Real World Interlude Blink again


Spent the past Saturday nite in Noblesville Indiana for our second (and sadly last) Blink 182 concert this year. We left later to miss the My Chemical Romance. After we got there, in and to our seats, those jokers were all but done. Thank the gods as after they left so did a majority of the 14 year old girls (and boys) that seem to make up their fan base.

Blink played a very similar set list, however Tom Delong was nursing the flu bug. This was fine as we got more Mark Hoppus songs. I like,both, but the Tom songs are usually faster and have more swears! The second chance to hear unreleased album music is always good and we got the same three "new" songs. Hopefully the remaining album is just as good, and if not it will still be better than their last self titled album (or African Child as we refer to it).

Another great concert, fantastic weather and some stellar curly fries on the ride home after the show.

Pre-concert was also phenomenal as we passed a S.U.V. that was on the shoulder and on fire. As we were cruising down 465 toward the venue we see the entire front end of a white S.U.V. engulfed in flames. It was awesome. The dudes who were in it were about 50 yards back in hysterics as the vehicle burned. It made for a nice pre show warm up. Yeah I just said that. A vehicle aflame in real life is soooooo much cooler than in the movies! We were hoping it would see the explosion in our rearview, but no such luck.

Now we wait until November, when we get to see Judas Priest on their farewell tour.
