Brandon Flores is a serious Blink-182 fan. So serious, in fact, that the San Diego native has written a movie about the band’s early days, from its founding by Tom DeLonge, Mark Hoppus, and original drummer Scott Raynor, to the day Hoppus and DeLongue met Travis Barker following Raynor’s exit. Impressive, right? Not if you’re Blink-182. Flores has tried, and failed, to secure the band’s blessing for the film and the rights to some of its songs. Which means he may be making his movie without any of the band’s actual music. Somebody call Sum 41.
