"Open letter to the Beastie Boys"…

Beastie Boys, ça fait 15 ans que je vous écoute;
15 ans sans jamais vous voir en spectacle!
Pour toutes sortes de raisons, je vous ai toujours manqués…
Je m’étais juré de vous voir avant d’avoir 30 ans :
C’est fait! Le show d’hier soir à Montréal était incroyable!
Mike D, Ad-Rock, MCA et Mixmaster Mike : MERCI!!!

Alright, I know your French is really bad (even if you said last night your English was not quite better…), so that’s all I’ll write in my own language.

Boys, that show last night in Montreal was so hot! You rock!!! But I would also like to thank you for one more thing. You know, since November 2nd, it’s easy to think that Americans are just a bunch of dumbasses that reelected George “War” Bush. I know there’s Michael Moore, you and Bruce Springsteen, and I’ve also read the lyrics of “To the 5 boroughs” songs… But, damn! After all he did in the last 4 years, how can Americans still want him as their president? Don’t they listen to your music or watch Michael Moore’s movies?

Anyway, you know what? Maybe it’s the energy that was there last night at the Bell Center, the smoke that was floating in the air during the show or the fact that after listening to your music for the last 15 years I finally saw you live for the 1st time… but now I know that turning my hate of Bush against Americans would be the dumbest thing to do. The way you ended the show by dedicating “Sabotage” to that idiot made it clear in my mind: we’re on the same side.

Once again: “C’était un crisse de bon show!!!”
Merci Beastie Boys!

That is all so true!!!

The dedication for Sabotage was something! And it was sad to see that after all that's been said about Mr. Bush, from the BBoys and everybody else, didn't made it's way...

But, there's a bright side of this...
maybe another album more politically engaged...

BBoys, je vous aimes..

Vous êtes bien chanceux d'avoir assisté au show hier...
J'ai acheté mes billets trop vite pour Ottawa....

Mais bon, je les ai vu 3 fois à Montréal... On va voir ce que les ontariens ont dans le ventre :D
C'est cool que vous vous êtes bien amusé !

On vous aimes Beastie Boys !!!!
