Blink 182 Drummer Back Recording After Plane Crash

17 November 2008

Travis Barker is back making music after surviving a plane crash which killed four people...

The former Blink 182 drummer and his musical partner, DJ AM, managed to survive the crash, though Barker's assistant, Chris Baker, and bodyguard, Charles Still, were among those killed.

In his first TV appearence since the incident, Barker was thankful to fans for their support.

He told MTV: "I'm already playing my drums again, and I'm already back in the studio. It was like riding a bike. It was really exciting to know I still have my chops. It still felt good. I still can make it around the kit. Everything felt right, so I'm thankful to be able to play."

As previously reported, Barker set up a memorial fund through his clothing company, Famous Stars and Straps, for those who died.
