Blink-182's set was so amazing.
Given that this time around it was Matt performing instead of Tom, but I didn't mind. I liked the band with Matt, it had a fresh sense to it in a way. I was just lucky that I had seen them live when Tom was there.
I high fived each member as they came backstage and I thanked them for a great show and for letting me watch from side stage. They all smiled at me and thanked me for watching and we had a group hug which of course, was amazing.
I then headed down the steps to leave the stage, however, when I looked in front of me, I was greeted by Josh who looked as if he was waiting for me to come to him.
I walked up to him and raised an eyebrow.
"Josh?" I asked, "what are you doing here?"
"I wanted to see Blink's set too, I had some time to kill before we have to start prepping for our show and so I thought I'd come check out how Matt is doing." He told me.
"And your verdict?" I responded.
"Awesome." He stated.
I nodded to his reply. "They sure were."
There was a short silence between us before I spoke up.
"So...where's Tyler?" I asked, afraid of the response.
"I invited him to come along with me, but he...he said he was tired. Told me he was gonna take a nap so he would be refreshed for our show." He explained.
I nodded, "was he upset earlier?.."
Josh thought for a second and then shrugged. "I hadn't thought to ask him to be honest. Tyler can be like this on and off most times and so whenever he acts this way, I see it as routine."
I sighed slightly at his response. I guess I was just going to have to ignore Tyler for now.
"Anyway, wanna hang for a bit? I have about forty minutes til I have to go and set up for later?" Josh asked.
"Sure thing." I said, and we headed off to explore.

The forty minutes I spent with Josh were great. We watched a couple of bands finish off their sets, we looked around the merch stalls and just generally had a laugh with each other.
"You have Snapchat?" Josh asked me as he loaded his one up.
"Urm, of course!" I laughed, taking out my phone and showing Josh that I already had him added.
"Here, I'll accept you." Josh said. I smiled as I showed him my user name on his requests and watched as he tapped "accept".
"Awesome! Now that that's done, let's take some snaps for my story!" He said with excitement as he loaded up the many filters on the screen.
We took a few selfies together with the filters. Of course when it came to using the solar system filter, Josh had to caption it with 'spooky Jim'.
"Predictable!" I laughed as he hit 'my story' on the sending list.
"Well come on, it's kind of expected that I use that one!" He argued with a chuckle.
We then took one more selfie together with no filter, it was a really nice photo, so nice that I got him to send it to me so I could save it onto my phone.
I then watched as he wrote onto the selfie, "look who I bumped into again!"
Without warning, he sent it to Tyler and instantly my heart started beating a mile a minute as I watched the arrow appear, showing that it had been delivered.
A couple seconds later, the arrow goes clear, however Tyler didn't respond. Not at all.
"I'm sure he's just focusing for later. He'll be fine." Josh said, trying to reassure me, but I just wasn't sure.
I wasn't sure at all.
