8) Blink-182 & LL Cool J – Dammit/Mama Said Knock You Out (live) 2013
Before the well-publicized split of Blink-182, they hosted an anniversary party for their self-titled album at the Wiltern Theatre in Los Angeles. The “ho-hum” performance (mainly due to vocalist Tom DeLonge’s lack of effort) closed with the hit single “Dammit,” as many blink shows often do. In the middle of the song, bassist and vocalist Mark Hoppus announced rapper/actor LL Cool J to the stage. The band and rapper then performed LL’s 1990 hit song in one of the most confusing finale’s in blink-182 history. Sure, LL Cool J can bring flare to a stage, but in the middle of many fans’ favorite song? It was an odd choice to say the least.
