Not entirely off-topic; he was part of that live Brian tribute thing (top, right column):

Man, not something I expected to see this morning...  Really thought he'd kick the big C in the pants for awhile, and hang around quite a bit longer...  Great photo series in the Guardian:

Was sad seeing him wasting away, top actor.

And anybody aware of Van Dyke Parks is the man in my book

RIP

Very sad to hear this, Hopper was a fine actor and I always loved Easy Rider.

I like the Beatles a bit more than the Boys of Beach, I think Brian's band is the tops---really amazing. And finally, I'm liberal. That's it.

Such a great, underrated, wide-ranged actor, I love his performances in:

Easy Rider
Hoosiers
Blue Velvet
True Romance

and yes, I have a soft spot for Super Mario Bros.   Wink

"in this online beach boy community, I've found that you're either correct or corrected. Which in my mind is all in good fun to show ones knowledge of their favorite band."- punkinhead
