ok here we go...
when i asked him about blink he said this:
"no i wouldn't want to be popular with blink"
"i never would've got naked . I wouldn't have gone that far. But money did become attractive, but I can use that money for good things now, I don't have many material possessions and the ones I do have are tools for education."
( ketika saya tanya dia tentang blink, dia berkata seperti ini :
"tidak, aku tidak ingin menjadi terkenal dengan blink"
"aku tidak akan mau telanjang (WMAA). aku tidak ingin terlalu jauh seperti itu. tapi uang menjadi daya tarik, dan aku dapat menggunakan uang tersebut untuk tujuan baik sekarang, aku tidak mempunyai banyak keinginan yang berhubungan dengan maetrial dan satu yang aku punya adalah alat untuk pendidikan." )
"it's hard to describe 6 years of being in blink and why it ended for me in a summed up kind of way. It also is impossible to describe without getting personal on both sides. The best way for me to put it is that everything got kinda haywire in my personal life, and in the band, and with Mark and Tom. They wanted different things than me and at the same time our friendship was put to the test and it kinda failed ... but 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.
I just enjoyed the times when we were all in a van and loading our own gear and sweating and stinking and all that. That's where I feel most comfortable and I think I was uncomfortable moving into the, "other world." I didn't like doing encores and stuff it seemed,"fake," to me. But everyone says that's part of being an entertainer, but to me music isn't just entertainment. It is life blood, and a force that can change the world for the better."
( "sangat sulit menggambarkan 6 tahun bersama blink dan mengapa hal itu berakhir bagiku dengan jalan yang seperti "ini". juga sangat mustahil untuk menjelaskan tanpa menyinggung sisi kedua belah pihak (Scott vs. Tom & Mark). jalan yang terbaik untukku adalah melupakan kenangan di kehidupan pribadi ku, dan di band, dan dengan Mark & Tom. mereka menginginkan sesuatu yang berbeda daripada ku dan pada saat yang sama persahabatan kami sedang diuji dan sepertinya itu gagal... tapi kami memilih jalan yang berbeda yang bagiku itu adalah langkah yang tepat. mereka melakukan apa yang mereka mau, yang aku belum lakukan, dan sebaliknya.
aku sangat menikmati waktu dimana kami berada di dalam van dan mengeluarkan perlatan kami masing-masing, dan berkeringat, dan menjadi bau, dan semuanya. keadaan itulah dimana aku merasa nyaman dan aku rasa, aku menjadi kurang nyaman saat kami berpindah ke "dunia lain." aku tidak suka melakukan sesuatu yang berulang-ulang. itu terasa sangat "palsu" bagiku. tapi semua orang berkata itulah bagian dalam menjadi seorang entertainer, tapi bagiku musik tidak hanya hiburan. itu adalah darah kehidupan, dan gerakan yang dapat mengubah dunia menjadi lebih baik." )
according to a website thats says: "scott's leaving the band is handled rather blandly,
with no mention of alcohol, fights with jordan (scott's girlfriend back then) or the infamous incident at the hotel coronado that left scott's heels broken"
i asked scott about this and he said:
"they are refering to my ex-girlfriend and all the disfunction involved. i got drunk and fell out of a window at a hotel when i was celebrating blink getting signed to a major label."
( merujuk kepada website yang mengatakan: "Scott meninggalkan band dengan lemah lembut (tanpa keterpaksaan), tanpa ada isu alkohol, perkelahian dengan Jordan (pacar Scott) atau kecelakaan di Hotel Coronado yang menyebabkan tumit kiri Scott patah."
ketika saya tanyakan pada Scott, dia berkata:
"mereka mengacu pada mantan pacarku dan semua disfungsi yang dilibatkan. aku mabuk dan jatuh dari jendela hotel saat merayakan blink yang masuk ke dalam major label." )
"i started drinking because i wanted to and i stopped because i wanted to."
"i was fired because i didn't like them and they didn't like me"
"blink asked me to quit drinking and i said i would but they decided that they weren't goin to trust me, so they fired my anyway. but it's ok becasue we are both better of, life works funny like that sometimes."
( "aku mulai minum-minum karena memang keinginanku dan aku berhenti karena keinginanku juga."
"aku dipecat karena aku tidak menyukai mereka (Mark & Tom) dan mereka pun tidak menyukaiku."
"blink (Mark & Tom) menyuruhku untuk berhenti minum dan aku berkata aku akan melakukannya, tapi mereka memutuskan untuk tidak mempercayaiku lagi, jadi mereka memecatku begitu saja. tapi itu ok karena kami sudah berjauh-jauhan, hidup berjalan sangat lucu seperti itu kadang-kadang." )
"I was contacted over the phone and asked to quit drinking. I asked for the weekend to think about it, I came back and agreed. They said, "too bad," and I don't really know why.
Well it was rude to do it over the phone so I went to one of their shows just to show my face. Tom asked how I was and I think Mark was scared I was going to flip out. I just wanted to show my face, and that's all I did, and then I left."
( "aku ditelepon dan diminta untuk berhenti minum. aku meminta akhir pekan untuk memikirkannya, aku kembali (kepada mereka), dan menyetujuinya (berhenti minum). mereka berkata, "terlalu buruk," dan aku tidak tahu mengapa.
bagiku sangat kasar melakukan hal tersebut lewat telepon. jadi aku pergi ke show blink hanya untuk menunjukkan mukaku saja. Tom bertanya bagaimana keadaanku dan aku pikir Mark sangat ketakutan kalau aku marah. aku hanya ingin menunjukkan wajahku, dan itulah yang aku lakukan, lalu aku pergi." )
"but i guess they had travis in mind before i got kicked out. because they played with him before when i had to fly home cause of an emergency."
when mark and tom were asked if they miss scott, they said: "no, not at all"
after blink he played in different bands
( "tapi aku pikir mereka sudah mempertimbangkan Travis di dalam pikiran mereka sebelum memecatku. karena mereka bermain dengan Travis sebelum ketika aku harus dipulangkan ke rumah karena keadaan gawat darurat."
ketika Mark & Tom ditanyakan apakah mereka merindukan Scott, mereka berkata: "tidak, tidak sama sekali. )
he played guitar in the bands: the axidentals, the redliners, death on wednesday,
he played drums in the bands: one track mind, trailer park queen, abing abang aboom, grimby
and he tried to get a record label goin called "good guerrilla" i wanted to put that together because i wanted to make a label for charity causes and i wanted to help, not that the san diego scene need help, i just wanted to be part of it. i wanted to help out any way i could, help younger bands and things liek that. i wanted to do a compilation where all the proceeds go 100% to chartities. i made some money wheni was in blink and i figure this is my way of kinda giving back to the community of sandiego. without san diego blink never would've gotten where they were. and he later said "it doesnt exist yet and probably never will. i didnt lose interest. i devoted my time to doin more charity work instead."
"i do charity work with -stand up for kids- i do outreach and cener counseling. we go out on the streets with backpacks full of food and hygiene products and we give it to the kids on the street. we also have a center where kids can come out and get hot meals and stuff like that. and i'm a teacher at a community college non-profit program called -street of dreams- that teaches music and poetry to juveniles in trouble with the court school system. i help with the street light paper - the homless paper in san diego. i also helped to re-built soma."
when i asked scott about the last song he recorded with blink he said:
"i know that -i won't be home for christmas- was the last time i recorded with them"
( ketika saya menanyakan tentang lagu terakhir yang ia rekam bersama blink, dia menjawab: "Aku ingat 'I won't be home for christmas' adalah terakhir kalinya aku rekaman bersama mereka. )
Jason: One thing that has always bothered me is that with the "new blink" (if u will) is that with all their "biographies, DVDs, and books" it seems that you are at times looked over, and that they only start as a band when Travis joined. I know a lot of us older fans get really annoyed by that whole situation. What are your feelings on that?
( Jason (si pewawancara): satu hal yang selalu menggangguku adalah dengan "blink yang baru" dengan segala "biografi, DVD, dan buku-buku." kelihatannya kamu diabaikan, seakan-akan mereka memulai sebagai sebuah band ketika Travis bergabung. saya tau banyak fans-fans lama yang sangat terganggu oleh situasi tersebut. apa yang kamu rasakan? )
Scott: Yah, that's one of my big heart aches over the whole thing. I put 6 years into something I loved and not only is it stolen from me by people I thought were my friends, but I am left behind in the dust. I started that band with Tom. They even made some story about how Tom and Mark met and then recruited me, they are rewriting the books, it's weird.
( Scott: ya itulah salah satu sakit hati ku yang paling terbesar dari semuanya. aku mengorbankan 6 tahun dengan sesuatu yang aku cintai dan itu tidak hanya dicuri dariku oleh orang-orang yang aku kira adalah temanku, tapi aku juga merasa ditinggalkan di dalam debu. aku memulai blink dengan tom. mereka bahkan membuat cerita tentang Mark & Tom yang saling bertemu dan kemudia merekrutku, mereka mengarang cerita itu, sangat mengerikan. )
Jason: Did you attend Poway High School with Tom? I had only heard rumors that Tom and you actually started the band.. but your saying that is how it happened .. right?
( Jason: apakah kamu sama-sama SMA di SMA Poway dengan Tom? saya dengar rumor bahwa kamu dan Tom lah yang membentuk blink. tapi kau berkata itulah yang terjadi.. )
Scott: That's what I am saying. I was in a band with my friend Paul Scott, but he had to move. I was a freshmen at Poway when Tom was a senior. Paul knew Tom needed a drummer, so (before we moved) we went to this party where Tom was gonna be and I met Tom. We started playing, and then there was a guy named Derek that played guitar for a while, and we tried out a couple bass players. Then we met Mark. Then Mark quit and then he came back.
( Scott: itulah yang aku katakan. aku sedang dalam sebuah band dengan temanku Paul Scott, tapi kemudian dia harus pindah. saat itu aku masih junior di Poway dan Tom sudah senior. Paul mengethui bahwa Tom membutuhkan drummer, jadi (sebelum Paul pindah) kami pergi ke sebuah pesta yang dihadiri oleh Tom. kami mulai bermain bersama, dan kemudian ada seorang yang bernama Derek yang bermain gitar sebentar, dan kami mencoba mencari pemain bass. kemudian kami bertemu Mark. lalu Mark keluar tapi kemudian dia kembali lagi. )
Jason: The period where Mark quit was due to his girlfriend -- but then he came back -- right?
( Jason: periode dimana Mark keluar adalah karena pacarnya -- tapi kemudian dia kembali lagi -- benar seperti itu? )
Scott: You got it
( Scott: ya benar. )
