MTV Will Release DJ AM Doc

DJ AMThe regret surrounding the tragic death of Adam ‘DJ YM’ Goldstein will deepen when MTV airs his eight-episode documentary ‘Gone Too Far’ on Monday, October 12th, MTV reports.

The documentary will feature DJ AM’s meetings with addicts, along with their friends and family, discussing the struggles, causes and possible solutions of addiction. The episodes will also reveal the details of his personal addiction, predominantly to crack cocaine.

Goldstein’s mission to blow open the discussion on drug abuse in North America came to a halt when he died of an accidental overdose at his New York City apartment on August 28th. Many suspect that the excessive drug use was linked to the mental and physical trauma he suffered after a plane crash in 2008.

His death may help cement the documentary’s conveyance of the dangerous toll that drugs take on the lives of addicts, and also those around them. He is a living example of that senseless fate.

Farrell: ‘Navarro Reality Show Split Jane’s Addiction’

Rocker PERRY FARRELL has blamed bandmate DAVE NAVARRO’s reality TV talent contest ROCK STAR for breaking up JANE’S ADDICTION.

The frontman reveals the group fell apart when guitarist Navarro started co-hosting the reality series, which found singers for INXS and Tommy Lee supergroup Rock Star: Supernova.

Farrell admits he “just couldn’t believe it” when Navarro announced he was fronting a mainstream TV show.

He says, “Rock ‘n’ roll has never been about kissing ass and a contest. You know, rock ‘n’ roll is self-expression. It’s defiance. It’s freedom.”
