Title: Hey guys
Post by: Little Pad on August 23, 2014, 06:01:33 PM
Been posting here a bit, haven't made a thread here yet. Lurked here a bit when I recently went through a phase of getting really obsessed with Smile, and I missed posting on message boards, so here I am.

I'm 22 and I'm from around Edmonton, Canada (don't live in the city, but spend most of my free time there). The Beatles had always been one of my favourite bands since I started getting really serious about music (so, when I was like 12), and I decided to look for similar stuff at one point, and I ended up finding and falling in love with Pet Sounds when I was in high school. For a while I mostly just stuck with that, Sunflower, and I dug The Smile Sessions but wasn't too into it. It's only been within the last couple months that I realized just how incredible Smile is (it very well might be my favourite "album") and how great their whole run from '65-'71 is.

Hi, Little Pad, and welcome! I'm sure there'll be plenty to occupy you here. Lots of frighteningly erudite types if you have any questions. (But first check out AGD's website----http://www.esquarterly.com/bellagio/----plenty of answers there.) There's always lots happening on this MB----never a dull moment, you might say. ;=)

Welcome Little Pad,  Glad that young folks are exploring the music of The Beach Boys.  It holds up pretty well.
Enjoy your time here, this is a great place to learn about and discuss other music too - look around.  see you on the boards, Will
