Awesome; I... Shot That! On October 9, 2004, the Beastie Boys handed out 50 video cameras to audience members at their sold out performance in New Yorks famed Madison Square Garden. This was the pinnacle performance of their legendary Challah At Your Boy Tour. These newly appointed cameramen, dotted around the stadium, were given one simple instruction: Just keep shooting! Ingeniously editing this amateur footage, with that of the professionals, MCA (using the pseudonym Nathanial Hφrnblowιr) has created a mind-blowing, multi-coloured, psychedelic musical extravaganza. Never before has the energy and excitement of a live performance been captured so precisely, so accurately and so faithfully. This is quite possibly the greatest concert movie of all time.
