After having to postpone their Las Vegas residency and cancel a number of dates over the summer, blink-182 is back with an eight-show residency at the Palms Casino Resort in Vegas.
The rock band's beloved drummer, Travis Barker, officially got the a-ok from his doctors following a series of health problems that prevented him from playing for the past few months.
Barker, alongside vocalist Mark Hoppus and guitarist Matt Skiba, will be playing at the Palms Casino Resort on November 9th, 10th, 16th and 17th, having already completed four shows there. Check out some of the highlights so far!
October 26th (Opening night)
The band received a warm welcome from their audience at their first show back since Barker's initial injury over the summer. They kicked off the night with a spooky Halloween theme before digging out old crowd favorites like "Feeling This," "What's My Age Again?," "The Rock Show," "I Miss You" and "Adam's Song." They also played a few songs off their 2016 release, California, like "Bored to Death" and "Los Angeles."

Blink has kept a similar setlist throughout their residency so far, but included "Happy Holidays, You Bastard" from 2001's Take Off Your Pants and Jacket this night.
Here are some fan vids of the group playing "Adam's Song" and their opening track, "Feeling This."
Some other highlights...
During the residency's opening weekend, a couple got engaged on stage during "The Rock Show."
Another night, Travis Barker proved he's still got it (which we never doubted anyway) playing a bit of "Violence" BLINDFOLDED.
Looks like he's fully recovered!
