The Mark, Tom & Travis Show - blink-182

The Mark, Tom and Travis Show produced by Blink 182 really is an excellent CD. It is the only official live album that Blink 182 have actually produced and it was originally released in November, 2000. I bought this copy originally in HMV for £10 but it was quite hard to get due to popularity, you can now buy this CD from Amazon from £5 which is an excellent price for an album of this calibre. What I really loved about this CD is how it contained music from "Dude Ranch", "Cheshire Cat" and "Enema of the state". This meant I found that the selection within the album was very good and I felt it offered some variety. I really liked ...  Read the complete review

In today's world of fast-moving trends, styles and constant changing of fashionable genres of music, it is extremely rare to find a case like that of blink-182. Unknown to most, the San Diego punks have been around for approximately a decade now; though only came about major public exposure following the huge success that came of "All The Small Things", "What's My Age Again?" and the "Enema Of The State" album as a whole. Not many people know that before this worldwide best-seller, blink-182 released three albums previous to this, and had a very different sound to the one that a lot of new fans have become ...  Read the complete review

This, as all you Blink 182 fans out there should know, is the First live Blink album. I kno wmost bands only make one live album (except for Pearl Jam who recorded 26 over a month or so, and released them all), but Blink should make more. The tracks are played much better live, and they are so funny onstage. Tracks from Enema of the State: such as Dumpweed, all the small things and what's my age again? (Although when downloaded will be found as wheres my Asian Friend?), Dude Ranch: Dammit, and Cheshire Cat: Carousel, Peggy Sue, and a Previously unreleased track: Man Overboard (which was a consideration for Enema of the State), make this album good for people who ...  Read the complete review

These days in music, you know when a band is doing pretty well....you know when they are getting the fans, and the record sales...you know when they release an live album....and then they tour on it....and blink-182 are no exception....if any proof was needed of their fame and fortunes at the moment, then surely you need look no further then 'The Tom Mark And Travis Show (The Enema Strikes Back)'......an album which goes to great lengths in showing the bands wit, humour and great skills up on the big stage. Having said that, this album was a bit of a let down....half of Blinks great tracks are missing. Songs like 'M&M's', 'Josie', ...  Read the complete review

This is suppose to be a live album of Blink, however when you listen to it, you realize that it is a studio version of a live Blink concert. Everything has been redone to make them sound more like they do on their albums than what they actually sound like live. If you ever have seen Blink 182 live, you know they suck. Tom sings way off key and very loudly, Mark - well he sings half way decent. You can't even hear Tom singing background vocals in any of the songs on this album, and if you can faintly make him out, they raise the background music higher and make his voice very soft. The reason kids keep going to their shows though is because they ...  Read the complete review
