Notes: While out making the rounds promoting the release of Check Your Head, the Beastie Boys made this appearance on Much Music. By 1992, critics had changed their tune and were praising the band for being innovators. Therefore the Beastie Boys were constantly asked how it felt to finally be taken seriously as musicians. In this interview the Mike D makes it abundantly clear that when a musician begins to think he deserves to be “taken seriously” the next thing you know you’re Don Henley or Al Dimola...and who wants to be Al Dimola.
