Beastie Boys' Adam Yauch put out cancer
Adam Yauch of the Beastie Boys was making out last week having a cancerous cancer in his left parotid (salivary) gland. It was trapped early and is measured "very treatable," says a statement from the band. Yauch will have surgery and suffer several weeks of treatment. Beastie Boys have canceled all upcoming concert appearances and the release of the band's new album Hot Sauce Committee Part 1 will also be pushed back.
