I guess I agree with you, after hearing your side. You're right. :p

What do you mean...you're saying it's easy to dislike travis? Why?

DJ Ducksauce 12-29-2006 12:53 PM

Because he killed Scott. :angry:

He's a bellend.

MTV reality shows, plays drums on everything he can get paid for.

Yeah and he killed Scott.

bottlerocket 12-29-2006 01:17 PM

LOL @ BELLEND

I figured Travis would be like...really, really cool.

What a bummer.

Maybe he like....just...you know...enjoys playing drums. Just a bit of a quick thought.

lunchforthesky 12-29-2006 03:02 PM

I never liked him much anyway but when i met him he just seemed like kind of a tool.

bottlerocket 12-29-2006 03:04 PM

He's just really shy.

I saw True Life: I'm in blink-182 and he was just really shy.

Even Mark and Tom said like, "If we can make Travis laugh, we feel like we're the funniest people in the world."

lunchforthesky 12-29-2006 03:07 PM

I didnt like him beforehand though, he seems quite pretentious and quite ungrateful to his fans, but id really already made up my mind before meeting him.

chumpradio 12-29-2006 04:06 PM

Travis always seemed like a nice guy who was just happy to be in the band and to be making music. Everyone says he is a tool etc, but they have no good evidence to back up their claims. Seems like they are just jumping on the bandwagon because they claim he changed the band too much and that their cd's with Scott were better.
Travis wasn't the reason Blink turned poppier, it was the change to a major label. And it wasn't even a fast change, the only reason Enema sounds significantly different to Dude Ranch is because the production is vastly superior.

Just my little belief on the matter of Travis hating.

I dont think Travis changed the band at all. I think the band was always what Mark and Tom and later just Tom wanted it to sound like, other than in drum work i dont think he had much influence compared with the other two. Im not jumping on a bandwagon because ive never really liked him. He might be good on drums but for Blink material he really adds little more than Scott did. I dont blame him for anything seen as i wasn't a Blink fan before Enema of the State and i think that and Dude Ranch are on a par as their best albums.

Enema was a big change from Dude Ranch, before Enema they sounded more like a poppier NOFX but you could here very little of their more punkish roots after Dude Ranch.

Surtr 12-30-2006 09:14 AM

Yeah.

Travis can't be blamed for anything really, as he didn't have any real influence at all, other than drums. But he really did no more for Blink than perhaps take them in a somewhat more serious direction (Personality wise, because Scott would have been more like Mark and Tom and tried to dick around as much as possible).

Neoteric 12-31-2006 04:32 PM

Anthem and Anthem pt. 2 are the best Blink songs.

And I don't care what you think :mad:

Good post. No one has met Travis but alot of people think they know what goes on behind closed doors. The part about the production quality is also very true as if you listed to the enema state demos it doest sound as clean and poppy as the final versions.

DJ Ducksauce 12-31-2006 10:46 PM

21 Days ftw.

erm yeah they have.

me for one.

peggy sue, carousel, enthused, going away to college are my fav blink songs

poo-poo-pee-pee 01-01-2007 04:55 PM

My favourites are the mostly the more serious blink songs.
Adam's Song, Stay Together For The Kids, Man Overboard, Stockholm Syndrome, Wasting Time, I Wont Be Home For Christmas (Best Christmas song ever written) Pathetic, Dumpweed, Obvious, Dammit (live, it's the best live song ever written, but on the album, it kinda bores me.) Enthused, What's My Age Again, Anthem Pt. II...

I think I'll just say I like every blink song...

MattSharpIsCool 01-01-2007 06:59 PM

Really, there aren't too many Blink songs I don't like.

Travis is definitely a different personality than Mark or Tom or even Scott.

ITT: Discuss how Blink's humour has worn off on me and I no longer find it funny.

TheBigMachine 01-01-2007 09:38 PM

You have no sense of humor

MattSharpIsCool 01-01-2007 09:58 PM

That's pretty much it.

Once you stop finding poop and boners funny, you lose all reason to live.

TheBigMachine 01-01-2007 10:03 PM

I was being sarcastic.

MattSharpIsCool 01-01-2007 10:08 PM

Well ok, then my first line is no longer valid.

But I stand by my second line.

Oh boners are still plenty funny..Poop is just disgusting though.

lunchforthesky 01-02-2007 10:48 AM

For the first time ever Enema of the State felt childish when i listened to it the other day.

bottlerocket 01-02-2007 10:52 AM

My friends and I still call each other boners and make jokes about farting and pooping and we're mostly freshman and sophomores in college.

Only my old school friends, though, the kids I grew up with. Everyone else is like, "...Did you just tell me to go f[size=2]uc[/size]k my dad? That's mature."

They don't see the humor. :upset:

lunchforthesky 01-02-2007 10:53 AM

My old friends were dead childish but everyone at Uni wants to be mature and lame.

The Chemist 01-02-2007 10:54 AM

13 miles. thats the only good blink song

10571z 01-02-2007 04:52 PM

Just about done is the worst song by far.

Gav: Oh me and my friends said that stuff ALL the time. I'm just saying "poop" jokes are old..Sh[I]i[/I]t is the only form of "poop" that is funny.
