Beastie Boys' Adam Yauch Has Cancer

Today Adam "MCA" Yauch announced that he has cancer in the throat and the group will be canceling upcoming shows and pushing back the release of their Hot Sauce Committee, Part One until he finishes his treatment. Adam said, "The good news is, they did scans of my whole body and it's only localized in this one area, and it's not in a place that affects my voice, so ... that's nice. That's convenient."... Hopefully everything works out and he has a speedy recovery.
