calling with hip-hop music. In 1985, they opened for Madonna on her
famous "Like a Virgin" tour. The Beastie Boys gained huge success with
numerous albums and tours, then later founded their own record label
and magazine called Grand Royal in 1993. Mike has also worked on
musical projects with Mike Watt and Kenny 'Tick' Salcido, as well
as Miho Hatori and Yuka Honda of the band Cibo Matto.
