Blink-182 recently announced that they are postponing their European tour dates in Glasgow, Belfast, and Dublin due to an "urgent family matter." Drummer Travis Barker had to rush back home to the United States, but it is unclear what the specific issue is. The band shared the news on their Instagram account, promising to provide more information about rescheduled dates as soon as it is available.

The timing of Barker's return home is especially notable because he and his wife, Kourtney Kardashian, recently announced that they are expecting a baby boy. Kardashian revealed her pregnancy to Barker during one of their shows in Los Angeles. They shared the news on their social media accounts and had a gender reveal party with a music tour theme.

The affected concerts were supposed to be Blink-182's first UK and Ireland performances since guitarist Tom DeLonge returned to the band's pop-punk lineup. It remains uncertain when the rescheduled tour dates will be announced, but the October concerts in the UK are set to proceed as scheduled.
