Mark Hoppus: "There is no +44 reunion"

Road cases at blink-182 rehearsals.

Edit: I read through some of the comments. Thanks for the excitement but there is no +44 reunion. Just stickers on cases at rehearsal. Changing the set up quite a bit for Musink. Not a greatest hits show. There will be lots of singles but also some fun and fast songs from the past. It's gonna be a good time!

There is a future for +44

Is there a future for + 44?
Yeah, there's definitely a future for + 44. We're obviously not working on anything right now. Blink is my number one priority, and my TV show on Fuse [Hoppus on Music], and my family. But I would love to make another record.

+44 on a break waiting for Travis

"Travis is home healing, so right now we're just totally on a break, waiting for him to heal up," Hoppus told MTV News backstage at the mtvU Woodie Awards in New York. "I've been writing a bunch of stuff and getting a lot of songs together. We'll just have to see what happens over the next few months."

+44's demos leaked?

On 2nd July, Craig has written a bulletin entitled "Demo Leaked" on his MySpace and now he explains that he wrote a long bulletin but the page don't load correctly.

+44's demo coming soon

i know that many of you are anxious to hear about what’s up in +44 world, and we are still in pre-production. although i have half a mind to post one of the demos up here one of these days. i wonder if the label would sue me if i did? can they do that? probably, right?

Impatience Is A Virtue

for everyone like me who has been wondering what’s going on with the +44’s, here’s the deal. this whole time we’ve been continuing to write and demo ideas on our own. the only thing is we’ve been waiting for the label to fund the recording, and this just came through. i understand everyone wondering what’s the deal, and believe me a lot has happened that i haven’t posted the minutia of. do you like how i ended that last sentence in a preposition? in any case, all is good. we’re just guys writing songs. but we’re gonna flip it this time around. now just for fun i’m going to really confuse the issue and go back to saying we’re recording an electronic album with me, travis, and carol. and we’re recording the album in brazil. but truthfully, thanks for the support and interest and know that we’re here working as always, and as always we’re creative people with a lot of ideas and energies. but nothing is closer to our hearts than recording our own music.

There Is No Show This Weekend

i saw something today that said that +44 is playing a show this weekend [NdR.: New +44 show]. i’m here to tell you that is not the case. we’re still writing the next record, and have no shows planned for a minute. so unless you see it on our site or here, chances are it’s not for real. all is good.

Lastly, a good friend of mine, Scarlett, is having a benefit this month, called SCARLETT FEVER.

I'm going to be auctioning a TON of signed +44 stuff for Scarlett, including one of Travis' cymbals, kick drum heads, a limited edition +44 7 inch, tour posters, tons of cool shit.
