"The Mark, Tom, and Travis Show (The Enema Strikes Back!)" is Blink-182's only official live album. Released worldwide in 2000, only a million copies of this album were made. For those fans who discovered the band after its release, the CD became sought after by many and was renowned for its lack of availability. However, in July 2006 many copies appeared in shops like HMV fact|date=June 2008. It has since then gone back into print in Australia since January 2007 with as many as 3 copies being in stock at JB Hi-Fi music outlets across the country packaged in the original Digipak with the original limited edition sticker. It is believed this was a move conducted by their former record label to combat scalpers of the original 2000 issue selling their old copies on online auction site eBay for hundreds of dollars a copy. Online retailer Amazon.com is sourcing new copies from Australia for sale through their website. The record is also available on the Scandinavian e-store CDON.

The album contains songs from three of the band's studio albums: "Cheshire Cat", "Dude Ranch" and "Enema of the State", mainly focusing upon "Enema" tracks as they were currently touring that album release. "Man Overboard" was a newly released song, which soon became a single. It was originally written for the "Enema of the State" album, and is available on the "Enema of the State Demo". Following "Man Overboard", the album returns to a live environment with twenty-nine hidden tracks collectively known as "Words of Wisdom". These document examples of Mark and Tom's stage banter towards one another. Their toilet humor jokes are something the band was renowned for and are exampled here. The album also features previously unreleased material, including toilet humor songs, such as "Family Reunion" (released on Short Music for Short People in 1999) "Blow Job," and "The Country Song." "Blow Job" is censored as "Blew Job" on the track listing. Due to the fact that the album is a soundboard recording, applause seems to have been added in post-production.

ong changes

* In "What's My Age Again", Mark changes the words "What's my age again" to "Where's my Asian friend" the second time he says it in each chorus, then repeats the changed lyric at the end of the song.
* In "Going Away to College," Mark sings "But you're so beautiful, Skyly" (from his wife's name Skye Everly), instead of "But you're so beautiful to me."
* Mark changes the words in Carousel from "I guess it's just another," to "I had sex with your mother." The second time, he rolls his tongue and screams "Stick 'em!," a reference to the beginning of the song S.R. by Reel Big Fish. This way, the lyrics go "I guess it's just another/I guess it's just another/Stick 'em!"
* In "Aliens Exist" Tom changes the lines, "I got an injection/fear from the abduction/my best friend thinks I'm just telling lies" to, "I got an injection/of blood from the erection/my best friend thinks I'm just humping guys." When Tom sings the last line, "I'm not like you guys, twelve majestic lies", Mark chimes in afterward, singing "Tom has sex with guys".
