Blink-182: 'We are reconnecting'

Mark Hoppus has hinted at a possible reunion for American pop-punk trio Blink-182.

The bassist said the group had recently been "reconnecting" following drummer Travis Barker's near-fatal plane crash and the death of their regular producer Jerry Finn.

"We're just reconnecting as friends after four years of not talking," he wrote 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."

Blink-182 recorded five studio albums between 1992 and 2005 and scored hits with 'All The Small Things', 'I Miss You' and 'The Rock Show'.

Following their split, Hoppus and Barker collaborated in the band +44, while guitarist Tom Delonge formed Angels & Airwaves.
