Adam Yauch as Nathaniel Hörnblower, classic clip! RIP MCA

[@jenrockxoxo]

RIP Yauch. Thanks for keeping me stoked for so many years and for taking the time to write and send a postcard to your biggest fan when she was in highschool. I still have it 23 years later. :)

[@russellborrego1689]

Very cool! You don't have a pic/scan of it online anywhere, do you?

[@thedude4672]

The living members of the Beastie Boys can't perform as the Beastie Boys any more. They made a promise to Adam Yauch before he died that they wouldn't, because it's not the BB's without MCA.

[@jeaniebird999]

True friendship. Way to CONTINUE setting a great example as human beings, Beastie Boys! Thank you!

[@christopher399]

They can still perform though. Mike D performs Beastie Boys songs. It's just the music playing in the background and him rapping his parts... Meh. I'd love to see the two of them as a duo though. They are way too talented to stop.

[@boobybird89plays20]

Beastie Boys are like a machine made of three parts. With one part missing, it doesn't run like it should.

[@HOWYOUDOIN884]

And it's sooooooooooooooooo sad. I think they made some of the best music ever and did the funniest stuff interview-wise.

I'm lucky to have seen them in 1995 (the roots opened). My brother however, was the luckiest... he saw them open for Run DMC ('85, l think).
