The iconic pop punk trio surprised fans by becoming a late surprise addition to the 2023 Coachella Festival line-up. Travis Barker and Mark Hoppus were joined by the returning Tom Delonge in an emotional comeback performance.
The band’s setlist was everything fans would have hoped for and more, with obvious hits such as “What’s My Age Again?”, “First Dates” and the meme inspiring “I Miss You”. The band also played their new song “Edging” live for the first time and treated long-time fans to “Aliens Exist”, a song that hadn’t been performed by the trio of Mark, Tom and Travis in over two decades.
The performance was an emotional one for several reasons, not only was it the first time fans were seeing this incarnation of Blink-182 in eight years, but it was also a reminder of Bassist Mark Hoppus’ recent battle with cancer. The emotions may have ran high but in true Blink1-82 style, a d**k joke was never too far away. We’re so glad to have you back boys!
