There Was A Great Push And Pull Of What Blink-128 Should Sound Like All The Time. Travis Barker Comes From A Different Background Than I Do, And Tom Delonge Comes From A Different Background Than Either Of Us In Terms Of What We Write And What We Think A Song Should Be. Tom Pushes Me Out Of A Box That I Put Myself In.

Everyone Has A Song That Got Them Through A Bad Breakup Or They Put On And It Made Them Feel Like They Wanted To Go Out And Kick The World's Ass With Their Friends On A Weekend. Those Songs Still Feel Like That To Me.

All I Can Hope To Do Is Instill Great Morality In My Son And Trust Him Along The Way. The Music He Listens To Or How He Chooses To Wear His Hair Doesn't Define His Moral Compass, And If He Wants To Listen To Country Music And Wear A Cowboy Hat Too, That's Fine.
