blink-182 - RARE old interview with Mark Hoppus & Scott Raynor

To become a drummer in Blink 182 you have to be borderline mute.

Scott will always be a member of blink. Even in his personality, you can tell why he was such a big part of the pioneering of blink, & their relationship together.

“We are here with the aquabats…” Scott had no idea.

u are so wrong

[@stevenhuerta7241]

He was looking up at the sky for aliens because they exist

[@peanutbutterisfu]

It’s actually possible that he was hanging out with him. Just like my other comment there was more to the story about why Scott was fired. Obviously it’s well documented that Scott had a drinking problem but they probably really liked Travis and just used the drinking as an excuse to fire Scott. No matter what happened I can’t help but feel for Scott. 1 year after he was fired blink because a household name. He did get a good taste of the band blowing up and has made money but he probably thinks about what his life would be like if he was still in the band. However he still did accomplish a lot by the age of 20. Not many 20 year olds have came close to accomplishing what he did.

[@Rountree1985]

Cryo Judgement can you seriously not see that the comment you’re replying to is a goddamn joke?

[@WhiteWolfTechGaming]

Damn. Mark has had the same voice for so many fucking years. The man is close to be hitting 50 soon and still sounds like this in current interviews, podcasts, and when he's live on Twitch.

[@bootlegrestoration182]

lol wish you could say the same about tom

[@maxadrums]

@@bootlegrestoration182 I don't, haha.

[@nonyobussiness3440]

That’s the case for most people lol Tom is a rare exception…his voice got deeper in his thirties….which he likes….he didn’t like his voice until it got lower in his 30’s….he was self conscious about his higher voice and thought he sounded like a child/chipmunk…he’s still shocked that people liked his younger voice

[@maxadrums]

I definitely much prefer his BCR/untitled voice to that of Dude Ranch and earlier

[@lauren7318]

this is the tour that scott got kicked out on. theyre touring with the aquabats which is the band they found travis in.

[@McPorkers]

i feel soo bad for scott considering how big Blink 182 got without him

[@cryojudgement2376]

The reason blink 182 took off was enema of the state. Mostly in part to Travis, people seem think that Travis is worse but your all just dumb for thinking this.

[@Rountree1985]

Cryo Judgement you don’t have any idea what you’re talking about. Dammit was their breakthrough hit in late 1997. Scott was still in the band till about April 1998 so he was still there when they were being played on radio and TV. Sure, enema was even more of a hit album but to say that it’s their breakthrough is wrong. Dude Ranch is the breakthrough album.

[@deanmoncaster]

@@jc35019 if Vince Clark walked into another big band after Depeche mode how do you explain yazoo?

[@cryojudgement2376]

@Daniel Perez it became pop punk otherwise you coudlnt argue mutt or wendy clear as being punk like to a degree. I agree with you 100% but In terms of technicality and just mechanical skill travis is better. His chops are so much faster, so much more intricate, and in my opinion better to listen to. I love the older albums but the older stuff just doesent have as much personality in my opinion

[@chriscrong6244]

@Daniel Perez the original mutt way better then the version they put on the album. Even the movie American pie had the old version on it. Scott had like that mid 90s sound but Travis had a better paste and mainstream sound.

[@elladhs]

Hahaha Mark totally took over the interview and just kicks ass, asking the right questions and being funny... (and also a bit douchey, but hey)

[@KingGimpyx]

The Tour Scott got Booted in. Blink found Travis in the Aquabats. ;)

[@Leesin6767]

Scott didn't want to sell out to a major record label, and obviously Tom and Mark did. Travis Barker was also better suited to mainstream pop punk direction Blink 182 were going in. Scott Raynor being kicked out of the Band was purely political. Scott is a more DIY punk drummer, more skatepunk style.

[@punkrockstormchaser]

Originally Scott wanted to go to epitaph partially because some of their biggest influences were on the label (NOFX, Descendents, Bad Religion, Pulley, Pennywise, Green Day, Operation Ivy) And as much as mark and Tom liked the label they went with mca which left Scott half as interested as he was before

He isn’t detached. It’s late at night after a show on tour and they have journalists and a tv crew on their tour bus…which is their house basically….interviewing them asking questions they’ve been asked before a bunch of times….none of them want to do an interview when they probably want to relax (smoke some weed, drink a few alcoholic beverages, take a shit and shower and go to bed)….tom is straight up avoiding the entire interview and only chimes in to say it’s his band lol…Scott isn’t used to entertaining on a mic…plus Scott lived with mark’s family, blink 182 spent 24/7 together for 5 years at this point, cowrote all the songs, and plays all the shows with mark and tom….its not like he’d have a different answer the mark and there isnt much for him to add after mark answers the questions…Scott, mark, Tom were literally best friends…
