Has been playing the drums since he was 4 yrs old.
He and DJ AM survived a horrific plane crash in which the pilot, co-pilot, and his personal assistant were killed. DJ AM would die of an accidental drug overdose at the age of 36 the following year.
Talking about his wife's pregnancy, Barker told People magazine in May
2005: "Hopefully it will be Christmas Eve. I'm hoping for a girl." His
baby girl was later born on Christmas Eve.
Played with The Aquabats and occasionally filled in for Blink-182's drummer, Scott Raynor. After Raynor's exit in 1998, he was quickly asked to come aboard the Blink-182 ship.
If we play to first time Blink-182 listeners, it's good they are listening to us and not the Backstreet Boys. Old fans or new fans, it's all the same to us.
