I love tour, but I don't like traveling at night or driving long hours. But I love touring. If my kids could be out there full time, I'd probably never go home.

All I wanted to do was ride skateboards - I wanted to be a professional skateboarder. But I had this problem. I kept breaking half of my body skateboarding.
Travis Barker
Usually, if I'm coming to Europe, I'm on a boat for seven days, so I spend the seven days doing a bunch of things. I'll do cardio for an hour or an hour-and-a-half and weights, just light weights.

I'm a freak, everything has to be totally flat when I play. Ed Will, my jazz teacher, set up everything completely flat, and then you'd tilt your snare drum away from you, so I do that too. So my snare tilts away from me.
Travis Barker
I was a kid, and I wasn't even sure if I wanted to play the drums, you know? All I wanted to do was skateboard, but I was still learning and taking it in, so it was good.
Travis Barker
And I was in another band called Flash In The Pan, which was soca, Latin music, down in Laguna Beach.
Travis Barker
I like Steve Gadd, everything he did with Steely Dan. There's so many. I like everything.
Travis Barker
Once in a while, I'll slip and get off my vegan diet and have egg whites in the morning, that's a good source of protein while I'm out on the road. If I can feel my body starting to tire, those are good to keep you healthy.
Travis Barker
I want to beat the world record for the number of beats per second on a drum pad.
Travis Barker
But really, anytime, I play on a practice pad as much as I can.
Travis Barker
I was in a band called Hooker for a while.
Travis Barker
I run every day now. I never ran before.
