Travis Barker Released From L.A. Burn Center: Report'I can't wait to get out of here and be home with the babes,' drummer blogged before discharge.

Just one day after assuring fans via his MySpace blog that he would soon be released from the hospital, Travis Barker was indeed discharged from the Grossman Burn Center on Friday (October 17), a representative for the 32-year-old told "Access Hollywood."

The former Blink-182 drummer had been recovering at the Los Angeles burn center after suffering major tissue damage on his hands and lower body following a plane crash near Columbia, South Carolina, that claimed the lives of four people.

"I think I'm getting out of the hospital soon. I can't wait to get out of here and be home with the babes," Barker blogged from the center, where he also posed for pictures with friends and family by his bedside, including the Game and his former Transplants bandmate "Skinhead" Rob Alston. "The doctors say I'm healing up quickly, and I'm gonna be out of here b4 you know it."

It's unclear exactly what treatment Barker received while at the center, although ex-wife Shanna Moakler said in a recent interview that he had upward of seven skin grafts and multiple additional surgeries. A graft is a surgical technique whereby donor skin (in some cases from an animal or the recently deceased) is held in place over the patient's skin to both prevent infection and encourage healing.

The crash's only other survivor, DJ AM, was released from the hospital September 26. AM recently had his first performance since the crash on Wednesday evening, when he DJed for Jay-Z at a Hollywood concert.
