Blink-182 have postponed four shows on their European Tour in September as drummer Travis Barker flew back home to deal with an urgent family matter.
"Due to an urgent family matter, Travis has had to return home to the States. The Glasgow, Belfast, and Dublin shows are being postponed. More information in regards to his return to Europe and rescheduled dates will be provided as soon as available," the rock band tweeted on X.
The band did not disclose any details about the reason for Barker's urgent return home.
Barker also did not speak a word about it, other than sharing some photos of a dedicated prayer room on Instagram Stories, with one of them featuring a flag that read "together we pray."
Blink-182 was set to perform in Glasgow on Friday and Saturday, in Belfast on Monday, and in Dublin on Tuesday. Their next tour concert is scheduled for September 8 in the Belgian city of Antwerp.
