Mark Hoppus talks Blink-182 reunion possibility

Mark Hoppus recently talked with MTV News about the progress towards a possible Blink-182 reunion.

"We were three friends in a band, writing music that we loved," explained Hoppus in this Part 1 of a two-part interview. "That's where it began and ended. Before there's reunion talk, we need to get back to that point again. Actually, we would need to get beyond that point, to a place where you can say to someone, 'Hey, man, I'm not really feeling this,' and be able to argue constructively about the music."

"If - and this is a big if - Blink-182 were ever to re-form," elaborates Hoppus, "it would have to be the most amazing, ridiculous, mind-blowing show and tour ever. I feel like, as bitter as our breakup was, we stepped back at the top of our game, and we'd have to come back even stronger and better than before."

The interview comes on the heels of the November news that Hoppus was "reconnecting as friends" with Tom DeLonge after a long period of silence.
