At first, 1988, living at Montgomery and Vallejo, I did not like or get The Beastie Boys, and they made me feel kind of embarrassed, especially as a Jew. By the time I saw them at Oakland Coliseum, around 2000 or so, (1998)I thought that, like the Beatles, every single performance or even layer-of-track was signficant.
