Blizzard Entertainment's BlizzCon To Feature Live Performances By Blink 182

Blink 182 will be headlining Blizzard Entertainment's BlizzCon taking place from November 8-9 at the Anaheim Convention Center. The show will feature a wide variety of entertainment such as panels, tournaments, contests and even hands-on time with some of Blizzard's exclusive titles. Read on to learn more.

From the Press Release
Thousands of gamers are about to come to a party and celebrate all the big things (and all the small things too) . . . and maybe even fall in love with a gnome at a rock show when legendary Southern California punk rock trio Blink-182 headlines the closing concert at Blizzard Entertainment's sold-out BlizzCon gaming convention, taking place November 8—9 at the Anaheim Convention Center.

Acclaimed worldwide for their influential and groundbreaking pop-punk sound, Blink-182 has achieved massive critical and commercial success, with over 35 million albums sold. Their third album, Enema of the State, went quintuple platinum and catapulted the band into superstardom.

 Unfortunately for fans of Blink-182's "What's My Age Again?" video, Anaheim city ordinances strictly forbid the band from running naked through the streets around the convention center. BlizzCon attendees are kindly asked to adhere to the same policy.

 "After two days of hard work watching games and playing games and talking about games, we can't think of a better way to kick back and relax than to have your face melted by Blink-182," said Mike Morhaime, CEO and cofounder of Blizzard Entertainment. "We're thrilled to have such an awesome band helping us bring BlizzCon to an epic conclusion."

 "Nothing beats touring and playing in front of a live crowd," said Tom DeLonge, Blink-182 guitarist and vocalist. "Our roots are in Southern California, so playing at BlizzCon will be like having a show in our own backyard—only with a couple thousand more orcs and elves in loincloths and bikini armor."

 BlizzCon is a celebration of the global player communities surrounding Blizzard Entertainment's Warcraft®, Diablo®, and StarCraft® game universes. The show will have an array of activities, including discussion panels, competitive and casual tournaments, contests, hands-on playtime with current and upcoming Blizzard Entertainment games, and more.

 While tickets to the convention are no longer available, viewers at home can join the excitement by ordering a BlizzCon Virtual Ticket, which offers comprehensive live coverage of both days of the event, including Blink-182's performance, via multi-channel HD Internet stream for $39.99 USD (pricing and availability may vary by region).
