I am a huge Beastie Boys fan, so naturally I have been really sad about the death of MCA (Adam Yauch), but seeing this on the marquee of Madison Square Garden in New York really brought it home, and it made me cry!
RIP Adam! Thank you so much for all the great music that has and will forever rock my world!

So sad to hear that Beastie Boys’ Adam Yauch (aka MCA) has died from cancer at age 47. I am old enough to have been around when the Beastie Boys first hit the scene in the 80s and I remember at the time hearing the samples they used in their music which lead me to “discover” bands such as Led Zeppelin. For that I am eternally grateful. I feel like a part of my childhood has been ripped away with his passing, but since death is unavoidable, let’s grieve and get on with the show. Thanks for all the great songs that I have loved for upwards of 20 years MCA! Rest in peace!
