nice find. Reminds me of the Live from new york, 25 years of snl book.

good read. for a history we've all read a million and one times, it's still worth checking out, some new accounts. (y)

I am curious though what this quote from Adrock is supposed to mean (or if it's just taken out of context):

"Horovitz: At the time [of 5 Boroughs], our usual stupid shit wasn’t that funny. "

[JoLovesMCA]

I don't know what Horovitz is talking about, perhaps they look back on it and feel some of it could have been better?

I gotta say though I could get use to seeing them in the news all of the time like this. Feels really nice!

That was a great article. The best I've read on them in the last few years, easily. The Molly Ringwald stuff was real good, and the Rubin/DMC/Cohen stuff was great too.

Bravo on the find, Corey.

Also, it breaks my fuckin heart that Yauch still has to deal with this cancer bullshit. Hopefully he'll have it TKO'd soon.
