DJ AM was found dead in his Manhattan apartment. Our hearts go out to DJ AM’s friends and family. Rest in peace.

More on this here.

Travis Barker will be joining DJ-AM in Vegas for a special TRV$ DJ-AM performance tonight after the blink-182 show. Check it out at Rain at the Palms Resort & Casino (4321 West Flamingo Road, Las Vegas, NV 89103). 21+.

Travis Barker was on KROQ’s Kevin & Bean show this morning.  He talked about TRV$ DJ-AM, blink-182, and more.  Listen here (excuse the gap, the KROQ site buffered for a few seconds when he’s talking about his kids):

He talked about the upcoming blink-182 tour:

Every Wednesday and Friday right now we’ve been rehearsing.  Going from songs like Carousel and Josie to a new song that we’ve been playing called Up All Night.

We usually only play for 45 minutes…it’s gonna be like 30 songs in an hour and a half.

On the upcoming Jimmy Kimmel outdoor mini-concert:

We are playing songs like Josie, Feeling This, Rock Show.  I think we’re playing like 6 or 8 songs.  I think 2 are televised and then the rest is like a mini concert.

Travis tweeted:

Travis tweeted:

@kroq How bout AM & I will debut our mix-tape over at KROQ next week when it drops on Wed?

Also, Travis’ Twitter background will be the cover for Fix Your Face 2:

Our good friends at The Rock N Roll Super Show took some exclusive photos for 182 Online of the TRV$ DJ-AM set at the KROQ Weenie Roast (and we were prepared just in case blink-182 did play a surprise set). They took these for us but there’s even more photos of TRV$ DJ-AM on their site as well as a review of the show! Stay tuned for some more collaborations with The Rock N Roll Super Show in the future. If you haven’t checked out the show, you can subscribe to their video podcast on iTunes or follow them on Twitter.

Fans who watched the live stream of the KROQ Weenie Roast on KROQ.com Saturday night saw this video at the end of the stream after TRV$ DJ-AM’s set.  Throughout the day KROQ played pre-recorded videos between the sets and this was obviously one of those pre-recorded videos.  Was blink-182 originally supposed to be the surprise act at Weenie Roast like so many fans had hoped?  KROQ tweeted:

@iheartsmegma Blink 182 did not play. It was an error. We recorded two show closes and played the wrong one. Our video guy was drunk.

KROQ is streaming the Weanie Roast live online.  TRV$ DJ-AM are set to go on at 9:30PM PST. You can watch the show below or on KROQ.com:

the return of blink-182 to the stage!!! t-mobile threw a big party at the paramount lot here in los angeles to launch their new sidekick, and they asked us to play. the whole thing was a secret. travis and dj-am were already scheduled to perform, and as a surprise ending, blink-182 came out at the very end and played a few songs. during the night, weezer performed and played the hits, along with a few covers. TRVS/DJ-AM dominated (as they always do), and then we played. to be honest, it was one of the best nights of my life. thanks to everyone who was there. thanks to t-mobile. and most of all, thanks to travis and tom. you are my brothers, and it feels amazing to share the stage with you once again.

here are some photos from throughout the day and night.
