I grind my teeth down to nothing when I'm forced to read bad Wikipedia writing.

On SNL's 25th anniversary show in 1999, Costello burst in on Beastie Boys — 'sabotaging' their performance of "Sabotage" — and they performed "Radio Radio" together.

I'd edit out the oh-so-cutesy air quotes around "sabotaging" but they don't like it when you write FUCK YOU AND YOUR CRAP STYLE as the reason for the edit.

ALSO THIS ARTICLE NEEDS AT LEAST ONE ANIME POP CULTURE REFERENCE, JESUS GUYS, GET ON THE BALL, TVTROPES IS WINNING
