Five songs into his set, Ocean took a breather and addressed the audience.

“It’s been so long, but I have missed you,” Ocean told the crowd before hinting a new album might come soon.

“I wanna talk about why I’m here, ‘cos it’s not because of a new album – not that there’s not a new album – but there’s not right now,” he added.

Ocean went on to say that he decided to make an appearance at the festival since he enjoyed coming to Coachella with his late brother as a visitor.

“We were just dancing in that tent to that music, and I know he would have been so excited to be here with all of us, and I wanted to say thank you for all the support and the love all the years and the time,” he shared.

Ocean’s most recent studio album was 2016’s Blonde. The record was met with widespread acclaim, topping the US Billboard 200 and going No. 1 in several other countries. Since then, Ocean has released a number of singles, with the latest one, “Cayendo,” coming in 2020.

Coachella’s official social media team made a sneaky announcement of Blink-182’s appearance on Thursday by simply sharing the festival’s schedule and writing “Take off your pants and jacket” in the caption. This is, of course, the name of the band’s seminal 2001 studio album.

By going through the schedule, you can spot Blink-182 being slotted to play the 6:30 pm show on Friday (April 14) at Sahara Tent.

The band’s frontman Tom DeLonge later confirmed the news via Twitter.

Blink-182 reunited its founding lineup of DeLonge, Mark Hoppus, and Travis Baker, back in September while announcing a world tour. The trio last played together in 2014 before DeLonge opted to quit the group in early 2015. Hoppus and Baker later recruited Alkaline Trio frontman Matt Skiba as his replacement and recorded two albums, 2016’s California and 2019’s Nine.

The band initially planned to start its reunion tour in March, but it had to be postponed after Baker ended up suffering an injury during rehearsals. They are now set to kick off the trip in May with a show in St. Paul, Minneapolis.
