Nearly one year after after escaping a deadly plane crash with Adam Goldstein, Travis Barker has had to say goodbye.

In a series of messages posted today on his Twitter account, the drummer expressed sorrow for the passing of his friend. DJ AM, who used to perform with Barker as part of TRV$DJAM, was found dead yesterday in his New York apartment. An official cause of death is still on hold pending toxicology and tissue results.

“Don’t know how i am gonna play 2night but i am for AM. My brother is gone.i love u and miss u, i’ll never forget all the good times we had. I’ll never forget everything we’ve been thru and every time i play the drums i’ll think of you. U were an amazing friend/DJ/human being,” Travis wrote.

At a concert later in the evening, the band members of Blink-182 paid tribute to Goldstein. While hosting an onstage vigil, the lights in the room were darkened.
