These guys have been going since 1964, they came knocking at my heart in 1972, I let them in and they haven't left yet.*

Now, finally, they're coming to South Africa and they'll be in Johannesburg on June 1 this year: I've been waiting almost forty years to see them live.  :cheers:

* Despite the fact that their song PROCESSION scared the crap out of me when I was five.  :buggedout: :buggedout:
We shall meet in the place where there is no darkness.

I'm thrilled for you,Trevor.....I was lucky enough to see them in concert one time. They were incredible! :wink:
Yes,I'm fine....as long as I don't look too closely.

I'm with Axl Rose  on this  one, Screw the Rock and Roll  hall of fame, the very thought of a  Rock 'Royalty' is offensive. The fans recognise them, I don't need  some stale  museum. :teddyr:

No, no, the Beasties deserve it.  They're far from a media creation and talentless.  They've had some of the best albums of the past 30 years.

I think THE MOODY BLUES had a few interesting records... I had Days Of Future Past on vinyl, and that comeback record 'round 1980 (but my copy skipped, like all new records 'round that time) whatever the hell it was called.  I liked 'em both but didn't listen to 'em much.

Why knock THE BEASTIE BOYS?  They're great.  I had and wish I still did "Cookie Puss" on 12" vinyl.  Loved that record.  
If you want to view paradise . . . simply look around and view it!

Ah,well....everyone's tastes differ. The Beatstie Boys....the Stones... :wink:

I celebrate the individual. :smile:
