As one unified force of fun, eternal youth, and most of all – close friends,” he continued.Last night (April 29) Travis Barker took to Twitter to tell fans the “album will be finished before we leave on tour.”Album will be finished before we leave on tour— Travis Barker (@travisbarker) April 29, 2023Blink-182 were originally due to kick off their world tour in March with a tour of South America but those dates were postponed to 2024 due to Barker injuring himself while drumming. Instead, the pop-punk trio made their live return with a last-minute set at weekend one of Coachella Festival.
