Odd response...

Anyways, more news:

NEW YORK (AP) — Beastie Boy Adam Yauch has what is described as a "very treatable" cancerous tumor in his salivary gland.
An announcement came Monday from the group, which is canceling its tour dates and postponing an album release.

A statement says the tumor was found early. It's confined to one area and is considered very treatable.

He will need surgery and other treatment, but the statement says his vocal cords will not be affected.

The 43-year-old Yauch is not only part of the pioneering rap group, but has also emerged as a film producer.

Good news, sounds like he should be o.k.

Nice find, thanks for sharing. Glad its treatable, and won't affect his vocals.

Watching the video 3 thoughts ...

1) Man I'm old ... I remember grooving to them when they first hit the scene back in the day
2) These guys look nothing like what one would expect hip-hop pioneers to look like
3) Good news is that it appears to not have spread - only localized to a single lymph node
