PLANE CRASH ENDED BARKER'S WILD LIFE
A 2008 plane crash which almost cost BLINK-182 star TRAVIS BARKER his life put an end to the rocker's wild ways.
Travis Barker and children at the 2009 Los Angeles Film Festival - Premiere of 'Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen' held at Mann Village Theatre. Los Angeles, California - 22.06.09
The drummer was left with severe burns after the tragedy, which claimed the lives of two friends and two pilots, and admits he no longer has the urge to party, preferring instead to stay at home and hang out with his kids.
Barker tells Rolling Stone magazine, "My crash happened, and all that ended. I don't go out since my crash.
"I don't have the crazy drug problem, I'm not making out with socialites. I'm focused on my kids and my music, and when I do have fun, I try to keep it private."
