Travis Barker is finally bidding goodbye to the Los Angeles burn centre where he has been recovering from injuries sustained in a plane crash last month.

The former Blink-182 drummer was released from the Grossman Burn Centre, which had been treating him for second- and third-degree burns, on Friday.

The day before, Barker had blogged on his MySpace page about his eagerness to return home to his two children.

“I think I’m getting out of the hospital soon,” he wrote. “I can’t wait to get out of here and be home with the babes. The doctors say I’m healing up quickly.”

Barker will continue treatment at home and is expected to make a full recovery in the coming months.

Also expected to recover fully is the crash’s only other survivor, Travis’s friend and musical collaborator DJ Adam Goldstein, who is known as DJ AM.

Goldstein was discharged from hospital on Sept. 26 and appeared Wednesday at a Hollywood concert deejaying for Jay-Z, his first performance since the Sept. 19 crash in South Carolina.

The National Transportation and Safety Board is still investigating the crash, which killed four people.
