Blank281 was selected out of thousands of tribute acts across the states to appear on the Jimmy Fallon produced TV show Clash of the Cover Bands 2021 series 1 episode 5 on E!

Do you remember the first time you heard Adam's Song playing on the radio? We're you driving in your car acting stupid with your best friend? Or the first time you saw Tom Delonge's Daphne Blue guitar in the All the Small Things video. We're you still in high school wanting to ditch your lecture to go watch MTV or the girls play soccer? Or the first time you heard the intro riff to What's My Age Again? Who could forget the naked trio running down the street!

That's just it. Blank281 takes you on a Nostalgic ride through Blink182's early releases and tours from (phone number hidden)8 to their mainstream breakthrough and success in (phone number hidden)4. Through their three year Hiatus, their reformation to the lineup change of today. Although the main concentration is on Tom. They are the closest thing you are going to get to the Mark, Tom and Travis show!

Blank281 fans have been packing in venues across America for the last 12 years to see them perform. They cum to the show knowing they will have an opportunity to relive their youth through a true Blink182 experience! So sit back and enjoy the ride as these guys don't take themselves too seriously but they might ask you to Take Off Your Pants and Jacket and if you Blink you might just think it's them!
