More quotes by Travis Barker
My mom listened to the Beatles and Elvis, a lot of different types of music.
Travis Barker
I was told once if I kept breaking things on my legs, that I wasn't going to be able to walk soon, you know? I wanted to be a pro skateboarder, but it was too hard. I was trying, but it wasn't going to happen.

Travis Barker
Thank you for life, and all the little ups and downs that make it worth living.
Travis Barker
I run every day now. I never ran before.
Travis Barker
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 tattooed my body so I couldn't fall back on anything. I purposely did that so I couldn't get a normal job and live a normal life. I did it so I had to play music.
Travis Barker
But really, anytime, I play on a practice pad as much as I can.
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.
