glenefriedmanBEASTIE BOYS - ADAM HOROVITZ - My homie out west for the season. Sounds like their book is finally done and coming out in the fall, should be great (i.e. Grand Royal days = high expectations) looking forward to it and I should have some rare photos in there too. The King Ad Rock of Beastie Boys (and also my pick up softball game organizer/teammate/equipment manager). Here's a rare image you probably haven't seen before. We made it back in early 1985 i believe during the Beastie Boys first visit to L.A. While opening for Madonna's "Like a Virgin" tour. Over by KXLU after an insane interview. Look it up on line, on Adam Bomb’s FINAL COUNTDOWN radio show. Lots of great photographs made this day. (Some in the MY RULES book) #boombox #adrock #beastieboys #inspiration #humor #OldSchool #earlydays #adamhorovitz #beasties #hiphop #PUNK #DefJam #graffiti #gratitude #softball #thePressure #Book #BeastieBoys #Slowandlowthatisthetempo #itsthenewstyle #merryPranksters #RIPMCA

Re: Glen E Friedman IG post on the Book project
Not sure if this has been posted. But looks like we have an official release date in October. And it’s clocking in at 576 pages. Wonder if they’ll have any sort of book release hoopla?

I hope each era has the same amount of information dedicated to it and its not mainly about the licensed to ill era.

I'd be onboard if it was read by Biz Markie.

Re: Glen E Friedman IG post on the Book project
I wasn't even talking about who would do the reading. (Though I love where you guys are all going with that. I'm for Biz Mark). I was thinking it'll probably be an audio extravaganza. Snippets of samples and the music that inspired them. Guest appearances by the people who helped shape the history an sound of the band. Mike is currently producing a radio show, and was married to a filmmaker for a million years.
They have made a big deal saying it will be unlike any biography before... I'm just thinking outside the box here.

Glen's the reason this book isn't being delayed any longer.

"This souvenir is from when BEASTIE BOYS opened for MADONNA and i was hanging with them and showing them around LA for their first time there. It was an absolutely INSANE 3 or 4 days. Madonna was to receive her first gold record award after the show this evening. I was asked to get a photo of her with the Beasties, she was still so insecure at the time she would not even pose for a photo with her opening act (or anyone else for that matter), it was pretty lame, so we just went out into the audience during her show and made some photos with her in the background performing, and of course made tons of silly shots backstage with all the “stars” that came out to see, the new hot sensation, Madonna.... so we got pictures with Billy Idol, Gene Simmons, Rob Lowe, Sean Penn and David Lee Roth, Toni Basil, Weird Al Yankovic, all for an incredible goof. In the mean time as you may have heard, the Beasties were not greeted too nicely by the mostly tween girls who came out to see Madonna, but it was a building block for them. We had a blast. You’ll get to see the photos in the next book coming in about a year from now 😉 but of course you’ve seen other images from this first trip, with the Lincoln up in Malibu and around the Loyola Marymount Campus." |

Glen wanted to drop his book so the Beasties had to giddyup on their own. Book will focus on their best TOUR and era.
