Hang on: Is a blink-182 reconciliation in the works?

Blink-182 fans were heartbroken when tensions within the band saw guitarist Tom DeLonge leave in 2015. While he was off working with Angels and Airwaves and his alien-hunting projects, he was replaced by Matt Skiba. The schism appeared to be permanent.

But if we’ve learned one thing about music, it’s that you can never say never. Take a look at these tweets from both Tom and Mark Hoppus.

One time @markhoppus and I moved all our cars to the driveway of his next-door neighbors house, so our friend that got off work at midnight would pull up and run into the wrong house to meet us to go skateboarding. We hid outside in the bushes and watched. It was really funny.

What could this mean? A fan theory is that a reconciliation is in the works. We’ve heard such things before, but given that Tom and drummer Travis Barker have indicated they’re working together on a new Box Car Racer project (that band’s 20th anniversary is coming up), maybe the rift isn’t insurmountable.
