According to Consequence, Blink-182 launched the North American leg of their “One More Time Tour” on Thursday night at the Kia Center in Orlando, Florida, delighting fans with a 26-song set that spanned their greatest hits, rarities, tracks from side-projects Box Car Racer and +44, and, in a surprise to the crowd, the premiere of a brand new song titled “Can’t Go Back.”

This tour marks Blink-182’s second outing since reuniting with Tom DeLonge last year and supports their latest album, ONE MORE TIME…. DeLonge is back in action after recently suffering from heat stroke at Blink-182 stop in Paraguay.

Unlike their previous reunion tour, this go around features new production elements, including a 360-degree stage set-up that offers a unique viewing experience for fans in all arena seating.

The concert opened with performances from jxdn and Pierce the Veil, setting the stage for Blink-182 to kick off with their tried and true set opener “Feeling This.” The reunited trio, composed of Mark Hoppus, Travis Barker, and Tom DeLonge, powered through fan-favorite tracks such as “The Rock Show,” “Man Overboard,” and ONE MORE TIME…‘s “DANCE WITH ME.” The band also played “Obvious” from their 2003 self-titled album for the first time since 2018 and the first time with DeLonge in the lineup since 2013.

In a nod to their diverse discography, Blink-182 included “Bored to Death,” representing the band’s Matt Skiba era from the mid-2010s, and “Up All Night” from their 2011 album Neighborhoods. They also revived “M+Ms” from Cheshire Cat for the first time since 2016 before debuting their new track “Can’t Go Back.” The band continued to surprise fans with partial performances of +44’s “When Your Heart Stops Beating” and Box Car Racer’s “There Is,” marking the first time songs from these side projects were included in a Blink-182 set.

The night concluded with a string of their biggest hits: “What’s My Age Again?,” “First Date,” “All the Small Things,” “Dammit,” and their recent chart-topper “One More Time.” The comprehensive setlist showcased Blink-182’s enduring appeal and their willingness to blend nostalgia with fresh material.

Blink-182’s “One More Time Tour” continues this weekend in Miami and will run through the summer, with stops in Texas, California, New York, and more. The band is also slated to headline several major festivals, including Lollapalooza in Chicago and Austin City Limits.
