More quotes by Travis Barker
And I played in jazz band as well during all three years in school.
Travis Barker
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.
Travis Barker
I listen to everything from jazz to reggae to heavy metal and I kind of combine everything to make something different
Travis Barker
But really, anytime, I play on a practice pad as much as I can.
Travis Barker
I think punk, pop-punk, and rock music is all meshed together and I think good music is good music.
Travis Barker
Playing my drums is therapy.
Travis Barker
We never worry about the big things, just the small things.

I'm super serious about that stuff. I mean, it's rare that I sit down at a drum set when I'm not touring, because we tour so much.
Travis Barker
If we play to first time Blink 182 listeners, it's good they are listening to us and not the Backstreet Boys. Old Fans or new fans, it's all the same to us.
Travis Barker
My chops are still up, even though I`m not still in high school.

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
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
Bill Stevenson of The Descendants is really good, too.
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.
Travis Barker
With rock music, it usually revolves around the band. You go in as a band and probably take about a year to record an album. But for a hip-hop song, you can create a track and an idea with verses and choruses in a day, and get three different people on it. It seems like you're able to do more with hip-hop.
Travis Barker
I like Steve Gadd, everything he did with Steely Dan. There's so many. I like everything.
Travis Barker
I looked Death right in the face.
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.
