CHICAGO — In September 2005, Tom DeLonge, known as the lip­ring-wearing singer-guitarist from Blink-182, announced that his new band, Angels & Airwaves, was "preparing the greatest rock 'n' roll revolution for this generation." He said it would be the best album "anybody has heard in 20 years."

On Saturday afternoon, the 34-year-old rocker explained his infamous comments backstage at the Aragon Ballroom hours before an Angels & Airwaves (aka AVA) show.

"I was on Vicodin," DeLonge said, laughing. "Lots of Vicodin."

From the U.S. Department of State:
Edward Kennedy ("Duke") Ellington (April 29, 1899 – May 24, 1974)< an American composer, pianist, and bandleader. is often considered the most important composer in the history of jazz, with an estimated two thousand compositions, arrangements, and collaborations to his credit.

Early in the century, jazz bands became increasingly popular accompaniments for a new, faster style of social dancing. Ellington's career mirrored, and greatly influenced, the rise of the jazz band. In particular, his unique status owed itself to his combined talents of orchestration and bandleading.
