If you were one of the more than
15,000 people who crammed into
the Rose Garden in Portland last
Sunday, then I don't need to tell you
that the Beastie Boys rocked.
If you weren’t so fortunate, then
let me tell you how hard it rocked.
The mere sight of the trio sent fans
in the upper seats plummeting down
to the floor area, and caused a few
brawls, but once the show was un
derway, the only thing people could
do was dance. It didn’t matter where
your seat was; the energy in the
building reached every crevice.
Perched on a revolving stage, the
Beasties didn’t exclude any side
from seeing each of them in action.
As they jumped the crowd jumped
right along with them, and when
they issued the challenge of a dance
contest, the crowd could not have
been more ready. Opposing sides of
the arena danced as if they might ac
tually win something for their ef
forts.
For the hard-core floor fans, the
Beasties didn’t disappoint. “Heart
Attack Man” and “Tough Guy” were
the most intense few minutes of the
show, as people threw themselves at
each other with reckless abandon
and then patted each oth
er on the back when it
was over as if to say,
"Right on. We made it.”
There was also the per
petual crowd pleaser,
"Paul Revere,” which
turned the arena into one
gigantic karaoke bar. Peo
ple were singing the song
before the Beasties said
the first lyric, and contin
ued through the last line.
Some fans had an unusual way of
showing their love of the band —
they threw rolls of toilet paper on
stage, one after the other until Ad
Rock Finally said, “Save some toilet
paper for the people who need it.”
His comment didn’t work. The rolls
kept flying and eventually the Beast
ie Boys were running around with
toilet paper stuck to their shoes.
Now, who would want to miss that?
When they said good night, it was
obvious the crowd wasn’t satisfied,
and it was only a matter of minutes
(( Save some
toilet paper for
the people who
need it. **

Beastie Boy
before they returned to
the hungry masses. The
trio had saved the best for
last. As the B-Boys re
turned, the arena was
dark, and the crowd ex
ploded when they per
formed their latest hit,
"Intergalactic.” The
Beastie Boys finished
even stronger than they
started with an intense
performance of one of
their most popular songs, “Sabo
tage.” Throughout the song they did
handstands on their equipment and
threw other pieces of it, while the
crowd raged as if the night was just
getting started.
The show never lost its energy,
and the only disappointing aspect
was that it ended when it did. Every
one seemed ready for more, which
was evident by the fact that as peo
ple filed out of the building all they
could do was scream. It was the
Beastie Boys at their finest.
Opening for the Beasties was A
Tribe Called Quest, who announced
that their Sept. 29 album would be
their last. It was an announcement
that prompted disappointed boos
from those who could actually hear
them. Following the news, they
played three final songs, but the
sound was a bit loud and difficult to
hear. It was a definite let-down for
those who may have been watching
the group perform together for the
last time.
Bad sound or not, the crowd
seemed as excited about Tribe as
they were about the Beastie Boys,
and it was a perfect beginning to a
show that will probably leave those
who were there sore for a week.

Horoscope by Frances Drake
For Thursday, Aug. 6, 1998
ARIES
(March 21 to April 19)
You will find others with a shared
vision, if only you look around you.
You will receive a welcome source of
support from a strange quarter.
TAURUS
(April 20 to May 20)
Resist the temptation to do some
thing purely for shock value. Delib
erately antagonizing someone is
bound to backfire on you.
GEMINI
(May 21 to June 20) •
A situation will arise that will
force you to seriously contemplate
your fiiture. Someone new will help
you steer events in the right direc
CANCER
(June 21 to July 22)
Your brain can be the ultimate
amusement park, if you just follow
your imagination. Your insights
might be too bizarre for the more
conventional.
LEO
(July 23 to Aug. 22)
There is generally more than one
right answer to any question. To
your pleasant surprise, a twist of
events will put you in the spotlight.
VIRGO
(Aug. 23 to Sept 22)
Try not to sound superior when
sympathizing with a co-worker’s
problem. Rearranging your home
might cure feelings of stagnation.
LIBRA
(Sept. 23 to Oct. 22)
Make the most of a highly creative
period by collaborating with others
whose work you find inspiring. You
will surprise a stranger with your
ingenuity.
SCORPIO
(Oct. 23 to Nov. 21)
A situation that you thought was
resolved requires immediate atten
tion. Trouble at home drives you to
escape into the anonymity of a pub
lic place.
SAGITTARIUS
(Nov. 22 to Dec. 21)
The best way to build a community
is to freely exchange ideas. A lifelong
friendship may be forged thanks to
an unexpected twist of fate.
CAPRICORN

Ifa friend lets you down, hide your
disappointment You will soon un
derstand the reason behind his or

10AQUARIUS
(Jan. 20 to Feb. 18)
While you look fantastic, appear
ance is not the most important thing.
What you do or say will leave more of
an impression.
PISCES
(Feb. 19 to March 20)
The reason behind the madness
will make itself known soon. Mean
while, take a deep breath and sur
round yourself with good friends.
YOU BORN TODAY have a unique
creative flair that affords you many
interesting opportunities. However,
your tendency to procrastinate often
prevents you from fulfilling your
potential. Spiritual and emotional
fulfillment are far more important
to you than material security.
