what are the chances (%) of blink fans crowdfunding a "dude ranch only" youtube show with scott, mark and tom? Like MxPx has been doing in their channel? haha
Zero% or 1%?

100% if by the off chance one of them gets into a Plane Crash or something.

I'm pretty sure I remember Travis mentioning in his book that when he was messing with Paris Hilton he was eyeing Kim Kardashian, who was then her assistant or something. So yeah, I think you're right that they were already in the same circles.

 

Yea he definitely says in his book he wanted to smash Kim K

Shitpost. 

First of all, it's not funny. Secondly, if Travis did die, they sure as fuck aren't going back to Scott. Why people miss an off time, sloppy drummer is beyond me. You could get someone to play those same parts but much better. Fuck Scott.

Scott is such an enigma.

Maybe he's really stupid or something?

He always struck me as just kind of a dweeb but not stupid.

I honestly don't know much about him besides he was playing in high school garage bands in his 30s which is quite the oddity.

I'd think drumming on Dammit would help

You'd think after all this time he would sign up for Instagram or Twitter or something and start talking a bit about his blink years. Did they gag order him Ryan Sinn style or what?

There is probably more to explore here.

I'm guessing the mental pressure that he potentially walked away from millions of dollars prevents him of doing that. As I said in another thread a while ago:

Guy starts band with friends
Guy quits said band
Guy's friends is millionaires one year later. 

That gotta hurt

Dude isn't it crazy he hasn't spoken at all? Dude is probably crushed, even if he acts like he isn't. To be that close to worldwide fame and massive generational wealth (although this is all relative as blink would have never been close to their level of success with Travis if Scott had stayed), but watch your bandmates kick you out and then dominate the world with a drummer much better than you must have been earth shattering. I do feel bad for him in that regard, but at the same time, not really. He decided to not fully commit to blink at the worst, and at best, he put drinking over performing. So either way, he made his own bed.

Unless he got Ryan Sinned, he's still getting royalty checks every month. For someone not interested in fame or notoriety, blink could still be keeping him afloat for all we know. For someone who doesn't require a Travis style mansion or fancy cars, a little bit could go a long way.

Would love to hear his story and see what he's like

I know! I've always wondered how much in royalties he gets. The thing is he probably has seen the most of that in the past, it's not like anything from Dude Ranch or prior is still played on the radio much anymore. (I'm sure Dammit gets a few spins each year, but nothing compared to their singles from Enema and beyond). So I am sure he had a nice payday when retroactive album sales happened for Chesire Cat and Dude Ranch after Enema's success, but those sales are done now. I'm sure he probably gets a small amount from Spotify streams for the albums he was on, but artists don't get shit from Spotify as it is, so I doubt he gets much. But I would be really interested to hear these details and the rest of his story and perspective. it is a shame he hasn't spoken. Maybe we should start a fundraiser to get him to speak? Every man has a price!

Ryan is still highschool pissed and is still posting salty comments towards tom, kinda hilarious tbh
