Mark Hoppus recently sat down with Las Vegas Magazine about blink-182‘s upcoming residency. There was also some talks about a 20th anniversary tour of Enema of the State. 

Next year will be 20 years of Enema of the State, so it’s definitely something we’ve talked about and is on the horizon. I don’t know that we’ll do a whole album for the residency in Vegas, but it’s definitely something that we plan to do in the future.

Gibson Files for Bankruptcy

Gibson, one of the most noted names in musical instruments, has filed for bankruptcy. NPR reports:

The petition, filed on Tuesday, notes that the company currently has up to $500 million in debt and will focus its operations on its musical instruments business, “unburdened by the challenges experienced by [the company’s] separate, primarily non-U.S., consumer electronics business.” That business includes the brands KRK, Cerwin Vega and Stanton, whose lines include studio monitors, headphones and turntables.
