Skinhead Rob probably asked him if he dresses up like a monkey

That is kinda wack if true haha. Do we know he doesn't have a Blink tattoo though? How could you ever even tell? He has enough tats to be in an 19th century freak show

Well let me put it this way: no known blink tattoo, there are no accounts of one as far as I've found online.  If it's hidden away on his inner thigh or whatever, we obviously won't be aware of it, not like a giant band logo on the back of his head.

Who cares. Travis has always been loyal as fuck to blink, even when he himself was a much bigger and hotter commodity than the band itself. What a stupid fucking conversation

I didn't say he wasn't loyal, I was just wondering again,  why: 

With all the tattoos Travis has had done on his body often seemingly on a whim, including a giant Transplants logo on the back of his head, and how grateful he is that his love for music and drumming has got him where he is: how doesn't he have a single blink tattoo? 

It just feels weirdly a little disrespectful and a little hypocritical. Heck wasn't it one of his tattoo friends that designed the blink smiley? I just don't get it, that's all. Not meant to be doubtful of Travis in any way.  He's a weird dude, but there isn't another drummer around today that I'd rather be in the band.

I guess that’s fair to speculate on, I don’t think he really needs a blink tattoo though. He’s already a walking billboard for blink

Never said he needed one either. Was really just trying to speculate on why he never decided to get one, that's all, especially when he happily got a giant one for the Transplants.

God forbid out or the 100 artists Travis agrees to drum for he still agrees to drum for blink ? - the band that made him famous and known in the first place

I actually wouldn’t care. The new album is gonna suck , it’s gonna be California/NINE but with Tom. I’m just in this to get drunk and shout the words to All the Small Things at the top of my lungs at Little Caesar’s Arena

If it sucks then so be it. I'm just interested to hear what they come up with and it will be nice to have one last album with the three of them together again. I'm always excited for new blink music even if there's a chance I won't enjoy it.

I agree totally. Im just saying I wouldn’t be that bummed if they scrapped it, I’m more on the side of I just wanna go to the show and have fun at this point.

Apparently Tom was live on IG with Ilan last night. A comment on reddit says "Ilan mentioned Blink at one point and Tom said he had no news"

Has to be a surprise drop then.  Would be weird at this point to just be so silent.

That's the only thing that makes sense at this point. A surprise drop could actually generate a lot of hype.
