DJ AM Spinning in the Afterlife Now

1973-2009

First, what the hell do I know about DJ AM? No offense to him, his memory, and all of his accomplishments, but I do not know what made him who he is besides his job of spinning records at big parties held by celebutantes and whatnot. But of course, we can always point back at the horrific plane crash he and drummer Travis Barker miraculously survived. So, no, I'm not so sad about DJ AM himself but rather sad about the fraility of life that followed AM. It's prophetic because of the circumstances around his death.

So Adam Goldstein, AM's real name, died only a year after enduring severe burns in the South Carolina plane crash. TMZ says prescription pills were found around AM's body when he was found dead in a NYC apartment.

All I know about AM is he was friends with Paris Hilton, used to date Nicole Richie and Mandy Moore, and was on that damn episode of Entourage in which he takes a pair of stupid ass graffiti'd Nikes from Turtle.

I don't know. It sucks that another person has died, albeit someone who got moderately famous for being famous, then notorized for surviving something he should have died in. But look at it this way. He's now spinning records in the afterlife behind a Michael Jackson performance in a nightclub that includes Billy Mays, Natasha Richardson, Les Paul, Ed McMahon, Karl Malden, Edward Kennedy, and Charo. Charo's dead right?
