Tom @beastie_boss discovered Bruce Springsteen through MTV and was not blown over, but after hearing Tunnel of Love on the radio and attending his first show, he has become a major fan. Tom has also loved Beastie Boys, and in a Peanut Butter & Chocolate moment. Tom started #BeastieBoss and the ILL Street Band is a cover mashup tribute project where Tom sings Beastie Boys lyrics to the music of Bruce Springsteen. As a longtime fan of both artists, it is his way to try and entertain and honor both groups.
