This isn’t really My Chemical Romance-related, but…

Rock drummer Travis Barker (formerly Blink-182, currently +44) and Adam “DJ AM” Goldstein were in a near-fatal airplane crash last night in Columbia, South Carolina. Four people were killed, and were identified as “pilot Sarah Lemmon, 31, of Anaheim Hills; co-pilot James Bland, 52, of Carlsbad; Chris Baker, 29, of Studio City; and Charles Still, 25, of Los Angeles.” All four were from California.

Our hearts go out to their families, friends, and fans.

oh my god. i read the whole stuff.
here http://edition.cnn.com/2008/SHOWBIZ/Music/09/21/barker.plane.crash/index.html?iref=mpstoryview they say “Barker received burns on his torso and lower body from the jet crash late Friday. Goldstein was burned on his arm and head, Mullins said.”
that’s terrible.
they also say that the burns are second- and third-degree.
i’m not good with the english stuff, but i’m sure that 2nd and 3rd burns degrees are very bad. :(
They were so lucky to survive at this tragic episode, but unfortunately not all of them. :(

I’m not a fan of blink or +44, but it’s terrible to hear bad news that happened to someone.

I hope that Travis and Adam get better, and I pray for the families of the other 4 passengers.

It’s a tragic loss, and I pray that strength can be with them in this time of need.

Thanks for sharing this with us though.
