Mark Hoppus and Travis Barker talk about Tom Delonge's departure


It's confirmed. Tom Delonge is no longer part of blink-182. Check out the following interview made by the guys of RollingStone.com to the blink-182 members, Mark Hoppus and Travis Barker.

Q: What was your reaction to Tom's statement that he didn't quit the band?
A: Barker: I think he's just bummed because Mark and I were finally honest. We always covered up for him before. It was always, "We're going to record an album," then "Tom refuses to get into the studio without a record deal." So everyone does hella amounts of work to get a record deal and now Tom isn't part of Blink-182. It's hard to cover for someone who's disrespectful and ungrateful. You don't even have the balls to call your bandmates and tell them you're not going to record or do anything Blink-related. You have your manager do it. Everyone should know what the story is with him and it's been years with it. When we did get back together after my plane crash, we only got back together, I don't know, maybe because I almost died. But he didn't even listen to mixes or masterings from that record. He didn't even care about it. Why Blink even got back together in the first place is questionable.
