Feeling_This_1 473 Posted November 21, 2020 Report Share Posted November 21, 2020 That's possibly the best blink bootleg. I think its the same setlist as the Mark Tom and Travis show. Way better since it's not edited, funny banter with the 21+ crowd. I like when Tom's string breaks during Dammit but he gets a new guitar just in time for the chorus. Mark yells in happiness and Tom starts laughing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Pretty entertaining! i have not seen this in years. it might’ve been one of the first blink videos i ever watched. going to have to sit down and watch again haha 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, I got into the band in 2005-2006 and I believe this and Big Day Out were my first encounter with the stage banter and I thought they were hilarious and cool. I was 14 in 2006 and 14 years later I no longer think they were the greatest comedians or coolest people but it's fun to watch this with nostalgia glasses. Around the same time in 2006 I also found this video and it made me question if it was the same guy in both clips: 2 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Champ182 4253 Posted November 22, 2020 Report Share Posted November 22, 2020 Hmm is this the most dead period of this site in years or does it just seem like it? Nothing going on in Blink-land (understandably) but in past down periods we at least had Oliver here to stir up some controversies. Anybody know what he's up to lately? 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think it's a more well known bootleg than others since it's during the Enema era and the entire show is on video, it's always been easy to download or view over the years. Do you prefer the shorter setlists of the older shows or is it just the newer songs you don't like? I personally think Mark and Tom sometimes get too tired and sloppy with shows over an hour.

I personally think Mark and Tom sometimes get too tired and sloppy with shows over an hour. it's tough to say. i think this particular show at the kasbah is an objectively bad performance, though it is a nice novelty to have a record of. if i had a magic wand, i'd wish for a blink that was more like bad religion live. about an hour and a half, diverse set offerings, many deep cuts, constantly inventing themselves. though i grew up with them and i love them, it's a fair statement that blink are lazy and unimaginative live. they were like that in 1999, they were like that in 2004, they were like that in 2010, they were like that in 2016, and they are like that now.

I pop in as much as I can but even I'm thinking of checking out the other forums on the site. It's just hard to care about blink these days. There's so many other amazing bands that need our support. And, yknow, the pandemic. It's put a lot of shit into perspective and worrying about a bunch of rich, feuding 50-year olds in a 90's band seems petty these days. I enjoyed Nine for what it is but i'm definitely not even remotely excited for the next blink record or EP or quarantine song or guest vocal or whatever the hell Mark and Travis are doing with the band these days. Will I check it out? Sure. But blink truly wowing me across an entire record is long over. I don't even think Tom coming back would get me pumped like it did back in 2009 because it'll be the original reunion 2.0, only now Tom will have a low-budget movie to sell rather than modlife. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mohammad Wall-E 1371 Posted November 23, 2020 Report Share Posted November 23, 2020 I don’t know if this has been discussed yet, but Mark recently confirmed that blink asked Green Day to do a Pop Disaster 2, and Green Day declined. Not surprised at all that GD didn’t want to do this with the current lineup. Funny that blink thought to even ask, IMO. https://www.altpress.com/news/blink-182-green-day-pop-disaster-2-tour/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Now to play devil's advocate, GD did agree to do that tour with Fall Out Boy before Covid happened, which is strange. FOB is and has always been way more lame than blink, and they basically turned into an electronic band..but yet GD likes them? Seems weird. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Green Day most likely wanted to be top dogs on this new tour so they picked bands that allowed them to be that. With blink it would’ve been co-headline again. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Based on commercial sales, yes I sure can. When do you see blink on commercials or hear them on the radio? I know I’ve seen Green Day promoted a hell of a lot more. I love blink a billion times more than I care for Green Day, but some of you are allowing that love for blink to skew your opinions Quote Link to post Share on other sites

After Green Day released the trilogy of flops they fell off hard and nothing they’ve released since then has brought them back. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
