She's been commenting on the Yauch facebook about her memories with him. She's really sweet and spiritual just like him.

And her here too where she was commenting about him..............

Seeing Yauch with his baby daughter is very sad, she's lost her Dad at such a young age. So tragic and unfair, at least she's old enough now to not forget him.

I'm still feeling the hurt after more than a week now, which as a 40 year old man has surprised me how much I've been affected, never got really upset over a celebrity death before. I guess normally us normal folk are quite detached from celebs but after 26 years of emotional investment in the Beastie Boys, they were never just a band to me, they've been far, far more. It really has been like losing a family member or close friend.

On a positive note I wore B-Boys tees to work (supposed to wear smart clothes but I thought fuck it, its my way of showing respect) last week and got several comments about Yauch passing and discovered several other fans who I never knew were fans! Had some good conversations, and got a few people to dig out their B-Boys albums for 1st time in a long time.

Anyways, as lots of people have said already the love and support demonstrated on these boards and in the community is incredible, much respect to y'all!

This past week has kicked my ass into gear and got me buying Beastie stuff I've been meaning to buy for a long time like the Ill Communication and Hello Nasty remastered editions (already got the other 2) and the Hot Sauce book/DVD/Blu-Ray.

Also bought this t-shirt on eBay which I think is pretty awesome...

Tee

hope the quality is good when it finally arrives.

I still can't afford those records but I've got that pic on the T as a poster on my wall
