Thibaut182

I discovered them in 2004. I used to watch music channels and then the Feeling This video came. At this exact moment, i said I need to listen to punk rock music more often. Then, i became a huge fan of Blink and discovered other great bands : Sum 41, Green Day ....

Me too ! I prefer the demo, it sounds way more punk.

Thanks for post ! Nice to read some stuff that i never imagined of Billie, he stopped drinking during the Nimrod Era. I can imagine how he was during 1994-1995 haha

This must be creepy for Tom to know that a dude tries to be exactly just like him and imitate him.

Nice job, dude ! Awesome stuff

It's Mark Hoppus birthday today !

Haha

Why is there not Travis with them ?

Fucking awesome,some nice stuff

And, I also had this stuff

Enjoy ! Some people talking about this show : This was BLINK-182's first appearance in Montreal . They are playing a large size venue not because they were popular but because this was a festival. It was SNO JAM 1996. 10 Bands, 2 nights. BLINK-182 was one of them. We knew BLINK-182 before their first show. We had been expecting them. We were BLINK-182 fans when they were simply called BLINK. Yeah, their core audience ! So we were all very happy to see BLINK live for the very first time. I remember thinking when i met Tom that he was a really tall guy. Just like me. 6 feet tall. He must be one of the tallest punk rock guys around. Another thing that striked me was how friendly these guys were. Mark and Tom were super cool to me. Scott was quiet and always dropping quarters in a pay phone, calling somebody. He seemed sad. Not sure why. But that's the vibe i got. I must adm it that i was a b it surprised w it h Scott's drumming style. He didn't strike me as very tight. He seemed to be playing on his own, by himself, not letting Mark and Tom enough time to jump in the songs. I would have been pissed. Like: 'Dont play so fuckin fast man, we're having a hard time to keep up w it h ya'. Anyways, the guys from BLINK are really generous people. One time, a taxi pulled over in front of our house. It was the guys from Blink going to see Paget and Orion, my neighbors. Most bands would sleep in our building so we'd see many bands dropping by, saying Hi. They'd all park their touring vans and buses in front our house and come BBQ. I got to meet the Blink boy's back around the same time, I heard of them from a comp and sent them a demo tape of my band and Mark responded and said they were playing in a near by town and they would get us in for free if we wanted to go so we did. we hung out everytime they came to town after that. I heard that Scotts dad was really hard on him and that's why he quit the band(from a friend of his) but he was really cool when we met him

Because i never saw this live. And, I like Tom's voice in this live.

And also this !

Did you ever see this ?

In my opinion, Travis was a good element in the band during the 1999-2004, i think. If they are not friends with Travis, they should change drummers.

It only depends of their relationship with him. If Tom and Mark had a relationship with him like they had for Scott, he should leave, i guess.

Anti-Racism i think.

I already posted this but i think that it deserved it's own topic, anyway. Enjoy I decided to create a topic because i think that not a lot of people saw this interview yet, so here you go !

That's expensive ! I wished that they released more merchandise during the Dude Ranch and EOTS Era. Anyone have links from where i could buy old t-shirts from Blink ?

I don't understand this. Is this a dude sending emails to Mark and Tom ?

I thought that it would be nice to share this here because it's rare, and i don't know if a lot of people saw this

Oh crap ! The quality of this photoshoot in the UC is very low quality

Footage from the Dude Ranch photoshoot ?

Photoshoot for Dude Ranch booklet ! I hope that there's footage for this !

Guess from where this is from ? Fucking rare !
