the story about the answering machine message before Maestro is in there, but i thought that was already common knowledge...

Re: beastie book (spoilers)
 

the "look inside" feature on amazon reveals a good deal. had to stop myself. can tell right away its gonna be ill though, from the rare photos and chapter titles alone. very excited

Posted this in the other thread:

If you go to the link on the back of the book from the video they have a post with the Ad-Rock's Danceteria playlist: https://fabersocial.co.uk/2018/10/11...eria-playlist/

Also, if you're a huge geek like me and just can't wait for the book, you can adjust the speed of the video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2de-Gu0ekmg
by going into the playback settings. This slows the flipping of the pages and you can pause it to read the table of contents and a bit of the book too!

My only problem is going to be skipping to 2007 to start learning new things, and also reading about the final years. I’m sure the whole thing will be an interesting read with their inimitable style, though.

Re: beastie book (spoilers)
 

one can imagine there will be plenty of new stimulating anecdotes to enjoy from pre-2007

Sabotage as a traditional rap song was a decent wrinkle to a well-known yarn, to be fair.

For the record the Guardian / Observer excerpt posted above is fucking excellent.

Re: beastie book (spoilers)
 

That was amazing to listen to. Thank you for posting this.

Re: beastie book (spoilers)
 

Cheers Remy 👍 great find

Hard to complain with such a list that goes above and beyond but, in addition to Hurra, I find Mario C’s absence glaring.

Re: beastie book (spoilers)
 

I just tested up. This is so great.

Re: beastie book (spoilers)
 

Thanks for posting this, a great teaser. I'm freaking out this is going to be so awesome. Also pretty teary eyed listening to that. Can't wait for Tuesday, heading to Brooklyn from Toronto. Psyched!

Re: beastie book (spoilers)
 

I meant teared up, not tested up.

Re: beastie book (spoilers)
 

Great to see that audiobook list of contributors.
Not sure why Amy poehler has been the headlining contributor when there are so many more relevant and appropriate contributors than her .

Re: beastie book (spoilers)
 

Got the audio book. Thoroughly enjoying it.

Re: beastie book (spoilers)
 

Just downloaded it for free from audible. Gonna read and listen on my flight home from NYC show

Re: beastie book (spoilers)
 

its been fun hearing and seeing so much,

Leaning a few things. Guess I did not know it all

Re: beastie book (spoilers)
 

Im impatiently waiting for the KingsRoad merch official bboys store preorder to eventually come. I should have just walked in to a book store, I was hoping it would arrive the day the book came out. Also the book costs 32.00 on Amazon and Barnes and Noble, and the official store is 49.99, does that seem right?

Re: beastie book (spoilers)
 

Do I just read it or actually listen to it?
