Blink-182 Gets Back Together

Blink-182's three former members—guitarist/vocalist Tom DeLonge, bassist/vocalist Mark Hoppus and drummer Travis Barker—are finally on speaking terms again, more than three years after the band's nasty breakup in 2005. Explaining the situation on his blog, Hoppus said, "We're just reconnecting as friends after four years of not talking. It's a good thing. Obviously the first question for a lot of people will be, 'Does this mean a Blink-182 reunion?' The answer is none of us know. We haven't talked about it at all. Right now it's just good for the three of us to see one another, reconnect and let the past be the past."

Hoppus and Barker formed +44 soon after Blink's split. DeLonge's own band, Angels & Airwaves, recently wrapped up a fall tour with Weezer. A Dublin show on December 16, 2004, was Blink-182's last show.
