2013 Lineup Confirmation/Rumors Thread

[Bumblebee]

I'm surprised there haven't been any post MCA Beastie Boys featuring various artists rumors yet.... or did I miss that lump of pre-Christmas coal? Maybe 2014...

Beasties ended as a live act in 2009 and both surviving members seem to strictly respect his memory. Plus they're both loaded.

[WhyTheLongFace]

Yes. Since I know these peoples personalities and how they act on a dumb ass message board. My bad. Check grammatical errors before you start trying to take shots at people. Let's is a contraction for "let us". Nobody likes an illiterate fuck.

HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEY SEXY LAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAADIES

[gam3g3ni3]

And that shows exactly where your intelligence levels are. I am sorry you couldn't comprehend what he was speaking about in his lyrics because it was a little too deep for you. Keep listening to your Mackelmore and Aesop Rock since I am sure you have them in such categories of "Best MC's of all time".

Is that rant lyrics from a KRS-One song?

[MotorAve]

The fact you took his list seriously let's me know you're not the sharpest spoon in the drawer

What wasn't serious about it?

I forgot the Rappin' Duke

lulz. "Macklemore" is probably "deeper" than Kris Parker.

[Bumblebee]

I don't understand CoS's logic about green day being ruled out, they seem more likely sadly.

Thursday/Friday in Eastern Canada. So Friday/Saturday W1 are logically out.

Very "weak" headliner for Sunday night give the other big names floating around. A somewhat "lazy" booking.

They wouldn't open for a Stones with a 75 minute set.

Arena dates can be moved around, where as insurance companies/promoters might be hesitant on a pair of fixed weekends.

Yeah, it'd probably take years to legally get any kind of Beastie Boys with various acts show going, and tons of time working it out too, but I'd definitely like to see that before some forty year old washup reunion. Hopefully the Beastie Boys haven't hung up their hats just yet.

Why would the other 2 members WANT to do anything on the live front? It's totally unclear how much archival material(I suspect the released stuff was only the tip of the iceberg) they have hidden away if the goal is to keep their name/legacy active.

[Zafocaine]

Have you seen their live act? Pretty electric. Look at it this way. Would MJA and RSW stop trolling the boards ceaselessly if Drewski suddenly had a fatal stroke? No chance in hell. I'm just hoping Mike D/ Ad-Rock/ MMM will still take the stage in some form together. If they do take the stage, I find it hard to believe they would play specifically non-Beastie songs when they could easily mix it up with special guests.

[Zafocaine]

I mean... have you ever done something for thirty years, then tried for some reason to stop? That should be why enough for you in itself.

[Spooks]

The RZA better than GZA? You're crazy.

1. Rakim
2. KRS One
3. Kool G Rap
4. Nas
5. Andre 3000

I would include Big L

[suprefan]

wat is the possibility of daft punk?

Same as you getting laid tonight.

[paulb]

Confirmed according to Monklish.

I hope they play live as well. It just won't be called "Beastie Boys" without a charity angle or very creative billing. RUNDMC members aren't flush so they have different motivations.

BB didn't "tour" for 30 years. They did 1 full tour in the final decade of Adam's life.

[AeroplaneJunkie]

Andre 3000
Notorious BIG
Nas
Jay-Z
DOOM

if we're talking top 5 MCs

wtf? didnt tour?

[Zafocaine]

Unless you're the Grateful Dead, music doesn't specifically revolve around touring. Playing music is something you can avoid for months at a time, at best, but it always comes back to you. I look forward to seeing where they take the act.

[alec111]

I had a dream that Usher, Arcade Fire, and The Rolling Stones are headlining... Bad sign?

[Neighborhood Creep]

hahaha

I would include Big L

It's too bad Jay-Z got him killed

[tlynott]

I would include Big L

Big L is right there. I could easily switch him and Andre...

[Bumblebee]

After the 90's, the BBs did 1 full tour.

[Zafocaine]

Good sign. It was only a dream. Welcome back to the waking world

[Spooks]

.......and the fact he has KRS-One as his #2, who could easily be argued as the worst MC ever.

The worst? Please. This is probably one of the most sampled songs in rap history. Some kids

[bmack86]

Woof. You guys. Stop huffing markers for a bit, it's affecting your basic thinking skills.

Beastie Boys toured in 2004 and 2005 for To The 5 Boroughs and from May - September 2007 for The Mix Up, Get Out and Vote tour in 08, and a shit ton of planed dates for 2009....

Bumblebee you're wrong on this one. I might not be the biggest Beastie fan but I sure loved them. So much actually that I skipped Daft Punk Brooklyn show for Beastie's first Brooklyn show. I think I made the right choice

ps Paul, do you remember when Beasties were supposed to go on tour with Rage in 2000? Ah good memories

[heart cooks brain]

Mccarren par pool is my my fave.

[MotorAve]

Their show wasn't as good as Sonic Youth/YYYs, but it was a good time.
