The lyrics of the new Blink-182 song ‘Darkside’ are quite bleak but out of this shade comes this very vivid music video with a flurry of kids dancing it up at a school. Apparently these kids who are all wearing the same uniform are too busy doing that ‘Fortnite’ dance to go to class. It’s a pop punk pep rally that looks truly joyful. So do we wear all black pants and red polo shirts to Riot Fest now?
Blink’s new album ‘NINE’ drops on Sept 20th. They headline Riot Fest in Douglas Park on Sept 13th. Keep listening to 101WKQX for ways to win your way in or follow the link below.
Oh , I am so on board for this!
Is he creepy? Yes. Is he maniacal? Yes. Is he still laughing like mad-man? Yep!
I am on board for this upcoming Joker origin story movie starring Joaquin Phoenix as the DC Comics supervillian who has been portrayed in several Batman films, but never quite like this.

Reddit user u/4chan_c00kie found this mini wrestling ring at a thrift store, and his kitties were thrilled. All off their sparring practice paid off, and we now can present…WRESTLE MANI-AWWWWW!
The comments are gold, too. See the original thread here.
The Black Keys have been posting footage of rehearsals for the Let’s Rock tour…and, yes, the performances do indeed rock.
[EDIT]: Just added on this week, “I Got Mine.” Plus check out a couple of other songs — both “Lonely Boy” and “Go” — while you prep for when they come to the United Center on September 27th. You can put your name in for free tickets by clicking that link. — [eric]

During the D23 Expo, fans were given a special look at the new Star Wars moving coming in December. And it’s dark — really dark. While there is a lot of historical footage from the previously released movie, the sneak peak we get from the new film shows off the Dark Side of the Force. Whether or not this will be a real path for Rey — or a vivid dream like her mentor, Luke Skywalker — well, that remains to be seen. I can’t wait. — [eric]

When the UK, you homage to one of the country’s best. Twenty-One Pilots did just that recently at the famed Reading Festival where they covered Oasis’s emotive anthem ‘Don’t Look Back in Anger’.
Just listen to that crowd sing a long with every word. It’s really magical. It was also clever for Tyler Joseph to add the line “don’t put your faith in a two piece band”.
TOP’s set also included a fun bit where the security detail up front was prompted to dance for everyone watching on the giant screens next to the stage. Let’s just some of them should stick to their jobs, but we still shake our butts in their company.
So yeah, @twentyonepilots dancing security detail is cooler than yours.

Watch Mojo delivered this gem of a video this weekend with a look into the Top 20 fails from local TV news shows from around the country. Whether it’s a dog interrupting a green-screen weather report or Chicago’s own Andy Shaw asking for a mic on a live report from the Democratic National Convention, there is something quite entertaining about watching live local news miss their story with comedic results.
Another Chicago TV news faux paw makes the list and it’s laugh-out-loud bad,
Good thing they’ve got something on deck, because I’m almost done with Mindhunter Season 2.
A Jesse Pinkman-focused “Breaking Bad” movie now has a title and release date, as of today.
You can check out “El Camino – A Breaking Bad Movie” on Netflix October 11th. Let Skinny Pete set up what the story is going to be all about with this teaser trailer below. — [eric]
