added 10 May 2012 at 13.28

The band have had to call off all their May tour dates after Travis Barker had his tonsils removed....

The drummer "required an urgent tonsillectomy with a recovery period expected to extend beyond the scheduled tour dates" according to the band's website.

Blink 182 have apologised to fans for cancelling the shows - which will not be rescheduled.

The affected gigs are all in America or Canada - the band hit our shores this summer for a series of arena dates.
