Anyone else see this ticker over on CNN.com? It doesn't say anymore than they were critically injured. Not sure that anyone here was ever a Blink 182 fan...

Have a great day, everyone.
I still want you all to "take care"--I am just damn tired of typing it.

    perez hilton is constantly updating his site with incoming details

    the last one said Perry Farrell and Gavin Degraw were at the same show.

    Let's hope they didn't get on the plane.

    Never a big fan of Blink, I was gonna go see them before they were big over here in the UK at a small club, then they hit big with Whats my Age Again and what not and decided not to play the small clubs they were going to, very punk rock of them.:rolleyes:

    His last post says that Perry Ferrell was NOT on the plane. My husband was already speculating.

    THANK GOD.

    After Kurt, Shannon, Brad, and Layne, our generation doesn't need any more icons finding a premature death.

    This is a tragedy! Barker and A.M. are going to be haunted by this day for a long time, if not the rest of their life. They are very lucky to have walked out, but this is horrible.

    oh. wait. nevermind.

    I'm almost positive that Barker can out drum 95% of your favorite drummers.

    LOL. You didnt even say "he can out drum you" or "he can out drum any drummer you know"

    You went as far as saying "he can outdrum any of your favorite drummers"

    MY favorite drummers are: Matt Cameron, John Bonham, Danny Carey, and Carter Beauford. All MUCH better drummers then Travis Barker.

    heh heh, this thread took an interesting turn

    regardless of who's a better drummer though it's pretty tragic news. Never a fan of Travis and actually thought he was a bit of a dick but I hope for a speedy recovery either way. Same with AM.

    I have inadvertantly seen blink182 live and never have i seen a drummer do so much with only a kick, a snare, a tom, and a high hat or two.

    Not a fan but Travis IS a good drummer...

    I hope he's alright, this is horrible news.
    Believe me, when I was growin up, I thought the worst thing you could turn out to be was normal, So I say freaks in the most complementary way. Here's a song by a fellow freak - E.V

    That's really sad. Hope the two that survived are going to be okay.

    The latest update is that DJ AM has burns on 50% of his body with the worst being around his facial area. Barker's body below his waist is burned. No word on the degree of the burns or percentage of coverage on Barker.

    Either way, it'll be touch and go for some time if these guys really have that much of them burned. Scary. I know a few people in the entertainment industry that use private jets and have always been terrified of them.

    I had a migrane yesterday so didn't go near my computer. My roommate just told me about this.
    I'm not a blink182 fan at all BUT I would never wish this on anyone.

    I know that they (well Travis anyways) have children and having been through the loss of a parent, I wouldn't wish that on anyone either.
    I hope they make a speedy recovery....and my heart goes out to the families of those who died.
