Beastie Boys at Live Earth

The Beastie Boys rocked Central Park on Wednesday night.

Mike D said,

“We’re like Diana Ross, Elton John and Paul Simon all in one.”

The Beastie Boys were promoting their new album “The Mix-Up” in New York City, the hometown of the ground breaking white rap group.

The heat was crazy and the boys performed in suit and ties. But that didn’t stop their energy or compromise their outlandishness.

They played for 105-minutes, which had to be cut short due to a park curfew. The crowd ate it up and were begging for more.

The Beastie’s rocked “Brass Monkey,” “No Sleep Till Brooklyn,” “Remote Control,” “Tough Guy” and “Pass the Mic.” I wish I wasn’t on the left coast.

They saved “Sabotage” for the final encore, and fans had wished that there wasn’t a curfew in effect.

I have long been a fan of the Beasties and SO WISH that I was a New Yorker so I could have been there to get my funk on. But for those of you who got to attend the performance I am forever jealous, as they are one of the few bands I have never gotten to see live.
