Blink Is back, ALRIGHT!!!


So Last Thursday, i had one of the greatest experiences of my life. It was one in which i did not think i would be able experience ever, in lieu of certain events. I don't know if any of y'all are getting what i'm hinting at, but last thursday i saw BLINK-182 LIVE!!!!!

For those of you that don't know Blink-182, the pop punk band founded in 1992, went on an indefinate hiatus in 2005. This marked a period of sadness and depression in the music world, that would only be lifted when in 2009, at the grammy's, Tom DeLonge, Mark Hoppus, and Travis Baeker announced that they were getting back together and going on tour! Yes it was a day of much joy for the world.

But I digress. The show at the Woodlands Pavillion was INSANE!!! Not only was Blink-182 there (which i would have gone to see if it were only them), but Fall Out Boy, The All-American Rejects, and Asher Roth(The guy who sang "College"), were all there playing a set as well!!!. This may very well have been the greatest concert i have and ever will have attended, in my life.

Every band put on an incredible show. A personal highlight was when Fall Out Boy covered Journey's "Don't Stop Believing". It was at this point, that i reached a state of Nirvana like i had never reached before. Another highlight was when Travis Barker performed a 7 minute drum solo... WHILE FLYING!!! i can't describe it. it was amazing!!! To even this date, i still relive the concert in my head!

-Sigh- Long live Blnk!!!
