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.

THAI SO MUCH FOR CALLING IN TO TALK US TO TODAY IT IT IS AN

ABSOLUTE THRILL.
