NotNow Posted October 12, 2022 Posted October 12, 2022 Of course Matt knew. Blink isn’t just mark, Tom, and Travis. You have the crew, managers, people at the labels, engineers / producers. All of these people are close professional friends with each other. Even if mark and Travis didn’t fill him in for god knows why, one of his actual friends would have on what was going on. And secondly knowing how the aforementioned works, there’s no way mark and Travis wouldn’t talk to Matt given the fact that his friends would tell him about it. Unless Mark and Travis were unhappy with Matt’s performance on the job causing a falling out, don’t see any reason why he wouldn’t have been informed. 1 1

Coddled Jan Posted October 12, 2022 Posted October 12, 2022 The pickle emoji has really taken on a whole new meaning for me lately. Like "here's a burger, chill the fuck out" Favorite emoji all time. 1 1
Speedo Posted October 12, 2022 Posted October 12, 2022 Matt was a hired gun, he did his job, got paid. There’s no shame in that, he did alright. I doubt it was a big dramatic thing, they probably just let him know Tom was coming back and thanked him for his contribution. I’m positive they weren’t shitty to him about it. 4
radioactive tomdog Posted October 12, 2022 Posted October 12, 2022 the fact that skiba deleted all his blink photos makes me think otherwise 2
Russel Coight Posted October 12, 2022 Posted October 12, 2022 That seems so petty lmao. Doesn’t mean he didn’t know though. Might just be pissed at how it went down or something. 2
Resident Zoomer Posted October 12, 2022 Posted October 12, 2022 1 hour ago, wannabe corn dog said: the fact that skiba deleted all his blink photos makes me think otherwise If you scroll down far enough, they’re still on his IG profile. His last show was in January 2020, and the last blink-related thing I saw Matt actively involved in was him recording guitar on Feldy’s story a couple months later. He was in the Quarantine video, but he didn’t record guitar on it because he didn’t have a home studio for some reason and was strict about Covid protocols, according to Mark. I don’t know why he couldn’t just use a laptop or something but whatever. I’m assuming that at some point they resumed recording but everything came to a halt when Mark was diagnosed, then it was scrapped once Tom returned. TLDR: He didn’t delete anything, just hasn’t been that involved (at least publicly) with the band since 2020, and the only posts since then have been either NINE-related, throwbacks, or wishing Mark happy birthday. 2

Russel Coight Posted October 12, 2022 Posted October 12, 2022 Yeah deleting everything would indicate a bad break up. But sounds like he hasn’t done that so it’s a non issue. 1

Incredible. i tought the same 1
Jamie Posted October 12, 2022 Posted October 12, 2022 If you just lost potential millions and got replaced by a guy they hadn't spoken to for years, I think you'd also be pissed. But Tom was always going to come back. Blink is Tom, Mark and Travis.... and they'd sell more albums and tickets with Tom. Not to mention, Tom is their best song writer. 1
madgaz182 Posted October 12, 2022 Posted October 12, 2022 Aaron Rubin just confirmed on his Instagram that Feldman isn’t producing this album 2

If nothing else, he might just be mad that a major stream of revenue in his life has effectively been cut off despite doing nothing wrong. I know that would upset me. Very curious how his exit did go down, did they even entertain trying to be a 4-piece? That Mark GQ article suggested that Mark was at least questioning if that could work, when he said something along the lines of, "How would that even work? The 4 of us stay in a house and record a new album again?" 1

BTW nice to see you back Mike!
