Music: RIP DJ AM, a.k.a. Adam Goldstein, dead at 36 of a drug overdose

DJ AM
  • Dead too soon. Fought off death already. 11 months ago, DJ AM would have been one of the luckiest men alive. Today, he’s a man who couldn’t cheat death twice. Adam Goldstein, initially a member of Crazy Town and later a disc jockey to the stars who played numerous private events, was found dead in his New York apartment of a drug overdose today. It wasn’t supposed to happen this way. Goldstein (and Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker) miraculously survived a plane crash in September in which everyone else died. A shocking and sad story for sure. source
