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!
THIS IS SOO AMAZING... I MET MARK AND TOM THE FIRST SHOW IN NEW JERSEY AND I WISH I GOT TO SEE THIS.. BLINK IS GOING TO BE BIGGER THEN BEFORE I THINK. THE NEXT RECORD IS GOING TO BLOW THE FU CK UP. THEY ARE ON TO SOMETHING HERE
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.
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!
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.
***** 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
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
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 😍
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.
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 had the same idea. Maybe one day tom will come back and it will be a four piece. They already have layered guitars on their albums so it would work perfectly! One day..
It would never happen. Matt came in as a result of Mark steering the band in the exact direction Tom didn’t want: mainstream easily replicable pop. Tom is the sole reason the self titled album and neighborhoods were more experimental. Tom would have never agreed to make an album as basic as California
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.
Tom can sing _fine_ when the parts are really low like that. it's when he gets up into those high _Stay Together for the Kids_ and _Dumpweed_ parts that he blows it. and, unfortunately, since it's all so ANTHEMIC and HUGE, Angels & Airwaves is almost exclusively in a really high range that Tom just doesn't have. he didn't then, he sure doesn't now. or i dunno - maybe he just really hates singing live? i've always said that, on record, Tom has one of the best voices in pop history. and i mean that. he essentially has his very own high, nasal, lotsa-attitude style. very few singers have that. he does. or did, anyway. it's just that live . . . . well, what can you say? even by the time they started touring _Enema of the State,_ his live vocals were fading. it's the reason they re-recorded so much of _Mart, Tom & Travis Show._
Nah not yet. I mean greatest hits was published before breakup right ? I think it was in 2005. They have only released 1 album since that... so its not time for a part 2 yet. Im waiting for them to start making a new album in 2013 after the tour is over. I think i read somewhere that they were goin to do one after the tour. And they did anyways make a new album every 2 years approximately.
OS this the first time Travis preformed the song? I saw that Tom and Mark busted it out in June while he was off stage. He adds a different flavor to the song than Scott's rapid, but ultimately simple b eat.
@3:21 Mark, smiling, asks Tom "you ready" it seems like maybe he was hoping for a bit of the fun stage banter from the old days with an old friend but Tom turns away and essentially ignores him and you can see Mark's face drop. It's kind of sad
This is how Tom plays Give Me One Good Reason on the album, only this is in standard tuning whereas the album version is 1 1/2 steps down. He fucked up the solo though, he played it on the wrong 2 strings.
Wow Tom’s voice in give me one good reason is as good if not better than Mark’s voice in wasting time and these songs sound great acoustic I wonder why they’ve never performed them with Matt skiba acoustic because he’s good at performing acoustic too lol maybe Tom is better lol

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
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!
THIS IS SOO AMAZING... I MET MARK AND TOM THE FIRST SHOW IN NEW JERSEY AND I WISH I GOT TO SEE THIS.. BLINK IS GOING TO BE BIGGER THEN BEFORE I THINK. THE NEXT RECORD IS GOING TO BLOW THE FU CK UP. THEY ARE ON TO SOMETHING HERE
You were wrong sadly
toms face when he fucked up at 5:05.. hahaha
The glare from mark was pretty great too.
it will be released after the australia tour
felicito a tom porque esta vez canto bien, porque no puede cantar asi siempre?
la verdad esque canto bien... sera que esta viejo ;/ ?
es que acústico es más fácil :P
i feel like Tom tried to one-up Mark. both sounded amazing though
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
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.
wtf, how do you even know that? checking toms messages?
wikileaks, man!
Tom is so freaking good here. I wish we could've gotten an acoustic blink album
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
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 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
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
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?
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.

It really hurt to hear mark say you'll do great tom I got your back..
They look so at peace here.
This makes my heart smile
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
Travis's drumming made this sound so full
wasting time is a really great song and in acoustic it sounds so fucking amazing! !
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 :/
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

i was also at the concert in nashville
@@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. 🤙
This is what blink should be. Matt Skibas okay but Tom is just so awesome
oh my god everyone sings give me one good reason and no one knows wasting time ......
He rrally can sing good if he wants to.
3 legends. This was wholesome to watch.
play at 1.25x for best performance of wasting time XDXDXD
genius.
i want a mp3 of this version lol
hahahahahahah damn you are fucking right hahahahahaha this made me soooo happy
Sometime troll are nice too
The Girl in Wasting Time is a metaphor for Blink 182. Is mark siting at home thinking about blink, or is he just wasting his time?
Tom looks like Matt in the thumbnail
Because Matt started dressing like Tom as soon as he joined blink
Yeah I thought it was Tom
Hugh Jass he stopped recently tho, it was overly obvious even from the first picture they took with the Hurley shirt and the backward cap
Hugh Jass lol it funny cus that’s how he dress
Are you crazy? Matt looks like a bald lesbian... Tom had skin cancer and stills looking great XD
Tom laughing at 5:07 haha
cuz he fucked up a couple notes
Gosh they sound good here. Matt I love you.... But Mark, let Tom come back!!! Make it a four piece! Super group anyone?
I had the same idea. Maybe one day tom will come back and it will be a four piece. They already have layered guitars on their albums so it would work perfectly! One day..
rooeeez
Exactly! They could actually play all the guitar parts.
+theeverydaylife1 jealousy would kick in
Tom already has a super group on how hands with AvA
It would never happen. Matt came in as a result of Mark steering the band in the exact direction Tom didn’t want: mainstream easily replicable pop. Tom is the sole reason the self titled album and neighborhoods were more experimental. Tom would have never agreed to make an album as basic as California
Wow, wasting time after 2003, impressive find
Apparently Tom can still sing well acoustically.
***** Yeah, it puts less strain on your voice, but it's possible to sing that way electric.
Tom is singing in a lower register here but yeh. I love him always no matter what and Mark and Travis too so yeh.
A Dios gracias cuando a blink se le ocurre agregar canciones "no singles" de sus discos más viejos a los sets, y más cuando los hacen "acústicos"
6:01 Travis is like "Interesting key change Tom"
I love mark's sweet voice.....
This was epic! Long live Cheshire Cat!
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.
I love these performances of Wasting Time and Give Me One Good Reason
They really should have done a full acoustic tour.
At 6:00 Travis realizes that Tom fucked up the key of the song. :D Luckily only in the bridge though.
xD
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
wasting time... besttttt version ever! Travis killed it on those hihats
So proud that they started the acoustic songs in Manchester and then added more of them the 2nd time round, in Manchester :).
Wish there was a pro recording of this concert. I hate listening to the drunk girl with no pitch
Every band has a point where progression happens, its happened to best, but there getting older so there music style develops
Seriously, an acoustic Blink-182 album would be amazing
the concerts in 2012 were the best after their reunion!
I'm so, so jealous and annoyed. I went to Birmingham and we didn't get anything that wasn't mainstream.
they played so well here. it really just looked like all 3 of them jamming and playing really focused
I love Wasting Time! but I wish that they would play it at the right pace and didn't slow it down for this live version.
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
Travis the BEST ))
Tom plays the entire bridge in the wrong key. The look Mark shoots him before it goes back to the chorus!
Simon Reynolds for wasting time, no he doesn’t. He plays it correct. Tf
chaser he was talking about the give me one good reason bridge
This is a late reply but I noticed the same thing 😭 sounded off haha
Travis with his drums make these songs sound so unusually sexy...
I love that they went way back to the early goodies
5:06 Tom fail and mark look at him. hahaha Love it
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.
Please put this version of "One Good Reason" on an acoustic album. This entire set actually!
I will never understand why they split up. It is a very sad thing
This is really good I've never heard wasting time acoustic
Like si lo ves en el 2018. Como paso el tiempo....
the real blink -182
Tom can easily sing well when he's not trying to use his old voice or singing too loudly
Tom can sing _fine_ when the parts are really low like that.
it's when he gets up into those high _Stay Together for the Kids_ and _Dumpweed_ parts that he blows it.
and, unfortunately, since it's all so ANTHEMIC and HUGE, Angels & Airwaves is almost exclusively in a really high range that Tom just doesn't have.
he didn't then, he sure doesn't now. or i dunno - maybe he just really hates singing live? i've always said that, on record, Tom has one of the best voices in pop history. and i mean that. he essentially has his very own high, nasal, lotsa-attitude style. very few singers have that. he does. or did, anyway.
it's just that live . . . . well, what can you say? even by the time they started touring _Enema of the State,_ his live vocals were fading. it's the reason they re-recorded so much of _Mart, Tom & Travis Show._
il mio ultimo giorno da teenagers :'') ..non è giusto però,vabè..grazie blink! grazie di tutto ;D
amazing!it's time for acoustic album!
Would love just the audio from the mics/instruments. Such a great performance.
"you'll do great tom. i got your back." gosh these two are so gay and adorable.
i was there! Thank you for uploading :)
I'd love it if they did an album like this.
was relieved when tom came on camera...
Tom actually sounds good
anybody got a guitar tab for this?
5:05 Tom messes up, gets a looks and laughs. I heard this version of this song a lot but tought it was supposed to sound like that..
The bridge was in the wrong key haha. That's why Mark gave him that look!
Nah not yet. I mean greatest hits was published before breakup right ? I think it was in 2005. They have only released 1 album since that... so its not time for a part 2 yet. Im waiting for them to start making a new album in 2013 after the tour is over. I think i read somewhere that they were goin to do one after the tour. And they did anyways make a new album every 2 years approximately.
good framing uploader...way to work all 3 guys in
there's something about these 3 dudes playing music together that can't really be described, it's pure magic.
OS this the first time Travis preformed the song? I saw that Tom and Mark busted it out in June while he was off stage. He adds a different flavor to the song than Scott's rapid, but ultimately simple b eat.
@3:21 Mark, smiling, asks Tom "you ready" it seems like maybe he was hoping for a bit of the fun stage banter from the old days with an old friend but Tom turns away and essentially ignores him and you can see Mark's face drop. It's kind of sad
I think he nodded and said something. Just look at tom's head
oh yeah it’s kinda sad
reaching
This is how Tom plays Give Me One Good Reason on the album, only this is in standard tuning whereas the album version is 1 1/2 steps down. He fucked up the solo though, he played it on the wrong 2 strings.
Im going on a Blink 182 video liking spree! dont give a fuck what happens in the video, just liking them because its Blink
you are ruined. this is band of 3 members, if you dont like them just gtfo. Respect travis who is a great drummer.
Please watch in 1.25x speed
same set from The Mark, Tom, and Travis show, only all acoustic. Call it Part 2. That would sell so well!
The problem is when he has to sing a fast song, He cant breath correctly or maybe he gets so tired, idk.
Wow Tom’s voice in give me one good reason is as good if not better than Mark’s voice in wasting time and these songs sound great acoustic I wonder why they’ve never performed them with Matt skiba acoustic because he’s good at performing acoustic too lol maybe Tom is better lol
TRAVIS LANDON BARKER
14 DE NOVIEMBRE DE 1975
47 AÑOS
it would be too fucking cool if they brought scott raynor back to play a song with them
I got your back. Is this friendship? I think so...
2021 miss this guys 😢
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
travis ruined wasting time. THIS ISNT YOUR BREAKDOWN SONG. Respect old blink
Hahha of all their old shit :P Yeah i agree with you, acoustic sounds very nice.
