Adam Yauch Doing Well After Surgery

Following up on a recent post, we are happy to report that Adam Yauch of the Beastie Boys is doing well after surgery to take care of a cancerous tumor of the parotid gland. The surgery, which went down about a week and a half ago, went smoothly, Yauch said in an email sent to Rolling Stone, and will be followed up with radiation treatment.  For now, Yauch is recouping at home and gives thanks to Jay-Z, who filled The Beastie Boys’ slot at All Points West last weekend. Get well soon.
