Lil Wayne might not be enthusiastic about his tour with Blink-182, but his fans and those of the pop-punk group might have more in common than he thinks. It was a surprise to many when Weezy was announced as the opener for Blink-182’s Enema of the State tour.

Tedeschi Trucks Band returns to South Florida with its Wheels of Soul Tour at Boca Raton’s Mizner Park Amphitheater on Saturday, June 29.
