Haha I was gonna ask the group how they felt about all the jokes in the banter now that we’re older? Some of it was still funny but a lot of it was pretty cringe lol. I used to think it was all the funniest shit in the world as an 8th grader when it came out. But the tracks are solid. I love Travis’s versions/reworks of the Dude Ranch and Cheshire Cat albums. As well, that vented snare sound really takes me back and gives me the feels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boxelder Posted February 15, 2020 Report Share Posted February 15, 2020 no joke i still find most of TMT&TS outrageously funny. less the blatantly vulgar stuff but the sillier, odd stuff tacked on at the end (“everyone say, *out of breath* WE HATE MARK! *confused audience murmuring”) 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have always had an immature sense of humor, the jokes were funny and stupid then and they still are, I haven't grown out of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's kind of like South Park, you can't help but laugh no matter who you are. Unless you're from Kansas, then it's all about "sick California reference" and "sweet video featuring kids!" and pretending blink is more like the other bands..

Yea. I didn’t realize until years later that it was all scripted when I’d start watching YouTube videos and they’d say the same shit every night. Kind of ruined it a little for me in that regard too 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feeling_This_1 Posted February 15, 2020 Report Share Posted February 15, 2020 Correct me if I'm wrong, there's a bootleg available of one of the 2 real shows this was supposedly recorded from. I've always wanted to hear it, if someone can post it. I wonder if all those bonus jokes are from real shows or just re recorded in a studio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of ruined it a little for me in that regard too totally. It feels pretty lame now, knowing their live performances from youtube already. It's not only the jokes. It's also the pick flicking or the crawling underneath the microphone stand and stuff like that. Last time I saw them live, I annoyed my friend big time by always telling her beforehand what they are about to do. The shows sadly feel kind of mechanic now.

Marik Posted February 17, 2020 Report Share Posted February 17, 2020 Here's one for ya: In either episode 2 or 3 of the 2015 HMNIM podcast, Mark mentions doing a cover song for the tv series Stalker. I remembering watching that show (every episode) and noting the cool reimagining cover songs every episode- but never heard any Mark/Blink. Any one know more about this song they worked on?

Tom adds some extra aggression in on the palm muted verses of Dumpweed, meaning he lets some of the chords ring out instead of palm muting the whole time....and they edited all of that out. That sucks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hammerpipe Posted February 17, 2020 Report Share Posted February 17, 2020 Do you still keep in touch with Mark Tom or Travis? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marik Posted February 17, 2020 Report Share Posted February 17, 2020 Did he have any knowledge/impression that any of the band members would ever sit around and actually pick/approve/create tshirt designs themselves? Any specific reference of an image and the band member who came up with it? At what point did the band members stop being involved directly and design teams took over? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
