Ouch! A Month Before Blink -182 Reunion Tour With Tom DeLonge, Travis Braker's Finger Sprained And Torn Ligament
JAKARTA - About a month before Blink-182's reunion tour with Tom DeLonge, drummer Travis Barker suffered an injury during rehearsals.
Barker first disclosed his injury via Twitter on Tuesday, February 7.
"I was playing the drums at rehearsals yesterday and I smashed my finger so hard I dislocated it and tore the ligaments," Barker tweeted.
The drummer did not elaborate on how the injury would affect him, but it would at least hurt Barker to continue drumming ahead of the tour.
After posting about his injury, Barker received a number of words of encouragement including one from Avenged Sevenfold frontman M. Shadows.
"Damn - nothing worse than a lingering injury on tour," said Shadows, adding, "Get better soon" with a fist emoji.
Blink-182 reunion tour will kick off on March 11 in Tijuana, Mexico.
