Blink-182 Reunites With Former Member During Milestone Punk FestivalWill SayreSeptember 20, 2025 at 10:15 PM0 Copied Getty ImagesBlink-182 made their mark in headlining Riot Fest this weekend — and not just by playing the hits.In addition to jamming alongside the Descendents’ Stephen Egerton during their headlining set on Friday, September 19, the iconic punk-rock band also reunited with Alkaline Trio’s Matt Skiba at Riot Fest 2025, NME reports.Skiba, 49, served as a member of blink from 2015 to 2022 while Tom DeLonge was absent from the Grammy-nominated group.The 20th anniversary of Riot Fest is happening this weekend in Chicago’s Douglass Park, with Green Day and Weezer headlining the other two days of the celebrated punk festival.During their Friday show, blink was joined by Egerton, 61, for a cover of the Descendents’ song “Hope,” from their acclaimed debut album Milo Goes To College (1982).But perhaps the bigger surprise Friday night was when Skiba, a former blink member, stepped onstage to perform a song alongside DeLonge, 49, Mark Hoppus and Travis Barker. They played the hit song “Bored To Death,” which was the first song the band released with Skiba as guitarist and co-vocalist.Here is the complete setlist from Blink-182’s Friday night show, per NME:”The Rock Show””First Date””Josie””Anthem Part Two””Online Songs””M+M’s””F–k Face””Dumpweed””Feeling This””Down””Turpentine””Bored To Death” (with Skiba)”Wishing Well”Stay Together For The Kids””Roller Coaster””Dance With Me””I Miss You”More Than You Know””Hope” (with Egerton)”What’s My Age Again?””All The Small Things””Dammit”Alkaline Trio has been the opening band on blink-182’s current Missionary Impossible tour, which kicked off in August and has dates remaining across the U.S. before its conclusion in Palm Desert, California on October 4, as NME noted on Saturday, September 20.It was announced earlier this month that blink-182 will headline next year’s Innings Festival in Tempe, Arizona, joining Mumford & Sons and Twenty One Pilots for the star-studded weekend. Blink is set to take the stage Saturday evening, as the festival runs from February 20-22, 2026.This story was originally reported by Parade on Sep 21, 2025, where it first appeared in the News section.
