“Camera phones SUCK”, from left to right Mike D, MCA, AdRock
We just got back from Beastie Boys in Long Beach, what a great show. They opened with Sure Shot and then another track from Ill Communication, lots of old and new stuff mixed in, and then for the close they played So What’cha Want and Ch-Check It Out. At this point Kelly and I started to make our way toward the exit so that we could be ahead of the crowd after the encore was over and what a good choice it was because just as we got to the main doors out of the Arena the B-Boys came back out on the balcony right over our heads in the stands with the fans for Intergalactic, it was awesome. I have to rank this show up there pretty high, right up there with Deftones and the first time I saw Tool.
So now its late (12:06), I just finished downloading XP with SP1a slipstreamed for use at work since I’m to lazy to slipstream the service packs on my own. I have to go and get my cholesterol check tomorrow morning, hopefully it will be down to somewhat of a normal range so that I don’t have to go on medication. Perhaps i will work out in the morning, one last time before my blood is taken again…….. maybe, it late now.

I almost forgot the best part of the concert. Mix Master Mike did a scorching intro and then they rolled out a little lit pavilion looking thing where the B-Boys with Money Mark where all dressed up in 70’s baby blue suits and had all of their instruments. They played Futterman’s Rule (Ill Communication), Something’s Got to Give (Check Your Head), and what i thought was I Don’t Know but I could be wrong about that one because I haven’t listened to Hello Nasty in a long time. Either way when the B-Boys jam they make some great tunes, and seeing AdRock on guitar with the Wha Wha and MCA on a stand-up bass was sweet.
