Blink-182 member Tom DeLonge bowed out of playing One More Time (OMT) during their recent Milwaukee concert. It happened after the band played ‘Dammit.’
Tom DeLonge was struggling
One fan revealed that the band called an audible mid-show and scrapped ‘Always’ which shows how bad Tom was struggling. Another fan confirmed Tom was clearly sick with his voice but still managed to put on a great show.
Blink-182 recently canceled their concerts in Kansas City and St. Louis “due to illness.” The band announced the news on social media. Though they didn’t confirm who specifically was affected, it seems that it is Tom DeLonge.
“Unfortunately, due to illness we are unable to make it to Kansas City and St. Louis,” the band wrote on X, confirming that refunds would be issued automatically to ticket holders who purchased through Ticketmaster. “We are so sorry and hope to see you next time,” they added.
Blink-182 is currently on a U.S. tour, which is now set to continue on Aug. 12 in Detroit at Little Caesars Arena. The group performed at Lollapalooza in Chicago last weekend and will head overseas later this month to headline Reading & Leeds festival in the U.K. Blink-182 have uploaded clips of four new songs from the One More Time deluxe edition.
A version of Blink-182’s ‘One More Time’ recently surfaced on social media in which the emotional vocals of Tom DeLonge can be heard without Mark Hoppus’ backing vocals. The band released “One More Time” album in October last year and it was the touching reunion of the iconic trio – Mark Hoppus, Tom DeLonge, and Travis Barker.
The album came out after several years of solo projects and multiple changes in the lineup. The band hit the road in June with their “One More Time Tour they had an exciting roster of opening acts for the dates.
