[@metalzerox5981]

The 90’s Blink was awesome. My favourite Blink 182’s album is Dude Ranch.

[@whatsthestory2612]

Great album.

I used to love the Eldorado saloon. I went there every Friday and Saturday night for about four years from 94-98. I miss those days so much. They were the best. I made a lot of friends there. Sometimes I wonder where they all are and what they’re doing

[@ciseru4481]

i love mark walk-bass

[@kristianputra7300]

Please don't fade away the sound at the end of the song, just let be as it is

[@whatsthestory2612]

Thank you

[@SamJLance]

Agreed, sounds super cheap. This is pretty much a historic document, keep it as it was originally recorded.

[@tonykuchar3237]

Thank you

Great audio my friend!

I had a feed from the soundboard and a $30,000 camera.

[@poohead8022]

@@whatsthestory2612 Crazy to think in modern times your phone has a better picture than a $30000 camera back in the day 😳

[@poohead8022]

Not saying this is a pretty nice recording of something from the 90s especially a live performance.

[@masupilamie7182]

…realy nice…the Drummer scott is the best…!!..no Front for travis…😍😍

[@user-xb5pg2dk6r]

wow never seen this live vid before! where does this come from

[@whatsthestory2612]

I filmed this for my 1990s TV show and then locked it away for 20+ years. I started doing interviews again and pulled out the old footage.

[@IamY00t]

They might be better musicians today, but 90s Blink were a lot better.

[@swifttothemax]

Peak blink 1995-1998

[@pandoz40]

They were better musicians back then

[@michaelluedtke6943]

Tom fuckin ripped back then...those harmonics are not easy and his riffs and guitar playing and even vocals were arguably better

[@Bryce-rh2fp]

Hell yeah ​@@swifttothemax

[@tylercherneski1805]

@@michaelluedtke6943 yeah no way he could play these riffs anymore

Hey what happened to the live video of degenerate you uploaded l? It’s a really rare song to see live and it was the only good quality version of it lol

I have not removed any of the Blink-182 footage that I posted.

[@mathcat721]

What show?

[@timurleopardi2580]

this live is great!!! have they played waggy?

[@lewisfisher4079]

They have. I saw them play Waggy in Liverpool, 2012

[@sledneck182]

Reynor setting the tempo too high

[@seanolszewski325]

Their music wasn't even that good yet at the same time it was fucking great became a fan at their first album on the demo 2 and still a fan up till Tom left. The addition of Travis really helped beast them up sad to hear when Scott had his problems but badass from the start till the end in my eyes. Straight childhood hooligan memories with these guys. Damn I miss the old days when no one got offended by just saying "what's up" in a off tone. What the fuck has this world gotten too? It's so sad. What happened to the fun days of just shreading?

[@shortymcsteve]

Do you still own a copy of that demo?

They’re literally lip singing

It’s lip syncing. And no, they’re very clearly not.

@@Gotlove-zq2zy This is clearly live. Go be my guest and compare it to the studio version. Just because you "heard" they're lip syncers or as you put it "lip singers" doesn't mean they are.

They played it like double the speed lmao
