  • How We Beat the Great Depression Chapter 1 Finding Paradise on The
    How We Beat the Great Depression Chapter 1 Finding Paradise On the southwest corner of the United States there is a place that we called home for thirteen years. Mexico lay to the south, the Pacific Ocean to the west, with the Coronado Islands looming up fourteen miles from shore, and the sleepy little village of Imperial Beach with San Diego and Point Loma in the distance to the north. To the east, San Miguel and the Otay Mountains and the peaks of the Coastal Range made a beautiful, panoramic backdrop to a scene that to me is unforgettable. To the local folk this marshy land was called the "Tiajuana Sloughs" because the Tijuana river, originating in Mexico, ran through the town of Tijuana and across the International Border to the Pacific Ocean. The river flowed when, and if, there was enough rainfall in the mountains during the rainy season. Long after we moved from there, the name of the sloughs was changed to the Tijuana Estuary. A salt works was located there before the big floods in the spring of 1916. Local historians say a fellow by the name of Charles Hatfield caused the flood with his famous rainmaking machine. The city of San Diego hired him to end a long drought, and soon afterward, the rains started to fall. It rained for weeks until almost everything in San Diego was flooded or washed away. By the time we move to the sloughs, the only things left to mark the salt works site were old dikes that bordered the evaporation ponds.

They combine high-energy dynamics with an artistic ambition that transcends any genre. Now with Matt Skiba (of Alkaline Trio) as singer/guitarist, the group has entered a new chapter. Early in 2016, Skiba finally entered the studio with bassist Mark Hoppus and drummer Travis Barker. Although the band had written more than 30 songs in the months before the sessions, once they started working with producer John Feldmann, they soon discarded all the old material and California was born. While blink-182 has already racked up more than their fair share of platinum records and blockbuster singles, Hoppus emphasized, "We're not just a greatest-hits band, although we will play the hits. Blink is alive and well and we're excited about doing cool new stuff.” According to The New York Times, "No punk band of the 1990s has been more influential than blink-182.” Tickets for blink-182 ranging from $39.00 to $59.00 go on sale this Friday, July 27 at 10 AM.
