Blink-182

Scott and I went to AZ's Fall Frenzy to see blink-182 on Saturday. Scott promised me that if they ever reunited he would go with me to the concert. He ate his words when they announced their reunion tour this year. I bought tickets the day they went on sale and he was going with me, no ifs, ands, or buts about it. And he hestitantly went, for me (sweet huh?). Turns out he had a great time too. I'm not suppose to tell you that but...oops. The place was packed, it was outdoors at Tempe Beach Park so it was standing room only. We got there around 7pm (blink-182 went on at 10:30pm) and found our spot...we shoved our way to the middle right next to a barrier that split an aisle down from the middle of the stage for security. We were plastured there the rest of the evening, we didn't budge because we did not want to loose our spot. We stood there until 12am when it was all over. It was worth it though! So fun!

This picture below is not good at all but all we had was Scott's cell phone and a few seconds. Anyway, at the end of Fall Out Boy's set (went on before blink), Pete Wentz (basist) jumped off stage and came down the middle aisle we were standing by. I stuck my hand out to high five him and just two people before he got to me, he jumped up on the barrier and fell into the crowd. We were completely star struck. I have never been that close to anyone famous. Mind you, I wasn't sure of his name until I came home and googled it, but still, very cool. So the pic is him jumping up (he's the blur) and his body guard (big guy, bald head) holding him up.

I just wanted to add that the night 0f the concert marked the one year anniversary of the plane crash Travis Barker (blink 182 drummer) was in that killed 4 people. They dedicated the night to him and man is he an amazing drummer! Seriously, he has skills.
