Blink-182 always know how to make a statement, and fans can never get enough of their pop punk music.
A Blink-182 fan on Reddit shared some experiences from a meet and greet with the band, including a Q&A with Travis Barker. Travis wore new Vans shoes he designed for the occasion. Barker is working on “Can A Drummer Get Some? 2” and plans to release it with his Vans shoes.
Travis gave advice to a young drummer, telling him to play with many different musicians. He shared his own story of looking for people to play with, which helped him learn different styles. Barker said his passion for drumming comes from his love for it, not from wanting to be famous. He still learns something new every time he plays.
When asked about performing +44 and Box Car Racer songs, Travis said he loves playing those, even if it’s just for a short time. If he could play full songs, he would choose that over truncated versions.
The fan also mentioned that Travis talked about the “One More Time Deluxe” edition, saying it has seven new tracks. The fan was obviously very excited about the fact that they will get to hear seven new songs, which is a big deal for good reason. The tracklist is as follows:

Travis was asked about his favorite stadiums. He said he loves playing everywhere because the fans make each place special. He mentioned SoFi Stadium as a great venue, and said he’d love to tour in Asia.
Travis said all the opening bands have been great. He mentioned JXDN as one of the acts they personally picked because they like them.
Travis loves playing Connect 4. He plays with custom boards and pieces. Only four people have beaten him on the tour so far, with a fifth win in Columbus. He likes the game because it’s quick and often plays against MGK, with both of them winning often.
