Blink-182 Add Three Extra Shows To UK Summer Visit & Tickets

Blink-182 have added three arena shows to their UK visit, either side of their already confirmed appearance at the Reading and Leeds Festival.

It would seem that the reform of Blink 182 is going strong as the Californian punk pop band announce they will play the extra UK dates at Aberdeen’s AECC on 16th August, SECC Glasgow on 17th August and then following their festival shows, Dublin’s O2 on 31st August.

It is expected that more UK shows are to be added to the gig list in the coming months as the band are set to embark on a European tour this summer. Playing the Reading and Leeds festival weekend as part of the tour, the band have already confirmed they will headline the Leeds Stage on Saturday 28th August and then Reading Stage on Sunday August 29th.

Formed in 1992, Blink-182 have become a critical band in the pioneering of contemporary punk pop music. Influencing many bands over their career, although the group maybe punk pop, they have no doubt experienced the highs and lows of a lifestyle led by any gritty punk rock band.

Hitting the mainstream and gaining massive success with their 1999 album ‘Enema Of The State’, Blink-182 maintained their popularity with their follow up records ‘Take Off Your Pants And Jacket’ in 2001 and self-titled ‘Blink-182’ in 2003. Like all good things though, 2005 saw guitarist Tom Delonge depart the band and an indefinite hiatus was announced. Blink-182 came to an end.

Now after enduring some tragic events including the death of their producer and the surviving of a near fatal plane crash for drummer Travis Barker, Blink-182 are back with an album expected sometime later this year.

Blink-182 have announced the additional UK and Ireland shows:

August 2010

16th AECC, Aberdeen
17th SECC, Glasgow
31st The O2, Dublin

More UK shows are expected to be announced soon.

Tickets are on general sale from 9am on Friday 9th April. Please check back for additional shows and presale information.
