We'll just use your thread for it...

Hospital spokeswoman Beth Frits says Barker and DJ AM, whose real name is Adam Goldstein, were at a burn center in Augusta, Georgia.

Federal officials say two crew members and two passengers have been killed.

doh, we posted almost the same time. From the looks of the plane, it doesn't look good. They are at a burn unit so I wonder how bad it is.

A hospital spokeswoman says former Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker and a popular disc jockey have been critically injured in a Learjet crash in South Carolina that killed four people.

Thanks for telling us who it is.

I hope they make it out alright.

EDIT: Crap, I just noticed it lower in the article.

It's DJ AM, aka Adam Goldstein, who was Nicole Richie's ex-b/f.

And I must say its creepy to me cause I've flown out of Columbia's airport and driven around it, so depending how far the plane went, I may have driven by where he crashed.

Re: Travis Barker (Blink 182) in plane crash

read that they were the only 2 to get out of the plane. They made it out before rescue crews arrived. The other 4 people never made it out.

Not to detract from the matter at hand, but it was damn nice lineup for a free concert. Never got anything like this while I was there:

DJ AM and Travis Barker were critically injured in a plane crash Friday night (September 19) in Columbia, South Carolina. They had just performed at a free T-Mobile-sponsored show in the Five Points area, along with Perry Farrell and headliner Gavin DeGraw. Farrell's manager, Peter Katsis, confirmed that Farrell was not on the plane.

They said two of the dead were crew members and one of the dead was a female. That leaves one male passenger that died. With Gavin DeGraw not being accounted for, I can only hope for his sake that he wasn't close enough with Barker to fly with him

Well hopefully he survives. It would suck for the second Travis Barker is dead rumor to be true.

Reminds me of the plane crash that killed Richie Valens and Buddy Holly.
I don't like Barker, but I hope he pulls through.

On an odd note, the MySpace video of the day on the music main page starts out with Travis Barker and DJ AM (Nicole Richie's ex)

Re: Travis Barker (Blink 182) in plane crash

they have "extensive burns" according to CNN....

Re: Travis Barker (Blink 182) in plane crash

Well, Perry Ferrall wasn't on the plane as previously reported, and Gavin DeGraw looks like he wasn't on the plane either. WIS TV has 3 of the 4 deceased's names and i believe the last unnamed one is a female.

Damn...hopefully he pulls through. I'm a big fan, would hate to see this.

From reading the description, here's roughly where they plane crashed in relation to the airport:

Sucks that Barker got hurt but the real prayers should go to those that lost their life in this. Hopefully Barker heels well.
