Tom DeLonge is no longer part of Blink-182—or at least that’s what reports going around the Internet Monday afternoon claimed. But, according to him, that’s not true. “I never quit the band,” DeLonge said in a statement emailed to EW by his representative. “Actually, I was on the phone discussing a possible Blink-182 event in New York City when I heard the ‘news,’” he said.
