Travis Barker Honors DJ AM on 14th Anniversary of His Demise

Travis Barker is paying tribute to his late good friend DJ AM.

The Blink-182 drummer honored the DJ on Aug. 28—the 14th anniversary of his loss of life—by sharing a collection of throwback images on Instagram Tales. 

DJ AM, whose actual title was Adam Goldstein, handed away in 2009 on the age of 36. A spokesperson for the New York health worker later confirmed to the Los Angeles Occasions that the musician died of an unintentional overdose. 

Simply the yr earlier than, DJ AM and Travis—who carried out collectively as TRV$DJAM—had been the only real survivors of a airplane crash that killed 4 individuals. 

“I caught fireplace,” Travis recalled throughout a 2015 Larry King Now interview. “I get very, very scared. I run. I seize Adam. He is handed out. I open the emergency exit. I soar into the jet gas, so my complete physique is engulfed in flames at this level. Adam sees me soar into the precise jets and grow to be, like, absolutely on fireplace, and he jumps round and follows me. And he is actually on his cellphone calling our supervisor going, ‘Our airplane crashed. Travis is on fireplace.'”
