[daveyjones]

check it out, gear nerds!

special thanks to @Q182and @Thibaut182and @blinkstillrules!!!

[Thibaut182]

I don't have the words to say how much I'm really like super proud of this project and how it came to life (and especially with all of the super detective work here from everyone in particular especially @daveyjones, @Q182, Ry and @blinkstillrules)

When I created the thread back in 2016, I would have never expected that the actual strat would come full circle and be stickered once again with the work that we have accomplished here in regards to the research, the numerous pictures, videos and the amount of knowledge that we have gathered here.

That guitar truly is iconic and legendary and made me discover a ton of new bands (just with the stickers alone)

I have added Davey's video in the original post of the thread!

I sincerely really appreciate the shout-out it means a lot to me in being part of this wonderful project ❤️

I already told him by private message on the boards but it's totally cool haha 

I don't mind (I totally get that my name is not super common besides France obviously ?)

i say it "TEE-BOW" is that not right?

[Patient #48273]

Depends on which bow. If you're thinking it rhymes with whoa, you'd be correct.

Hi Davey!

off-topic but I wanted to get in touch! I’m a journalist writing a piece for Slate about the passionate internet fandom for Scott Raynor and was directed to you over on the BLINK facebook page!  Let me know if you would be down for a brief interview!

 

best

Funny coincidence or not I got the same exact message in regards to the article via direct message.

Can't it? Anyway, thanks @daveyjones for agreeing to this potentially fraudulent request!  Looking forward to chatting! 

I'm just making a Scott joke. Like, even within this blink community, I wouldn't say there's really a "passionate internet fandom" for Scott, but I look forward to reading about the 12 or so fans he still has.

if you want to talk to blink fan who knew scott back then, i have some great stories. you can also listen to this, part 1 of 3:

https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/davey-jones-interview-part-1/id1498399898?i=1000477809893

the scott stories continue into part 2 IIRC.

 

[daveyjones]

also, it would appear the piece is about more than just raynor:

It started out that way, yes, but the more fans I speak to it’s increasingly clear to me that Scott’s a unique case, worthy of an independent piece (plus i only have about 1000 words). Will have to speak with my editors though.

Anyway: hit me up at [email protected] if you’re down to set up a time for us to speak
