Stop the presses

The lead item in today's Coming Distractions" column lists an upcoming date for the (+44) show at the Boardwalk on Oct. 21. But that's all changed with a press release that was sent out this morning. The band, featuring Travis Barker and Mark Hoppus of blink 182, has rescheduled its tour. Barker's arm is broken, and instead of doing the legend-of-the-one-armed-drummer deal, the (+44) tour will now start on Nov. 8. No word on the date of the Boardwalk make-up show, but the press release says that new dates should be announced in the next couple of days.
