brandonbrye asked: Hey Mark,
I am a huuuuuge fan of yours. Follow everything you do. Blink means the world to me and has impacted my life in so many ways. I am a graphic designer in NorCal and your music and style motivates, influences, and pushes me to stay creative. I once had the chance to meet Tom and told him "I feel like a 12 year old girl asking, but Can I have a hug?" He laughed and...

tr0ublemaker asked: Hi, Mark. I have two questions. First: Is true that one day blink-182 (one of you) said that you don't like a brazilian state called 'Rio Grande do Sul', who people live are called 'Gauchos' and you think they are gay? Even for joke, someone of the band said it or anything similiar? I heard it few years ago but I always had this doubt. And the second question: Why are you...
hotdoghandjobs-deactivated20120 asked: Hey Mark, Im soo excited to see you guys play in september, im a huge fan<3 I could honestly think of thousands of questions to ask you, but what i was wondering is, with all the stress and work put into your new album and your move to London, (plus the pressure placed on you by your fans), how do you cope with everything?
Thanks, Emily

arnauokeyok asked: Hey Mark! First of all, your Fender bass signatures are awesome (specially the pink and yellow ones...). Let me ask you something: are you going to release a brand-new line of Fender Mark Hoppus signature basses? Thank you! :)
herstreetsandschoolcityblocks asked: Even though you do owe Brazil a visit, I'm not gonna ask you when you're coming down here... My question is: what are the expectations on the new blink album? I've been a fan for 10 years now I still follow whatever the 3 of you do, do you think blink still has all the old fans, or a new generation is going to begin with the new music?
thejoester asked: When was work for this album actually started?
tomquinn asked: Will you be cutting the rest of bass/guitars you write in London or So. Cal?
sunstones asked: is it true that the single is coming out july 3rd !?!?
Today
last day in the house. if it doesn’t fit in the suitcase, it doesn’t make the cut.
finish tracking on three contenders for blink-182 singles, prepare for mix.
eat a sandwich from larchmont wine and cheese shop.
hoppus on music at 11pm.
fly to london tomorrow to find a place to live.
Good News
Woke up today to my son yanking my nose and pulling on my cheek skin. Hard. It hurt, and it took me a minute to register what was happening. After way too long, he stopped. Satisfied, he informed me, “you’re not an imposter.” So I’ve got that going for me, which is nice.
butterflyinthebelljar asked: Hi Mark, so I love writing and I was just wondering if you have a ritual or do anything special when you come to a writer's block?
roothakers asked: You are very handsome.
You mentioned recently that Blink-182 didn't want to be one of those bands that relied solely on your previous records and hits for your upcoming tour and that you would be playing new music.
How much of the tour set will consist of old music (read: things people my age bought at FYE on CD) and how much will consist of new music?

late night flight
late night flight from jfk to lax. in the past two days we taped a lot of great segments for hoppus on music. beady eye (former members of oasis), awolnation, simple plan, the brothers carney from spider man turn off the dark, cults, and a panel discussion on tour riders. we also shot two commercials for the show. question: why is my go-to television voice always just me yelling into the...

jruggiero asked: Hey Mark, longtime fangirl here. I dig the fact that we are the same age and you are still rockin'. That's the way life should be! ;) I'll be at the CLT show in the pit this summer. :) Anyway, I couldn't resist asking a question since you said "Ask me anything" on your new Tumblr. My question is.. Who inspires you to be the best Mark you can be?
