Blink-182 is heading out on a massive world tour in 2023 and 2024 with its longtime lineup of Mark Hoppus (bass, vocals), Travis Barker (drums), and Tom DeLonge (guitar, vocals), the latter of whom has not been involved with the group since 2015. The trio will celebrate the announcement with the release of a new single, “Edging”, on Friday, October 14th.

The new track marks the first output from the Hoppus-Barker-DeLonge Blink-182 lineup since 2011’s Neighborhoods, for which the members largely recorded from different locations amid mounting intra-band tensions. A press release notes that the “Edging” recording sessions were the first time in a decade that the three musicians had been in the studio together.

The tour, touted as the pioneering ’90s/’00s pop-punk outfit’s most ambitious outing to date, will begin in March 2023 with a Latin American run of headlining shows and high-profile festival appearances including headlining sets at Lollapalooza events in Argentina, Chile, and Brazil.

The band will arrive in the U.S. on May 4th, 2023 for a show in St. Paul, MN before spending May, June, and July frequenting arenas and stadiums across North America. In September, Blink-182 will travel across the pond for 20+ European tour dates before returning the the States to headline the 2023 edition of When We Were Young Festival in Las Vegas, NV. Finally, Hoppus, Barker, and DeLonge will round out the global trek with a trip to Australia and New Zealand in February 2024.

Travis Barker solidified the band’s lineup in 1998 after original drummer Scott Raynor was ousted from the trio due to his struggles with alcohol abuse. Hoppus, Barker, and DeLonge went on to become one of the biggest acts of the late 1990s and early 2000s with albums like 1999’s Enema of the State, 2001’s Take Off Your Pants and Jacket, and 2003’s Blink-182.

DeLonge has left the band on two separate occasions. In 2005, Blink-182 took an “indefinite hiatus” due to the guitarist’s desire to tour less and spend more time with family. During that time, Hoppus and Barker continued to perform together as +44 while DeLonge formed Angels & Airwaves. Blink-182 re-formed in 2009 for an often dysfunctional reunion stint that ran until 2014. In 2015, DeLonge exited the band once again and was replaced by guitarist Matt Skiba. Blink-182 has released a pair of successful albums, 2016’s California and 2019’s Nine, in the time since DeLonge’s last departure. DeLonge has found new notoriety as a UFO researcher, among other things.

The latest Blink-182 reunion wave began to build when Hoppus was diagnosed with cancer in 2023. When both DeLonge and Barker happened to visit Hoppus at his home at the same time, the three had an impromptu reconciliation. “We got into more life stuff. What we’ve learned over the years about ourselves. How we’ve grown, how nothing really matters when it boils down to what we were dealing with in that moment,” DeLonge told GQ of the chance meeting in a 2021 interview. “And so, it wasn’t some big meeting about Blink-182, it was more about brothers meeting and saying, ‘How do we support Mark?’”

Hoppus’ chemotherapy proved to be successful. In September 2021, he announced in an Instagram post that he was cancer free. On Halloween he appeared during Barker’s House of Horrors livestream for his first live performance since his diagnosis.

Never a band to shy away from innuendo, Blink-182 revealed its latest reunion and new track via a pharmaceutical commercial-style video all about how “they’re gonna come.” The end of the video also features a snippet of “Edging”, though it appropriately does not play to completion.
