I saw them in 95 as well on the ill Communication tour. It was amazing.
I think I was 13 or 14.
Ill Communication is my 2nd fav Beastie Boys album

Did you like "Check Your Head"?I hated it from the moment it was released so I never listened to it for like 30 years but a couple years ago I decided to give it a listen on Spotify, figured I'd probably like it now since I appreciate several albums now that I didnt like back then
Nope, still hate its guts
Yep I'd Say Pauls is my first and Ill is my second followed by Check Your Head.Ill Communication is my 2nd fav Beastie Boys album
And now I'd like to pass the mic to Yauch...
Dude... tragic
Wouldn't mind seeing a Beastie Boys tour again. It was gut punch when he passed.
But in way I'm glad they won't be having to jump around and try to recreate their shows at 55 years old.

Yeah New Edition did a reunion tour a few years back and a few songs in Bobby Brown was huffing and puffing and just said fuck it and walked off the stage to catch his breath.

Give it another 20 years and those Phil Collins and Kenny Loggins cassettes you had everywhere are probably worth $200 a piece!I just bought a new record player this weekend lol. It's funny, I'm always impressed when I go into record stores and see all of the people half my age in there buying records.
Usually, they're buying new records though by newer artists and don't really care about the specifics of the pressing, the rarity, the nuance, etc. Which is fine, it's just good to see them buying them. I'm more old school in that I look for first and rare presses and very particular things when buying mine.
What really made me do a double take was when I was at the Public Market here and some dude had a booth set up, and was selling music, including cassettes. I had to ask and the dude was like yeah, kids are buying cassettes and walkmans now because of Stranger Things. WTF, one t.v show can bring back an entire form of media.

You're not wrong. The only thing cassettes may be collected for is their album art and compact packaging. And to show future generations how to rewind with a pencil!Unlike records, cassettes don't keep their sound quality. Vinyl will keep its quality forever if you don't let them get scratched.
Cassettes are garbage
I have to say, I like your style.
One of my girls has gotten into Beastie Boys and was wanting to listen to my CD's even though we have Spotify
I totally forgot I had hidden this inside the CD case almost 30 years ago. So many memories... $22 seemed like a lot back then... hahahaha
I was a poor Engineering student at CU, working as a server and sharing a 3 bedroom apartment with two other dudes. Driving a shitty 85 Honda Civic hatchback that would break a motor mount every 3-6 months. The guys at the small mechanic's shop would reweld it for me for a 12 pack of Coors Light. It took them about 10 minutes max.
I'd know the motor mount would break because a fuse would blow. I kept several spares in the glove box. I'd replace the fuse and usually it would last long enough until I made to the mechanic's shop, as long as I didn't hit any hard bumps.
I sold that car to a cook at the restaurant for $200.... when I upgraded to a 93' Honda Civic that cost my $3,000. My first financed car.
Yes, that silly concert ticket brought all of that back in a rush.
Gracias guapoI have to say, I like your style.
