Tour starts Aug. 15 in Seattle??

[Laver1969]

If you follow the link on the main page on the Launch Artist. There is a contest you can enter to win a trip for the first tour date. If you read the "official rules" it says the trip is for the first tour date in Seattle on August 15.

It looks like we have a starting point! Hopefully we'll find out more cities and dates in the near future.

The HN North American tour started in Seattle too. I wonder if they'll follow a similar journey across the U.S. and Canada. You can see their HN tour schedule on the gigography section of www.beastiemania.com.

There's plenty of time to reschedule your plans for August so you don't miss the B Boys.

[djtah]

hell yea..... in starts in my home town again..... the in the round started here in 98.... :D :D

[paulb]

ok, maybe im not so fucked anymore... i am supposted to be in St. Louis from the 10th - 21st... but i might shorten my trip from the 10th-15th.. 16th is the concert... im 16... so, my parents will be pretty fuckin cool, if they let me come home early from a family vacation...

[GrooveholmeS]

I never seen the BBoys live, I wouldn't miss them for the world. I mean I would never let anything get in my way.

[Brother McDuff]

Someone in the Seattle area should start calling local venues and ask what acts are playing on that date. If it's not officially released yet, sometimes the venues will still let it slip a little. I've gotten the 411 that way a few times.

[erbsmokah]

Sweet, I was hoping they would be touring to promote this album. I can't wait to buy it! This is definately one group that I support by not downloading thier music.

I live in toronto and have been waiting for the beastie boys to return since... 2001?? When they were supposed to appear with Rage against the Machine.. :(

[heidiguns]

sweet!
gettin closer, im totally stoked!!!!

Not that I don't believe you, but got any proof?

[decktition]

Does anyone know if they are touring the Uk at any point?

[Laver1969]

Not that I don't believe you, but got any proof?

This could be completely true. Here in Chicago they are giving away 3 or 4 ipods everyday in June with TT5B and the Anthology loaded on it. And your name goes in a hat to win a trip to see the Beasties ANYWHERE in the world.

You have to be caller 101 when they play two Beastie songs in a row. I finally got through today but was only caller #95. Damn....so close.

[balohna]

Oh cool, I'm in Vancouver so then it would be the second tour stop (logically anyways, they might do it in some other crazy order)

[Loper]

Too frickin' cool! Haven't seen the three masters of the genre since way back on the Check Your Head tour, for which they came to the Seattle area twice. No way in hell I'm missing them this time....even if it is gonna be on the mother-parental's birthday. Kinda hopin they play an outdoor venue. The second stop here back in 1992 was at the Enfest Festival...had there been a roof, they woulda tore it off anyway so......

[FuzzyBeastie]

how much is the beastie's ticket price range for these things? wait, nevermind, that's a stupid question, because the venues control the price. but...what did you guys pay for your tickets in the past?

[dolemite dee]

hey my buddy showed me a link to a website called the vice it is a website bitching about "vices" wellllll....they interviewed the b -boys and were assholes to them(the vice), i love the beastie boys!!! they were saying some anti semantic remarks obviously about jewish people!! this is bullshit!! if you dont like them thats okay(nah, you suck,but everybody has their opinion!) but the fact that they are jewish has nothing to do with their new album! i hate racsism!! this is bullshit!!! it gets me very fired up, its like talikng about your family bad in front of you!!! i cant find the link or i would post it,but find it and post it here, i would like to see all of you guys speaking out on this bullshit piece of journalism!!fuck racsists!!!

[SNK of 404]

Before the whole 930 club thing, HFS also had a contest where you could win tickets to see the bboys anywhere in the world.

[vicious cycle]

I have a question.. do they usually come to texas..? or do they go past it like some other artists?
