More blink-182 blink-182

The departure of vocalist/guitarist Tom Delonge from Blink-182 divided fans and sent the pop-punk community into chaos, and now videos of the band’s first show with replacement Matt Skiba have surfaced.

Blink-182 blew up in January when bassist Mark Hoppus and drummer Travis Barker issued a press release saying that Delonge had left the band and they would be playing a festival with the Alkaline Trio frontman as a replacement.

Since then, they’ve shared pictures of the three rehearsing for a couple of festival dates and club shows with A Day To Remember, and last night played their first show together at The Roxy in Hollywood.

Fan videos of the event have begun surfacing (sorry about the quality), and here’s how Blink-182 sounds without Tom Delonge:

Delonge is releasing his debut solo record, To The Stars, on April 20, which is a collection of songs rumoured to by unreleased Blink-182 demos and other bits and pieces.
