Blink-182 Virtual Music Experience

Monday, June 29th, 2009 @ 11:20 am | blink-182

From Ticketmaster.com:

virtual concert giveaway

Here’s an excerpt from the campaign proposal that explains the online event a bit better:

In July Doritos will launch a custom site that utilizes Augmented Reality technology to bring full fledged musical performances and behind-the- scenes exclusive access of Blink 182 and Big Boi right into consumer’s homes. Participants MUST have a ticket to activate the experience. Their ticket comes in the form of the Limited Edition Late Night Doritos bags and provide a virtual VIP experience. Tickets (aka Limited edition bags) go on sale July 6 across the country. A code will be printed on select packages of Late Night Doritos that, when held up to a webcam, will show a 3-D moving image (Jul/Aug time frame) treating the customer to a true late-night experience.

    I’m officially the idiot who put in a false address. The rules called the email address the “entrant” so I hope that they will send a code via email…

  11. Waggy Says:

    This HASSSSSSSS to be the thing they were doing with the green screen.

  12. Kyle Says:

    I feel like a n00b not understanding WTF this is.

  13. Chris Says:

    wtf?? uhh way to complicated.. ill just watch it on youtube when someone posts it.

  14. MaRcO Says:

    I think it’s just for american people =(

  15. 182 Says:

    I hope someone has a ticket and can rip the concert/video and post it on youtube/here.

  16. zach Says:

    so what about those like me who don’t have a webcam? does that mean i just can’t do it? because that would be pretty lame.

  17. 182 Says:

    It is the thing with the greenscreen, because when you log in you can see the trailer -_-

  18. Kay Says:

    great so the british are fucked if they wanna see it, huh? figures.

  19. Chris Says:

    yeah zach i feel ya… i have a shitty computer with no webcam…its older but im in college and im broke so as long as it’s working..but hey! im going out and buying a 40$ webcam right now… then going to install the webcam software that probably won’t even work on my computer..then waiting till july 6th so i can go out and buy a bag of chips this way i can reveal a secret code.. that when held up to my sick new webcam somehow displays a virtual 3d moving image…WHoa! all so i can sit alone at home and watch 4 or 5 songs by the best band in the world and uhhh? “Big Boi”…guessing by his spelling id say he’s well educated.

    or i can just wait till someone just rips it on youtube.

    hm…

  20. tony Says:

    I’ll just smoke a blunt… eat some Doritos and see my own 3d images

  21. Kyle Says:

    Well I’m sure someone will see it here.. so someone rip it. haha

  22. tom Says:

    2 words: SELL OUT … although this is the coolest thing ever

  23. Alex Says:

    Ok heres what this: Its a virtual concert, and your admission is a bag of doritos which you show via use of a web cam.

  24. Jon Says:

    The green screen thing was all mimed….so I don’t see how watching the will be all that great.

  25. D-dawg Says:

    Dude, I’m not smart. Not one bit. 182online, do YOU understand this? :(

  26. Blake Says:

    The website said it was a virtual concert. I wonder if they’ll release “Up All Night” with it because it is “Soon” after this week when the concert comes out July 6th.

  27. scott Says:

    WTF

  29. RonBurgundy Says:

  30. Dan Mill Says:

  31. Jamey Says:

  32. Hombre316 Says:

  33. chris Says:

    $5?? bitch charged me 10

  34. tom Says:

    well ronburgundy they sell out because they are doing this for doritos instead of for themselves. if they did this all for free instead of makin us buy chips then that would be cool, however, i learned a long time ago tht in this day in age seling out happens every day so i have come to accept it

  35. knarf Says:
