TOP 5 BLINK-182 SONGS ft. Chris Wasser

We missed you, we missed you. 

NO ENCORE returns with checkerboard Vans, three-quarter-length shorts, Warped Tour t-shirt, and lip ring - side piercing, natch - all in tow as we stage-dive head-first into the career of rambunctious, implosive San Diego pop-punk icons Blink-182. 

Dave Hanratty and Sonic Architect Adam welcome arts journalist and broadcaster, and dedicated Blink disciple Chris Wasser - he has the ink to prove it - to the studio co-host chair in honour of the recently reformed trio's hopeful return to Dublin in the coming days. 

Hopeful in that the mood in the Blink camp is quite harmonious these days, and hopeful in the sense that oh for the love of god please let the gig actually go ahead this time, thank you.

Don't miss out on exclusive Patreon bonus content - episode two of the NO ENCORE Film Club lands this Sunday, talking divisive Danny Boyle and Leonardo DiCaprio team-up The Beach. Hit up patreon.com/noencore for access.
