Because the one massive arena show in London next year wasn’t already enough, blink-182 have added a second night at The O2 – before general sale has even gone out.

Pre-sale demand to see Tom DeLonge back with Mark Hoppus and Travis Barker has clearly gone wild, so the pop-punk icons have added another show in the capital. They’ll now be playing two nights at The O2 with The Story So Far on Wednesday, October 11 and Thursday, October 12.

Remember: Tickets go on sale Monday, October 17 at 10am local time. Meanwhile, blink’s new single Edging drops tomorrow!

Speaking on his After School Radio show on Apple Music Hits this week once the news came out, Mark enthused: “We did it! blink-182 is back together, people. It’s happening. Yes, it’s happening. blink-182, world tour, new music, new album. Tom’s back. Man, I feel like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders. That was a burden to carry that secret for so long…

“Everyone’s on a good page. We’re all stoked, and lots of shows coming up. I am going to come to Brazil. Finally, 15,000 Instagram comments later, I’m coming to Brazil. Can’t wait. It’s going to be awesome. We’re going to so many places that we’ve never been before, and I am so excited. Got the band back together. We’re on a mission from God.”
