Blink 182 canceled Saratoga concert due to DJ AM's death

Tweet

Blink 182 decided to canceled their show in Saratoga Springs, New York, saying band members were grieving the death of their friend DJ AM.

The band's statement over the cancellation:

"Due to circumstances surrounding the unfortunate and untimely passing of our dear friend Adam "DJ AM" Goldstein, blink-182 will not be playing tonight in Saratoga, NY at SPAC ... We thank all of our fans for their support in this tough time."

DJ AM (real name: Adam Goldstein) was found dead in his New York City apartment and the cause of death is still pending but initial investigations reveals drug paraphernalia (prescription pill bottles and "crack pipe") was found in the apartment.

Goldstein and Travis Barker were both survivors of a plane crash last year in South Carolina that killed four people.
