Biography
Mark (full name; Markus Allan Hoppus) was born in March 15, 1972 in California. He attended Burroughs High School in Ridgecrest, California. Mark's father's name is Tex, his mother's name's Carrie, and his younger sister's Anne (Anne Hoppus is currently dating Damon from Fenix TX. This info might be outdated at the time of speaking).
  
He is the bassist and vocalist of the group, and also the one appearing on-stage naked lol, at MTV's Castaway Countdown, during the band's performance of "What's my age again? ", and as if that wasn't enough, he appeared on-stage nude, again, at KROQ's 1999 Weenie Roast. But these are not the only things he does on stage: at a show in Boston, he took an inflatable sheep, shoved a drum stick up it's sphinkter, and tossed it into the crowd, but that's usual when being a Blink-182 member. He also hates playing any tours in Europe (or so he says). Despite all of that, Mark is an incredible song-writer: he wrote "Dammit" in just 5 minutes, about a break-up that never actually happened, "Going away to college" on Valentine's Day after watching "Can't hardly wait", and "Adams song" was inspired from a mail he received from a boy that committed suicide
  
He has two tattoos: One on each wrist. The left hand one has "Skye" (his wife) written on it and "Jake" (his son) on the right one. He has an ear-ring on his left eye and a piercing in his nipple His wife's name is Skye Everly (you can hear him say her name in "What's my age again" in the "Mark ,Tom and Travis show").
At every Blink show, Mark writes a different message on his speaker with white duct tape. Anything goes from "Hi Mom!" to "I have no idea where I am". Once he even wrote a message to Skye after they had been fighting over who loved the other more which said "I love you More". Skye works at MTV doing various jobs
  
Mark's hero of all time is none other than Homer J. Simpson. His favorite bands are "Jimmy Eat World", "Riverfenix" and the "Get Up Kids". His favorite movie is "Caddyshack", but he also thinks that Walt Disney's movies are great. His nickname in the band is "Fish Guts". He actually resides in Carmel Mountain Ranch, California.
