Still mourning the death of their friend, DJ AM, Blink 182 is rumored to be canceling two of their upcoming shows featuring Weezer and Taking Back Sunday.
A representative for Weezer revealed that the concert for tomorrow night in Cleveland has been canceled.
As for Thursday's St. Louis show, Taking Back Sunday guitarist Eddie Reyes Twittered that he was in his home state of Ohio and wouldn't be getting back to the tour until the Kansas City show on Friday, adding to the rumors of cancellation.
We know it's very important to take time to grieve, but be sure to take care of your fans too!
Just days after the tragic death of ex boyfriend DJ AM, model Hayley Wood has released a statement, denying rumors that the couple's breakup caused his untimely passing.
Wood says:
"Any indication that this horribly tragic accident happened because of a rumored breakup is not only untrue but disgusting. We were very much together at the time of his passing, and I love him very much."
Friends close to DJ AM have told officials that the day before his death, he had announced he would be going to rehab, as he had relapsed and was heavily using drugs.
The insiders told investigators that on the day before his death, his West Coast manager and recovery sponsor flew to NYC to see DJ AM (aka Adam Goldstein) to discuss his erratic behavior in the previous weeks. When they arrived at his apartment, DJ AM only let his sponsor inside.
That's when, to the horror of his friend, DJ AM "lit up a crack pipe and popped pills" right in front of him.
From there, he promised his manager and sponsor that after his gig in Las Vegas last Friday, he would check himself into a rehab in California. But, as we know, he never made it to that performance as he was found dead the next day.
Though the cause of death won't be determined for a few more weeks, it is sad to think that if it was drugs that killed him, he was on his way to salvation, but was just too late.
Blink-182 has pulled out of performing at SPAC in Saratoga, NY, Monday night due to the recent passing of the band's close friend, DJ AM.
Mark, Tom and Travisposted the following message regarding the cancellation on their official website:
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. Performances by Weezer, Taking Back Sunday and Chester French will take place as planned along with some special surprises. We thank all of our fans for their support in this tough time.

Famed addiction specialist Dr. Drew Pinksy believes that the pain medication given to DJ AM for injuries in the plane crash he survived last year, may have contributed to his untimely demise.
"It very slowly and subtly reawakens addiction," said Drew of prescribed meds igniting a possible relapse. "I'm not saying it was inappropriately prescribed, I'm saying he didn't know the risks."
DJ AM was said to be taking anxiety and pain medication for two skin graft surgeries undergone due to injuries sustained in a 2008 plane crash.
As the New York City Medical Examiners office struggles to find the cause of DJ AM's tragic passing, authorities have discovered the inner workings of his last day.
At 1 a.m. on the day he was discovered in his NYC apartment, Adam Goldstein (AKA DJ AM) sent a text message to two friends about his Las Vegas gig that day at Rain Nightclub at the Palms.
Sixteen hours later, his friends called 911 because the deejay could not be reached before his scheduled flight as he was not answering his cell phone.
According to a police source, the NYPD broke down the door to his SoHo apartment to find him lifeless.
The initial autopsy report was proved "inconclusive," so a toxicology report will be expected in the following weeks, despite drugs found on the scene.
DJ AM's former girlfriend and close friend Mandy Moore has released a statement about AM's untimely passing.
Says Mandy:
I am absolutely heartbroken. For those of us lucky enough to have known him, Adam radiated a contagious exuberance for life and also personified the very definition of a true friend. To say that he will be missed beyond words is an understatement. My heart goes out to his loved ones
The Luxor headlining illusionist was recorded having quite the verbal altercation with Joe Monti, one of his magic producers on Wednesday, during which Angel is heard threatening to knock him out - and now he's had a police report filed against him!
Give it a listen (above)!
Furthermore, Monti later said to authorities that he recorded the meeting because Angel has a history of bullying employees!
He explains:
“I wanted him to know how demeaning he was. I created 50-60 percent of the magic for ‘Mindfreak.' I have no reason to do anything vindictively but I draw the line on violence.”
