Why are they getting a greatest hits?
I enjoy listening to them every once in a while but there are bands with more influence and others with much more talent I don't understand why Blink are huge.

Because people can relate to their music. They came out at the right time, and did the right things.

Tracklisting will probably be:
What's My Age Again?
All the Small Things
Adam's Song
The Rock Show
Stay Together for the Kids
First Date
Feeling This
I Miss You
Down
Always
Josie
Damnit
M&Ms
Man Overboard
and the obligatory "new" song, which I wouldn't be surprised to see "Another Girl, Another Planet"

I normally would agree with you... most bands that release a Greatest Hits album are far from the posistion where they should release one. But in this case, I have absolutely no problem with it. They've released six full lengths (along with a couple dozen other tracks and a live album) in a career that spanned well over a decade. Not to mention, when Blink announced the hiatus, I saw dozens of kids say how they were the "gateway" band for them (as they were for me). They're plenty influential.

Probably because they've released five studio albums, been a band since 1992, and have influenced many young bands and musicians.

Ok, so maybe maybe you could argue the talent thing from a technical point of view (atlesat for mark and tom), but writing such catchy songs that millions of people love is far from easy. Even if you don't think so, they are very very talented song writers in that respect.
Furthermore, they are HUGELY influential. Think about how many kids on this site started listening to music, punk, or anything related cuz they heard that song "what's my age again" on the radio right after the backstreet boys. At least for me, they turned me on to a whole new area of music, and I wouldn't liek the bands I like now, or even be in a band and writing music, if it wasn't for them.
And that, my friend, is why blink 182 is huge, and they deserve to be there.

We all know "The Mark, Tom and Travis Show" was a greatest hits album, but even better since it was live.

People who come into this thread and talk shit about blink have blink to thank for their even being an absolutepunk.net for them to bitch at. This site would cease to exist without them, therefore if they werent around you wouldnt have a place to spend your worthless lives complaining how Adam from TBS is a bitch or how "gay" kenny from the starting line looks with his long hair...time to take a step back and take into account whats important in your life and i know in my life its music and i have blink 182 to thank for that and if you are gonna complain complain to your cat cuz seriously no one around here cares

Old school.
to the people that said that blink is the reason many of us are into this genre of music and play guitar, i just want to say amen. before blink 182 i didn't give two shits about music. now i mark my calendar for release dates of artists i would have never ever thought i would even consider listneing to 5 years ago, and i play guitar a few hours every day. i'm obsessed. and for that i want to say that mark and tom are very very sexy individuals and god bless them.
and travis has made many aspiring drummers wanna give up lol...

blink 182 has a lot of haters, but IMO they are true masters of making catchy sing along songs. its not as easy as it looks to make a song as memorable as theirs are. a lot of shitty pop punk bands try to do it and fail.

hell yes! everyone knows the tom strat is the coolest guitar out there. rock on! blink is indeed the reason this site and all of us are into this kinda music. it was a sad day when they left the scene, but it was inevitable. this is me putting Dude Ranch in my stereo and rocking out to Pathetic...

Said it perfectly. Especially that last part.
I can only hope that this is all a huge prank and their "greatest hits" is actually the new album. Just like how Blink's last album was actually called "Self Titled" not Blink 182. This would be great...*le sigh*

They are getting a greatest hits album because they have great hits and they deserve it.

why are they getting a greatest hits? because they do have some sweet songs. i just hope they don't mean, "greatest hits you've already heard on tv and radio 9283908409234 times before". i still like dude ranch, cheshire cat, and buddha. i haven't kept up with them for several years now so they probably have a lot of "hits" i won't even have heard before.

Whatever, there are better bands who COULD have inspired you. I stand by my comments that they aren't as great as people say. I don't care if you disagree, they're not. I don't care if you picked up guitar BECAUSE of them, you could have and would have started by some other band.

No offense, but that's a pretty ridiculous comment. Anything is hypothetical.
I stand by my comments that they aren't as great as people say. I don't care if you disagree, they're not.
You must care to a certain degree because you're posting here again. And don't say "I don't care if you disagree, they're not." Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, don't state yours as fact.
I don't care if you picked up guitar BECAUSE of them, you could have and would have started by some other band.
I feel like Kip here... "no one can even know that, Napoleon."
- Jeff
it could've been any band...
and that band happened to be blink
face it...i too love bands that play techinical music or whatever, but when you dont know shit about playing an instrument. it just doesnt grab your attention...you dont realize what youre listening to. you dont realize that what (insert band thats considered musical geniuses) is playing, is something not too many people can do.
playing a blink song...most people can do. which grabs your attention, because not only is the music simple...but its also catchy and fun.
blink IS the gateway band...and they can do whatever they want.
they could probably re-release buddha, chesire cat, and dude ranch with travis on drums...and they will sell more than the originals
