Blink-182 reschedules more residency dates due to Travis Barker's health issues. Last week, the band announced that its first few tour dates have been pushed back.
Barker, who serves as the drummer of Blink-182 was re-admitted to the hospital due to some complications from the blood clots found in both of his arms. Last week, he was admitted to the hospital for treatment. Doctors are currently tending to Barker, who is suffering from staph infection and cellulitis. To ease his illness, physicians are reportedly administering blood thinners.

A statement was uploaded on the band's official Twitter account announcing that more residency dates have been postponed.
"Barker has been ordered by the doctors to refrain from any activity that may cause further damage or cause the clots to travel. As it stands now, he will be prevented from playing until the beginning of July when everything will be re-evaluated," read a statement on one of the band's social media accounts.
As of late, the new tour dates have not yet been announced, but Blink-182 is expected to give their fans an update soon. Fans who already purchased tickets and who are not available on the new show dates will be given a full refund.
Travis Barker's Health Issues

He previously battled drug and alcohol addiction and was also involved in a plane crash that killed four people 10 years ago. He also struggled with PTSD and burns caused by the crash. In 2009, he lost his best friend, Adam Goldstein, to overdose.
Three years ago, Barker shared that his life has changed for the better ever since he had his children. He said that he was no longer suffering from the demons that he once faced.
