blink-182's Mark Hoppus joins Jimmy Eat World for A Praise Chorus at the Hollywood Bowl
The guest spot came during a Los Angeles show where the band played Bleed American front to back for the album's 25th anniversary.
blink-182 bassist and vocalist Mark Hoppus joined Jimmy Eat World on stage over the weekend, singing "A Praise Chorus" during the band's performance at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles.
The song comes from Bleed American, the 2001 record that pushed Jimmy Eat World to the front of the emo and alternative conversation. At the Hollywood Bowl, the band performed the album in full, marking its 25th anniversary.
The pairing carries some weight for fans of the era. blink-182 and Jimmy Eat World were two of the acts that carried American pop punk and emo into the mainstream at the turn of the decade, and both left records that later bands still treat as blueprints.
Footage of the guest appearance was captured by fans at the venue and circulated shortly after the show. The Hollywood Bowl, one of Los Angeles' best-known amphitheatres, hosted the anniversary performance.
