And that's not french I mean grammaticaly !

"I have some candy to eat you" ? or " I have some candy for you to eat" not really sure of what they mean

"J'ai des bonbons pour vous manger" or "j'ai des bonbons pour que vous mangez"

Mike D. likes French Wine and Coffee. I am sure that's why. ;)


France is not only about food and wine...In a interview, they were talking and jocking about the french bashing since the 11/09 and AdRock said something like "but we're not part of that bashing, we drank a lot of french wine"...like you know it would change something...or it would be something that warms our hearts...
You know, it's like I was saying: "Me, as french, looove America, I eat Mc Dornals and drink coca cola"... WTF?

It's no joke, people just think because they drink wine they do like french or interrsted in french culture...that is just a fact..the boys just illustrate it, joke or not... :)
And it is known that the beastie boys only like New York basically...

I don't know, I think the "media" preceives them a certain way. I always gathered they were interested in many different cultures. Yeah they love New York but their travels and experiences show that they enjoy a lot more.

oh and I was more talking about them than you...you actually did the joke...indeed, because this is actually what they keep saying...and I got it..
It's more that I think they do like the US, I mean New York, they just pretend to be interrested what's going on outside this city, but in reality I think they don't give a flying fuck...
you know like every new-yorker, they think they are in the center of the world, where everything happen, hype etc...and then everywhere else looks worst...and that means what it means !

Well New York brings all of those cultures together that they love so much. :):) I do see your point though and if its true then it's probably because it's their hometown and they are just proud of it. Mike is a wine fanatic and like myself, I am not joking when I say French wine is really damn good. But I get it, there is more to it. I wouldn't travel there just for the wine. It's a lovely country. :)

Because you think only New york brings all these cultures?...time has changed, also to say France is a lovely country you must have lived there a while did you ? you know what I mean, it's all cliché...New Yorkers they are too much in New York...and rate this city as the best while they know nothing from outside !

I have traveled there. I have traveled to a lot of countries. I am glad I do because I look at things differently when I get back home. But no haven’t lived there. One of my good friends lives there so I know a “little” through her.

But one thing I won't do is pretend I know more than you so trust me I understand what you're saying. ;)

Yeah and maybe you know more about the world than me actually...I don't know much about outside... I don't pretend to know the world at all, but at least I am aware of it, like you... But my real problem is not to know or not about a country , or about France, why should people be interrested in this country especialy...no, that's not my point...my point is I have the sensation that we all should feel like shit if we don't live in New York because "New York is the place to be" you know what I mean ?...And the Beastie Boys are part of the ones who almost say it...

:confused: I don't know for you but I don't understand how this thread has ended into being loved by the beastie boys or not or something like that...like it was a big deal
To me when I saw this thread "french and the beastie boys" I had a big sacarstic lol , that's it that's all !

That being said, I admit, I can be a little bit touchy when it comes to french reputation...

But keep making fun of other members guys, freedom of internet right ?;)

I'm done with your fucking insults, what the hell does it mean, "if it keeps you away from their families??!!" What families? Who cares?? You are fucking suggesting I am a stalker, a crazy fan!!! YOU SUCK!!!
Get this thing straight in your head, I am a musician and every connection I have with the Beasties are just an incredible chance, I met them by chance, they fucking bump into me! like any fan would give their arms to be so lucky. It's my music that brought that connection, sure not insanity such as yours.
Now, I don't want you to love me, but I sure don't want to be hated and disrespected by anyone, especially when I always been super cool and creative.

Now call your little friends, Dave and so on, you fucking cowards.
(n)(n)(n)(n)(n) The whole fucking cocktail service...GET THE IDEA??!?

Hey Beastie Boys, if you're reading this can you release Hot Sauce Committee Part 1 tomorrow so I dont have to read these message board fights from people who clearly have too much time on their hands... Time that could be spent listening to a super new Beastie Boys album?

Siiiiick story. Would be nice if people who met them could handle the privilege with some aplomb. Outside of the admins I think Thad is the most recent example of a humble, 'near-band' experience. Others just rant about special connections and laud it over people. It's ironic that even the most grounded band inspires such haughtiness.

But I'm not going to back-and-forth it; sorry for the remark.

Who are these others?

Because that's not me.
It really makes me sad to be so misunderstood.

Exaltation, happiness, energy turned into arrogance by wrong interpretation.

Internet stress and anger/frustration turned into disdainfulness.

That's what happens when there is no real interaction just post-interpretation.

It's cool for Thad anyway...but you know people are not all the same.

Being a musician myself I have an experience with people too you know and haughtiness is witnessed when someone apparently likes your band, not because they feel the music or care, it just makes them cool to be near you and in general they wish they were you and take your place, greedy of your power, in one word, losers.
Fortunately, there are few isolated cases. In general people come up to me after shows with shiny eyes and are super cool and supportive.
Since the interpretation is so wrong, I am wondering if me typing this is considered arrogance here....the world 's gone mad.

anyway, i accept the excuse of your remark.
