Scott Raynor plays the drums in blink-182’s 1997 hit Dammit
SCOTT Raynor may not be recognisable to many – but at one point he was in one of the biggest pop punk bands in the world.But two decades before that, Scott was the original drummer of band Blink 182 – singing about first love and cracking jokes with Mark Hoppus and Tom Delonge.
In 1992, they were introduced to Hoppus and the trio formed what became Blink 182. Their demo album, Buddha, was picked up and they were eventually signed to a record label MCA after a bidding war.However, around that time Raynor's parents moved to Reno, Nevada, prompting him to have to flay in and out of San Diego in order to remain in the band.
The band's second album, Dude Ranch, came together in 1996 and broke them through as one of the biggest up-coming artists of the time. This was largely thanks to their single, Dammit, which remains consistent on the band's set list to this day.Taylor Swift takes to stage as thousands pack out first UK Eras tour show
While Raynor agreed to the treatment, he was eventually let go from the band anyway and replaced by Travis Barker, who had previously filled in for Scott when he was forced to miss a show due to a family crisis. He added he was no longer friends with Hoppus and DeLonge, saying: "We went down our different paths which to me was the right one. They are doing things that they wanted to, that I wouldn’t have done, and vice versa."
