Whenever the time comes for the the Beasties reemerge, Diamond is hoping to incorporate his experiences from this art show with the group. "It’s that kind of limitless possibility and execution that absolutely I would apply to a tour in the future," he says, having been very inspired by the visual artists' ability to do what is considered next to impossible."There’s a great freedom I got working with the artists here because artists really are in the business of executing things that anybody would tell them is not possible. That, to me, is a very big creative inspiration."

And if he has his way, those artists could very well be part of the Beasties' plans. "Having worked with some of these artists there are a lot of them that I would probably try to figure out applications to work with them on and collaborate with on different elements for tours in the future."

If I read this correctly and Mike is mentioning "Beastie's" future then Yauch has to be on the road to recovery. Thank you for posting this. :cool: Puts a smile on my face!

Carefully framed, but somewhat positive.

Definitely forward thinking in a positive way. Which is good!

But, not directly related to the Yauchingmeister. Dear MCA...I hope you're doin' well.
