Q. I’m looking for a clip of a band I saw at Blink/Trash? Is it on the site

Not every band that plays at blink gets recorded, and not every band that gets recorded is featured on our site. All past video releases are available to our members. If you have signed up but still can’t find the clip you are after, please feel free to ask about it through the contact page. If we have footage of that band we will try to get it on the page for you, otherwise we’’ll try to catch them next time they play at the club.
