Beastie Boys - Skills to Pay the Bills (Live @ Amsterdam)

[@BeastieBoys85]

I love how Mike D, and AdRock especially forget the lyrics and are talking about it before and during the song, yet they completely own the song! RIP MCA! Will miss that voice and smile of yours! :(

[@teenagetruck]

They totally didn't know where they were when the Rebel Without a Pause beat dropped but i think Mike D caught it and made Adrock hip.

I sing this in work every single day and my boss loves it. Literally word for word he said "keep up singing like that and youre getting a raise" lmao

[@w.holtgordonjr.6092]

Watching raw skill, they are the best hip hop group live ever the switching of the beats is historic and the boys adapt and it comes together like nothing ever seen or heard

[@HellaBlazedCat]

I love how they're helping each other out and re teaching how to perform an old song, it's amazing(:

[@CrayzMark]

1:16 what Petey Pablo sampled for Freek-A-Leek Beastie Boys definitely had the "Skills to Pay the Bills" and live performances 🎤🔥💯💯

[@howiejful]

That second verse is the most fucking awesome thing I have ever witnessed in my entire life

[@Jupiterocks]

master, piece.

[@creepy99]

Ad-rock looks like he just rolled out of bed... lol... and his dancing cracks me up. The beat @1:15+ is sick. Not a big fan of live music for most bands but I haven't been disappointed with any of the beastie stuff I've seen. Their lyrics not only crack me up but are smart and they flow so well... "Sellin' sex rhymes by the pound... horny MCs gather 'round..." @1:00... so nice...

[@wkeil1981]

Pure skill

[@tonystark341]

Mad skills

[@adaleeful]

he best for everrrrrrrrr

[@piggyalice]

AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!! JUST AWESOME.

[@AlienFriendly]

they play bigger venues.. have their own sound system.. a great new light show.. great crew making shows are perfect these days.. back in these days the live sound was just as good.. different and more raw.. but they would use house sound systems in venues they played.. i love the "crazy energy" too.. but i also love the production their show has become (:
