Adam Horovitz(I)

The other two Beastie Boys admitted that he was the author of about 80% of the music on the album "Hello Nasty".

I read in the news and heard from my friends all about the sexual assaults that went down at Woodstock 1999, and made me feel really sad and angry. Well I was thinking why should I just feel mad about it and not do anything about it? And I think we can do something about it. As musicians. Now I'm talking to all the musicians here. I think we can talk to the promoters and make sure they're doing something about the safety of all the girls and the women that come to our shows. I think we can talk and work with the security people to make sure they know and understand about sexual harassment and rape, and they know how to handle these situations. You know what I'm saying? Respectfully. Anyways I wanna dedicate this award to everybody out there that's down to make change happen. Thanks. ---- Adam Horovitz at the MTV VMA's 1999.
