Beastie Boys calling you?

[JasonP]

Anyone notice that last tweet? "if your phone rings pick it up"?

[JoLovesMCA]

I just saw it... OMG are they just fucking with us lol.

[FLO MASTER]

my wifes divorce lawyer called me.

[taquitos]

you sure it wasnt actually mike d?

[The Ron]

This is no bullshit...I talked to Mike D two hours ago

[checkyourprez]

This is no bullshit...I talked to Mike D two hours ago

nooo waayyy.

[cj hood]

This is no bullshit...I talked to Mike D two hours ago

ron you know it's true.....mike d....is in love with you.

[The Ron]

Like I said...no bullshit. I'm sitting here at work and I get a call from Ian Rogers from Topspin Media saying he has Michael Diamond on the line. I called out BS right away because come on this isn't your ordinary phone call...but sure shit Mike D came on the phone and asked me why I bought the deluxe package and wanted to thank me!

[brooklyndust]

how did they get your number?

[Monsieur Decuts]

ha...that's awesome! now i can't remember if i put my phone number in my order

[JoLovesMCA]

Damn! That’s just fanfuckingtastic!!! Congrats to u! I got the deluxe too but I pray they don’t call me. I could not talk to Mike. I am too much of an emotional fan and I’d SPAZZ.

edit: I don't think I put my number so I think I'm safe.

[The Ron]

I put down my phone number when I ordered the deluxe deal.

It was crazy...if I would have been more prepared I would have had better things to say!!! I basically told him that the Beasties are the greatest of all time and I told him to say hi to the other boys for me. Of course I said that someday I hope to see them playing back here in the Twin Cities.

I could barley compose myself...I had goose bumps when I hung up. It's not everyday you talk to one of your idols.

[brooklyndust]

shit, I don't remember if I added my number or not. If they called I would definitely have "A Christmas Story Moment" like when Ralph finally gets to talk to Santa, and just comes of mental.

You sir have a cool name. The Ron...

[The Ron]

You sir have a cool name. The Ron...

Haha thx


Ian told me that he was going to post my conversation...not sure where though. I've looked at Topspin but couldn't find anything. I asked him if he could email it to me also so hopefully he comes through. lol

[dirtydan11]

You should have asked him when they are gonna mail them out haha. And then accuse him of forcing us to buy the CD on May 3 cause he knows that we can't wait lol, I know I will be for sure

[dirtydan11]

Haha thx

What area code was it?? That call would make my day/year/etc. I could see myself telling my grandkids the story everytime they visited me in the old folks home. Please call! My number's on the deluxe order, Ian!

[The Ron]

The area code was 310...Paramount, CA

Ian thanked me for answering. He said they called a bunch of people this morning but no one was picking up. I almost didn't answer, but THANK GOD I did!!! Fucking call of a lifetime!!

[FLO MASTER]

dam, i was in court today. I must have missed his call!

[Laver1969]

I got the call, too. But I was in a meeting at work. I just talked to Ian and he said if he calls back to make sure and pick it up. (y) Hahaha.

I DON'T WEAR CROCS
AND I DON'T WEAR SANDLES
THE PUMP DON'T WORK
CAUSE THE VANDLES
TOOK THE HANDLES



I love your siggy, HAD that lyric in my mind all weekend!

And I honestly can’t remember if I put my number in but my debit still shows pending but no missed calls so I don’t know. If I do see a 310 area code show up I don’t know what I’ll DO!

[bigfatlove06]

That's cool! Guess it is good they didn't call me, because I would have badgered Ian for more info on the 7" and the remixes. I actually sent Topspin an email asking a few questions about the deluxe release, and got this reply

Hey Michael ~

Unfortunately I don't have any of the information you're looking for. I would suggest trying to contact the Beastie Boys management directly or maybe try a message board. Sorry we couldn't be of more help.

Kind regards,

[Sir SkratchaLot]

Adrock keeps calling my house at like 3:30 a.m. and I think he's drunk or high or something. Not cool!

[checkyourprez]

man, am i glad they did not call me today.


i carry my phone with me all the time, i'm always playing with it in some form.


today i went to work without it by accident, forgetting it at home. i would have been fucking pissssssssed if they called and i missed it like that. now i just feel normal, because the chances of getting a call were slim to none anyways.


as weird as it sounds thanks for not calling boys!

[Darko]

Mike keeps calling and asking me to come build him a deck I think he thinks I'm Money Mark.

[Nerd Fight]

I found Ringo Starr at the foot of my bed last night.

[pshabi]

Man, this is some far out shit. I just checked my phone for missed calls. I had an "unknown" call from 12:30pm today that I missed, but nothing from the 310. It was probably just my mortgage company wondering when I was gonna pay my mortgage again.

Bank of America, if you're reading this....the answer is NEVER!!!!!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Did he asked if you wanted a deluxe package?

[Brother McDuff]

.

[Turchinator]

hey big spenders.

give a poor boy a call like me, Mike D.

who orders a shirt and CD package these days anyway?

[The Ron]

I'm definitely not a "big spender". I hesitated to buy it, but the deluxe package has too many damn goodies to pass up (IMO)

[Nerd Fight]

Did he asked if you wanted a deluxe package?

He proffered his own deluxe package, but I politely declined.

[Laver1969]

So I guess Ron is the only one we know of that actually talked with Mike. I got the call on Monday but was in a damn meeting.

Call baaack!!!

[fonky pizza]

Call me on my cell after midnight.......or send a fax!:D lol

[Kid Presentable]

Call me now, I'm wasting my life doing an assignment

[Matchstikk]

After the MSN MSG, I popped for the Deluxe Package.

I only wish they had an XXL option for us fat bastards who still dig the Beatsies.

Oh well. Can't wait to rock that shit Tuesday!
