SCOTT'S STORY

I’m sure most of you know who Scott Raynor is but for all you wannabe Blink fans here’s some more info…Scott Raynor was the drummer in the band Blink182 for the albums Flyswatter, Buddha, Cheshire Cat and Dude Ranch. There have been many rumours as to why he actually left…some say that Mark and Tom got sick of always seeing him drunk and asked him to leave, but the truth is he left the band on good terms to go back to University and gain his degrees. Apparently he had to head back home straight away…this meant he left Mark and Tom without a drummer 45 minutes before one of their concerts. Travis Barker of the Aquabats stepped in and learnt all the songs in the 45 minutes. (Tom had to go get some softer drumsticks so the other bands couldn’t hear Travis practicing behind stage.) Travis was asked to play with the band permanently after the concert. Scott is now in a local band and is supported by the members of Blink 182.
