Version 2.0 of the "remastered" Buddha Promo Tape I got rid of most of the loud tape hiss, bumped up the low frequencies and overall volume, among a few other things.

Hey! I'd love to have that bootleg!

I fiddled around with Dude Ranch and made it sound more crisp and less muddy. I also took off the silly bits at the end of some of the songs. PM me and I’ll send you a link.

not good.

I wish the BCR vinyl available on Amazon didn't sound like complete trash... Sigh... I should have never sold my old red/black smoke variant...

I'm going through Demo #2 and having another pass at remastering it. It's sounding a lot better than my original remaster! I've reduced the tape hiss quite a bit. Round 2 of Demo #2: https://remasteredblinkdemos.bandcamp.com/album/demo-2-remastered Let me know what you think

Bored To Death She’s Out Of Her Mind Snake Charmer When I Was Young Dogs Eating Dogs After Midnight Heart’s All Gone Even If She Falls Cynical Rabbit Hole

Send me those lossless rips and I’ll remaster them for all of us

Nope, these are just the rips that I've always had on my computer, so who knows where they came from originally. If you have lossless rips, and don't mind hooking me up with them, I'd totally be down to give them another remastering treatment, to see if we can get them to sound even better. Up to you!

I appreciate the feedback. They definitely have room for improvement, I agree. And I may go back and fuck with them some more when I have a free night again. But compared to the versions that are already out there, they sound much better. At least in my opinion. Shrug.

https://remasteredblinkdemos.bandcamp.com/ I remastered Flyswatter, Demo #2, and the Buddha Promo tape last weekend. I was sick of my ears bleeding every time I felt like putting on some old Blink demos. So I finally took the liberty of EQing and remastering them to make them more listenable. Obviously you can't polish a turd, but I hope I at least gave them a decent spit shine. Enjoy!

I got hold of a few more bootlegs so I'm uploading them to the site now

Thank you!

I don’t know if you noticed, but on each bootleg on my site, if you scroll to the bottom of the setlist, I put the info for the shows; Tour (or festival, etc), Venue, Supporting Acts. Just FYI.

Probably only the small clip of it, which is a bummer. I'd love to see the whole thing!

Thanks! And yeah, I'm one of you old jaded Blink fans as well (32 years old, fan since 1997). It was really nostalgic and interesting to me to find all these spots on the internet and I'm glad I can share it all with other fans and that you actually think it's cool too and not just super nerdy haha. I've been to a few of the locations from the list. I've been to a few of the WMAA spots, a couple Rock Show spots, and one of the Adam's Song spots.

Hell yeah! adding it to the list! thanks man!

Yeah yeah, I've gotten about that far too, but I like to find the specific spots, which isn't really possible for those places, but maybe I should try again.

The original "Josie" video was filmed on the backlot of Universal Studios so I didn't include that one.

I've tried finding the locations for ATST but have failed... As for Always, I Miss You, and Up All Night, I believe those 3 were all filmed on studio backlots or sound stages so there isn't really a way to find the specific locations. And as for SOOHM, I don't really see much of a point in doing that one since the band isn't even in the video.

I've spent way too much time compiling this list of Blink-182 related locations. It's always a popular post on Reddit, so I figured I'd bring it here too in case it hasn't made its rounds here yet. M+M'S -The boardwalk/amusement park they filmed at -The shootout scene at the end of the original video was filmed here behind (what used to be) SOMA JOSIE -The high school DAMMIT -The movie theater WHAT'S MY AGE AGAIN? -This is the sidewalk they run down -from the right to the left- at the beginning of the video -This is where the florist lady soaks the kids on the bench with a hose -This is where they turn the corner and see Janine walking up the sidewalk -This is where they filmed the banana man -The cafe they run past -The scene with the valet -The scene with the little girl looking through the magnifying glass -The construction zone they run past -The antique store that the old man with the TV is sitting in front of at the end of the video -The closing shot, they run up this sidewalk ADAM'S SONG -Blink walks from the right to the left down this sidewalk at the start of the video Fun fact: the buildings next to the loan company is where Blink dumps cash onto people on the sidewalk in the "Rock Show" video. -The Mexican food restaurant they eat at in the video -The gas station they're looking at magazines inside of while the lady is outside on the payphone MAN OVERBOARD -Little Blink runs down the same street as in the WMAA video -This is where Little Blink chases Banana Mark -Where the live shots were filmed -The concert venue at the end of the video THE ROCK SHOW -Where they took the homeless guy to get a haircut is at the business to the left of the nail salon -Where they dropped the car -it was before the building on the right was built -The building they were on the roof of when they dumped all the cash Irrelevant fun fact: The building to the right is the infamous Cecil Hotel. -This is where everyone was skateboarding and jumping over the van -Where the pet store was that they bought the doves from -The building they bought the TV they smashed FIRST DATE -The burger place -The water park STAY TOGETHER FOR THE KIDS -The mansion FEELING THIS -The jail AFTER MIDNIGHT -The hangar where they filmed the live shots in BORED TO DEATH -Where the live shots were filmed RANDOM SHIT -The infamous light pole that Mark climbed and jumped off of when he first met Tom -The old Sombrero restaurant they would eat and get fan mail at -The house they did all of their early stuff like print shirts, fold up Buddha tapes, etc. -The old location of DML Studios, where Blink wrote and demoed Dude Ranch, Enema of the State, and Take Off Your Pants and Jacket -Westbeach Recorders, where Blink recorded the majority of Cheshire Cat -Doubletime Studios, where Blink recorded their early EPs, Buddha, and additional recording for Cheshire Cat -Signature Sound, where they recorded Enema, TOYPAJ, Untitled, and also Box Car Racer's album -EastWest Studios, where they recorded some of Take Off Your Pants and Jacket -Rolling Thunder Studios, where Blink recorded some of Untitled, and where Tom smashed his Fuck guitar -Tom spotted on Google Maps walking into a Mexican restaurant that used to actually be a Sombrero's location -Mark spotted on Google Maps walking down the street with his wife and a friend -The venue they played their final show at before going on hiatus in 2004

Thanks! It's funny because apparently I registered here 2 years ago, but I just now started posting... Not sure what's taken me so long, but here I am!

Yeah, like the other reply said, it's definitely a mixed bag. All the bootlegs range from horrible to awesome. I'll go through them and pick out the best sounding ones though, if you want. I'm at work so I have nothing better do... because I don't feel like actually working.

Hi guys! I've been collecting Blink bootlegs for years and have always wondered why there wasn't a site that had them all in a nice little package. So recently, I started compiling all of my bootlegs (and even got some more) and have been adding them all to a Bandcamp page for other fans out there to stream/download. I'm still nowhere near done (still need to upload Skiba era bootlegs and such) but there's over 130 bootlegs already uploaded! Only 300 downloads are allotted each month on Bandcamp, so please don't be greedy and just download the ones you really want/don't have, otherwise stream as many as you want! https://blinklegs.bandcamp.com/ Enjoy! PS: If you have any that I don't have (including +44 and AVA), please shoot me a PM with a link and I will get them uploaded (just make sure the file includes the date and place of the show so I know where to squeeze it in)
