Beastie Boys

In the summer of 1998, the Beastie Boys were riding high on the wave created by their critically acclaimed album "Hello Nasty," which had been released just a year prior. This live performance at the T In The Park Festival in Kinross showcased their eclectic energy, blending old school hip-hop with their signature playful style. Dressed in quirky lab coats and rain boots, the trio, along with DJ Mix Master Mike and keyboardist Money Mark, not only delivered a memorable rendition of "Intergalactic," but they also highlighted the band's knack for keeping things fresh while connecting with their roots. Interesting enough, during this period, the band was exploring more experimental sounds, mixing various genres seamlessly—a move that further solidified their legacy as music innovators. This live set is a brilliant snapshot of the Beasties at a vibrant crossroad of creativity and experimentation, tapping into the nostalgia of their earlier works while pushing boundaries forward.
