DJ AM Dies

Sources tell us he was found in his apartment at around 5:20 PM. We're told drug paraphernalia was found at the scene.

Our sources say DJ AM had not been seen or heard from for a few days -- one of his friends went to check on him, but got no response after knocking on his apartment door.

We're told the friend called the cops, who gained entrance to his apartment and found the body.

Back in September of 2008, DJ AM and Travis Barker survived a plane crash in South Carolina. Four people died in the crash -- which was caused when the airplane aborted takeoff and then ran off the runway. DJ AM and Barker were the only survivors.

Quite honestly, I don't know who he is, but apparently he was kinda known in the US and was a survivor on that plane crash along with Travis Barker, so I thought I'd post this, since I haven't seen it yet.

In any case, RIP.

He was also in Crazy Town, who, on my inspection of their wikipedia page, have another deceased member. I'm starting to worry for Shifty

Don't know him, but it is always disheartening when a member of a music group passes away.

RIP. When I read this I was like "what, no", but it's true. Amazing DJ, I can tell you that.
