back in 86 i was 12 and the beastie boys were the greatest thing to happen to me since pac man fever. me and my homey jeff used to ride around our town on our sweet ten speeds reciting the whole licensed to ill album. i typically played the part of MCA, cause he was the bad ass one. jeff played adrock and we both switched up the mike d parts. to a 12 year old kid there was nothing cooler than hearing about partying, girls, porn and all around reckless debauchery. i wore that damn tape out at least 5 times, and i adorned my room with every beastie photo i could find, including a very sweet beasties/run dmc together forever tour poster. yeah, i was pretty damn cool even back then.this is a show from 5.14.87 in Cleveland. apparently there is some conflicting information on the date of this show, fyi. its a good sounding audience tape. its funny hearing the random “hey sit down asshole,” and ”I gotta take a leak” crowd comments.1. intro2. slow and low3. the new style4. she’s crafty5. time to get ill6. she’s on it7. paul revere8. rhymin and stealin9. posse in effect10. slow ride11. instrumental12. hold it now, hit it13. no sleep til brooklyn
