Tom DeLonge: "I Never Quit Blink-182"

Despite earlier reports, Blink-182's Tom DeLonge has announced that he has not left the band.

"I never quit the band. I actually was on a phone call about a blink 182 event for New York City at the time all these weird press releases started coming in," the guitarist said in a statement just released via his official Twitter and Facebook account.

UPDATE: (2.41pm PST) - Tom DeLonge's publicist has sent out the following statement:

“I never quit the band. Actually, I was on the phone discussing a possible Blink-182 event in New York City when I heard the ‘news.’ The ONLY truth here is that I have commitments that limit my availability this year. I love Blink-182 and I’m not leaving.”

Earlier today, the band released a statement that they received an e-mail from Tom's manager explaining that "he didn’t want to participate in any Blink-182 projects indefinitely."
