As my dad used to say, raining like cow piss on a flat rock.

He was a wwII vet, so maybe he picked it up in France?

Adam "MCA" Yauch died 13 years ago today.  August 8, 1964 - May 4, 2012. His is one of the few celebrity deaths I mark every year. Kurt Cobain might be the most iconic Gen X musician, but I maintain that the Beasties were the true voice of the entire generation.

I loved the Beasties and MCA turned into such a great human that is was extra tragic to lose him so young. Seems weird that was 13 years ago.  

I saw them twice, 20 years apart. In 1987, I saw them at small club on a the Licensed To Ill tour, their first headlining tour, with Fishbone or Murphys Law opening, which was fucking nuts. In 2007, they were at the Greek Theater in Berkeley, which isn't the biggest joint but still a very different experience.
