:[ mattlex music review ]:
The new blink 182 is back!!! im so delighted and boasted in my soul when i learn of this. Blink 182 has always been my all time favourite band. Their songs has been music to me for a decade. They're the greatest pop/punk rock band ever. (i love greenday too!) The guys grew old and settles down in their success. Their greatest hits album came out arnd end 2005. Soon i learn something of their fall out and them venturing into different bands and music genre. And i thought that was it. The greatest band ever..
But their back for another shot. And they have a new name to go with it. its call Plus44. -.-
Check out thier webby and their new songs.. http://www.plusfortyfour.com/
2 out of 3 original blink 182 members are in. namely Travis Barker and Mark Hoppus. with additional of 2 relatively unknown musicians. Tom Delonge is out.
Life after Blink 182
Tom Delonge -
Apparrently Tom fall out with Mark and Travis and he started a new band with 3 other musicians called Angels and Airwaves (AVA). One of them is well known as the drummer for The Offsprings. AVA music style is about World War 2 and Peacetime and they are making a movie with relation to their musical direction. Hmm.. its something new.
Travis Barker -
He starred in the reality TV show Meet the Barkers where it film his domestic life with engaged - married - nw divorced partner Shanna. (former Miss USA) He birthforth his clothing line Famous Stars & Straps. (so proud to own one of their Tee thx to W279) He was in the band called The Transplant. But Transplant didnt realli expose his awesome, unbeatable drumming skills and they have no hit songs. Than he venture into playing drumsbeats with techno music along DJ AM.
Mark Hoppus -
He didnt do much music after they disbanded. But he was doing some business and an online blogging for a website.
How +44 started.
Soon Mark went jamming in the basement of Travis house and got a punk female vocalist. Then she withdrew and along came 2 guy guitarist. and here we have plusfortyfour. Just like the name blink 182, i dont think the name of plus44 has any trivia to it.
Their instrumental are just as good. If not.. better. Travis, the star attraction, drum skill just improve by some notches. I dont realli enjoy their songs yet but im not giving up on them. They're great! I will b their 1st sporean fan.
Okok! I wonder how many of u read thru the whole plus44 entry to come to this section. If u wonder what tune is ringing thru my mind half of my time.. This will be..

:[ Happy 2007 ]:
I spent the last moments of 2006 on the beach of east coast park this year. Its a great place to be on a countdown evening.; away from the pushing crowd of orchard rd. Sitting on the beach looking at my time stating 3mins to the stroke of midnite. Suddenly i heard the fire works goes off. Opps!
Had a memorable time with the few fun bunch of pepz namely - Star, Kel, Miles, Ying, Emy, Karuna, JinHong & Lockees. Brought my guitar so played a few pieces into 2007. Sitting on the beach singing to the ships docking and passing by. Kel the guitar god took over and then, we have real music. haha. Kel, I like your mexican tune btw.
At 4am we were at marine parade mc'cafe. they play the best music. slow love songs and wat not. A few of us enjoyed them loads. Its hard to find 'real' 'good' music nowadays. yea starine? haha
Made our way home arnd 6am. For me, its been a long long time since i stayed up till a following morning.
Starine, wana thank you for ur graciousness towards me in 2006. I will be a better person in this year and the years ahead. Its great knowing you again in this 2 years. Its a priviledge for me. I believe you will soar like an eagle above the clouds.
Kel, hmm you probably wun see this but looking at hw ur pepz adore u, you realli are somebody sacrificial for them. Don't realli know you well enough but wana thank you for letting me be your fren. And thanks for teaching me guitaring for cell group meetings. like i said b4, there are a thousand other guitar players around but if you did not avail urself, there is no one else. Thank you man!
Miles, thanks for stepping out. You carry a different attitude towards giving and sowing. There is no one quite like you. And for you to take care of lil things knowing that they matters. You're great!
Ying, in a world of anxiety you always keep a cool head. gentleness is your strength yea. you are the few woman who are about to extinct in this modern day generation. haha glad to have known you for 2 years now! running 2gether in 2006! you're awesome!
Emy, haha its fun hanging out with ya! every outing with you is always interesting. you are always graceful towards this brethren a lil older than you. haha always interesting and sometimes amusing coming from you. Keep shining!
Jojo, even young of age, but carry urself soo well. thumbsup! Also Debbie's true fren! if you can visit her more often. haha. One thing i will rem of you in 2006 is angmo bois. haha Thanks for making me have a good view of ang mos. and gracing my blog ever often.
okok
My theme for 2007 would be to establish myself. establishing my 'kingdom'. (imaginery one i shld say)
=D
Cheers!
