Yesterday, friends and family of the late Adam Goldstein, aka DJ AM, gathered at the Hillside Memorial Park and Mortuary in Los Angeles for a private funeral. Among the mourners was Blink 182 band member Travis Barker, the only survivor besides AM of a tragic plane crash in 2008. It is the injuries from this sad event which are said to have plunged AM back into drug use, needing pain killers after nearly a decade of sobriety. The exact cause still awaiting confirmation, AM’s passing is likely linked (speculation heavy on either overdose or suicide) to the crack, crack pipe and OxyContin found in his system and hear his body in the SoHo apartment where he was found.

A FUNERAL IS NOT AN EVENT YOU TAKE PICTURES OF!!!!!! VERY CLASSY GUEST OF A GUEST!!!
Well, we didn’t take the pictures…
As a news source, we felt we had to share it as a human interest story. Also, AM did so much to combat drug use. Showing the horrible outcomes which may result is critical in continuing the fight. It supports the lessons Adam tried so hard to teach.
