More info on this show : 

3/30/1996: The band performs at SOMA in San Diego, California; this was a free show.

Other bands include Radiohead, Cast, Insane Clown Posse, David Gray, Bouncing Souls, Cracker, The Goops.

Halloran and I were just talking about how stoked we are for 91X’s Wrex The Halls 2016 and how hard he has been working behind the scenes to pull these shows off for all of us. “Do you remember that show in ’96, at Soma?” he asked me as he Googled “Party Primavera Blink” or something like that. “Check out this lineup!” It was 1996… Radiohead was playing Soma, and we got Blink 182 (and Insane Clown Posse?!?) to open the show along with Cast and Bouncing Souls and Cracker… and tickets were only $10.91. MIND = BLOWN!

11/4/1995: The band performs at Jannus Landing in St. Petersburg.

Change of venue : *This took place at the State, not Jannus. Low ticket sales are a helluva drug.* 

And poster for the show 

 

going through and updating everything and this is one cool post. for years, it's been documented that it took place at jannus landing in st. pete. on old flyers, a newsletter, online... and now we get word it was somewhere else due to ticket sales. while we can't verify that it's truthful, guy has no reason to lie, so i included that. that's the type of stuff i like adding here.

Blink-182 road report

Mark plays bass.

Day one - June 3, 1997

The first day of tour is always the craziest, and today was definitely no exception. Trying to organize gear, merchandise, band order, guest lists and everything else creates a great deal of confusion. But after the first few hours, everything started rolling along pretty well and everyone got stoked. It's great seeing all our old friends - crew from the last warped tour, bands who we haven' seen in a while, etc. We played last today, so there was plenty of time to kill. Walked around and talked to a lot of kids, sold merchandise for a while, and got a squirtgun from Arnette with which I walked around and squirted random girls. Watched the vandals play, and they ruled like always. Warren is still the biggest freak of nature to ever walk the face of the earth. Just like last year, there wan't enough water backstage. Everyone got really sunburned. Tom looks like an overweight Rudolph. He'll be peeling in a few days. Our set went well, but the show was running long, so we got cut short, but no big deal. We got lucky, and get to ride on the production bus with the crew. We've never ridden on a bus before and the thing is absolutely insane! There's a big screen, tv with DirecTV, a vcr, cd player in the front AND in the back. And everyone gets their own bunk. It's going to be so cool to not argue over who is going to drive all night. I'm sleeping on the last bunk on the bottom in the back. My home for the next five weeks. Now we're at a hotel taking showers before we get on the bus and drive to LA for tomorrow's show. I'm very tired and sunburned, but also kind of excited. This is going to be a fun show.

7/6/1997: The band performs at Pier 30/32 in San Francisco, California.

The first band that played was Blink 182, bringing some of that kickass San Diego punklove to kick off the day. What a way to wake up.

Finally got through this whole thread, amazing stuff @boxelder @Thibaut182 @Zoltan @Cheerios4u98 @daveyjones and anyone I'm missing who contributed.

Would definitely be cool to make the timeline a bit more "interactive", where a click may take you to the ticket stub or pix/videos from the show, as opposed to an archive link or other link. I'm sure it is a ton more work, but this is awesome and definitely worth building on for historical purposes! Keep up the good work!

I was cracking up watching all the people get on stage to stage dive, specifically on the 6/15/1998 Baltimore show. It's crazy how times change. Obviously in today's world you can't just climb on stage without being tackled by security, but even from the band's standpoint it's just really weird having random people run around you so close while you try to play! You would think it would mess you up!
