Re: Adam Yauch - 1964-2012
 

I can see how some people might think she’s arrogant, but if she was important to Adam then I am sure she had to be a pretty good person. I don’t know her either. To me she’s just somebody nice from his past sharing some of her memories with/about him. I guess not everybody is going to be interested in what she has to say and that’s cool. ;)

Oh and about that photo. I am sure one day I’ll get it. I’m the PHOTO QUEEN!!!!!!!

Check these new photos of Adam that I just added to the gallery. Aren’t they lovely?

Man, I love him.

Re: Adam Yauch - 1964-2012
 

it's on her front page
http://marinachavez.com/

maybe you can contact her...

regarding the Everlast and HOP posts, I hate to keep harping on this- that was a SATIRE ARTICLE.

Everlast never said those things about Adam.

it was meant to honor and respect the awesomeness that is MCA while kind of exposing others as never being able to hold a candle to someone like Yauch.

Re: Adam Yauch - 1964-2012
 

Well, I'm sure glad you clear it up. I didn't know it was a satire, since I don't know the site, and since English is not my native tongue, I often fail to read between english written lines:rolleyes:.

Fiou, I was pissed, sorry I could not believe someone could say something like that...I guess he did not :o.

RIP MCA

Found this quote from Mario C, to NME this week, regarding the boys' final recording session:

Re: Adam Yauch - 1964-2012
 

RIP MCA :( Thankyou for the music

Re: Adam Yauch - 1964-2012
 

All that photos, covers, honours or something bring me back to the beginning ...bass guitar, voice or remix...one love-pure love :(

Re: Adam Yauch - 1964-2012
 

I just wanted to pay my respects to Adam. A beautiful man taken from us far too early. As a fan I feel a sense of loss but I know that is nothing to the pain his friends and family are going through or have been through these past few years.

"Everywhere she dies.
Everywhere I go she dies.
No sunrise, no city square, no lurking beautiful mountain but has her death in it.

The silence of her dying sounds through the carousel of language,
it's a web on which laughter stitches itself.
How can my hand clasp another's when between them is that thick death, that intolerable distance?
She grieves for my grief.
Dying, she tells me that bird dives from the sun, that fish leaps into it.
No crocus is carved more gently than the way her dying shapes my mind.

But I hear, too, the other words, black words that make the sound of soundlessness,
that name the nowhere she is continuously going into.
Ever since she died she can't stop dying.
She makes me her elegy. I am a walking masterpiece, a true fiction of the ugliness of death.
I am her sad music."

by Norman MacCaig

rest in peace Adam and I hope with all my heart your family and friends can in time find some way through their grief and pain.

Re: Adam Yauch - 1964-2012
 

this must be such a sad day for yauch's daughter

Re: Adam Yauch - 1964-2012
 

I've been thinking about Adam all day this Father's Day as well, for his daughter's sake and his own Dad as well who lost his only child...

Re: Adam Yauch - 1964-2012
 

I've thought about Losel often today. My mom died at 47 also. The absolute hardest day for me was the first mother's day after she passed. I just remember it physically hurting to breath. I've been praying for Adam's family since his passing but especially for his baby girl today.

Re: TMZ : "YAUCH DEAD"
 

I noticed that too!;)

Re: Adam Yauch - 1964-2012
 

Guys,

My name is Sid from UK independent brand Retreat. I guess like you all here i am a massive fan of The beasties. ever since my cousin handed me down the cassette of Licensed to Ill back in approx 1988 when I was 13.

They influenced both myself, my wife and my friends when we were growing up.

Check Your Head was my generations SGT Peppers. No one did it like them.

I was utterly shocked when Adam passed away as I always just thought they would be around throughout my life, or until I was old and grey.

As much as I am a fan I never considered releasing a t-shirt design of the boys until approx 3 weeks before Adam passed away.

I created a subtle custom pocket t-shirt design featuring the inlay from Paul's Boutique. These haven't been completed yet as I began on focusing a tribut tee which I finally completed a few weeks back.

The "NEW YAUCH CITY" design has proved to be a huge success.
I decided I was going to donate all profits to both Milarepa and tibetfund.org which is based out of NYC

The idea was to print off 100 tees and to my amazement most of these have SOLD OUT on pre-orders alone yesterday.

I plan on re-printing another batch in a few weeks as this is for such a good cause I figured why not.

Please take a look at the design, they retail at £20 UK pounds
if you like it and want to support two amazing charities please email me at
info@retreatstore.com


Here is a link to my design honouring Adam Yauch

Much appreciated

I don't think this has been posted yet...

A wonderful article about MCA and Maurice Sendak (author of Where The Wild Things Are who passed away a few days after MCA).
http://bumslogic.wordpress.com/2012/...ie-things-are/

And the new Q issue has a tribute (obituary?). I don't have the issue, just saw a preview online, but hopefully I'll pick it up soon and I scan it. It takes a while for imports to get here though.

Driving around over the weekend listening to Groove Holmes Live vs The Biz, I got halfway through the thought "They should do a live jam like this with Biz again" before reality smacked me - shit.
First time for that. Hopefully the last, but I doubt it.

"I kick you in the ass, that's why you jump around"

Re: Adam Yauch - 1964-2012
 

It's not much but Billy Corgan did mention Yauch again in a new interview.

Q. Before we get into the new album and everything, Adam Yauch's death hit me pretty hard being a big Beastie Boys fan. I know you knew him -- can you share some words on MCA?
A. I certainly don't want to play myself off as a friend, but I did intersect with him, and we had good conversations. We talked about spiritual matters: Tibet and just more pragmatic spirituality. He was a humble, soulful person and I was surprised by that. We all get caught up in that. In rock and roll, you rarely meet truly soulful people. He was very truly one of them.

Re: Adam Yauch - 1964-2012
 

Enjoyed reading this about MCA by somebody at Fuse TV. Made me smile thinking about how those three might have been interacting while he was sick. And it made me sad too. :/

Re: Adam Yauch - 1964-2012
 

The first four words of that article nearly ended me.

Re: Adam Yauch - 1964-2012
 

I know. And the worst thing about it is that you can paint a picture in your mind and literally just see it all ending... :(

Re: Adam Yauch - 1964-2012
 

Shit.............shouldn't have read that at work. Well written and very emotional to read. RIP MCA

Re: Adam Yauch - 1964-2012
 

I know............ :(

Where is pollyblogstew? I know it's in german... but I always enjoyed checking other Beastie sites. Are all of the sites going to die out now???? :(:(:(

This is so depressing.

Re: Adam Yauch - 1964-2012
 

Saw this today. A few lines made me chuckle. Seems a little late to write a piece about MCA, but whatever. I will take it.

Beautiful! I loved it. It's never too late!!!

Re: Adam Yauch - 1964-2012
 

that was rough. and beautiful. i have visions/daydreams/call-them-what-you-will of how i imagine the boys are at various times and it's nice to see someone express that so poignantly. and be reminded that i'm not nuts.

Re: Adam Yauch - 1964-2012
 

Well I just fucked up and listened to I Don't Know.
