Blink-182, Bad Religion Packaged For The Road

Pop-punk band Blink-182 will make rounds on the amphitheater circuit this spring and summer, topping a bill that also includes Bad Religion and Fenix*TX. The tour is scheduled to open on May 11 near San Diego, where the band began.

Tickets go on sale in most markets on Friday and Saturday (3/10-11).

Blink-182's scatologically-obsessed punk first found a large audience with the 1997 album "Dude Ranch," which went gold. The band's current release, "Enema of the State," is a smash hit with more than 3 million copies sold.

"Adam's Song," the third video from "Enema of the State," debuted earlier this week on MTV's TRL.

Bad Religion--a long-established punk act with a scholarly lyrical style that is the polar opposite of Blink's--postponed a planned February/March mini-tour in order to take a slot on the bill. The band will release a new album, "Bad Religion: The New America," on May 9.

Houston-based bubblegum-punkers Fenix*TX, who are Blink's labelmates at MCA Records, were known as River Fenix until last year.
