Overview
- Performing his Fahrenheit‑182 storytelling show at the Sydney Opera House on March 21, Hoppus told the audience that Violent Soho are getting back together.
- He brought out frontman Luke Boerdam and guitarist James Tidswell for an acoustic rendition of blink‑182’s Dammit, marking their first shared stage appearance since the band’s September 10, 2022 farewell show in Brisbane.
- Neither Boerdam nor Tidswell addressed the audience about reunion plans, and the band has issued no official statement confirming a return.
- Earlier in the week, Violent Soho announced a limited‑edition vinyl reissue of their 2016 No. 1 album WACO and shared a statement reflecting on the record’s impact and studio memories.
- Boerdam later posted a note from Hoppus reading “thanks for getting the band back together 2026” and wrote that the Opera House moment was only one song, adding that he had missed performing.
