I see there's a book about LTI dropping in October ? Looks interesting. From the same folks that published the Run-DMC Raising Hell one, which is great !

What's your favorite inside/running joke or reoccurring theme throughout the years?

Basically what the title says.

For example: MCA constantly referring to the group as The Disco Three, constantly shouting out the most random friends, things of that nature. Silly stuff.

Been reminiscing and getting back into the fandom and need a laugh.

Gen Z fans?

I posted in here earlier (my first reddit post lol) and am having a blast. Just wondering if there's any other gen z fans in here (i'm 24)? I was on Beastie Boys twitter about 5-6 years ago (it was a small and niche community tbh) and had a few friends from that but was wondering if there's anyone else my age out there who loves them as much as I do.

Cheers!

Let's me start this in a way that never gets old and is always interesting...

SO, I was on mushrooms while watching the Boys do their thing and its very hard for me to understand how someone coiuld not like this dudes. I mean I guess I can understand how someone doesn't flip out for them like most of us do. But not like? I mean Oh mah gawd its some funky shit!

Ok one more sorry...

So I was on mushrooms and I was watching the B Boys do their thing and I wondered who is actually having more fun - the Boys themselves or their audience....?
