My first indoor concert was The Beastie Boys on the check your head tour. I was 17 and my aunt drove me and my cousin to the concert. Funny moment during the show : the Beasties looked down in the audience and asked people what the time was. Some guys on the first row started sticking up their arms to show their wristwatches, but it was of course TIME TO GET ILL.
anyway, after the show the crowd dispersed and we were waiting for my aunt to pick us up, when MCA and mike D swung out the front door. They walked up to us and my cousin gave them a high five, so I fucking had to do that too of course. Mike D ran in the chinese restaurant across the street, MCA hung around to sign autographs and babble with us and some other kids who accidentally were still there also. Some kid had a licensed to ill era t-shirt, that had a picture of the Boys in full beerspray vibe from that video above, that MCA was staring at in amazement. Ad rock came out also and joined, mike D came back from the chinese place, and the three of them headed into the city. They turned around and beckoned us to come with them, some kids followed of course, but since we're a couple of stupid douchebags we decided NOT to go hang with the beastie boys, but wait for my aunt instead to drive us safely home and into our beds where little idiots like us belong.

I liked him because he always seemed like the nicest and most calm one. The other two always seemed kind of neurotic and drugged up all the time.

The beastie boys weren't just good because they were white or jewish or whatever, they were legitmately good MCs and musicians. It was not hype.

Been watching interviews and live footage of their for the past hour. I'm reminded of how when we were in high school and college, 92 - 2001, every single thing that came out of their mouths was cool. Lyrics, statements, jokes, interview responses... Every time you saw of heard something from them for the first time it was just cool. I remember obsessing over how awesome it woul have been to have gotten a tour of NYC from them and have a glimpse of their lives and places they went and stuff they did. I'd never been to NYC and bands like them and Sonic Youth made us look upon it from far away in the Fort Worth Texas suburbs like New York was a mythical place where everything was newer and cooler than anywhere else, and totally untouchable to us.

Not do get even more down than we are about this, but I can't imaging coming to grips with knowing death from something like cancer was inevitable. I thought a lot about that after Hillman Curtis died. I'm a pretty strong person, but also one that often wears my heart on my sleeve and can get kind of emotional about memories, dreams, etc. It's hard enough to realize I can't live forever and keep my fingers crossed that I'll live to some ripe old age or something.
But I can't fathom what it must be like to realize you're on that descent - especially too young in life. To even try to comprehend that just shuts my mind down and makes me feel like I've got tunnel vision and can't even hear anything around me. Last summer I had some stomach issues that required a CT Scan and blood tests, and my mom immediately got all worried that I was getting colon cancer because it runs in her family (how's that for motherly support and confidence?). Turns out I was just full of shit - literally - and just needed something to help me poop and I'd been backed up for days. Thought I had appendicitis. But that simple fear that something serious might be wrong, man, it was heavy. I don't know how people do it - dealing with the inevitable from cancer, especially when they're young and they're going to die too soon in life.
