. Ok Scott, tell us a little about yourself. SCOTT- I'm Scott Raynor and I play the drums and I have to say that I take up the majority of the good looks in the band. MARK- He hogs all the good looks. TOM- Like all the good looking guys... he hogs them all. MARK- He hog ties all the good looking dudes. So do you get all the girls. Don't you have a girlfriend? SCOTT- Yeah, I have a girlfriend. Tom has a girlfriend also who apparently likes ugly guys. TOM- She looks for what's inside. MARK- She looks for what's inside. She's a proctologist. TOM- She gave me a proctology exam. We both have girlfriends and Mark doesn't. What's it like on the road with Blink-182? MARK- It seems like every day one of us is taking a crap. TOM- Like every single day, like poop every day. Our van doors are sealed with muck residue of fart and dude smells. SCOTT- Being on the road is a lot of fun and a lot of work. We pass the time by making stupid jokes. You don't say. MARK- It's not so mush the jokes as it is Tom will be in back of the bus totally naked. How is it like being sponsored by Billabong? TOM- They leave their back door open at night and we sneak in and steal stuff. MARK- The guys that run Billabong are super cool people and help us out a whole lot with tours and covering the areas of unwanted fat on their bodies. They design cloths especially for me because I'm pulling a lot of weight. Paul keeps saying he's a really good kisser, but I don't know what that means. I haven't experienced that. |
