Inside the cover:
They're young. They're sexually active. And they play their own instruments.
In a time when overproduced boy bands and teen sensations are saturating the music market, the boys of blink-182 are a breath of fresh air -- proving that sugarcoated acts aren't the only thing that can get nominated for MTV's "Video of the Year."
Blink-182 Tales from Beneath Your Mom is chock full of the outrageous band's behind-the-scenes antics, juvenile sense of humor, and never-before-published photos. Bandmates Mark Hoppus, Tom Delonge, and Travis Barker join Mark's sister, Anne, in this exciting tell-all book about life on the road and backstage.
From their early days jamming in Tom's garage, to dominating MTV's TRL, to going multiplatinum with their album Enema of the State and being voted "The Sexiest Rock Band" by Teen People, fans can at last get an inside look at the video-streaking, toilet-joke-living, self-styled punk/pop band that has all the kids asking, "What's My Age Again?".
