Oh wow, this is really sad. I was just getting ready to go have breakfast and Seth yells from the other room that the drummer of Blink 182 and some DJ died in a plane crash. I was like, "What?? Travis Barker?? What DJ? Not DJ AM, right??" I seriously almost started crying. So I rush to the computer to find out the scoop and yes, it was Travis Barker and DJ AM (Adam Goldstein), but no, they did NOT die. They are however, in critical condition and being treated for severe burns at an Augusta, Georgia burn center. :-(

Apparently their Learjet 60 crashed during takeoff from South Carolina's Columbia Metropolitan Airport, just before midnight on Friday. Travis and AM were in Columbia, South Carolina Friday night for a T-Mobile sponsored concert at Five Points, a popular shopping district. The plane was headed for Van Nuys, CA.

Four people died in the crash.The deceased have been identified as pilot Sarah Lemmon, 31, of Anaheim Hills, CA co-pilot James Bland, 52, of Carlsbad, CA, Chris Baker (Assistant to Travis), 29, of Studio City, CA, and Charles Still, 25 of Los Angeles, CA.

The plane crash is still under investigation, however, during a press conference late Saturday morning a spokeswoman for the National Transportation Safety Board revealed that the plane overran the airstrip and proceeded to run into a number of the airport's lights and antenna. Air traffic controller "saw sparks coming from the runway" before the crash. Investigators don't know if that was from the aircraft or its engines.

So so sad. Thoughts and prayers go out to the victim's families.
