Short biography:
Tom was born Thomas Matthew DeLonge, Jr., on December 13, 1975. He was born & raised in Poway, California, by his mom, a real estate agent by the name of Carrie, & his dad, an energy company executive by the name of Tom, Sr. Then there were his older brother, Shon, & his younger sister, Kari. In high school Tom was your typical punk kid, an arch-nemesis of the faculty. He was actually suspended for a whole year for coming to school drunk. His parents, naturally, were pissed off, & forced him to stop playing in bands. Tom was crushed; he even wrote a song for Dude Ranch about it. Anyway, Tom made a triumphant return to school, & all of his friends voted him Homecoming King. Actually, this was part of a scheme to piss off the school administrators, who had a mutual hate for Tom. Shortly after high school, Tom got together with his pal, Mark, formed a band called Blink, & the rest of the story tells itself. Tom is known for his sick, twisted mind & fascination with aliens and conspiracies. He currently lives in Encinitas, CA, & spends his free time with his wife, Jen Jenkins, who he married to in May of 2001.
