    What a treat this is. I feel like people forget what a monster Scott was behind the kit because, well, Travis... but in his own right/style, he could really play too.

    "Mark is looking for some well kept vagina."

    Yikes some of their jokes have definitely not aged well.

    Toast and Bananas is a song I never understood why they didn't keep performing it after Travis joined. Such a banger of a song.

    Scott played basically the exact same two beats and had the exact same rolls on nearly every single Blink song. People forget about him because his drumming was basic and boring.

    I wonder how much Scott's drumming has improved since 1998. Should have gotten a lot better over the last 23 years, or was Blink the peak of his abilities?

    The sound quality is great. Better than a lot of live performances on YouTube and this is from 97.

    Legendary venue right outside Sacramento. Cool to see my hometown featured with one of its most infamous 80s and 90s concert spots.

    Better than you, sorry

    the one song they need to bring back from "back in the day" is Pathetic. Not sure why they took it off the setlist. The back and forth self loathing is the epitome of blink 182
