Adam Yauch Has Left The Building

[Beechwoods]

Adam Yauch, MCA from The Beastie Boys - only 47 and dead from cancer. Needless to say the Beastie Boys were massively influential on at least 2 generations of hip hop bands / rappers that followed them. Tight on record and fantastically loose live.

Unbelievable, I cant believe he is dead. I can't believe he was 47 either. Such a shame.

It is pretty unbelievable. I wasn't even aware he was ill. It's not like they'd lost their touch either. In many ways their best stuff came as they got older.

Think it's time to put Paul's Boutique on the old victrola.

I never knew he was ill either. :( Very sad.

You know when you here how old members of groups like Beastie Boys are 47, it makes you feel so old. It seems like only yesterday I was listening to them even though they were still popular.
