Purpose of Article Talk Pages

Now I've heard it all
"Mutt was recorded by Scott Raynor"....I am whole-heartedly deleting the shit out of that sentence. Not only is it unfounded and unsourced, it is ridiculous. I play the drums. I am a hardcore Travis fan. I cant stress enough how ludicrous that is.--Atticus2020 23:08, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

Actually... while the version of "Mutt" on Enema quite obviously features Barker on drums, there is (or at least, was once) a version of "Mutt" floating around the Web that does feature Scott Raynor on drums (as evidenced by the much more rudimentary drumming and raw, pre-Enema sound of the track.) The existence of this version, the claims elsewhere on the Web that "Mutt" features Scott, and the suggestion in this article that a video may have been shot for the song at some point between 1997 and 1999, suggest to me that "Mutt" may very well have been one of, if not the, first track written for Enema, and that it was written early enough that it was originally recorded with Raynor on drums prior to his departure. Unfortunately, I presently can't seem to find a site hosting this version. I believe b182.com MAY have it, but the site seems to be down as I'm writing this. Josh, March 31, 2007

"Embraced by college students"
Regardless of how popular the album was at colleges, all the emotions they put down are not unique to college e.g. love, depression, missing loved ones, rebellion - I don't see how it's anything unique for college students. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.157.155.224 (talk • contribs)

M+M's
Am I the only one that noticed that M+M's is from dude ranch I think, or one of the earlier albums, and should not be talked about as a single in this article... No. I noticed it to, its beeing used as a example.

Used as an example or not, it's misleading. - Josh, March 31, 2007

Aliens Exist
I remember seeing Travis on TRL mention that the band was either going to make a video for Aliens Exist or release it and I figured it was going to be the 4th single. Anyone remember this or was a video made for this song? 12.73.239.53 09:04, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

well, mostly there appears to be just live versions, but i found this on myspace http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoid=2020171866. however, be warned--it's shot like a music video, but sounds like a live performance. tom's off-key and sounds nothing like the album track, and --sad!--if it was a live performance he would've done that cool line about "i got an injection of love from the erection/my best friend thinks i'm just humping guys" that he does in live shows....so yeah, i dunno what this is. but it's something!

this is just live performance, they played Adam's Dong too for MTV there. what about mention of the Enema demo in 1998, with Raynor — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.4.128.52 (talk) 19:05, 14 June 2012 (UTC)

Vandalism
I removed the sentence "The nurse uniform was found in a dumpster which was briefly used as shelter by iconic music producer Timbaland when he was a struggling homeless jaggoff." for obvious reasons.--72.24.207.77 (talk) 02:29, 10 May 2011 (UTC)
