QUOTES
All the really pretty girls get pregnant.Mark Hoppus
Everything in high school seems like the most important thing that's ever happened in your life. It's not. You'll get out of high school and you never see those people again. All the people who torment and press you won't make a difference in your life in the long haul.
Mark Hoppus
I dated the same girl all through high school.
Mark Hoppus
I did mostly good things, except light things on fire.
Mark Hoppus
I don't think of them as teenage songs. The things that happen to you in high school are the same things that happen your entire life. You can fall in love at 60; you can get rejected at 80.
Mark Hoppus
I lived in small town out in the desert and my friend used to steal his mom's car in the middle of the night. He'd drive over to my house, I'd sneak out and we'd go out to the desert and just burn things down.
Mark Hoppus
It totally ruins my voice. I quit smoking, drinking, and doing ecstasy.
Mark Hoppus
My parents were pretty lenient with me. But, they gave me morality while I was growing up. They taught me the difference between right and wrong.
Mark Hoppus
Parents don't understand kids and kids don't understand parents. My parents were divorced when I was really young and I went to live with my dad.
Mark Hoppus
Screw them. Yeah. But not literally. I'm not advocating promiscuity.
Mark Hoppus
Thank God I never got in a fight. All of the jock dudes hated me, but all of their girlfriends thought I was nice so they wouldn't touch me. It was infuriating to them.
Mark Hoppus
The naked thing was short-lived. It was only around for about six months because we thought it was shocking. Once people expected us to do it we kind of never did it again.
Mark Hoppus
The thing you realize as you get older is that parents don't know what the Hell they're doing and neither will you when you get to be a parent.
Mark Hoppus
We just kind of did our own thing and got made fun of by the popular kids. It was kind of like a badge of honor to be an outcast.
Mark Hoppus
We're really good friends and we hang out. It's like I get to hang out with my friends and get paid for it.

BIOGRAPHY :
Mark Allan Hoppus (born March 15, 1972) is an American musician and record producer. Hoppus is one of the founding members of the pop punk band Blink-182 and the alternative rock band +44. He plays bass guitar and provides vocals for both bands. As of late, Hoppus has produced albums for groups like Idiot Pilot, New Found Glory, The Matches, and Motion City Soundtrack. He is known for his lower voice and, in Blink-182, usually sings either lead or provides harmony and backing vocals for fellow singer Tom DeLonge.
PERSONAL LIFE :
Personal life
Mark Hoppus was born in Ridgecrest, California on March 15, 1972.[2] At the age of 15, Hoppus received his first bass guitar as a gift from his father Anthony and earned money for a set of amplifiers by helping him paint his garage.[3] Hoppus never took bass lessons, instead he taught himself by playing to bands such as the Descendents, The Cure, and Bad Religion. Hoppus played by himself and sang in the band Pier 69, primarily covering songs by The Cure. He also played in a band called The Attic Children in 1988, during this time he lived in Washington D.C.
Hoppus married Skye Everly in 2000 after meeting on the set of Blink-182's "All the Small Things" video shoot. Two years later, Skye gave birth to their son, Jack Hoppus on August 5, 2002. The three currently reside in Los Angeles, California.
Music career
He later moved to San Diego, where his sister Anne (now Anne McMurray)[1] introduced him to Tom DeLonge in August 1992. DeLonge was a friend of Anne's at the time, and constantly complained about wanting to join a band. When Hoppus first went over to DeLonge's house, he was told DeLonge would be at the local skate park. Hoppus went over and found DeLonge skateboarding with his friends. Hoppus wanted to impress DeLonge, so he climbed on a lamp post, jumped off and cracked both ankles and heels and was on crutches for three weeks. He then started playing with DeLonge in his garage and they recruited original drummer, Scott Raynor. They went on to form Blink-182. In 1998, Travis Barker joined the band during a tour in California. Blink-182 went on to record many more albums which made the band very successful. The band recorded two number one hits, "All the Small Things" and "I Miss You", before initiating a hiatus in early 2005.
In early 2009 Blink-182 reunited and subsequently mounted a nationwide tour during the summer, and are already working on material for a new album as well as a possible European tour in 2010. Although Hoppus still carries his work loads as a producer and duties to +44, he has stated that Blink-182 will be his main priority.
OTHER WORK :
After Blink-182 went on an indefinite hiatus in 2005, Hoppus wanted to continue to write and play music so he started +44, with fellow Blink-182 band mate Travis Barker. In 2006, they released their first album entitled When Your Heart Stops Beating. The band have recently signed a deal with Interscope Records and are currently in production of their second studio album.[4]
In early 2010, Hoppus started releasing music with a side project, 10 Hours at the Machine. In regards to this Hoppus released a statment through twitter stating "10HRSattheMACHINE is not blink-182 nor solo project. It's something I'm doing with friends while Tom finishes his album. Then blink-182!!".
Equipment
Hoppus has been seen using his signature Fender Mark Hoppus Jazz Bass in a variety of different colors since the days of Blink-182. Though considered to be a Precision Bass, Hoppus's signature consists of a Jazz Bass body with a Precision Bass neck and pickup. Recently, Hoppus's signature underwent a slight modification: the bodies are now made of Ash instead of Alder, making the bass lighter. The pickup locations were also switched from their usual positions: they were placed under the E and A strings was also placed under the D and G strings and moved above the original position, placed higher than the pickup under the E and A strings, giving the D and G bass strings a warmer, thicker bass sound. The pickups Hoppus uses are Seymour Duncan Quarter-Pound pickups, the same as is on the Fender Precision Bass. The current colors of his +44 touring basses include Olympic White, Sunburst and See-Through Blond all coupled with a tortoise shell pickguard. During Blink-182 first live performance his signature bass colour changes to white. Besides his signature basses, Hoppus was seen using one other bass guitar live on stage: the six-stringed Fender Bass VI, most notably for the song "I Miss You".[3] Mark also uses Fender Precision Bass which was first seen in Dammit, What's My Age Again?, and All The Small Things His later P-Bass like his signature bass has only one volume knob. His P-Bass last appearance was in the video Stay Together For The Kids with a Sunburst Colour and White Pickguard.His Sunburst P-Bass was also seen again with Mark recording (+44)'s second studio album. Prior to the use of Fender Basses, Hoppus heavily used Ernie Ball Musicman Stingray basses in various colors during the early days of Blink-182 up until the early Enema of the State period.
For live sound, Hoppus plugs his basses into three Ampeg SVT Classic bass heads running into two Ampeg 8x10 SVT bass cabs. Prior to the use of the all-tube SVT Classic heads, Hoppus used two Ampeg SVT-4 Pro heads which only feature a tube preamp.[5]
HiMyNameIsMark
"HiMyNameIsMark" (also known as 'The Morning Zoo') is a podcast that was set up in the wake of the hiatus by Hoppus, and can be found at HiMyNameIsMark.com. Every few weeks he released a show of songs by underground bands, interviews with band members and/or friends, and reminisces about happenings in his life. He is often joined on the show by his friends Chris Holmes (+44's engineer) and James Ingram (+44's assistant engineer). In 2005, Hoppus won the "Best Podcast" award, beating out many of the hottest podcasts. Hoppus has also created various side projects including "Hopp on Pop" where he reviews one of his favorite up and coming artists, some of which have been: Matt and Kim and Japandroids.
Non-musical endeavors
Hoppus and Tom DeLonge co-owned two companies, Atticus and Macbeth Athletics, Hoppus has since sold his share in both companies; as well as loserkids.com.[6]
Hoppus was a guest actor on an episode of the show Haunted in 2002.[7] He also wrote columns for Risen Magazine's March/April and May/June 2005 issues entitled "Beyond Us".[8] Mark Hoppus was also confirmed to be a part One Nine Nine Four, a film about the punk rock movement in the 90's.
