Blink-182 [ARCHIVED] Band • Page 1125

Im still hoping for a Dude Ranch 20 year celebration of some sort....Special anniversary release, a few anniversary shows....I can only hope.

 

it'd be cool, buuuut i can't see them doing anything for that. especially since Matt and Travis weren't part of that era.

 

Unfortunately...SMH.

But I feel like they HAVE to do something for Enema. We shall see. Who knows, Tom might be back by then lol.

 

They don't even have to do a huge Dude Ranch anniversary celebration.....just add Waggy, Emo and Apple Shampoo to the setlists and I'll be a happy boy.

 

You shut your mouth LOL

 

Honestly, it would be weird to do full album shows without Tom. Just add in a couple older songs to acknowledge it.

 

I'd be happy with some deep cuts in the live set and an anniversary vinyl release.

 

My buddy actually predicted that Tom would be back during the Enema anniversary year when Matt first joined.

 

As much as I like and respect Tom, now that I've heard Skibas vocals and everything, if it's current era Tom and he hasn't become a bit more humble or dedicated I'll pass lol

 

This would be cool

 

I could really see them reuniting with Tom for certain events like that. After this whole run with California and multiple huge tours while Tom has pretty much been musically inactive, I honestly can't really see them ever even attempting to function as a normal band again. It would have to be under special circumstances like an anniversary tour or just string of shows.

 

I'd fly out to CA for any anniversary shows with Tom.

 

I must say, it would be weird and awkward to see them play with Tom again. Just given the last 2 years..

 

And after seeing that video of Scott performing "Carousel", maybe they could even talk (bribe) him into making a comeback for an anniversary show. Although, I doubt it because that'd be like your former employer that fired you asking you to come back for a party just to make everyone else happy... haha. But yeah, I'd still love to see it!

 

Absolutely. But. I know I'd be there. I was mad at myself for missing the untitled shows.

 

I can understand people wanting Tom in the band again, but I can't understand wanting to see him live with them again....

 

Nostalgia is one hell of a drug.

Edit: Sorry, my coffee is clearly kicking in, hence my multiple posts in a matter of seconds.

 

definitely mixed feelings

 

It would be like your parents getting divorced..and your mom dates a new guy for 2 years...and then your absent dad comes back into the picture..and you're sitting at the dinner table like

 

Anniversary shows for an album is the only capacity I'd be ok with seeing Tom in the band again. Not sure I'd personally really want to see that. Still as long as things are great with Matt in the band, don't see it.

 

Honestly the only way I could see them playing with Tom again is during their Rock 'n Roll HOF induction. (One can dream about that right?).

 

With my family being in and me having been from Cleveland 24 of my 30 years of life I would be visiting my family in a heart beat that week to go watch them get inducted lol

 

I get into arguments with people about this all the time, but I can definitely see them being inducted shortly after they're eligible. They pioneered an entire subgenre and culture.

 

I admit to have really no knowledge of the HOF process and I'm obviously biased but if Green Day is in I think blink should be one day as well. Like you said they pioneered an entire subgenre and culture and were one of the most popular bands for a 4 year period. Hopefully with California and moving forward it will help pad their "stats" to get in.

 

I can only imagine the bands playing tributes for them during the HOF induction....
