DJ AM and Travis Barker at the MTV Video Music Awards (9/7)
Former Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker and DJ AM are both in critical condition after the Learjet they were traveling in crashed shortly after take off from a Columbia, South Carolina, airport early Saturday morning. Four others — the two pilots, a security guard, and Barker’s assistant — were killed. From Us Weekly:
Federal Aviation Administration spokeswoman Kathleen Bergen tells the Associated Press the plane, carrying six people, was departing shortly before midnight Friday when air traffic controllers reporting seeing sparks. It appears the plane was attempting to take off, ran off the runway through a fence and hit an embankment, according to initial reports. The plane then caught fire.
Sources tell TMZ.com that Barker and DJ AM saved their own lives by jumping out the door of the burning plane, almost immediately after the small jet came to a halt. (Source)
I think the only proper response here is: HOLY SHIT.
Fucking crazy
Pray For Them.
That’s so scary.
Crazy ass world.
Luckily they’re okay, but its a shame all of those other people passed away from the accident.
Sounds like AM’s face is pretty messed up, that he’s in a doctor induced coma, and was able to call his mom from the ambulance before reaching the hospital.
Travis seems to be a bit better.
Crazy crazy crazy shit. Hopefully they can recover to the fullest of possibilites.
Maybe if that tattooed tool had the intellect to know that that bit that sticks out on a cap goes to the front . . . . . . . . . oh, who cares? I’ve never heard of these two, and I don’t give a tinker’s cuss what happens to them.
Silver lining: scar/graft tissue creates a clean slate for more ink.
Fuck you oliver you fucking foreign piece of shit. Why would you come to the website and say anything if you dont know who they are, which BTW if you dont know who Travis Baraker is you must be mentally fucking retarded. Karma’s a bitch mother fucker.
Touchy little thing aren’t you? What makes you think I’m foreign? That’s if you think at all. And you set up a new name jus’ fo’ li’l ol’ me? I feel so special. BTW (see, I can be cool too) you lose just the teeniest bit of credibility when you mispell the very dick you defend so vociferously. I’m retarded just because I’ve never heard of some dopey looking dork? OK then, I’m retarded. At least I’m not you. But kudos to klark kent, he can see the funny side of this utterly inconsequential story.
Who cares? It’s a junkie DJ and a third rate drummer.
I have been playing since I was 5 and I’m 19 now. After Bonham died, that was the end of good drummers. Fuck Tbark, he can’t play more than JAM beats and and a few rudiments, on a really expensive kit. Fuck! I’m the new Ginger Baker
I just hope that tbark will be ok and seriously who argues with ppl they don’t even know over a fucking computer screen, it’s not like a few letters is actually going to intimidate anyone,
thank god they are ok!!!!!!!!!
