They don't really say too much about his condition. I hope it's not as bad as they make it sound with the "seriously injured" part.

Former Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker has been seriously injured in a Learjet plane crash in South Carolina, in the US, that has killed four people.
A Federal Aviation Administration spokeswoman said the plane, which was trying to take off, went off the runway and crashed on a nearby road.
She said air traffic controllers had reported seeing sparks coming from the plane, which was carrying six people.
Barker and US radio DJ Adam Goldstein are being treated for burns.
In February 2005, pop punk trio Blink-182 announced they were going on an "indefinite hiatus" with no plans to work together in the future.
The band's record label Geffen said that Barker and bandmates Tom DeLonge and Mark Hoppus aimed to "spend some time enjoying the fruits of their labours with loved ones".
Blink-182 had nine UK hits including All the Small Things in 2000.

UPDATE: Travis Barker has been burned from the waist down, but he is expected to survive the plane crash. DJ AM's face was severely burned and is being tended to right now.
UPDATE from Travis' blog:
Quote:
Both Travis Barker and Adam Goldstein (DJ AM) are in critical but stable condition and are being treated at Joseph M. Still Burn Center in Augusta, Georgia after surviving a plane crash late last night in Columbia, South Carolina. The hospital will issue a statement with an update on their condition at 9:00 am eastern time tomorrow. Due to the nature of the injuries and the evolving course of treatment no further information on their condition is available at this time. The accident claimed the lives of four people on board, two of whom, Chris Baker (Lil Chris) and Charles Stills (Che), were close friends of the injured. On behalf of Travis Barker and DJ AM, deepest sympathy is expressed to the loved ones of all who perished in the crash. As the two recouperate and mourn this loss, privacy for them, their families, and friends is requested.
Christ, another pop shitstain that lives on. Why don't all the bad ones die young?
And DJ AM? Fuck DJ AM. I hope his skin melts over his eyes so he can't work with any other terrible artists.
Or he can become a villain.

Lol...DJ AM, yeah, he's nothing special. But Travis Barker, on the other hand, is one of the most respected musicians in the industry. Not only is he an amazing drummer, but the variety he's capable of and the amount of people he's worked with is astonishing.
Meh. Don't really care for DJ... well, any DJ, really. But Travis? I admit, I used to listen to Blink back in the day (I was young and stupid. I'm still stupid, but not as much.), but maybe this will make him wake up and make some badass music. Tragedy is the artist's inspiration, after all.
