The blink 182 general discussion topic

That just sounds like someone pitch shifted Marks voice and then got some scrawny teenager to overdub it. Doesn’t remotely sound like Tom.

[theedge00]

What about Mark singing AVA songs ?

never seen this before. Travis ffs ? just standing there spaced out. Tom is great, he doesn’t shut up. Talks absolute shite but we love him.

Im saying its quite performative and he has a habit of being in press happy relationships.

Both of his prior marriages weren't exactly high profile. Unless you consider Shanna to be a professional top-calibar actress lol.

“High profile” he literally had a TV show about them, he seemed keen on it being public. Also went out with Rita Ora.

What I'm saying is the reason those relationships would be considered big deals were because of Travis himself, not the person he was married to. Shanna isn't about to get another reality series about whoever the hell she dates next lol.

I watched this not too long ago. I love when they’re in the Netherlands and Tom says they like the people with the wooden shoes lol

Wow didn’t realise they were on major talk shows during the dude ranch era. Is this one of their first appareances? How big of a single was Dammit?

Yea, I remember finding this as well and being surprised. I don’t really think Dammit was that big of a hit, but I guess it was big enough for them to wind up on Conan before the Travis era (although this was before Conan was really popular). I was 12 in 1998, and despite watching MTV endlessly, I never even heard of blink until Whats My Age Again came out. So  it couldn’t have been that big of a National hit, it at least didn’t really reach Michigan on a high level 

[thongrider]

It was kind of big on the rock charts.

 

I think they did Dammit on one of the other late shows as well. Leno? I dunno.

[boxelder]

that was the bands first late night appearance domestically, though conan wasn’t quite “mainstream” in some senses… they would book big stars then, but they had on just as many B and C stars and up and coming acts (that and conan in particular tended toward fringe comedy). they played leno (then the no 1 late night show) in 1999 after EOTS came out. i’m a bit of a late night geek lol.

blink played all the major network late night shows prior to breaking up aside from the late late show (which i think they guested on, solo, at least tom did). after they reunited they played conan, and colbert and kimmel in 2016-18. they’ve never played fallon, which i found odd considering he seemed like a fan in some of the backstage clips from the early 00s.

[thongrider]

That can't have been many months before the South Park movie was made though? And Conan was in that?

I don’t think they did dammit on Leno unless it was years later
