Full Show Friday: Beastie Boys Nassau Coliseum 5-11-95

We search the murky back waters of youtube to find full concerts and post them to the site weekly, come back every seven days to help us celebrate Full Show Friday's. These shows are of varying quality and may not be here for long so enjoy them while you can...As always, please support the artist every which way, but especially by seeing them live (if they are still playing)...This week...Beastie Boys!

For December RtBE is having a special focus with our Full Show Friday's. This month we will showcase live shows, that we were at and also were huge influences on our musical tastes. We will also be trying to get some outside perspectives when we can. This will be a fun and personal month for us, hope you enjoy.   

So it is only the second week of this series and we are already cheating technically. We were not at this nights show in Long Island, we were at the show a few weeks later at Madison Square Garden on the same tour. In doing this month's focus on shows that personally meant something to us, this had to be included because our Beastie Boy experience at the Garden was our first introduction of our next life phase, New York City. 

We were just recently enrolled in NYU and were finishing up our senior year of high school about to enter the city full time when we came down with some friends and attended the concert. This was a preview, and it was a rollicking joy to behold. The Beasties themselves were a huge influence on our fashion, musical tastes and overall style. The Garden show was a trip and our trip was just beginning...  

So while we are cheating a bit, you can and still should, enjoy:
