Travis Barker had to fly back to the US at short notice due to a family emergency. This came just hours after the Blink-182 rocker took a moment of reflection for prayer while on tour in Europe with the punk band.
The musician had posted Instagram photos of their tour bus earlier in the afternoon, as well as a snap outside a prayer room with a sign saying ‘all welcome’. He also shared photos of a stained glass window and a banner which read ‘together we pray’.
Fans rushed to send Travis well wishes on social media, with many hoping that he and his family would be okay. Blink-182 then released a statement saying that due to the ‘urgent family matter’, the Glasgow, Belfast, and Dublin shows had to be postponed. They promised to provide more information about Travis’ return to Europe and rescheduled dates as soon as possible.
The band had been on a break in July, before the European leg of their tour which was due to end in October before returning to the US and then Australia in February 2024. In one of their earlier shows, Travis’ wife Kourtney had announced her pregnancy while watching her husband perform from the audience.
We hope that Travis and his family are doing well and that the situation will be resolved soon.
