They need to do an acoustic set playing old songs ALL this way, but only if Tom comes back, again... Thanks for the video, wish I could have been there.
i love how they are playing all these songs that they havent played live in FOREVER!! like wasting time, waggy, reckless abandon, going away to college, and all of this! :D they need to play more old songs like this from now on! like just at least one or two into their setlist :)
i was born in 97 and didnt get into blink until about 2nd grade, and yeah (thanks to kids bop) i bought enema as my first album, but i fell in love with blink. so then i got dude ranch and cheshire. i eventually got every cd including the mark tom and travis show. even though im 15 i still know just every song by heart. its not about age. its about how much you really love blink182. hahaha
This is AMAZING. What legends, they completely smashed the crap out of this performance and I love that they still have the same feel they did before when playing old classics.
I was at that gig and I was shocked that no one was singing along....I think a lot of people there were new fans.....I've been a fan since I was 16 and considering I turned 27 this year I know all of their stuff.....It was such a brilliant moment!x
damn, Mark must've had to relearn the lyrics to this song again, overall its great to see that they still embrace the old stuff that got them to where they are right now
This acoustic set was towards the end of the gig, they re-appeared near the back of the arena so all the other fans who were near the front were now behind them sadly. Still an awesome time though!
Love how nobody notices Marks wife Skye and his son Jack in the bottom right the whole time, i was right at the front and couldn't believe my eyes when they came out behind everyone. Best night of my entire life, i caught Travis' stick and Toms guitar pic!
Amazing. They didn't perform any acoustic tracks last Friday, I'm just hoping they carry this on until the 26th July at Brixton. Can't wait either way.
This was epic, this vid made my day....what am i saying this vid made my hole month!! I thought he had forgotten the lyrics ¬¬..sorry for putting your wisdom in doubt Mark...
Dude! I'm so jealous and happy for you at the same time. Haha. I REALLY hope they play this when they come back to Australia. My favourite song of all time. And i'm a sucker for acoustic.

I hope EVERY fan at this show one day realises how lucky they were to witness this.
Amazing performance.
If you didn't impress her with your band then, Mark, I'm sure you did now!
look at the way jack pays attention to his father singing ♥
Where is that creature?
thanks tom
thanks mark
thanks travis
thanks blink-182
thanks for all generations

+Darius Unknown I couldn't agree more with you
It was an amazing gig .
Tom is back now so hopefully they do this at some point.

Mark's wife: "I am married to a God"
Mark's son: "Where am I?"
He looks like hes never seen his father sing
Skye: visibly bored
Jack: stares at his dad singing
This song was made for acoustic, so damn amazing.

Coming back here in 2021 feels nostalgic. Miss you Tom!
I can't believe how lucky I was to actually witness this in person it was surreal and I shall never forget this moment it was amazing !
Mark's vocal and Tom's guitar tone are really awesome...!!
this song is great mark really nails it live
Sooo happy Mark's voice hasn't changed

This makes my day much better now.
I was there mate, I completely agree with this, not many people knew this song round by me. I was going mental!
Yep, blink's still got it after all. My favorite song off Cheshire followed by "Touchdown Boy". This video really made my day. Thank you.
Wow :) been a fan for 20 years now. Never gets old
This is the best Blink 182 song ever written! So glad you guys are playing this shit still!
This makes me so incredibly happy!!!!
this song is one of my favorites songs since '96 man, COME ON!!!!!!
exactly! everyone around was completely silent and i was singing my heart out ;)
Glad to hear that Blink-182 is still touching with their old roots :)
This acoustic set was towards the end of the gig, they re-appeared near the back of the arena so all the other fans who were near the front were now behind them sadly. Still an awesome time though!
holy shit first time ever only acoustic concert congrats blink ;)
one of the best songs of Cheshire
So glad I got to see this, best song of the set, made my night
I was there and met Mark after the show and got his signature, he was so kind:)
It was the most amazing experience I've ever had
This was definitely the highlight for me was so close! Absolutely adore Blink!!
This was like the best night ever. And then BOOM Wasting Time and Reckless Abandon...Almost shit my pants with joy.
thanks for upload this vdeo jst freaking awesome to hear them sing it live this song again!!!
I'm so glad that Blink is not neglecting all of their great songs from their past!! I cannot wait for them to come back to North America!
This was the highlight of the show, went absolutely crazy when they sang this
nobodys even paying attention st him singing theyre to busy recording it with their phones
I mean they would be doing it in 2001 too if they could.
I'm sure most of them didnt even know the song
This is my favourite Blink song ever!! They must play this again when I go tonight!!
When everyone rushed to the back to catch this , i snuck to the front and waited it out and got Travis' drum solo in my face! Best gig ever
Best night of my life!
