How loose?
I think AGD is saying that Bruce doesn't post here, Ed.

I, I love the colorful clothes she wears, and she's already working on my brain. I only looked in her eyes, but I picked up something I just can't explain. I, I bet I know what she’s like, and I can feel how right she’d be for me. It’s weird how she comes in so strong, and I wonder what she’s picking up from me. I hope it’s good, good, good, good vibrations, yeah!!

Remember that time Michael Vosse posted here and it all went sideways? Good times. Bruce can def handle himself on the BB boards.
OT: Where was "I Only Have Eyes For You" recorded. It has a lot to do with that studio's echo chamber wouldn't you say.

"I Only Have Eyes For You" - I adore that recording...

But by October 1958, with some money to spend on instrumentation and a good echo chamber available for recording, Goldner brought The Flamingos in for another studio session to record what would become the album, Flamingo Serenade. Terry Johnson and Paul Wilson were recorded as lead singers on three of the 12 songs selected for the album. Nate Nelson was in the lead for some of the album’s songs as well, including most notably, “I Only Have Eyes for You.”
Doesn't reveal the studio, though...

I reckon Bruce doesn't post here because too many people would disagree with his recollections of how it actually was.
Anyway how could anyone disagree with the one Beach Boy who says Pet Sounds shouldn't have had 'Sloop John B' on it!

I was just being obtoose.
He played on At Garfunkel''s Breakaway album which featured a great version of I Only Have Eyes For You (not to mention a pretty good version of Disney Girls). Don't think he played on the track, however, and I'm too lazy to look it up.

Bruce showed up on another board too - was that Male Ego? - around 2005(?) I can't remember. Anyway, he had a week where he started posting and went into his influences, among them "I Only Have Eyes For You" by the Flamingos which is one of the most beautiful and haunting records ever made...I'll never get over how they got those sounds...and arranger Nelson Riddle.
Love that. It is so gorgeously atmospheric.
It's a record that you can't shake off or forget, you hear it and you just get lost in the sounds. I can't explain what it is, how they did it, etc etc...it leaves you speechless once you've connected with that record. Incredible. I wasn't surprised to hear it was a favorite of Bruce's, it was really neat to hear him mention it, though.
I'm a big fan of those "Desert Island Discs" interviews as they reveal a lot about the artists, and I'd love to hear one of those lists from each of the Beach Boys. Although we can guess Brian's top choices...Be My Baby, Rhapsody In Blue, etc...
Oh YEAH. Count me among the admirers of this disc. Thanks, guys, for making me think about this record again...

I thought he played the Rhodes on that? It's a damn good record, for sure.

Don't you suppose he knows more about it than you do? He was there; he sang on that particular song, for instance. When was the last time you and Brian Wilson went and had a steak together? Bruce and Brian are probably out bowling together right now.
Bruce probably posts on BBB because he's old and set in his ways, and that's the board he's signed up to and can remember the password to. Nothing more, nothing less.
The rough and tough atmosphere here or anywhere else wouldn't keep him away, you think he hasn't heard it all before? Do you honestly think you guys are the first to make fun of his white shorts? His hot-ass girlfriends probably never made fun of them. He probably comforts himself from all the hatred with
A. his beautiful wife
B. his beautiful family
C. his beautiful bank account
D. his beautiful music
E. his beautiful talent
F. his beautiful life
G. his beautiful fans
It's delusional and narcissistic to think that this message board is too 'tough' for someone like him to handle.

It is, however, entirely reasonable for him to think that a room full of bitchiness just isn't worth engaging with...

Bruce is on record saying that 'Sloop John B' is a great song but shouldn't have been on Pet Sounds. That is an example of where he's prepared to say what he thinks without falling out with anyone else in the band.
I posted a message that says that Bruce tells it like it was and that's why BBB members enjoy his posts on their board. Equally they like to ask sensible polite questions. At times this board has too many rude responders who also seem unable to read properly.

So true. And, I'll admit with so much to read here that I've mis-read a post or two or three. Yes, if anything would keep them away from here, ir would be the rudeness, for sure.

To understand what the real fan has to say, this is THE only site and for that reason I have always been of the opinion that Bruce at the very least
reads
this board.
As many of you guys have bet your testicles and lost on this board,
I'll wager mine that he also posts
.
You loose.
Ok. I'll join the long line of eunuchs here.

I'd love it if Bruce (or any BB's) would post here!
But I can see why he's not. The things people say about him around here is quite disgusting, and I don't think he would want anything to do with this forum.
Maybe if we clean up our act, stop with the Bruce bashing (Why did it even start? I certainly never found it funny...), he might consider joining this forum.
BTW, is anyone also a member of the BBB forum? If someone is, it would be great to send Bruce a PM requesting him to check out this forum!

Bruce is well aware of this forum, as he is the Bloo, the Hoff and the sadly few other BB fora. Now OSD is history, maybe he'll consider posting. Maybe not. I have no idea.

Yes, it was. Junk emailed me, saying there was some guy claiming to be Bruce who wanted to register and before he told him to go f*** himself, he thought he'd check with me to see if it was. Asked him for the email then told him he could tell the guy to GFH but, as it really was Bruce, maybe he shouldn't. Junk told me later that was the moment when he fully understood the phrase "my blood ran cold".

I forgot all about that. Man I miss the Male Ego board. Mike's daughter used to post there too. Dunno why those people would subject themselves to that board.

I participated in the discussion with Bruce a few years ago on Steve Hoffman's board. He was indeed very engaging and answered my questions about the early version of Tears in the Morning. He also agreed with the feelings on that board about the deficiencies of his solo album.

That's a good sign. It can't & won't top the Smiley Smile board. I thought it's a well-known fact by now. So remove the sad smiley, it's unnecessary.

Those were my thoughts exactly. The design of this one board is more stylish. No wonder every BB celebrity got over here, eventually or gradually.
