Blink 182 held a kick off party at the Rainbow Bar & Grill to announce they will be headlining the 2011 Honda Civic Tour with My Chemical Romance.
“It’s great to be going back out on the Honda Civic Tour,” Blink 182′s Mark Hoppus released in a statement, “We had a blast kicking off the tour ten years ago, and this summer we’ll be taking it to the next level with our friends in My Chemical Romance.” Indeed! Blink 182 tore it up on the very first Honda Civic Tour 10 years ago in 2001.
Following their stellar performance as part of the Red Bull Studios Sessions, Manchester Orchestra’s captain Andy Hull sat down with ChinaShopMag to discuss the band’s complex new album Simple Math and the joys of peaches. Andy Hull loves peaches so much that if you’re a fan of the band, he would greatly appreciate peaches on the road, or anything peach flavored or shaped. He loves them, so much, and would not stop talking about them (readers get the edited version of his ode to peaches here).
A young, complex man in a simple world, or maybe the other way around, Hull might say “weird” when he means “unconventional,” and “crazy” when he means “genius.” Either way, upon the release of Simple Math, the unconventionally talented genius known as Andy Hull will soon confirm the sweet smell of success is just peachy.
Be the first to hear Manchester Orchestra’s new song, “April Fool” on Red Bull’s Facebook page.
The band will follow up the song’s worldwide debut with a unique live performance and interview from Red Bull Studio in Los Angeles this Friday (4/1/11) at 5pm EST/2pm PST.
