Former Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker has opened up to the press and was interviewed by Us Weekly. In the latest issue of the magazine, Barker says, "My biggest fear ever is to be involved in a plane crash, so when that happened ... well, I'm just thankful to be alive! I'm just grateful to be here at all."
The musician has been in the hospital suffering from severe burns since the crash that took place on September 19th. Two pilots and two other passengers were killed, including Barker's assistant Chris Baker. Barker was released from a Georgia hospital last week and is now being treated at a burn center in Los Angeles.
"I am doing the best I can possibly be," he told the magazine, "I'm so anxious to get out of here. I've just been in surgery after surgery. I have third-degree burns basically from my feet up to my waist and both hands. One of my hands has second-degree burns and one has third-degree burns."
