Nice to see how they treat their uk fans.
Last date of UK tour was only 2weeks before this one starts!

Hate living in the UK ><

This news has induced a new level of anger. How dare they do a 40 date tour in the US before they've finished the album they postponed the UK tour for!! In case they've forgotten, they've already done a full us tour. The UK fans just got massively let down all over again!

Would consider going if rancid were higher up on the bill. But seriously wtf they just cancelled UK?

So, this is what they cancelled the UK dates for? The USA...a place that has had many a blink gig. Wow my estimation of them are going down and totally losing my faith in them!

They re-scheduled the Europe tour remember Travis takes a ship out their cause he doesn't fly anymore so he can't just travel across seas whenever. They want to put the new album out which will be this summer and then they can tour the States then it'll be Christmas and after that they'll head to Europe where mark is moving to. So don't trip peeps.

haha. how they treat their UK fans... how they treat their german fans isn't better, it's more worse, I would say. The last MCR tour had 3 dates in Germany... and they always come to the same cities! it's terrible...

At least the UK gets the big bands touring there. If you really want to pity a country, ask the fans stuck in South Africa how they feel about being ignored by the big bands they want to watch. We keep getting old, washed up acts at over priced tickets.

Wow Tom and Travis look interested....

@CJL - Why don't you fuck off and learn to spell for a start! Most of us do support British bands you wank-off, but just because we're British doesn't mean we aren't allowed to be fans of foreign groups or feel let-down when those foreign bands decide they're going to cancel our opportunity to see them live so they can tour their home country again.

P.S. Whilst I'm still slightly disappointed that Blink cancelled their UK tour for this, the Americans who go to this are in for a treat!! MCR & Blink on the same night, heaven!!

I'm not going to say that I hate living in the UK because we still get lots of great gigs.

It just makes me angry that a band, especially one as big as blink 182, would postpone their UK tour in order to tour America that just flat out sucks

@CJL

Did you just attempt to insult someone by using the term 'Unique roflfish'???
Oh dear....

BLINK !82...WHAT A BUNCH OF MONEY GRABBING, COCK ROTTEN, LYING BUNCH OF FAGS!!

well im saying FUCK YOU BLINK 182. Refund is on thecards i think. terrible how they treat the UK fanbase

@epicmoi

The use of Fags as an insult in that way and implying they aren't acceptable people due to their sexuality is well offensive and wrong to anybody no matter who they are and tbh people need to get away from writing shit like that. Actually its a fucking joke that people still do.
I saw blink at reading they were good fun and a blast of nostalgia and even if they have a new album that is whats always on the cards new album or not. P.S. they still suck live (but that's why they're great).

Wasn't going to go to the UK dates as they are a terrible live band with Tom's shocking live voice and this just proves that I made the right decision. Blink fans can put a good spin on it but they have stabbed fans in the back. Since this is such a joint tour with MCR and a band as accomplished as Rancid, they will not play much if any from a supposed new album that seems to be taking longer and longer to release. This will be a greatest hits set they apparently didn't want to do in order to compete with the other bands and keep people interested. UK fans have been fucked over well and truly by these wankers.

I think that a good form of protest towards the band would be for no one in the UK to buy their new album when it is released and everyone should download it ilegally instead, as it is reason the tour was cancelled.

WHO'S WITH ME?! :)

Rancid should be headlining!!!! Blink and MCR should be in support!!!!

poor show Rancid agreeing to support these twerps

Posted by craig | May 24, 2011 5:22 PM | Reply to this

what the hell are rancid supporting them douches for???
well even though i dont like blink its abit pointless postponing a uk a tour for a whole year just to do a us tour using "they need to finish their album" as a excuse.

Posted by lucy. | May 24, 2011 5:39 PM | Reply to this

So they can't tour the UK for a few weeks but when it comes to the USA they can do 40 dates? Somethings doesn't quite add up here!

FUCK THE FUCK OFF. Not only have they fucked Europe over, US get to see Rancid aswell. FUCKIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINGGGG GAY

What the hell are they doing? They cancelled the gig I was going to because it was in the UK and now they're doing a tour a week or two afterwards...

Thanks for appreciating your UK fans Blink, this is just rude.

@chillyourboots

so the fact that this has pissed every fan in the UK except yourself doesnt mean anything??

they can postpone a tour over here 'to complete the album', and instead they tour in the US. Never mind that people have paid for the tickets, booked trains and paid for hotels and lost money on these......

WOW REAL PUNK ROCK

Yeah bending over for the man and happy to take the mighty Yen as well.

Posted by Watson | May 24, 2011 7:40 PM | Reply to this

Major loss of respect for the band. How can they blow the UK off for a year, but can still manage to put up a 40 date US tour?
Thanks a lot Blink, totally makes me feel appreciated as a fan.

Posted by Kiwi | May 25, 2011 8:35 AM | Reply to this

Bad form really....but not surprising really considering how much cash they would have been offered for the tour..... lets face it, they aren't back together for the love of the band, they record their parts in different studios! How about Rancid come and play the UK instead please!!!

Posted by punkdkid | May 25, 2011 9:49 AM | Reply to this

I cannot believe Rancid are supporting. I'd kill to see those boys back in UK, First gig i ever went to and I was 10! Best night of my life, as for supporting those eedjits I dunno what Rancid are thinking

British music sucks, nothing like blink
I do like the band "The Streets" are they british?

Anyways I am so excited I just found out today that blink is releasing the new album then touring the USA!!!!

you brits are just gunna havta wait...
USA comes fist when it comes to blink

Posted by clayton | June 2, 2011 4:03 PM | Reply to this

The USA can fookin keep em, they're a load of shit anyway...go and see a proper band like Iron Maiden who NEVER let's their fans down!

I can't believe I actually liked them fuckin dick heads until yesterday

Posted by Abi | June 3, 2011 9:54 PM | Reply to this

Jeez everyone needs to calm down.
I'm pretty sure Blink know what they are doing, plus UK fans should be happy that they've rescheduled the tour, with your best interest in mind. You'd fucking hate it if you paid to see blink but didn't even hear any new songs -even though all their song are awesome but still
shut up and stop moaning
plus touring with MCR is like a once in a lifetime opportunity, unline touring int eh UK when they can kinda do it whenever, so i don't think they would have turned that down
especially with mcr being totally amazing~

Posted by Ellie | June 4, 2011 12:50 PM | Reply to this

I'm so mad right now. My mum bought me tickets - expensive tickets - to go see them in Manchester and even when they postponed the tour I was like "oh yeah, OK, I understand." Now, they've sunk to a new low. They don't give two shits about us - just about the bloody USA. That's all what celebs are obsessed about nowadays - America because it gets them MORE. MONEY. That's all that Blink want! I've lost all my faith in them!
