'''''The Urethra Chronicles''''' is a 1999 [[documentary film]] about the American [[pop punk]] band [[Blink-182]]. The film, directed by former manager Rick DeVoe, is a behind-the-scenes look at the band's history featuring their usual toilet humor. The documentary includes exclusive live performance footage and [[music videos]].<br />
<br />
The film was released on November 30, 1999 on [[VHS]] and May 2, 2000 for [[DVD]]. A sequel, ''[[The Urethra Chronicles II: Harder, Faster Faster, Harder]]'', was released in 2002.<br />
<br />
==Background==<br />
The film explores the lives of Blink-182 members [[Mark Hoppus]], [[Tom DeLonge]], and [[Travis Barker]]. The film features footage shot over many years: for example, stunts shot by Hoppus and DeLonge during the recording of sophomore effort ''[[Dude Ranch (album)|Dude Ranch]]'' in 1996 open up the film.<ref name="TalesFromBeneathYourMom">{{cite book |last= Hoppus |first= Anne |author2=((Blink-182)) |title= Blink-182: Tales from Beneath Your Mom |publisher= MTV Books / Pocket Books|date=October 2001 |isbn= 0-7434-2207-4}}</ref> The film was completed in fall of 1999, shortly before Blink-182 set off on tour with [[Silverchair]]. The original title of the documentary was ''The [[Diarrhea|Diary]] of the Butt''. Hoppus, in a 1999 interview with the [[MTV]] Radio Network, described the production as "...a look back, and also a look ahead."<ref name="mtv">{{cite web|last=Coletti|first= Roger|url=http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1426189/19991105/blink_182.jhtml|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081205044312/http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1426189/19991105/blink_182.jhtml|url-status=dead|archive-date=December 5, 2008|title=Blink-182 Gets Anatomical For New Home Video|publisher=MTV News|date=1999-11-05|access-date=2010-06-01}}</ref><br />
