The One More Time... Tour was a concert tour by American rock band Blink-182.[1] As opposed to the band's extensive World Tour 2023/2024, this domestic tour will be in support of the band's ninth studio album, One More Time... (2023). The band will play thirty shows across North America in mid-2024, at stadiums and arenas, alongside main support from Pierce the Veil,[2] as well as Astronoid, Drain, jxdn, Landon Barker, Hot Milk, Live Without, EKKSTACY, and Alexisonfire on select dates.[3] The tour will also included festival stops at Lollapalooza, Austin City Limits and Ocean City Calling.

Reception

edit

Osvaldo Espino of the Miami New Times called the trio "one of the most in-demand live acts" of 2024, and wrote that "It felt like a victory lap for a group that has gone through so much together [...] Simply put, Blink-182 has never sounded better."[5] Their sold-out hometown at Petco Park in San Diego was well-received by George Varga from the San Diego Union-Tribune: "Very few veteran bands these days dare to include so many songs from their newest album, let alone a pop-punk band bringing its pyrotechnics-punctuated stadium show to a finish with a contemplative ballad about the frailty of life."[6]

The Arizona Republic's Ed Masley called the trio "older, wiser, more reflective" in person.[7] Kevin Slane from Boston.com said the three "turn[ed] the home of the Red Sox into a raucous, fireworks-filled sing-along."[8] Their Lollapalooza set was well-received;[9] "their set captured what keeps Blink-182 popular more than 30 years on," wrote Nina Cocoran of Rolling Stone.[10] Gabriel Saulog from Billboard concurred: "With the awe-struck nature of the crowd, the group has ultimately proven that they’ve still got it — and are unlikely to lose their magnanimous spark."[11] A negative review from a student paper, critiquing the gig as "cringe-worthy and repulsive,"[12] went viral,[13] prompting DeLonge to mock it: "I love this band," he wrote.[14] Selena Fragassi from the Chicago Sun-Times offered a rebuttal:

Not that anyone took offense — to any of it. If you don’t have fun at a Blink-182 show, then you’re just doing it wrong. The trio has had a whole lifeline built around youthful nostalgia and just plain irreverence for anything serious. We have enough of that to deal with in our daily lives anyway, so why not take 90 minutes off?[15]
