    Love the Beasties, saw them twice live, one of the best gigs I’ve ever seen was them on the Hello Nasty tour at Wembley Arena with the round revolving stage and Mix Master Mike providing the beats. They made so much energy from the crowd, insane! 

    Fave album, Ill Communication, followed by Check Your Head and Paul’s Boutique..

    $26.50... unbelievable.

    I saw them a few days later in Worcester, MA.


    I miss those days so very much.

    Saw them in 1995 at Maple Leaf Gardens. Pretty sure we had the worst seats in the house but it was still a great show and a lot of fun.

    I recently started reading the Beastie Boys Book and am about 1/3 the way thru. Mike and Adam, along w/ friends and contemporaries, trade anecdotal stories like to the way the exchange rhymes on the records. The book reads like a history lesson in hip hop. Highly recommended for fans of The Beasties and/or hip hop

    You need to check out the audio book.  Adam and Mike narrate it, as well as some unbelievable guests (e.g., Will Farrell, Jon Stewart, Snoop, Chuck D, etc.).

    I got the book for Christmas, and look forward to sitting down with it someday (If I ever finish the Faith No More biography... I really need to dedicate more time to reading).

    I saw Popstar: Never Stop Popping...
    That's close enough for me.  Better music, for sure.

    Beastie Boys were awesome.  Paul's Boutique was absolute excellence.

    (I did like that Pop Star movie....so over the top stupid that it was hilarious)

    I just bought PB today at the record store.  The album artwork and music are their best.
    I wish I was a sacrifice, but somehow still lived on.

    Loved License to Ill in junior high, but that 3 album run from Paul’s Boutique -> Ill Communication was unreal, with Check Your Head being their masterpiece. 

    I lost interest around Hello Nasty, but they’ll always be one of my favorite acts; I can’t wait to see this movie.

    Well, I probably hate some music others love.  Nothing is for everyone.
    Very talented guys if you look at the journey they took.

    Love PB on the TT, with the cans on and volume way up.
