Travis Barker Gets Tattoo In Tribute To Taylor Hawkins

Latest Drum News

Travis Barker Took to Instagram posting that he got a “hawk” tattoo in tribute of Taylor Hawkins.

The Blink-182 drummer took to Instagram to share images from the tattoo parlor of celebrity body artist Mark Mahoney. Barker — whose heavily tatted body is a veritable canvas — was accompanied by his fianceé Courtney Kardashian as Mahoney inked a detailed hawk design on his ankle.

“HAWK forever,” reads the post caption.

Barker and Hawkins were longtime friends. When the Foo Fighters drummer tragically passed away on March 25th, Barker posted a touching tribute along with a candid backstage photo of Hawkins.

I don’t have the words,” Barker wrote. “Sad to write this or to never see you again. I’ll never forget Laguna Beach days when I was a trash man playing in a punk rock band and you were playing with Alanis. You’d come watch me play in dive bars and be like, ‘kid you’re a star.’ And I thought you were crazy, but you gave me so much hope and determination.
