new 'tours'

[dave790]

Not for me. I think the book release and tour represents some real closure for Mike and Adam as well as the fans. Also, and this may seem sacrilege, but I’m not particularly fussed about unreleased 90s material. always felt CYH and IC (+ bsides) were the strongest representation of those years jamming at G-Son. I almost don’t want to know about the endless hours of jamming behind ithose albums, although I admit it holds some interest. People used to talk about the vault, especially in regards to HN, but I can’t help but the feel that the HN reissue bonus disc represents the sort of material excised. And, 95% of the time, it’s dispensable.

What I am far more interested in is the unreleased HSC material / part one (or the material originally slated for part two). These are fully formed tracks! And from something of a late golden era for the boys.

agreed. i wouldnt hold my breath for any sort of touring in the future. they arent the types to re-tread old ideas, and more talk-based engagements for a slew of material that they've already deemed unworthy for release to begin with seems like a hell of a stretch. and frankly a bit self-indulgent, which is also a characteristic not typically attributed to them.

i think performing music under the beastie brand is a complete wrap at this stage. i think we'd be more likely to see them undertake a duo project if anything, and that would assuredly be under a new banner altogether. im not counting on that scenario very much either though.

based on the book tour i can totally see this and it would smash. these guys very obviously love each other and doing this, and even without yauch from interview 1 on Strombo or whatever to what i witnessed monday night...they very quickly slipped right back into form over the past few months.

I want to hear the unreleased track, "The Jerry Lewis". It was recorded during the Paul's Boutique years.

Anything recorded in the 80's, I want to hear.

I want to hear the HSC stuff, Yauch’s acoustic Big Fat Love cover and the live rave-olution remixes of the HN hip hop cuts. And Sabotage as a traditional rap song. Pretty much the companion piece to (and thus containing the rarities referenced therein) the book.

Jerry Lewis lyrics were unearthed during the book show setups.

What were they like?

I’d love it if MCA over Bonzo’s Montreaux was recorded.

After the last couple months, seeing them do the press tour for the book, gearing up for the tour, and doing the tour, I could totally see them doing something more together. They have really been missed. Like others have said, maybe not under the Beastie Boys name, but as a duo.

Personally I'd be most hyped to hear stuff from the HSC sessions, and I think (hope) someday we will. And if they enjoy working together, which the book tour has shown us that they do, I think that they'll be creative together again, whatever that may mean. It could be music, shows, a play, more books, TV shows or movies...who knows.

I don’t care what they do but they definitely need to do something together. I could totally see them doing a talk show maybe on satellite radio.. They are very entertaining.

Just seeing them together, having fun and being themselves puts a huge smile on my face.

They could possibly tour again with the other musicians they had in their band. They are musicians. It is what they do. They just wouldn't be able to do a lot of rhyming, unless it was just a couple select songs.

A lot of people have done things like this. It wouldn't really surprise me.

I agree with all of that word for word
