DJ AM's friends announce Hollywood benefit concert

NEW YORK (AP) _ Friends of DJ AM are throwing a party to welcome the celebrity disc jockey home after he survived a fiery plane crash last month in South Carolina.

Mark Ronson, Cut Chemist, Steve Aoki and other AM pals will perform at the event, which will be held Tuesday night at the Avalon nightclub in Hollywood, California.

DJ AM, whose real name is Adam Goldstein, and former Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker suffered severe burns in the September 19th crash in Columbia, South Carolina. Two pilots and two other passengers were killed.

Organizers say all proceeds will go to memorial funds for the crash victims.
