We’ve updated the 182online tour page. It’s all up to date with all of the dates on for the European tour, including the Epicenter date.

All the dates have been announced for the European tour. There’s information on the supporting acts at the shows, and places where to get your tickets. There’s also a section in the forums exclusively for the European tour so you can discuss and count down the dates until your show, share pictures and talk with your fellow concert goers! You can see it here. If you do not have an account on our forums, you can easily sign up here. It only takes a couple of minutes and doesn’t expire.

There’s also some added features, such as adding the date to your Google Calendar and to iCal for Mac so you can count down the days until the show! To do this, simply click the “+” underneath the date and either click, “Add to Google Calendar” or “Download iCal”. You can also add the entire tour to iCal by clicking here to keep track of where blink will be at a given date, and see how long until the tour ends.

It’s pretty cool, so go check it out by clicking “Tour dates” in the banner or by clicking here!

Our good friends at The Rock N Roll Super Show took some exclusive photos for 182 Online of the TRV$ DJ-AM set at the KROQ Weenie Roast (and we were prepared just in case blink-182 did play a surprise set). They took these for us but there’s even more photos of TRV$ DJ-AM on their site as well as a review of the show! Stay tuned for some more collaborations with The Rock N Roll Super Show in the future. If you haven’t checked out the show, you can subscribe to their video podcast on iTunes or follow them on Twitter.

Blink-182 was on the Kevin and Bean show this morning on KROQ.  They talked about the past, present, and future of blink-182, possible tour names (including a fan recommended “One Way Ticket To Boneville”), the new album, Tom’s dogs, and more.  You can listen to a recording of the show here:

the return of blink-182 to the stage!!! t-mobile threw a big party at the paramount lot here in los angeles to launch their new sidekick, and they asked us to play. the whole thing was a secret. travis and dj-am were already scheduled to perform, and as a surprise ending, blink-182 came out at the very end and played a few songs. during the night, weezer performed and played the hits, along with a few covers. TRVS/DJ-AM dominated (as they always do), and then we played. to be honest, it was one of the best nights of my life. thanks to everyone who was there. thanks to t-mobile. and most of all, thanks to travis and tom. you are my brothers, and it feels amazing to share the stage with you once again.

here are some photos from throughout the day and night.
