Yo fellas, super stoked for Hot Sauce Committee to drop! Just wondering, with all the rhymes dropped over the years regarding sharp cheddar, muenster, gorgonzola, provolone, etc...would you ever consider getting into the cheese game?

You guys seem to have a lot of raps about food in general, have you ever considered yourselves long lost brothers to Wierd Al? Or do you draw inspiration from him or is it vice-versa? Thanks!

What is the appropriate attire for a woman to wear to a Beastie Boys show? My man wears black tie to your shows but I'm never quite sure what to wear.

For Nathaniel specifically: will you please, please consider putting out a book of all the photos you've taken over the years? For real, there's not too many photo books of the Beasties, and that suggestion would solve this problem! Cheers~

1) Where did you get the inspiration for the music/lyrics on your upcoming album? 2) Are there any solos in addition to the collaborations? 3) What made you change the name of the album from Tadlock's Glasses to Hot Sauce Committee? 4) How do all three of you stay so incredibly handsome and irresistible?! :)

Hey Fly Guys. Curious about the period between The Anthology & TT5B/Opening Oscilloscope...what were y'all doing & why the long layoff? I can understand that 9/11 changed everything. Was that a factor or did you guys just need some off time?

I remember you guys mentioning a collabo with Grandmaster Caz that was unfinished in an Ill Communication era interview... what's the story behind that? Not sure why it wasn't ever brought up by other journalists - just the idea of it is crazy. Thanks for all the inspiration.

Have you guys picked up your samplers again or using Reason for the new album. Also it sounds like in the instro you guys e mailed a little while back that the beat was sampled from live stuff a la The Mix Up. Do you have lots of live stuff of yours you are sampling for the new album?
Also please do another collabo with MADLIB.

Paul Revere and High Plains Drifter and few more on Paul's Boutique seem to be the only songs that tell a story. Was there specific inspirations for these stories and will there be any storytelling on the new album?

Dre or LL COOL J could be argued i guess) is there a time you have set that you will hang up the mics? 15 years from now will we be talking about you guys being 50 or 60 years old still rockin' the house? nobody has really ever done what you guys are doing.

Would you guys ever consider doing what Pearl Jam did for their 2000 Binaural Tour, where they recorded and released soundboard recordings from all of their shows? As an avid collector and attendee of BBoy concerts, I'd love to have this option of a "season pass"!
Hell, you don't even need to press CDs/etc, just use TopSpin and sell access to downloads like you did for Paul's and Check Your Head!
Posted by Campbeln at 2:15 AM | 18/06/2009 | Report Abuse
Just a follow-up to my "season pass" question:
Fans can go to Pearljam.com and purchase streaming downloads or burn-to-order CDs of each of the band's performances during its 2008 concert tour, which launched last week in Florida. Internap is overseeing the audio streaming.
Common BBoys! I want a season pass!
