Tour Announcements & Upcoming Gigs

I really hope the reason Tom rejoined blink 182 is because the US government has admitted there are UFO's and Tom thought to himself 'My work here is done. Time to start making fuck tons of money again.'

The actual reason is probably much more bleak than that if you've been following Mark Hoppus.

I haven't been. That really sucked the fun out of my comment but I'm delighted he is now cancer free

Kinda funny/weird that the two times he’s rejoined Blink is because one of the other two members has nearly died.

The main thing is he's cancer free and is fit enough to go on a massive world tour, which is fantastic.

APE are really scraping the barrel for acts and I think they need a change in direction to sell tickets so blink wouldn't surprise me, be a huge sell out with a pop punk focused undercard.

Best thing APE can do is switch back to May and not be on the busiest festival weekend of the year.

They’d be a weird fit for APE but I guess it could happen

APE potentially?

I think someone said Blink is a LN tour. they are meant to be at the south american lollas which is LN too

Seeing the press releases and photos and seeing Mark so well is amazing to see. 

[Padjeq]

Had a great time at their last arena tour even though everyone around us opted to sit down for the whole thing. I'll be on the floor this time for sure.

edit: and the bars in the NIA closed before 9pm on this night only. very bizarre

  new album coming too!

[chazwwe]

A full pop punk/punk rock day at APE would be ace. If Blink didn't do it would Paramore be able to sell it?

it's not happening for blink, there's a London date after all. Paramore would be sweet though.

Was expecting them to just do the whole ‘reunion/greatest hits’ tour kind of deal for a while at least so a new album coming already is a pleasant surprise. Hopefully be better than the last Tom-less couple which were incredibly bland and by the numbers.

yeah those albums were bloody atrocious. Hope it's better than Neighbourhoods though, but I have a feeling it won't be

Had Neighbourhoods on this morning and it wasn’t as enjoyable as I remember it being at the time of its release - very so so, although better than the two that came after. Not expecting anything amazing from them as they’re stuck in that ‘adults trying to do grown up pop punk’ thing that so many acts like them struggle with, but hopefully be pleasantly surprised.

Yeah when I was younger I lapped it up but now you can see how half baked and slapped together it was. I'm literally expecting nothing decent from them and would have preferred them to just focus on the classics.

[banananey]

Had so much fun at their last London show with Matt Skiba but always wanted to see them with Tom.

I remember finding out Chester Bennington from Linkin Park had died just before they came on so it certainly helped cheer me up. One of those shows I don't really care they sound it's just a blast to sing along to all the bangers.

Thats the cooler version of this. 
 

 

Also, only in America do you get an inaugural festival putting its second year on sale BEFORE the first happens.

If anything says its going to be a disasters, its 100% this.

Absolutely no clue who might be headlining based off today's announcements!

they are announcing the stage times on the 17th. That will be a great indication on if it will be a disaster. Over 50 bands playing on one day on four stages but in two stage areas. Only two bands playing at any one time.

If they pull it off they should win the noble prize for organisational skills
