Beastie Boy Adam ''MCA'' Yauch muss sich wegen einer diagnostizierten Krebserkrankung in Behandlung begeben. Yauch hatte die Nachricht von seiner tragischen Erkrankung gestern Morgen per Video auf der Webseite der Band bekanntgemacht.

Die Beastie Boys haben daraufhin alle Tourpläne für diesen Sommer gestrichen und die bevorstehende Veröffentlichung des neuen Albums ''Hot Sauce Committee Part 1'' auf unbestimmte Zeit verschoben. Yauch gibt sich auf dem Video den Umständen entsprechend zuversichtlich. Nach der Opperation verspreche er sich eine vollständige Erholung und hoffe, bald wieder mit der Arbeit beginnen zu können.



Yauch entschuldigte sich außerdem bei allen Fans, die sich bereits auf eines der angekündigten Konzerte eingestimmt haben: "I apologize to everybody, for anyone who's made plans or was psyched to come to these shows that are coming up," so Yauch. "We'll be back doing this soon."


Erst kürzlich hatten wir Adam Yauch und die anderen Beastie Boys zum gemeinsamen Kochen in Köln getroffen (siehe Foto). Intro wünscht gute Besserung und baldige Genesung!

    War nicht so gemeint.
    Sympathischer Kerl, hoffe mal für ihn, dass das alles wirklich gut behandelbar ist. Der neue Song mit Nas klingt übrigens auch gut, aber das ist ja jetzt erstmal nebensächlich.

    Aus dem Beastie Boys Newsletter:

    aug 5 2009

    hey all,

    hope you are doing well.

    so i'm about a week and a half out of surgery now and rapidly recovering from it. i haven't taken any of the pain meds, which supposedly speeds along the healing process, or should i say, taking them slows it down. anyway, i spent 1 night at the hospital after the surgery. the hospital was too crazy to get any rest so i headed home to relax, have home cooked food and hang out with the family.

    i'm pretty well detoxed from the anesthesia that they pumped me up with to keep me under for all that time. that took several days to get out of my system. my neck and jaw are still pretty stiff from the surgery, but it gets better everyday. had the stitches out this past monday... so things are moving along.

    but no sooner am i on the mend from this first torture than are they lining up the next one. the next line of treatment will be radiation. that involves blasting you with some kind of beam for a few minutes a day, 5 days a week, for about 7 weeks. that will start in a few weeks...

    saw the jay-z cover of no sleep, and the coldplay one of fight for your right from APW on youtube. good shit. and i heard karen o wore a "get well MCA" armband, and that q-tip gave a shout out too..... very kind of them.

    just wanted to thank them and everyone else who sent positive thoughts my way. i do think that all of the well wishes have contributed to the fact that my treatment and recovery are going well.

    much love back at all of you!

    adam

    Vom Oktober Newsletter:

    hey all,

    so i just got back from dharamsala, india. went over there to see some tibetan doctors, but as it worked out, the Dalai Lama was giving a 3 day teaching, so i was able to attend that as well.

    i'm feeling healthy, strong and hopeful that i've beaten this thing, but of course time will tell. i'm taking tibetan medicine and at the recommendation of the tibetan doctors i've been eating a vegan/organic diet, which surprisingly enough was harder to do in india than it is now that i'm back home. here i can just shop for the right food and cook... a lot easier than depending on restaurants.

    when i was in india i visited an ani gompa (a nunnery) called jamyang choling. they did a puja (religious ceremony) for me to help me get well. one nun said to me "we do prayers and then you are better." so i've got that going for me, which is nice.

    i will put a link to their web site (below) but it doesn't do justice to how amazing it is to actually go there and hang out with them. i sponsor a few nuns at jamyang choling. there are about 125 nuns there now and more keep joining. when i first met them i think there were only 13 and they were living in some abandoned cow sheds. then they bought some land with some donations, and with more donations they started building rooms for housing, classrooms, a prayer hall, 2 stoopas..... they now live on a beautiful complex in this incredibly lush, peaceful patch of land in lower dharamsala. cows walking around, birds singing, they are growing mangoes and bananas, and they have a whole garden where they grow herbs and vegetables.

    i asked how many nuns still need sponsorship. they said 50. it's about $350 a year to sponsor a nun if you are interested.

    we have not set a new release date for the record yet, but i'm hoping it'll be in the first half of next year. looking forward to that, but in the meantime, i'm just enjoying a little downtime in massachusetts, taking walks in the woods and hanging out with the family.... still doing a little work related to oscilloscope, watching screeners and attending some screenings, but for the most part, just laying low.

    if you are interested i'll send out some little updates every now and then on the oscilloscope twitter account.

    thanks again for all of the well wishes and prayers, and the letters were great too, brought a smile to my face reading them.

    talk to you soon,

    yauch
