This weekend, a damn good dj and a friend of Dj TechTools was badly injured in a terrible accident. Adam Goldstein, or Dj AM, is one of the top djs on the American club circuit and has been doing an innovative show with blink 182 drummer, Travis Barker, for several years now. Adam and Travis were leaving a show back east when their Jet overran the runway and crashed into a nearby highway. More details and a video on this terrible accident can be found on a CNN article here. Both men are currently in critical condition and its unclear how they will fare. We want to spread the word and send out all of our best wishes for a full and speedy recovery. Please keep Adam and Travis in your thoughts over the coming week.

Wow it sounds like they really got messed up in the crash - i am wishing them a speedy recovery !
I have never really felt bad for a celebrity getting really hurt or dieing but when i heard this one I was deeply sad. I look up to DJ AM and Travis Barker, I hope they get better there time on this earth is not up. And to be the only 2 to survive the crash they have to live to tell there testimony because it will be a true blessing.

Hopefully, they’ll have a speedy recovery.
The short version update is that they both have heavy burns but due to no crushing injuries from the crash, they are expected to make a full recovery.
Our prayers also to the families of the pilot, co-pilot, Tavis Barker’s assistant and 1 security gaurd…none of which survived the crash.
wish them the best
Its looking good and they appear to be doing well.
Glad to hear that. Thoughts are with them!
I feel sorry for the families who lost family members in the crash - my heart really goes out to them.
Its good to hear they recovering well, i wonder how they are doing now.
