The projection of an extremely dynamic movie called Awesome; I Fuckin' Shot That!, which shows a concert in Madison Square Gardens of one of the most significant bands nowadays - The Beastie Boys, is going to enrich the content of Planet Rock Selection.
The movie is a result of an interesting experiment: 50 cameras were given to fans who recorded the concert using them.
The mass production of concert films brought a certain level of monotony to this kind of audio-visual recording, butt The Beastie Boys made a step further with the movie Awesome; I Fuckin' Shot That!, successfully transmitting the concert experience from Madison Square Gardens. 50 film recordings colourfully and originally pictured the exciting concert atmosphere and the positive energy of live performance.
In the role of director of this music documentary, Nathanial Hörnblowér, known as Beaste Adam Yauch appears. He was born in 1964 in New York. Mike D and Yauch founded The Beastie Boys in 1981, and not long after, the third member, Adam Horovitz joined them.
