"The Beastie Boys, a 'hip-hop' band from the bowels of New York City, began the evening with 30 minutes of nasties. Their overall vulgarity was a shoddy way to open a show of such magnitude. With a DJ who 'scratched' his way into the heads of listeners and three other talentless urchins who pranced about making lewd gestures, the Beasties succeeded only in their quest to be obnoxious." - Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, May 29, 1985
