Soft Focus with Adam Horovitz (Ad Rock of Beastie Boys)

[SeraphicDeviltry2]

Why is Adam talking with a lisp like that? lol. I have never heard him talk like that before.

[spider62able]

@Osta123 I grew up in the seventies and they remind of what we called "desert boots". Hush Puppies also had a simular style and Lugs make a work boot in that style.

[100FingeredMonkey]

Sveninius is one hella snappy dresser

[TheDjsingleton]

I have the Beastie Boys very first cd. Pretty badass.

[instereovideos]

How come none of these interviews have a part 2?

[Osta123]

What are these shoes Adam's wearing? I like 'em.

[cauthoncrazy]

Completely unrelated: Is Ian married? I bet being married to him would be heaps of fun. 

[shueln]

@cauthoncrazy I don't think He's married. He gets a little grabby around me, I actually know him. Kind of..I am close to people who are close to him. He seems to like me, we email and stuff.

[HarlowMay]

@cauthoncrazy He's married to Kathleen Hanna.

[simmy3000]

part 2?

[randolfthegray]

did he say "mafia induced retirement" haha

[XwickedXclownzX17]

ad rock is fuckin badass

[TheFemiFist]

Hahahaha "You CAN fit a lot of things into a lot of things!" hahahhaa.

[MorbidHybrid]

I'm fairly sure he's being ironic. Could be a parody of similary hyperbolic intros.

[mattvansickle]

The interviewer is Ian Svenonius from the Nation of Ulysses. All you people giving/getting thumbs up for mocking him and don't realise that he is taking the piss (much like the Beasties in fact) are....reeeeaally fuckin' stupid. Jokes on you! lol

[neoncandlelight]

right on, matt. thanks for clearing this up for the uninformed!

[vpdp0001]

@TheFemiFist impressive

[arclight2012]

@mattvansickle He takes the piss yet always asks good questions...so I'm sure it's easy for some people to get confused ;-) Just see his interview with Kevin Shields of My Bloody Valentine.

[2bin]

Translation:"Do you love the way I talk about myself more or do I? What do you think?!"

[neoncandlelight]

Ian's a genius. NoU!!!

[mattvansickle]

None of these idiots seem to know who he is! Oh well.

[djdevelope1]

this IS beastie.

[kumbo]

What the hell is up with the interviewer's hair?

[PATYPUS3]

This interviewer should tone down the hype a bit in his intros.  jeez.

[keithelvis]

WHAT is the point of this?

[maxpower623]

hey Ad, i hope did a flintsone over his head, after ther show. When you boys come back to Perth Western Australia ill be that guy that rushes the stage, HAHA for real

[Facialcream13]

adrock is the only member in the beasties worth talking to.

[90spro]

20mn was way too short

[Apu2k]

Oldies try look young so why not youngsters try look old IN REBELLION :O

[meeces13]

@Apu2k hes always looked like that - try again oh wise one

[meeces13]

@Apu2k hes always looked like that - try again oh wise one

[sarabaack]

"what do you think?" and the crowd laughed lol...and adrock said the troggs haha this is a funny clip...

[Nezwart]

Ad seems really old in this clip. Maybe we are all getting older but it's his slight 'slurriness' which makes him seem like an old man.

[sarabaack]

well he is a sexy old man then. lol.

[sarabaack]

he is dressed like an old fart though lol i'm not feeling his rolled up jeans lately..but i could live with that.

[TheAtraxRobustus]

nick cave gone sober!

[crosbystillsnash68]

the beatles and the beatie boys couldnt be farther apart...

[sarabaack]

i'm obsessed with both bands, and i'm sure that john lennon would have appreciated the BB's originality.

[samaanman]

no doubt

[crosbystillsnash68]

[paullybizzle]

[1trip711]
