According to 9th Beastie, she has steadfastly declined her spot in Beastiemania… Booboosnack (Ft. Beastie Boys & Felicia Villarreal) – The Beastie Chronicles II w/ Beastie Boys Manager Felicia Villarreal

9th Beastie is from Beastiemania.com, where the Who’s Who, gigography, etc. are indispensable resources for anyone who wants to know more about the Beastie Boys. For the curious listener to the pathological Beastiemaniac, s/he will find a near infinite collection of B-Boys nuggets within these archives. Tbh, the lyrics (accuracy, explication, etc.) on Beastiemania.com have been a huge inspiration for me and countless other fans…

In the early 90s, when desktop publishing was in its infancy, Felicia taught herself how to design the most kick-ass tour magazines and print media/promotional materials you ever saw.

She would often put in 20-hour work days. Felicia’s skills, passion and management prowess lead her to SAM, the Beastie Boys and Grand Royal.

Adam Horovitz goes, “You wouldn’t do that me… You’re not… You’re going to have a baby? What??” And I could see the wheels turning in his brain. Then he asks, “But Felicia, who is going to love and take care of us?” Booboosnack (Ft. Beastie Boys & Felicia Villarreal) – The Beastie Chronicles II w/ Beastie Boys Manager Felicia Villarreal

I remember talking to Adam Yauch and telling him about how I was struggling with missing all of them and wanting to come back, but that I was also trying to figure out how to help Jayden. It still makes me cry today… Adam just told me: "Felicia, you are doing the right thing… Be a mom and he’s going to be ok… They are very broad with Autism diagnoses and many times it really turns out to be ok. We are all ok… Be a mom." This is an example of just how amazing Adam Yauch was. Booboosnack (Ft.

^^ Adam’s signature font. As a friend, Yauch was amazingly loyal. But he treated EVERYONE as though they were important.

Yes, Paul is an incredibly patient man. But I started feeling like I was missing something in life. We went to the beach to talk and I said, “I am almost 35, and I feel like I'm missing out on you. I wish we could spend more time together.” Booboosnack (Ft. Beastie Boys & Felicia Villarreal) – The Beastie Chronicles II w/ Beastie Boys Manager Felicia Villarreal

In the early-to-mid ‘90s, when it came to carving virgin pow, MCA was nothing short of a fanatic. But he never forgot how to get mellow and find his groove.

I remember when I met Adam at Lollapalooza. They were headliners, and Adam was like, I'm going to bring these Tibetan monks on tour. And I was like, “What?” The monks would come and do the blessing every day, and it was an amazing introduction to a different culture and other things that were happening in the world.

In bringing Tibetan monks on Lollapalooza and IC tours, Yauch was thinking way outside the box. Before long, though, the cross-cultural immersion became a natural fit—and a living, breathing tribute to interconnectedness.
