I saw Blink front row.. Mark Hoppus was the whole reason I got into playing Bass Guitar. He threw me his bottled water and I nearly peed my pants.
It was the Take Off Your Pants & Jacket tour.. Ticket sales weren't that great in Nashville (idk if it was like that in other places), so they gave away free tix with the purchase of their cd. My friend and I managed to get upgraded to front row from a scalper. It was great.
