Blink-182 postpones Tijuana gig and Latin American reunion tour due to drummer Travis Barker's finger surgery

The first leg of Blink-182's 2023 reunion tour has been pushed back to allow drummer Travis Barker to recover from finger surgery he underwent Tuesday after injuring one of his fingers — twice — during rehearsals for the tour.

As a result, the pop-punk band's tour-opening March 11 show at the Imperial GNP festival in Tijuana has been pushed back to 2024, along with its 10 other March and April concerts in Mexico and South America.

Assuming Barker, 46, is fully healed, the tour will now open May 4 at Minnesota's Xcel Energy Center in St. Paul.
