As a part of Bonnaroo’s ‘Virtual ROO-ALITY’ livestream, organizers have dug into the vaults and unearthed the Beastie Boys’ final performance, allowing fans to watch through Sunday, Sept. 27.
The gig – headlining Bonnaroo 2009 – came right before MC Adam Yaunch was diagnosed with cancer, a battle he eventually lost in 2012.
Wrote remaining members of the band – Ad-Rock and Mike D – of the full concert debut, “The last gig.. We’ve heard from so many fans around the world that were unable to tune in last night, so our friends at @Bonnaroo are letting the set live online through the weekend.”
