California natives Blink-182, consisting of guitarist/vocalist Tom Delonge, bassist/vocalist Mark Hoppus and drummer Travis Barker have been hugely successful in Punk/Rock music since their 1997 album “Dude Ranch” went platinum. They soon started rolling out the hits with songs “All The Small Things,” “What’s My Age Again” and “Adam’s Song” all coming off 1999’s chart topping album Enema of the State. The album sold 4 million copies. More hit records followed and even a brief hiatus occurred in the last decade, but the rockers have since reunited to record and tour and remain as strong as ever.

“This will be the biggest and baddest show that A Day To Remember has ever done, remarked lead singer Jeremy McKinnon. “I’m excited to see the awesome bands we’re touring with and am stoked on pulling off this show we’re gonna do!”
The band’s last album What Separates Me From You was a major breakthrough for A Day To Remember. Upon its release the album debuted at #11 on the Billboard Top 200 Albums chart and has now sold over 300,000 units. A Day To Remember’s entire catalog is now well over a million units combined.
Earlier this year, the band posted a brand new track “Violence (Enough Is Enough)” on their website to rave reviews from their loyal and die-hard fans.
Since their formation in 2003, Ocala, Florida’s A Day To Remember have grown from a small band with a dedicated local fan-base into a worldwide phenomenon, gaining the respect and adoration from their peers as much as their fans. This hasn’t been an overnight success story – A Day To Remember have worked hard to win over every fan they’ve made. Over the course of four albums, the band has sold out entire continental tours, landed two Top 25 Billboard debuts and topped the Billboard Indie Albums Chart. This upcoming fall tour will be the biggest venues the band have played in the U.S. to date.
