Blink-182 have canceled their fall tour due to drummer Travis Barker’s medical issues. In a statement issued on Twitter, the band wrote, “Trav’s medical team anticipated that he would be well enough by fall to tour but after recent checkups they were not able to clear him in time for the scheduled run of dates.” Find the full statement below.
“Unfortunately the risks associated with drumming are still too great,” Barker himself wrote in a portion of the statement. “I am doing everything I need to do so I can get back on the road as soon as possible. I want to thank my fans, family, friends and bandmates for all the love and support.” The cancelled dates include a headlining set at this year’s Riot Fest; Weezer, Taking Back Sunday, and Run the Jewels have been announced as replacement acts.
