Elvis & the Beasties?

How the hell did this happen without me knowing about it:



Well, despite not being one of my favorite bands, this just goes to prove that the Beastie Boys are some of the coolest guys around.

Here's a link that explains why this was particularly significant.

Holy Crap! I didn't know about that, either! Thanks for posting it. I knew about the original "Radio Radio" performance but I had no idea about the team-up with the Beasties.

The Beastie Boys have become one of my favorite groups simply because they've been around for-freakinf-ever. I wasn't a big fan of their "Fight for your Right" stuff but their later music is the kind of thing that runs through my head pretty frequently.

And Elvis Costello always rules.

I actually saw that live, but because I was pretty young yet, I remember thinking, "Dammit! The Beasties were about to play something cool! Who's this old dude?"

The folly of youth...
