As someone who lost a parent to cancer at a young age...very very sad.

As someone who doesn't care for their music but is married to a Beastie Boys fan who I'm going to be in a car with for 4+ hours this weekend and who played Whitney Houston music nonstop for a week following her death...very very unfortunate.

Likewise, it's been since about 1998 since I've really listedn to the B-Boys, but I foresee myself revisiting this weekend.

RIP. Lots of fun times listening to those guys over the years.

Yeah, haven't actively listened to these guys in quite a while, but this is a bummer. 

Was just talking to a friend, and we both came to the conclusion that we probably wouldn't' even be the same adults we are if not for how much of a role the Beasties played in our formative years.  Hell (and this is true)...I probably wouldn't have ultimately met my wife if not for a Beastie Boys show I saw a good five-six years before her and I met. 

Mega bummed.

licensed to ill was an incredibly formative album for me.  it was my first step on the road to punk.

and on a personal note, there's another band that i need to add to my should-have-seen-them-while-i-could-have list.

Saw their last show in the area at Ram's Head in 2009. MCA was off that night and you could sense he just couldn't give much, while Ad Rock and Mike D were trying to make up for it. I'm still glad I got to see them one last time. When they played "Sabotage" that was the most ferocious pit I'd seen in ages. They could do more than just rap. I'm very, very sad by this one. 47 is so damn young. I still listen to their stuff. "Paul's Boutique" could NEVER be released today. Can you believe how lucky we are that an LP basically steals 30 years' worth of R&B, funk, disco, classic rock and punk and turns it into something totally new? It still sounds amazing to my ears. RIP MCA.
