I don't know if it's true, but if it is, you heard it here first.

Yeah, I went and saw them in the only Australian show they actually got to play. Travis hurt his leg like one or two days after. It was lucky we wound up going to Melbourne in the end. :love:

Um, it's impossible to play drums without using your feet.

Ok, well, it is POSSIBLE, but there is no point.

You need to be able to control the bass drum and the hi-hat.

How did he break his ankle? He should only be out for a month right? I would also like to know the set they played.

Blink 182 should have gotten a replacement drummer. That's kind of lame to cancel a whole tour because your drummer is injured. It's not like Travis' drumlines are impossible to reproduce. I can play every blink song easily.

If I was them, I would have put on an accoustic set or something, while a friend is on his way to Australia to fill in.

I agree with Silent. Do you know what Opeth did when their drummer crapped out? They used GENE HOGLAN. And even after that, they found another replacement when Hoglan could only play certain Canadian dates.

Kinda messed up to leave your fans hanging like that. I'm sure there is plenty of drummers in Oz that could fill in.

They used him for a handful of songs... replaced him with a drum tech the rest of the time.

Although to be fair Opeth's drummer didn't drop out during the middle of the tour. That and some bands are reluctant to start temporarily replacing band members.

They broke up years ago because Scott no longer wanted to play in the band. I doubt he would come back even if asked.

Besides, most Blink fans wouldn't know who he is, because he only drummed pre-Enema of the State

I couldn't tell you every song in order, but they started with Family Reunion and went into Feeling This.

They played:

All The Small Things
I Miss You
What's My Age Again?
Obvious
Asthenia
Violence
Go
Here's Your Letter
The Rock Show
Down
First Date
Stay Together For The Kids (they got everyone to hold up their lighters and/or mobile phones for this one :D)

I know the last "real" song they played was Dammit, then they encored with Stockholm Syndrome. It was pretty good.
