    FROM MARK, TOM AND TRAVIS: It is with heavy hearts that we have to announce our planned 2011 European Summer tour has been rescheduled. When we booked the tour last year, we were confident that we would have the new album out before the Summer. Turns out wewere mistaken as the album is taking longer than we thought and won't be outtill later this year. We hoped we wouldhave some new songs to play rather than do another 'greatest hits tour' whichyou all saw last Summer. As much as weknow our fans would be cool with that, we feel that we owe you guys somethingnew when you spend your money to come see us. Frankly, it's what needs tocontinue for us to remain vital. Thethree of us are working very hard to do what we set out to do when were-formed...get a new blink-182 album recorded. Apologies to all of our fans who have bought tickets and were lookingforward to the Summer shows but we'll be back soon with the rescheduled datesin Summer 2012, have a new album out and be able to play new songs for you all.Thanks for all of the continued support and understanding.

    Would not be surprised if thoes June 2012 dates where scrapped next year and replaced with festivals.

    Doubt it, they'd really be taking the piss with their fans if they did something like that. Even though with the new 2012 dates the second weekend of July is left conspicuously free...

    Ah come on now The Saturdays will be better than Ke$ha.
    The Saturdays can actually sing, Ke$ha is just pure autotune and they're better looking.
    I'm happy Slash and Metronomy are announced, disappointed about Blink but thats just life isn't it?

    No clearly not. :) If you looked at the video I just linked to, it's a non auto tuned song. You've also clearly never listened to her album, many of the songs on it are just regular Lady Gaga-esque songs, without an element of auto tune. :)

    Just because people here are more interested in crap bands like QOTSA and whatever, doesn't mean that other more famous singers can't sing. :)

    As do most artists....

    You cannot claim that ke$ha is more talented than QOTSA unless you can show me that her career has lasted longer and she can play all the instruments as well as the members of QOTSA can.

    And you could barely hear her in that vid plus most of her album is autotuned. I've heard it

    She's a pure auto-tuner, generic 'rebel' pop-singer.

    Good for her but she still couldn't impress me unless she played an instrument herself. I also prefer artists who write there own songs!

    Ah well more time to plan a good night out.

    I don't know how their new album could take another year when Mark said it was "almost" finished and would "definitely" be out by this summer.
