More quotes by Travis Barker
But really, anytime, I play on a practice pad as much as I can.
Travis Barker
My mom listened to the Beatles and Elvis, a lot of different types of music.
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
My chops are still up, even though I`m not still in high school.
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 want to keep pushing the limits for drummers and expressing myself.
Travis Barker
On tour, you never have a home, you don`t get used to anything, and you`re always super busy.
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
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
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
A lot of people think that punk rock musicians don't know what they're doing.
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 was playing with the Aquabats, and then I quit to join a band called Suicide Machine in Detroit.
Travis Barker
I`ve always liked Dennis Chambers, he`s real flashy.
Travis Barker
I like Steve Gadd, everything he did with Steely Dan. There's so many. I like everything.
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 want to beat the world record for the number of beats per second on a drum pad.
Travis Barker
Thank you for life, and all the little ups and downs that make it worth living.
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 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
