Legendary Beastie Boys member, Mike D, has announced two small club shows in the Los Angeles area. Fans with Coachella blinders on might’ve missed the news that Mike D performed a secret show at the Ojai Valley Woman’s Club during Coachella weekend, leaving those in the know with major FOMO. Mike D performed with his sons and their band, Very Nice Person. And it looks like they will be performing with their Father once again.

Now, fans have a couple more chances to see the icon live. Mike D will perform at the Plaza Night Club & Dance Hall this Thursday, May 7. The small club holds about 299 people.

Next, he’ll take the stage at the new Sid the Cat Auditorium in South Pasadena on Sunday, May 10. 

Tickets to both shows were offered on Dice for only $35 with service fees of only $2.06. How nice is that? You don’t see those kinds of prices anymore. Not with that Live Nation-Ticketmaster monopoly lording over all.
