On holidays, I randomly found a copy of Mark's book and browsed it and something bugs me that I wanted to share In Mark's book and obvious knowledge, the narrative goes that Tom and Mark started the band. However, I found an interview from 1996 from Mark and he says this (this is not the first time that Blink history is changed to better fit the timeline in interviews...) Scott and Tom met at a party and then started the band well, tom and scott met at a party a long time ago and started talking and decided that they wanted to start a band. at that same time, my sister was going out with one of tom's best friends, so she introduced me and tom and we started writing songs together, and it just began from there.

New additions to the timeline website! found newly surfaced interview from the Warped Tour 1998 (the exact date is unknown, but it's from Warped Tour in Australia)! huge credits to dialmformovies for digitizing the footage and uploading it to Youtube! This footage has been unsurfaced for many years (only proof is screenshots and now we have the footage!) @luisbootlegs a few unknown dates (that are not on the timeline website) Source : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-8jaX6J_4jw from @johnbeckwith1361 on Youtube I remember playing with them back in '94-95 @ The Casbah. Yes, they were very young and oh so arrogant. They were playing the same punk/ska garbage that many other locals were playing, unfortunately that was supposed to be the next big sound and San Diego was birthing it. Despite that, Blink was way bigger outside of San Diego than in San Diego.

Help needed! Currently looking for some old school Home Grown vintage shirts for someone (women's shirt would be amazing!) If anyone has any leads or have direct links to vintage shirts of the band, I would love and really appreciate anyone reaching out 😃 I know they are hard to find, but I'm really looking to find and discover some!!! Thank you so much in advance 🙏

Massive update for the timeline website! @boxelder Found posters for 3 shows from the timeline website (that had none as of yet) including more information about a show talked about in Anne's book "Tales From Beneath Your Mom"! Apparently according to Tales from Beneath Your Mom (written by Anne Hoppus), an all-out bar fight escalated at this show: "The bands took exception to the amount of force the bouncers were using with the kids. [...] It was the Old West — punches were flying, chairs were thrown, and bottles were breaking."

A fun anecdote! From @oz1747 on Youtube Blink came to our town way back mid 90s, needed back line for a show. I worked at the radio station hosting the show AND the music store supplying back line. The rider requested DW or equivalent.. I was green didn't know you just crossed these riders out. Well no way you're going to find a DW in this town to rent, I did however just buy my dream kit at the time , a Pearl Masters custom so provided it for the gig, I said to Scott "I couldn't get a DW kit but you can use mine, very similar shells to a DW, hopefully these are OK?".he said Holy Shit these are better than MY drums, I just ask for DWs just to see if I'll get them! SO Scott played my drums on a gig before I ever did. It's still my studio kit to this day... I think 'late 97, or 98?? They were still doing promotional radio station sponsored shows which is why they were traveling without all their gear. I think dammit had only been out a short while at that point.Tom didn't even have guitar picks! I gave him a pocket full of Dunlap orange tortex I had just bought that afternoon too.. From @vincesalas5486 on Youtube I met Scott once after Blink. His new band at the time was called the redliners. He was really nice. I didn't mention anything about Blink cause the shit had only recently happened. But a dumbass friend of mine walked up to him and said " Alright wheres the dude who got kicked out of Blink" i felt so bad when my friend said that. Scott took it like a trooper though and raised his hand and said, "Yeah thats me" and we all had a beer together Source : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-8jaX6J_4jw

If anyone has the Fahrenheit photo book, could you please scan the unseen pictures and send them my way ? Would be cool to investigate the dates and identify those pictures and add them to the timeline website 😃 Thank you in advance!

From Reddit (user Better_Combination67) https://www.reddit.com/r/Blink182/comments/1owd2bb/for_those_wondering_this_is_what_scott_raynor/ I briefly shared a band rehearsal space in LA wt Scott several years ago (when he was drumming for The Wraith) and of course, couldn't help myself from fan-girling out at least a bit when I inevitably ran into him. I brought up how the early blink stuff was so influential to me and so many others and while he was certainly gracious, I did register a pained look in his eyes while talking about it. I left him alone after the one encounter.
