daveyjones Posted November 25, 2021 Report Share Posted November 25, 2021 2 hours ago, NotNow said: Yea I’m more sure than ever something is happening behind the scenes. They’ve clearly discussed the possibility at the very least personally or they wouldn’t all be discussing it like this in an interview including skiba even if theyre coy about it. Maybe things are in motion, maybe not. I think if Tom comes back skiba gracefully steps aside even if they offer to have him stay idk though. i do not believe that tom will ever again be a writing / recording member of blink. commemorative and/or limited live shows only. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I feel the same. I’m just happy they’re friendly again, but I just don’t see it happening. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradsonemanband Posted November 25, 2021 Report Share Posted November 25, 2021 Random that “the party song” is also on that one tape since the others are obviously the TOYPAJ joke songs. I want to hear all of these demo tapes/alternate mixes more than I want Tom back in Blink haha… 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could see it going either way. All depends on his mental state. It’s been trending in a positive direction it seems 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes! Please. And also the Adams song riff..? Though that one seems like something Mark could come up with. Where do you get to talk with him? 😊 Can't sleep, so watching old blink videos on youtube and being nostalgic 🥲 Can't believe i never got to see those guys play live..!

boxelder Posted November 26, 2021 Report Share Posted November 26, 2021 i think it was mark that came up w the distinctive WMAA riff. he said in an interview on a podcast earlier this year with chris from LTJ that he was trying to play the riff from JAR by green day but messed up and liked the sound of it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheerios4u98 Posted November 26, 2021 Report Share Posted November 26, 2021 Plus Tom often (jokingly) complained at shows about how hard the WMAA riff is to play lol I’d love for blink to continue as a four-piece, though I don’t think that’s likely. Getting Tom back without losing Matt is the best case scenario. Don’t think it’ll happen though. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Them keeping Matt, playing with two guitars and a vocalist that are able to harmonize would mean that they could get rid of those awful backing & click tracks and actually make their live shows more lively again would be a game changer tbh. But then again, they don’t need Tom for that, just hire a touring session guitarist with the current lineup and we’re golden. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theedge00 Posted November 28, 2021 Report Share Posted November 28, 2021 They’ve only made two records with Skiba, but I think it’s already time to re-invent their sound… Cali was just a rehash of their older stuff. Nine to some degree as well. Time to rent another house 🙂 Pls send to Mark: https://www.rentalescapes.com/rentals/luxury-vacation-rentals-usa/california 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
