You are absolutely right McDuff. It is up to them to do whatever they want, whether that is doing their Beastie music or not. It would be like telling the Doors guys that are still living that they should never do a Doors song again. Sure it is different and seems kind of weird when compared to the complete group, but who else is going to play those songs as well as the guys that did them originally? They made their music and they love it. We are fans, but nobody loves the music more than the people that made it themselves. Why would they deny themselves that? That would be crazy to me.
I can still see the rest of the group getting together at some point and doing a tour to play the music. It will be different but it will still be cool for all the musicians involved as well as the fans. It might still be a while before it happens, but I can see it happening at some point. Who knows, maybe it won't happen, but I'm just saying, I won't be surprised if it does.
