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.

More quotes by Travis Barker
I want to keep pushing the limits for drummers and expressing myself.
Travis Barker
I can play punk rock, and I love playing punk rock, but I was into every other style of music before I played punk rock.
Travis Barker
But really, anytime, I play on a practice pad as much as I can.
Travis Barker
I looked Death right in the face.
Travis Barker
When I look at music, everything is blurred, and I like it that way. I grew up like that, hanging out with different types of people who listened to so many different types of music. I never wanted to be part of any one clique. I loved it all.
Travis Barker
And I played in jazz band as well during all three years in school.
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
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
Enema of the State song is kind of like a tattoo, like a moment in time, but it aged well. It's not like one that you're looking at like, Aw, God, I gotta get that s**t removed. It's something we're proud of.
Travis Barker
Take care of your colon and your colon will take care of you.
Travis Barker
Bill Stevenson of The Descendants is really good, too.
Travis Barker
Oh, I was super serious about practicing and rudiments, and still am. I still have all my books.
Travis Barker
I listened a little to punk when I was younger, but it was straight edge punk. It was nothing like what is going on now, like poppy punk.
Travis Barker
I`ve always liked Dennis Chambers, he`s real flashy.
Travis Barker
Thank you for life, and all the little ups and downs that make it worth living.
Travis Barker
A lot of people think that punk rock musicians don't know what they're doing.
Travis Barker
I need protein from food rather than just protein supplements. I changed my diet.
Travis Barker
I was in a band called Hooker for a while.
Travis Barker
Anything that has to do with rock seems to be on the decline. There's not a lot of rock stations or MTV anymore, you just go on Youtube.
Travis Barker
My chops are still up, even though I`m not still in high school.
