Blink 182 & My Chemical Romance to hit the road together

Guitarist and singer Tom Delonge told Spin.com:

"We have a really great mix of our talents, and what I'm really excited about is how these songs are built for such massive venues."

"I don't want to spit out song titles, but the new stuff builds a lot more. The songs have intros, crescendos, and things that lend themselves to great lighting and loud volume. It's not orthodox punk at all."

Although great news for the bands American fans we would expect their European following may be just a little angry at the news, considering the their decision to postpone their entire UK and Ireland tour earlier this year along with their planned appearances at the T In the Park and Oxygen Festivals, citing a lack of new material as the reason to re-schedule.

Still, the American tour will kick off on the 8th August at PNC Bank Arts Centre in Holmdel NJ before wrapping up on the 15th October at Cricket Wireless Amphitheatre in San Deiego and will feature support slots from Rancid, Manchester Orchestra and Matt and Kim.
