Blink-182's Mark Hoppus says Travis Barker's tragic crash. has brought them back together.

"We're just reconnecting as friends after four years of not talking," he says on his blog. "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."

Since Blink-182's split, Barker and Hoppus formed +44, while Tom DeLonge fronted Angels & Airwaves.

On Sunday's TRL finale, Barker said, "I'm already playing my drums again, and I'm already back in the studio."

Getting behind the drum set again "was like riding a bike," Barker told Damien Fahey. "It was really exciting to know I still have my chops. It still felt good. I still can make it around the kit. Everything felt right, so I'm thankful to be able to play."

1:49 I feel sorry for any man that dates you and dumps your A$$ you sound LOCO. I bet your the type of girl that would never let her boyfriend have a guys night.

Oh and lets not forget she is his EX WIFE. Just because she was there for him after the crash means she cares about him. they loved each other and have kids together. Why on earth does that mean they should get back together? It didn't work the first 3 times.

live and let live.

WOW 1:49 sounds like a man hater!

I hope they put Blink 182 back together!

Seriously, who cares if he makes it work with his ex wife? I think it is great that his friends came to the realization that life is precious and anyone can die at anytime. Let the past be the past.

did you ever really read the reports, it was a he said/she said thing from the beginning. her saying she was with him daily, him saying after he got into the rehabilitation home she ditched out....How about letting him make his own decision on who he mends his fences with.

well well well this is typical of men... when his sometimes ex-wife rushed to his side his dissed her and said she didn't care... but ohhh he can jump right into mending his friendships with guys....

ugh

Goes to show you how trivial things really are when you face the prospect of losing that person in your life for reasons beyond your control. Thats why if anything I've learned over time is that you have to pick and choose your arguments. Live like tomorrow is your last day and have no regrets.
