Blink-182 Reunion?

As you all probably know, blink-182 went on an "indefinate hiatus" back in 2005; and since then, there has been almost no contact between Angels & Airwaves' Tom DeLonge and +44's Mark Hoppus and Travis Barker.

Also, you all probably heard about the plane crash back on September 20, 2008 that killed four people, leaving only Travis Barker and DJ AM alive. Travis Barker was severely burned.

Only two months after the plane crash, Mark Hoppus wrote on his blog (HiMyNameIsMark) saying that Travis and himself were finally talking with Tom DeLonge again. Hoppus wrote"in the midst of everything else that has happened lately, tom, travis, and i have all spoken together. first through a number of phone calls, and then a couple of weeks ago we all hung out for a few hours. they've all been great, very positive conversations. we're just reconnecting as friends after four years of not talking. it's a good thing. obviously the first question for a lot of people will be "does this mean a blink-182 reunion?" the answer is none of us know. we haven't talked about it at all. right now it's just good for the three of us to see one another, reconnect, and let the past be the past. the events of the past two months supersede everything that happened before. life is too short."

Obviously, this short comment spurred a huge reaction from all of blink-182's fans and called for something more. Last week, in an interview with MTV, Hoppus discussed where he and Barker are headed in their music careers. According to Hoppus, the band +44 is done and he is going on to make a solo album. Travis Barker is currently working on a solo album. And blink-182 is getting closer to reuniting.

On the other side of things, Tom DeLonge began recording with Angels & Airwaves for their third studio album.
