>> James: WELCOME BACK, WE ARE
JOINED BY TWO MEMBERS OF THE ONE
OF THE MOST INFLUENTIAL HIP-HOP
GROUPS IN MUSIC HISTORY.
THEIR NEW MOVIE BEASTIE BOYS
STORY IS OUT FRIDAY ON APPLE TV.
PLEASE WELCOME BEASTIE BOYS
MICHAEL DIAMOND AND ADAM
HOROVITZ.
THANK YOU SO SCH FOR BEING HERE.
>> HI.
>> James: I'M WELL, REALLY
EXCITED TO TALK TO YOU.
NOW THE FILM IS COMPLETELY
BRILLIANT.
I HAVE NEVER QUITE SEEN A
DOCUMENTARY LIKE IT.
IT IS PART COMEDY SHOW, PART
ALMOST TED TALK.
YOU CAN EXPLAIN TO PEOPLE WHAT
THE MOVIE IS AND HOW IT CAME
ABOUT.
>> WE STARTED, FIRST WE HAD A
BOOK CALLED BEASTIE BOYS BOOK.
AM DON'T HATE US, WE ARE NOT THE
MOST IMAGINATIVE TITLE BUT IT
WORKS.
AND THAT WAS COMING OUT AND WE
WANTED, INSTEAD OF JUST GOING
AND SHOWING UP IN BLAZERS WITH
LIKE SUEDE PATCHES ON THE
ELBOWS, WE DECIDED WE WOULD PUT
ON A SHOW FOR THE CHILDREN AS WE
ARE APT TO DO AND WE GOT
TOGETHER WITH SIEK JONES THE I
LOSE TRUCE WRITER AND DIRECTOR,
AND WE Z WERE,ING HE TRIED STO
TAKE OUR BOOK 500 AND SOMETHING
PAGES AND MAKE IT WORK ON STAGE,
IN LIKE CONDENSE IT DOWN TO A
TWO HOUR SHOW.
AND IT ACTUALLY, I DON'T KNOW,
IT WAS DIFFERENT FOR US AND IT
WAS CHALLENGING BUT WE HAD FUN
AND THE AUDIENCES, EVEN JUST
DIFFERENT CITIES THAT WE DID IT,
IT WAS REALLY FUN.
BUT WE DIDN'T FILM IT.
SO WE REALIZED AFTERWARDS, WE
GOT TOGETHER WITH SPIKE AND
REALIZED WE SHOULD DO THIS.
AND DO IT PROPERLY.
AND FILM IF.
SO WE SPENT MONTH FP WRITING IT
WITH SPIKE.
AND OF COURSE IT TURNED OUT TO
REALLY DO IT PROPERLY WE SHOULD
HAVE PROBABLY SPENT ANOTHER YEAR
REHEARSING THIS THING AND ALL OF
THIS STUFF.
BUT WE DID LIKE WHAT YOU ARE
SUPPOSED TO DO NAY YEAR PROBABLY
IN LIKE THREE MONTHS.
>> James: NOW THE LAST TIME
YOU PERFORMED WAS IN 2009 AT
BONNAROO.
DO YOU MIWS PERFORMING?
AND TOURING ON THAT SCALE?
IT ARE THERE MOMENTSES IN YOUR
DAY WHERE YOU THINK OH MAN, I
MISS THAT FEELING.
>> IT IS DIFFERENT INTERESTING
GO TO [BLEEP] VONS.
>> YEAH.
>> James: DIFFERENT THAN GOING
TO VONS FOR SURE, THAT IS WHAT I
MEAN.
WHEN ARE YOU IN VON ARE YOU
LIKE.
>> YEAH, I'M THAT GUY FROM
BEASTIE BOYS, YOU DON'T KNOW.
>> NO.
>> NO, OKAY.
>> I AM GOING TO BUY THIS CELERY
NOW.
>> LIKE IF THE CASHIER AT VONS,
BE LIKE YOU KNOW, ARE YOU THE
GUY FROM BEASTIE BOYS, YOU ARE
LIKE YEAH, AND THEY GIVE YOU
EXTRA COUPON OR ANYTHING.
>> THE LADY AT VONS HOOKED ME UP
WITH [BLEEP] COLOR O WIPES.
>> James: WOW.
THAT IS THE BIGGEST PURCHASE YOU
CAN GET RIGHT NOW.
>> MIKE, YOU DIDN'T KNOW BEASTIE
BOYS, I WAS JUST BEING NICE.
IS THAT HARD FOR YOU TO THINK
ABOUT, IS THAT TOUGH TO IMAGINE.
>> I WOULD LIKE TO THINK THAT
MAYBE SHE HAD SYMPATHY FOR YOU,
ADAM.
>> OH, OKAY.
>> James: THAT IS VERY
DIFFERENT HOOKUP.
>> SHE MIGHT HAVE THOUGHT I JUST
LOOKED REALLY DIRTY.
>> James: NOW I UNDERSTAND AND
CORRECT ME IF I AM WRONG, THERE
IS A TORCH UNRELEASED BEASTIE
BOYS MUSIC.
IS THERE EVER A MOMENT IN TIME
WHERE YOU THINK WE THE FANS WILL
GET TO HEAR THESE SONGS?
>> YEAH I DON'T KNOW IF I WOULD
CALL THEM SONGS.
WE HAVE HOURS AND HOURS OF MUSIC
THAT WE PLAY TOGETHER.
AND SO MIKE AND I TALKED ABOUT
SIFTING THROUGH ALL OF THAT
STUFF AND COMING UP WITH
SOMETHING TO PUT OUT.
TO ME IT'S INTERESTING.
HOW SONGS DEVELOP AND SO THERE
ARE HOURS OF US JUST WORKING ON
DIFFERENT SONGS.
>> YOU SENT US A CLIP WHICH ARE
YOU GOING TO PLAY NOW SWAY CLIP,
NEVER BEFORE SEEN OF THE FIRST
TIME YOU EVER WRAPPED ON STAGE,
AND THIS IS PARTICULARLY CLOSE
TO HOME FOR AWFERL US WHO WORK
ON THIS SHOW BECAUSE ONE OF OUR
PRODUCERS TRP WAS A FOUNDING
MEMBER OF YOUR BAND AND SHE
FEATURES PROMINENTLY IN THIS
CLIP.
LET'S TAKE A LOOK.
>> OUR FIRST SHOW WE DWO HALF AS
A HARD-CORE BAND AND LEAVE THE
STAGE AND DO THE OTHER AS A RAP
GROUP.
IS.
>> WE'RE ITS BEASTIE BOYS.
♪ NOW HIT IT JUST DON'T STOP.
♪ SHE ROCKINGS TILL IT MAKES IT
STOP.
♪.
>> OKAY, OKAY, OKAY.
>> YOU GET THE-- WE GET THE
IDEA.
MOST RAPPERS HOLD THEIR RHYMES
IN LITTLE PIECES OF PAPER,
RIGHT?
ISN'T THAT A THING?
>> TRE YOU GO, WORLD.
>> James: HOW DO YOU FEEL
GOING BACK AND LOOKING THROUGH
ALL THIS FOOTAGE?
>> IT'S NICE.
IT'S NICE.
YOU KNOW.
WE JUST HAVE ALWAYS HAD FRIENDS
AROUND AND FAMILY, AND IT'S JUST
SNIES TO LOOK AT OLD CLIPS AND
THINKING ABOUT OUR FRIENDS AND
OUR BAND AND ALL THE WEIRD
PLACES THAT WE HAVE BEEN AND
WEIRD THINGS THAT WE HAVE DONE.
IT IS NICE SOOM OF IT IS NOT
PLEASANT TO WATCH BUT YOU KNOW,
IT'S PART OF OUR HISTORY.
I AM PROUD OF WHAT WE HAVE DONE.
SO IT'S NICE.
>> James: YOU SHOULD BE REALLY
PROUD.
WHAT OTHER THINGS ARE HARDER TO
WATCH, WHICH BIT DID YOU NOT
ENJOY SEEING.
>> I GUESS, THE HARDEST PART
HONESTLY IT WASN'T EVEN A CLIP T
WAS WHEN ADAM, I THINK IT IS IN
THE FINAL, ADAM READ THE LYRICS
FROM THE SONG WE HAD, AND THERE
MAY BE NOT THE MOST ELEVATED
LYRIC.
>> SURE.
>> AND YOU KNOW, THEY PROBABLY
HONESTLY, DID A DISSERVICE WHEN
THAT RECORD CAME OUT WAS REALLY
BIG, SO HOPEFULLY SORRY IF THAT
MESSED ANYBODY'S GROOVE UP BUT
ANYWAY, THAT SHOW, THAT FOR ME
WAS WORSE THAN ANY OF THE CLIPS
JUST HEARING THESE LYRICS THAT
WE HAD WRITTEN WHAT THEY SOUND
LIKE AS SORT OF GROWING PERSON
STANDING THERE ON THE STAGE IS
THAT WAS CRINGEE WORTHY FOR
SURE.
>> WHEN I WAS WATCHING I STARTED
THINKING THIS SHOULD BE A MOVIE
OR A LIMITED TV SERIES OF ITS
OWN.
IS THAT SOMETHING YOU WOULD BE
OPEN TO AND WHO DO YOU THINK
WOULD BE GOOD AT PLAYING YOU?
>> DWANE THE ROCK JOHNSON WOULD
BE ME.
THE SAME LADY AT VONS THAT GAVE
ME THE CLOROX THOUGHT I WAS
DWANE THE ROCK JOHNSON, THAT IS
MAYBE WHY.
>> THAT SHOW THE COLORRIX CAME
AROUND.
>> WHAT ABOUT PLAGUE MICHAEL.
>> LISTEN, HOW ABOUT MELISSA
McCARTHY.
>> DO YOU KNOW KEVIN DURANT.
>> YEAH.
>> LEBRON JAMES, ANY ONE OFS NO
SUPERSTARS.
>> THAT SAY GOOD IDEAS, BRING
SOME NBA TALENT.
>> James: WE REALLY COVERED
EVERYBODY.
GUYS, I CAN'T TELL YOU HOW MUCH
I ENJOYED THE FILM.

TALK US TO TODAY IT IT IS AN
ABSOLUTE THRILL.
