It has been about three years now since I have first heard Tom Delonge talk about how his band Angels and Airwaves (AVA) will change the world. For the past year Tom has ranted in many interviews of the future plans for the band, including a documentary, a new album, and a website based operating system called "Modlife". At first if you would hear Tom in attempts to explain his vision of the site you'd be lost just as he has left many interviewers. Tom and AVA have recently shot a video explaining the main purpose of modlife
The newly updated Modlife Angels and Airwaves site has exclusive videos, photos, blogs, and a interaction forum for fans and bands. Modlife is not yet fully developed yet but should be up and running before the bands next tour (Warped Tour 2008). When Modlife fully launches bands will be able to set up their own Modlife pages to interact with their fans.
My Thoughts: I have heard Tom talk about this for a while and I have to admit he seemed crazy comparing his idea to that of Radioheads when they released their new album for download on the site. You have to pay a fee to join Modlife just like you had to pay a fee to join the "Army Of Angels" which seemed very similar to Modlife in some ways. The membership promised exclusive videos, chats, pictures, and other content; but nothing was ever put up. Well nothing at least paying $30 for. If this idea is executed properly it could be really cool for fans.
