“For 50 years the Blind Pig has been open and crowded, but right now it’s an empty room,” Malcoun said in the ad. “Everybody, including me, has a story of that band they saw at The Blind Pig,” Malcoun told A4 in a 2018 interview. According to the Biden campaign, the Beastie Boys broke their yearslong anti-ad streak by allowing the campaign to use their song “Sabotage” in the video. This is really good from the Biden campaign, featuring the owner of "The Blind Pig" in Ann Arbor. According to the Biden campaign, the ad was taken down due to threats against Malcoun and his family.
