The first concert I ever attended was the Together Forever Tour with The Beasties and Run-DMC at MSG ('86). I didn't see the Beasties again live until Lollapalooza at Randall's Island (what was that, '96? I can't remember). Then, tonight. Definitely a GREAT experience all around! I kept telling myself that I would see them on this tour because I probably wouldn't see them again... Now I'm not so sure! :D

Where have you seen them or if you can't remember, how many times?

I think we talked about this too, btw this is Sharon if you didnt see my other post :)

My first time seeing them was in 1997 at the Tibetan Freedom Concert. Then in 2001 for the New Yorkers Against Violence Concert. I would love to have seen them back in the 80s but I was too young to go myself.

The Beasties were one of the first groups I got into in the summer of '99 when I first really got into rock music. The first time i saw them was this summer at the y100 feztival and then I saw them again in VA on Friday night. I'm not stopping until I complete a list of songs that I've decided I have to hear live and not until I decide that I have had the perfect seats to see them.
