Blink 182 Pay Tribute To DJ AM During Concert

“This night is really hard for us on stage,” bassist Mark Hoppus said from the stage. “We lost a dear friend yesterday. His name was Adam Goldstein. You probably know him as DJ AM. He was an innovator and a genius and he loved music more than anything else. Above all he was a dear friend.”

The group also asked the crowd for a moment of silence to remember their good friend, the crowd held up their lighters during the moment of silence then yelled “we love you guys” after they started crying onstage. Then they played a song in DJ AM’s honor.

“This song is called ‘Down.’ and it goes something like this,” said Hoppus. As guitarist Tom DeLonge delivered the lyric “I need you so bad,” tears rolled down the cheeks of all three members of Blink-182.

 ”We are doing our very best to get through this show,” said Hoppus, “but right now it’s very hard.”

I can only imagine how they all felt, especially Travis who survived along with DJ AM in a plane crash last year.
