What a sad day...

"Blink-182, famed for its practical jokes and disdain for clothing, has gone on "indefinite hiatus," with no plans to work together again, its Geffen Records label said Tuesday."

I like Blink. Not a ton, but it is sad to see them go. :(

They broke up?!

Now I hope my sister will forget about them and stop playing it 24/7.

They were an alright band, I remember back in the day thinking i was so hardcore, listening to "the rock show" :lol: Good times.

that is sad because i've seen them 3 times and each time they were getting so much better live, and their music was getting a lot more mature. the last cd was actually a good cd, too bad we can't see where they would've gone after it.

also, boo to the fact that this means there will probably be more of the transplants.

i agree. their last cd was very mature. it wasn't anything like their other stuff. i didn't really like much of their old stuff- just some of the slower songs (ie adam's song, stay together for the kids)

maybe they just want a break. i mean it's possible. though i don't understand why they would cancel a show.

"no plans to work together again"

it doesn't look good.

they didn't say that did they? i don't remember reading that. i read that they don't have any immeadiate plans to work together.
