Blink-182 heard you, Chicago. The '90s pop-punk band just added a second Chicago concert date to its world tour "due to incredible fan demand."
In addition to Blink-182's May 6, 2023, date at the United Center, Mark Hoppus, Tom DeLonge and Travis Barker will also perform on May 7, 2023.

The world tour, kicked off in March and continuing through February 2024, marks the reunion of the three musicians for the first time in nearly a decade.
The first shows will take place in Mexico and South America before the band comes to the U.S. in May, where Chicago will be among their first stops. Other shows in the Midwest include Saint Paul, Minnesota, and Detroit, Michigan.
News of the tour comes as the band prepares to drop their new single "Edging" on Friday. The music marks the first time Hoppus, DeLonge and Barker have been in the studio together in nearly 10 years.
"While ‘blink-182’ have already racked up more than their fair share of platinum records and blockbuster singles, they are looking forward to their 10th studio album," the tour release states. "With Delonge back after nearly a decade fans can expect that electric on stage magic that the trio has delivered over the years. With their new album due in 2023, ‘blink-182’ is stoked to be facing their future together."
Tickets are set to go on sale at 10 a.m. on Oct. 17. Details here.
