Brian has passed away!!!!
Ptolemaios:
This feels like one era of pop music and pop culture ending. Some of my best memories in life are when I found Pet Sounds and Smile nearly 25 years ago and my life was never the same after. Even though Brian’s greatest gifts to music were given nearly 60 years ago his presence nevertheless was a constant reminder that we live in the era of that masterful creativity through his presence. Now it has come an end. Brian’s passing is sad but of course not surprising considering his age.
Greetings to everyone and let’s keep the flame alive.

The day we knew was coming but still emotional. Today will be a day of tribute in the only way I know…Beach Boys music! 🎸🥁🏄
SMiLE Brian:
Sail on Brian….
Wirestone:
I am sad, yes, but overwhelmed with gratitude to have shared this timeline with Brian Wilson. As I grew older, I came to understand more about how one person's life can contain so many contradictions and complications, tragedies and triumphs. He was so very human. Brian and his bands (the Beach Boys, sure, but also the folks who toured with him for a quarter century beginning in 1999) created something special and lasting. Few others can say the same. Love to his friends and family, love to my fellow fans, love to us all. We sure need it.

RIP big guy. What a life. What a legacy.
Some of you are managing an impressive level of stoicism that I seem incapable of right now.
