Ahead of the tour, the band said they are also releasing a new single “Edging” on Oct. 14.
DeLonge and Mark Hoppus started the iconic band in 1992. Six years later, drummer Travis Barker joined the team, and the group made the popular songs “What’s My Age Again?” and “All the Small Things.”
In 2015, DeLonge announced he was leaving Blink-182 to “change the world for my kids and everybody else’s,” according to Rolling Stone.
The trio released they were back together in very Blink-182 style. Watch the video below.
