Adam Yauch - 1964-2012

[frank1271]

i heard the news at work today and went into the bathroom to cry for a while,this is the biggest loss to me ever.he was such an amazing human and just an all around fun guy. it got esspecially hard for me when i was on my way home crying when i get a text from my son who is 11 and a huge beastie fan,saying that they were playing the boys on the radio on his school bus,not knowing that he had passed when he came home and saw me in the bed crying and i told him he gave me a huge hug and told me that Adam was in heaven now and not suffering anymore. I WILL ALWAYS MISS YOU MCA,THANKS FOR ALL THE AMAZING WORK YOUVE DONE.

Beautiful man, may he rest in peace.

I think we're all pretty numb, but sending vibes to his family and of course, Adam and Mike. I can't believe this.

A Year and a Day.

I just got enough strength to post something on here. As I'm shaking writing this, i don't expect anyone to read my thoughts, and what I'm about to write, i say this because there is over 100 comments on here already, but i feel like i need to get this off my chest.
Numb, isn't a strong enough word of how i felt today.
Devastated, isn't a strong enough word of what i went through today.
The list can go on and on, but to be brutally honest, I HAVE NEVER felt the way i did today. I was in complete and utter shock, i mean words cant even describe. I cried so much i threw up, i went insane, and i still think its a nightmare. I KNOW he's not in pain anymore, which is wonderful. It hurts me to know that he was suffering, i didnt know he's condition was THAT bad, i heard rumors, but to tell you the truth, i never though anything negative about the beasties, i always just had positive vibes.. But i was (and will be) emotionally and physically in pain from today. It came out of NOWHERE, i heard about it in my 3rd period class, and i nearly fainted. i was a WRECK. and i didnt care, i was BAWLING, i feel to the floor, and i could give two fucks of who was watching me and what they thought. I've never felt so weak. So many things were rushing through my head, and i could have done something today....but I'm not going to get in to that.
I cant imagine what Yauchs parents, daughter, wife, and 2 brothers/best friends are going through, i truly cant.
Today marked the most tragic experience in my life. I lost someone that i truly loved with all my heart. Nobody will understand what i went through today. Adam Nathanial Yauch was not only my idol, but someone that i respected and he honestly CHANGED MY LIFE. As many said the same thing, it means more to me. I'm still and will be for a while emotionally and physically in pain, but as much as it has broken my heart, i still want to have positive thoughts, as he had a wonderful life. I don't care what anyone thinks, i am and always will be Beastie Boys #1fan.
He's not in pain anymore.


im in loss of words, im completely shocked. i could go on and on, but all i know is that he meant the world to me.

I am here for you girl. Anything you need.

My 3 year old walking in while I'm
watching Awesome I shot that in tribute (I was there that night) and saying "I like this" makes it better and just shows the lasting impact the bboys and mca have. It just brings warmth to my heart and, unfortunately, tears to my eyes.

My thoughts are with adam's family, mike d and adrock and everyone who is friend, family and fan...way too soon.

Thanks Jo. That means a lot

I still would like to hear Adrock and Mike's comments on this. I know we got an official statement from the band, but I would really like to hear them say something in their own words. It probably won't happen today or tomorrow or even a week from now, though.

Also, I'm guessing there won't be some sort of public memorial for him. I get the feeling his family would rather do this privately 100%.
