Mark got jealous because Tom & Travis did the boxcar racer side project, thought they were gonna kick him out of Blink. He started checking Toms messages and turning up at the studio unexpectedly, Tom grew weary of Marks behaviour and confronted him about it, they decided they needed a break. They had a break and got back together after Travis's accident but it just didn't feel right, they'd grown apart. They argued and split once more, for good.
And then let's fast forward many years later.... Tom releases "Dream Walker" during Dec. 2014 which was his best album since the "Untitled" album and Mark gets mad again and Tom is out Jan 2015.
***** The worst part is the... I was following these shows via youtube, you know, since years ago, and I see them get better and better, I even started to think "Fuck, they see so happy playing together, like old times, the new album maybe will be better"... it hurts I was so wrong :(
Definitely. They have an acoustic album, but it's unofficial. Someone recorded the acoustic music and just placed the singing tracks over it. But they need to actually make one.
of all of Tom's many great riffs, _Wasting Time_ has always been my favorite. it also happens to be one of his hardest riffs to play. and he just effortlessly nails it - pretty much - here, despite frequently flubbing even his most base, easy guitar parts. what seems to be the issue is that the _older_ a blink-182 song is, the better the guitar riffs are. and, weirdly, ALSO the more likely Tom will play it well live. Tom's _Wasting Time_ and _Carousel_ guitar parts are his hardest ones to play, and also the ones he almost always nails. so either it's some bizarrely advanced, deep joke of his or there's just some mental block set up with the stuff he wrote when he was, like, 20 years old. but seriously, though - _Cheshire Cat_ is LONG on great guitar riffs. _M&Ms, Carousel, Wasting Time._ all great, great stuff of his. the best guitar parts he ever did were on that record. _Enema of the State_ has the best songs, _Dude Ranch_ a close second. and _Cheshire Cat_ has the best guitar parts. so basically, as FAKE and re-recorded as it admittedly IS, _The Mark, Tom & Travis Show_ is the album i _most_ recommend to people who don't know Blink.
Touchdown Boy, Ben Wah Balls, and Toast and Bananas are all harder than Carousel. If anything, I would argue Carousel is the easiest in that list. Wasting Time is definitely up there with the others though. Tom is an absolute beast when it comes to downpicking, but I think he just likes to get drunk at shows; pretty sure was sober here 😂
Those older riffs are faster but not necessarily better. Tom started to write smarter parts that were technically easier to play but also musically more advanced
Cheshire Cat and dude ranch are popular :/. Dude ranch is actually probably the most main stream blink because Josie and dammit are still played on the radio to this day.
Tom actually started taking singing lessons between Untitled and the first AVA record. He actually sings pretty well live (not perfect though) with AVA, but I read somewhere that he sings poorly with blink-182 on purpose because everyone kind of expects him to/for nostalgia.
@@ohalistair gtfo lol. I just think like anyone that isn’t born with some freak-easy singing ability he has his good and bad days. He got famous not needing to or knowing how to sing traditionally. Singing for the average mortal is varied by your mood, energy, the day...singing bad on purpose for nostalgia because it’s expected...LOL
@@dukes-1826 this makes sense to me. I noticed he sings a lot better when they play small clubs. I imagine he can hear a bit better in those situations. I know he also just got nasal and ear surgery to fix what he said was a deviated septum and his ears always popping. All I know is, if you look at the AVA live performances from right before the pandemic he was killing it. Hope his shows coming up soon are even better!
Wasting time is the best my fav songs of Blink182 in their Cheshire Cat album, instead M+M's, and Carousel. I'm overthinking that I was in the band to impress my crush, act real tough, and writing song about her :D But that never gonna happen cause I'm stoopid and doombass :D Thanks Blink182 for your great songs 😍
I can’t believe this was over 10 years ago…I remember back when that this tour came to be, I thought it was going to be a spectacle because of their age. Now 10 years later, i feel this current tour was what was missing with this previous one here. Seeing the boys this Sunday in Nashville btw. 😉
@@JacksonArmstrong-uk1qq me too. Seeing them in St.Louis. Dropped half a grand for it. I live for their shows, so I have something to look forward to. 🤙
i really think give me one good reason might be the most underrated blink song. it was on such a popular album but seems to be one of the least popular on it and gets forgotten about
Man I'd give so much for them to put out an acoustic EP or something. Or maybe 4-5 bonus tracks at the end of their next album that's just acoustic versions of some songs.
9 years later and I still think this the best blink will ever be. The ‘Neighborhoods’ era gets so over looked, but imo, this was the time that truly showed their advancements as musicians.
I was listening to this in pure bliss, after watching vids from late 2009 to early 2011, thinking toms voice was never going to go back to blink after ava. This is amazing.
god I wish I could of seem this live . hey I'm glad I just got to meet them and go to their shows ( the one a cricket was a joke ) but the two others were soooo badass
god I wish I could of seem this live . hey I'm glad I just got to meet them and go to their shows ( the one a cricket was a joke ) but the two others were soooo bada$$
ohh my days 24hrs before my birthday gutted i couldnt see them in london on 25th july on plus side saw them @ o2 arena epic gig never heard a better band sound so damn good glad they're doing different set lists for every gig :)
It was amazing, cocktail kit in full effect and I thought the acoustic set at the MEN was immense. I'm rocking the octopus sticker i managed to catch on my guitar!
I could’ve sworn I’ve seen these performances before but apparently I haven’t lol great performances of wasting time and give me one good reason anyway
Fucking Mark singing along and Tom sounding great and Travis being his usual talented self ugh I wanna cry
omg I know, they sound amazing here
Leo D same tho
+Maja Idk sweet
When Mark said "You'll do good Tom, I got your back", I die a little inside and wonder what happened to this friendship.
this hit me so hard

wtf, how do you even know that? checking toms messages?
wikileaks, man!
Wasting Time sounds so awesome acoustic
Nope, you wrong
Yeah... But since 2016 Mark forgot all the blink past for his commercial shitly songs of California & Nine
@@sebastiancarrillo1769 glad someone else said it. No doubt it’s some part of Tom leaving
Hell yes.
One good reason tho......
It just hits different
@@justinTime077 Tom’s back
Give Me One Good Reason played acoustic makes me wish for an acoustic album.
makes me wish they were still a functional band
been devastated these past 2 days...
I'm still devestated.
***** The worst part is the... I was following these shows via youtube, you know, since years ago, and I see them get better and better, I even started to think "Fuck, they see so happy playing together, like old times, the new album maybe will be better"... it hurts I was so wrong :(
NickNack433 You mean they're now a real dysfunctional family?
I really like this version of Wasting Time. It's like a campfire version of the song, very intimate and hits right at home.
Tom is so freaking good here. I wish we could've gotten an acoustic blink album
Love that Tom looks at Travis at the end of Wasting Time and says "that was good!" These guys should do a punk goes acoustic album
Definitely. They have an acoustic album, but it's unofficial. Someone recorded the acoustic music and just placed the singing tracks over it. But they need to actually make one.
+chatochafa130 .search blink-182 acoustic album you will find it its uploaded by blink182fansindonesia
Monkey D. Luffy Jr. That's the one I'm talking about. It's unofficial. Means, they had nothing to do with it.
Doesn't mean it sucks, i think ot's still great
Monkey D. Luffy Jr. If the vocals were redone. I'm not saying it's bad either, but I like official.
They look so at peace here.

People who don't know blink? But do you know going to Nepal by blink

Travis's drumming made this sound so full
This makes my heart smile
This cap makes Tom look like in the old days *-* :D
And even sound similar to he sounded in past :D
People don't sing "Wasting Time" because it's mostly die hard blink fans who know it. And "Give Me One Good Reason" is from Blink's mainstream era.
Cheshire Cat and dude ranch are popular :/. Dude ranch is actually probably the most main stream blink because Josie and dammit are still played on the radio to this day.
I went back and listened to Cheshire Cat after I got dude ranch in 1997. I loved it.
@@Adamn19 emmm.... enema of the state?
give me one good reason is from the mainstream era but I think that and I'm lost without you were not noticed
@@Adamn19 Im just saying the hits off enema are way more popular than off dude ranch
Tom can sing really well when he wants to :|
Dylan Burton even hard he can sing well,but his voice need to be good.
Tom actually started taking singing lessons between Untitled and the first AVA record. He actually sings pretty well live (not perfect though) with AVA, but I read somewhere that he sings poorly with blink-182 on purpose because everyone kind of expects him to/for nostalgia.

@@ohalistair he said it's because he cant hear himself on stage that's why he sings better on albums

These dudes just have great musical chemistry. Too bad they can't work out everything else.
Now look at them

i was also at the concert in nashville

3 legends. This was wholesome to watch.
It really hurt to hear mark say you'll do great tom I got your back..
wasting time is a really great song and in acoustic it sounds so fucking amazing! !
i really think give me one good reason might be the most underrated blink song. it was on such a popular album but seems to be one of the least popular on it and gets forgotten about
Yea to me it’s the best song on the whole album
I love these performances of Wasting Time and Give Me One Good Reason
Seeing this live was one of the best nights of my life
I was there. Such an intimate gig . I just remember the stairs being horrible ha
Tom playing the give me one good reason solo in the wrong key is one of the greatest moments in rock and roll history and you can’t change my mind
One shot and all 3 of them in it. Hopefully we'll see that again.
yeah its sad because later on they’re so far apart from each other when they perform :/
I love mark's sweet voice.....
Man I'd give so much for them to put out an acoustic EP or something. Or maybe 4-5 bonus tracks at the end of their next album that's just acoustic versions of some songs.
RVKMOVIES Amen to that!
they played so well here. it really just looked like all 3 of them jamming and playing really focused
So proud that they started the acoustic songs in Manchester and then added more of them the 2nd time round, in Manchester :).
For a long time I wanted to see a live of this music, thank you
9 years later and I still think this the best blink will ever be. The ‘Neighborhoods’ era gets so over looked, but imo, this was the time that truly showed their advancements as musicians.
This is what blink should be. Matt Skibas okay but Tom is just so awesome
wasting time... besttttt version ever! Travis killed it on those hihats
damn I just got a weird flashback to like 9 years ago, when I spent days studying how tom played his parts in this video.
Give me one good reason sounds SOO GOOD!
Love this video.
I love that they went way back to the early goodies
This is amazing
I was listening to this in pure bliss, after watching vids from late 2009 to early 2011, thinking toms voice was never going to go back to blink after ava. This is amazing.
i was there! Thank you for uploading :)
They all look like they’re having such a good time. So nice to see
gives me chills
Awesome audio quality!
Thanks bro (:
This was epic! Long live Cheshire Cat!
Awesome stuff. Sounds strangely fantastic.
god I wish I could of seem this live . hey I'm glad I just got to meet them and go to their shows ( the one a cricket was a joke ) but the two others were soooo badass
love it!! blink182life
YEAH THOMAS! U'RE BACK!
this is fucing beautiful
Brings back so many good memories with these songs!! :) Wish they could stick together just for the "kids".
Awesome...
perfect oss
He rrally can sing good if he wants to.
amazing!it's time for acoustic album!
“Kids will have fun and offend, they don’t want to and don’t fit in” Something every generation forgets about the new ones
Holy Christ! Incredible
They really should have done a full acoustic tour.
god I wish I could of seem this live . hey I'm glad I just got to meet them and go to their shows ( the one a cricket was a joke ) but the two others were soooo bada$$
i saw them in Manchester the first time they were there, wish i went to this one aswell looks soooooo good
it was a good time. so nostalgic
oh god, the chills..
Mind = blown
ohh my days 24hrs before my birthday gutted i couldnt see them in london on 25th july on plus side saw them @ o2 arena epic gig never heard a better band sound so damn good glad they're doing different set lists for every gig :)
jesus, this is so f@#$'n awesome
il mio ultimo giorno da teenagers :'') ..non è giusto però,vabè..grazie blink! grazie di tutto ;D
Seriously, an acoustic Blink-182 album would be amazing
I'd love it if they did an album like this.
oh my god everyone sings give me one good reason and no one knows wasting time ......
holy shit this makes me so happy
Travis the BEST ))
22,000 people watched this and not 1 dislike. blink is the best
28 now :(
this is so funky
6:01 Travis is like "Interesting key change Tom"
This is really good I've never heard wasting time acoustic
Thats True dude :)
Every Single Song from blink-182 is amazing !
they are great friends :)
2021 miss this guys 😢
yo one good reason is fucking amazing holy shit im in tears, they actually look like theyre having fun its amazing
It was amazing, cocktail kit in full effect and I thought the acoustic set at the MEN was immense. I'm rocking the octopus sticker i managed to catch on my guitar!
Please put this version of "One Good Reason" on an acoustic album. This entire set actually!
damn toms voice is beautiful for one good reason, and that riff is beautiful
One good reason sounds SO GOOD acoustic live
100% agreed
the concerts in 2012 were the best after their reunion!
It’s the oh yeah’s that are doing it for me honestly
Tom's voice sounds AWESOME!!!
this is fucking AWESOME.
definitely agree with you... I'm from Chile, and they've never played here ¬¬
I love Tom's guitar!
its so awesome when mark says to tom that he has got his back- bromance right there!
EPIC
Travis with his drums make these songs sound so unusually sexy...
i'll picture it in my dreams
wow just another reason why i fuckin love this band
Wasting Time is the best blink song ever. I’d pay a lot to go to a show I’d be able to hear it.
Nice
Would love just the audio from the mics/instruments. Such a great performance.
wow I never realized how awesome 1 good reason is acoustic XD!
happy 40th birthday Mark!
I could’ve sworn I’ve seen these performances before but apparently I haven’t lol great performances of wasting time and give me one good reason anyway
And to see this is one of those shows Travis made baring in mind he was scared of flying and probably still is after 2008
