Travis Barker has and will always be my all-time favorite drummer. The swag with which he plays and the creative beats he comes up with are truly inspiring.

Even some blink-182 songs started with his drum beats, and the riffs and lyrics were crafted after the fact.

His beats were so creative that they inspired blink songs.

I remember driving down the road, screaming blink-182 songs from ‘Take Off Your Pants and Jacket,’ at innocent bystanders, while driving my car. Ah, the good old days.

Thanks, Travis, for inspiring drummers everywhere and for making my high school days awesome.

I hope you see this one day and know how much you inspired me, making my high school days awesome. #blink182 #travisbarker #drummer
