Having spent the last three months on the road for a massive US tour in support of Blink-182's latest album, California, drummer Travis Barker has revealed he has been unknowingly performing the last two weeks with a broken foot. 

Taking to Facebook on Wednesday night, the 40-year-old confirmed that x-rays show his right foot is fractured, but that won't stop him from performing the final three shows of the tour this week. 

"Been in the worst pain for the last 2 weeks not knowing I had a broken foot night after night," Barker wrote in an online post.

"Finally got to the doctor and X-rays show my right foot is fractured. Regardless, I'm gonna power thru these last 3 shows starting tonight Santa Barbara."

The band, with new recruit Matt Skiba, have been performing to sold out crowds around the country and the last three shows of the current tour will likely be their last until the annual 91 X 'Wrex The Halls' Christmas gig in San Diego this December.

There has been speculation that founding member Tom Delonge will return to the line-up sometime in the future on the back of a recent documentary detailing his time with Blink, as well as comments made by Barker who said "the opportunity for [Delonge] to return will always be there".

Speaking to theMusic earlier this year however, fellow founding member Mark Hoppus said the next step for Blink would be to get straight back into the studio to record more music

"I think the idea would be to get back in and record more, yeah, for sure," Hoppus said.

"That's the process of touring and recording. We want to have music out more often than every five years that's for sure.
