I was just watching a video of them performing at the MTV Video Music Awards. They had a pretty awesome Oasis remix.

Hope both guys are able to make a full recovery from this. They will be in our thoughts and prayers.

It's also being reported that one of the tires might have burst during take off which caused the plane to careen out of control.
