Devastating news coming from the Dead Kennedys camp today, as the iconic California punk band has announced the passing of drummer D.H. Peligro. According to a statement released on their Facebook page, Peligro passed away in his Los Angeles home on October 28th after he sustained a head injury in an accidental fall.
Peligro, otherwise known as Darren Henley, had been a member of the Dead Kennedys since 1981, and played on three studio albums: Plastic Surgery Disasters, Frankenchrist, and Bedtime for Democracy. He also had a brief stint in the Red Hot Chili Peppers, and co-wrote a few tracks that appear on their highly-influential 1989 album Mother’s Milk. The legendary drummer was 63 years young at the time of his passing.
Dying Scene’s condolences go out to the Dead Kennedys and D.H. Peligro’s family. We encourage you to blast some DKs in his honor.

Happy Thursday, comrades!

Blink-182 recently announced their reunion with frontman and founding member Tom DeLonge. They’ve recorded a new album, and will be embarking on a world tour next year. But things are not all sunshine and roses in Blink-182 land.
Ticketmaster is starting to launch ticket presales for the band’s world tour, and the monolithic event ticketing empire is taking full advantage of the hype surrounding DeLonge’s return. For those who don’t know, Ticketmaster has a little thing they call “dynamic ticket pricing”. Basically what that means is the list price of event tickets can fluctuate quite rapidly based on the current demand for those tickets. Supply and demand, baby!
In situations like this one – Blink-182 announcing a world tour the same day they end their seven year breakup with Tom DeLonge – the demand, and in turn the fluctuations in prices for tickets can be quite drastic. Fans hoping to attend the tour have taken to social media to voice their outrage with this dynamic pricing model. Many claim the price for tickets they selected jumped significantly even as they added them to their cart. Fans are paying anywhere from a few hundred dollars to over $1,000 for tickets to see Blink-182. And bear in mind folks, these are not resale prices. These are tickets being sold by Ticketmaster.
@Ticketmaster are criminals. Dynamic pricing is bullshit. $2000 for 2 Blink-182 tickets in Toronto in the 100s level. Absolutely Criminal. Thank you for taking advantage of people. Much appreciated.
With all that said, I do not think artists like Blink-182 should be absolved of any guilt in this dynamic pricing model. After all, they directly benefit from these sky high ticket prices, and according to Inside Hook, artists can opt out of dynamic pricing altogether. But it seems that, for some, the incentive is too great. And being able to hide behind the big bad boogeyman known as Ticketmaster certainly makes it easier to protect your brand while exploiting your eager fans’ FOMO. That’s capitalism, folks! Enjoy the Blink-182 show.

We’ve got another super fun video to share with you today, and it’s from some of our favorites…The Venomous Pinks! The kick-ass clip is for the track “Cross My Heart and Hope To Die,” and finds the band performing in a roller derby rink while the ass-kickers from Arizona Derby Dames perform their own version of ‘slam dancing’ to the music on the bank track.

You forgot to mention the Blink 182 sucks with or without Tom.
