Travis Barker -- The Show Must Go On

Posted Aug 30th 2009 10:06AM by TMZ Staff

He said it wouldn't be easy -- but Travis Barker took the stage last night just one day after the passing of his good friend DJ AM.

Barker performed at the Comcast Theater in Hartford, CT. He tweeted earlier in the day, "Don't know how i am gonna play 2night but i am for AM."

Tough Break for Travis Barker

Posted Oct 5th 2006 12:08PM by TMZ Staff

Barker breaks his arm It's been a tough week for Travis Barker. First his soon-to-be ex-wife and his current, er, "friend" Paris Hilton got into a little tussle at a club. Now he's broken his arm. Damn!

According to his publicist, Travis Barker broke his arm while shooting a video for his band +44's song "When Your Heart Stops Beating." A source close to Barker tells TMZ that he actually broke his arm drumming. Wow.

Doctors have ordered the former blink-182er to lay off the heavy lifting -- and drumming -- for at least 8 weeks.

UPDATE: Travis Barker has posted the following message on his MySpace account: "I had every test possible to see what was going on in my arm. The MRI/X-Ray showed I'd been playing with a broken arm for 3 weeks and or possible tumor in my arm ... I've been told to eat meat and change my diet (I've been a vegetarian for 16 years) cause it's making my bones weak. I never thought I'd break a bone from playing my drums too hard/too long."
