They made it seem, as it was your decision. You were the one that changed your phone number, you were the one who had your manager speak on your behalf...
[Tom] Absolutely I did not talk to them. That is totally true...absolutely... and absolutely they were pissed about it. But that was after we argued for weeks and weeks and there was nothing left to say. Like nothing. If we would started arguing about it again it would be like the movie that you have seen for the 75th time in one month. It was like what are we fucking doing? I guess we feared that to talk about it the same things again and again. I mean we are talking about arguments with tears and screaming backstage in Europe for days and days. I mean then we got home and they wanted to start talking about it again after we agreed to take a break, and I could go home with to my kids. Then they wanted to start booking tours, and they got all pissed. That’s why. And they all wanted to go out and tell everybody, and they went out and they were mad. I mean they had every reason to be angry. I took away from them they wanted to keep doing, but I told them. I don’t want to quit this band. I started this band. It was me. It wasn’t like that. I didn’t want to do that. But just came to that situation were the sort made me choose between how I wanted father my kids. You know I can do that. That is really what it was. I don’t know. I have any animosity towards those guys. Because when everyone is put in those situations where they are not comfortable, you look at it through a filter, and at the time it was really a negative filter. They were suspicious, everyone thought I was going to go out and do a solo record. There weren’t people in my ear telling me I was the band. It was all lies. It was all paranoia. It wasn’t my manager was trying to make me start a new band. It was all such shit! It was all suspicion, and it ruined the band. None of it was true. I mean +44 was actually was created while we were still on tour in Europe. AVA was not even created till months and months after the break up. I mean people think I had this in my head to go out and do this. It wasn’t like this at all. They already had in their head to go out and start a whole new band.

Among the other musicians from San Diego and the areas in Southern California thought to be affected by the fire are Angels and Airwaves/ Blink-182 singer Tom DeLonge, System of a Down's Serj Tankian, the members of P.O.D., Jewel, Dave Mustaine, As I Lay Dying, Augustana, Jason Mraz, Louis XIV and former members of Rocket From the Crypt. (MTV News could not reach all of the above artists to check on their status.)

DeLonge's former Blink bandmate, Mark Hoppus of (+44), now lives in Los Angeles but said his sister, grandmother, mother and stepfather were all evacuated. "My mom and sister and grandma were some of the first evacuees and they went as far as they could, to Oceanside, which is 45 minutes away. They stayed in a hotel there and watched it happen," Hoppus said — adding that just days after his family fled to the hotel, it almost burned down when the fire caught up with them again.

yes indeed. tonight we played “dammit” in the set. very loud. very fun.

tonight in cleveland/akron/cuyahoga falls during our set we played “the rock show.” fast, sloppy, and fun, just as it should be. now we are headed out to wkrp in cincinatti. maybe we can find some skyline chili tomorrow. awesome times.

for the past year and a half we have been saying how +44 will never play blink-182 songs. in interviews, when people ask about it, we say it won’t happen, we think it’s lame, etc. last week we changed our minds. and tonight during our set we played what’s my age again. you see, travis and i LOVE our history with blink-182, and it seems a shame to let those songs sit dormant forever because of what happened two years ago. and that song is SO much fun to play. so why not? it was awesome to play that song live again. we’re having the time of our lives out here. see you at the shows.
