As <a href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/dj_am/artist.jhtml">DJ AM</a> continues to recover from second- and third-degree burns he suffered in last month's <a href="/news/articles/1595303/20080920/barker__travis.jhtml">plane crash in South Carolina</a>, his fellow DJs are making sure he's getting the kind of homecoming party he deserves.
</p><p><a href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/ronson_mark/artist.jhtml">Mark Ronson</a>, Steve Aoki, Danny Masterson and <a href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/mix_master_mike/artist.jhtml">Mix Master Mike</a> are just some of AM's friends confirmed to perform at the <a href="http://www.wantickets.com/EventDetail.aspx?e_id=46643" target="_blank">Welcome Home DJ AM party</a>, to be held October 14 at Avalon Hollywood. Tickets for the event are $20, and all proceeds will go to the memorial funds established in the names of the four people who were killed in the accident.
</p><p>In a statement to <a href="http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20231727,00.html" target="_blank">People.com</a>, event organizers said that AM (born Adam Goldstein) has been "a close friend ... for many years," and that the party is being organized not just as a fundraiser, but because his friends feel they "owe him a debt of gratitude that we can never repay, but we hope this helps just a bit."
</p><p>The September 19 Learjet crash claimed the lives of four people, including <a href="/news/articles/1595413/20080922/barker__travis.jhtml">Travis Barker's assistant, Chris Baker</a>, and his security guard, Charles Still, as well as pilot Sarah Lemmon and co-pilot James Bland.
</p><p>Both Barker and AM escaped the crash with burns and are expected to make a full recovery. Less than a week after the crash, <a href="/news/articles/1595737/20080926/dj_am.jhtml">AM was released</a> from Georgia's M. Still Burn Center and returned home to Los Angeles. <a href="/news/articles/1595849/20080929/barker__travis.jhtml">Barker was released</a> from the same facility last week, and recently <a href="/news/articles/1596545/20081008/barker__travis.jhtml">spoke to <i>Us Weekly</i> about the crash</a>, telling the magazine that he is "thankful to be alive."
