Title: What If Paradox Post by: Surfer on March 25, 2014, 01:39:23 PM What if the Beach Boys did not Exist?
Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: bringahorseinhere? on March 25, 2014, 01:45:15 PM well we probably wouldn't know about them....
RickB Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: SMiLE Brian on March 25, 2014, 01:46:18 PM This thread wouldn't exist.
Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: Orange Crate Art on March 25, 2014, 01:46:54 PM I wouldn't know about Hawthorne.
Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: The Heartical Don on March 25, 2014, 01:54:22 PM Mike Love would be pumping gas.
Brian Wilson would be an ice cream man, or be running a steak house. Bruce would recently have played Liberace. David would run a guitar store somewhere on the L.A. coast. Denny would be a salesman for racing cars (because he'd lived healthier with less cash flow and access to the Columbian Marching Powder). These are speculations with a high scientific significance. But what about AGD? A Brighton pub landlord, perhaps? Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: Surfer on March 25, 2014, 01:56:51 PM If they did not Exist in the 60's would they start up the Beach Boys in the 1970's
Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: buddhahat on March 25, 2014, 01:59:10 PM This just get better and better ...
Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: The Heartical Don on March 25, 2014, 02:11:04 PM This thread wouldn't exist. It would. But it would be about The Hollies. Other people would write in it. The moderators would be different folks too. Um, wait, I see a philosophical problem emerging here... Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: bringahorseinhere? on March 25, 2014, 02:13:27 PM actually The Bee Gees are The Beach Boys in the paradox we are currently experiencing... ::)

Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: RiC on March 25, 2014, 02:27:02 PM Thank you Surfer, you have brightened my day many times-and I really mean it :-D
Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: bringahorseinhere? on March 25, 2014, 02:30:09 PM surprised we are this far in and no mention of 'trolls' and abusing each other....
feeling the love :-D good peoples! RickB Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: The Shift on March 25, 2014, 02:32:57 PM There are one or two folks post here who can recall when there was no Beach Boys. I hope they can chip in …
Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: mtaber on March 25, 2014, 03:06:37 PM If the Beach Boys did not exist , I would never have met my wife, or had 7 kids. And I would have never spent the thousands of dollars I blew on collecting. And I never would have done my newsletters back in the day... So it wouldn't be ALL bad...
Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: SMiLE Brian on March 25, 2014, 03:08:40 PM Don't be so hard on yourself Marty.... :lol
Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: SenorPotatoHead on March 25, 2014, 03:20:38 PM The Beatles would not have been inspired to do Sgt Peppers.
Paul McCartney's "favorite" song (GOK) would not exist, and that would be sad for Paul because he would feel a void in his life and just not be able to pinpoint where it was coming from or what it was - when people would ask him, he would reply simply, "God only knows." ;) Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: Smilin Ed H on March 25, 2014, 03:27:57 PM Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha :lol
Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: joshferrell on March 25, 2014, 03:29:41 PM Jan and Dean would be in their place, "Filet of Soul" would be "Pet Sounds", with "Cathy's Clown" Influencing McCartney to do an album about a circus. Jan and Deans next album "Carnival of sound" would take place of "Smile" as the most popular unreleased album of all time.. :afro :hat :p
Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: Andrew G. Doe on March 25, 2014, 03:35:18 PM What if the Beach Boys did not Exist? Then we wouldn't have to endure your increasingly annoying trolling. I'd vote for that. Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: The Shift on March 25, 2014, 03:37:34 PM Paul Macca wouldn't have had his five a day in 66/67…
Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: rab2591 on March 25, 2014, 03:38:37 PM This thread wouldn't exist. I'm starting to wonder if it's worth it then... Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: Gabo on March 25, 2014, 04:10:14 PM If they did not Exist in the 60's would they start up the Beach Boys in the 1970's they use the name Beach Boys but play Dick Dale and Jan and Dean covers... but wait, if the Beach Boys didn't exist, would Jan and Dean? Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: bringahorseinhere? on March 25, 2014, 04:13:51 PM jan and dean would have existed because they already had...
RickB Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: joshferrell on March 25, 2014, 04:27:41 PM jan and dean would have existed because they already had... Exactly.. and Jan and Dean would have been pretty much the same but maybe without the surfing songs, they wouldn't have Surf City and ride the wild surf but they would have most of their other hits,, Car songs were still big even without the Beach Boys, so they would still have the car songs. it's possible Jan Berry may have been influenced by Dick Dale if the Beach Boys never existed and he would do surf songs but they would mostly instrumental..RickB Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: Moon Dawg on March 25, 2014, 05:21:14 PM If The Beach Boys did not exist, AGD would have invented them. ;D
Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: Pretty Funky on March 25, 2014, 06:24:51 PM We would be blaming some guy called Mike for saying "no" to his cousin Brian when he proposed a family singing group.
.......oh, and I would have had a lot of wasted time back! Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: bgas on March 25, 2014, 07:51:18 PM We would be blaming some guy called Mike for saying "no" to his cousin Brian when he proposed a family singing group. .......oh, and I would have had a lot of wasted time back! So sad that you feel the time you've spent with us ihas been wasted.... Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: Pretty Funky on March 25, 2014, 08:22:28 PM Aahhh but it is only wasted because the band never existed remember!
Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: Mujan, 8@$+@Rc| of a Blue Wizard on March 25, 2014, 08:23:58 PM So this is pretty much the most pointless thread ever
Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: bgas on March 25, 2014, 08:42:33 PM So this is pretty much the most pointless thread ever I thought this one was: Here's a SMiLE Rearrangement Ive been working on. Feedback appreciated. Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: Pretty Funky on March 25, 2014, 08:48:17 PM What if they were all born as girls? is up there IMO.
Need some news on the Brian movie and album desperately don't we? Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: bgas on March 25, 2014, 08:54:25 PM What if they were all born as girls? is up there IMO. Need some news on the Brian movie and album desperately don't we? Yes that thread also. And some news on the upcoming Capitol release of unreleased BBs songs Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: Pretty Funky on March 25, 2014, 09:56:44 PM Wasn't there also talk about a C50 picture book? Guess that moment has passed. Time for a thread on promised Beach Boy projects me thinks!

Feedback appreciated. Yeah, seeing as how it descended into 5 pages of people ironically complaining I was f***ing with the formula. 'Cause SMiLE mixes apparently have rules now. Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: ThyRavenAscend on March 25, 2014, 10:46:29 PM This thread wouldn't exist. It would. But it would be about The Hollies. Other people would write in it. The moderators would be different folks too. Um, wait, I see a philosophical problem emerging here... Ah, but then the first post would be, "What if The Hollies didn't exist?" And then someone would reply, "This thread wouldn't exist." And then someone like you would say, "It would. But it would be about The Young Rascals. Other people would write in it. The moderators would be different folks too." Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: Andrew G. Doe on March 25, 2014, 11:08:46 PM What if... Surfer had never been born ?
I like that idea, very much indeed. Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: Mujan, 8@$+@Rc| of a Blue Wizard on March 25, 2014, 11:13:55 PM Wasn't there also talk about a C50 picture book?

Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: Gabo on March 25, 2014, 11:31:01 PM Wasn't there also talk about a C50 picture book? Guess that moment has passed. Time for a thread on promised Beach Boy projects me thinks! picture book! pictures of your mama taken by your paper a long time ago! Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: Gabo on March 25, 2014, 11:32:49 PM What if... Surfer had never been born ? I like that idea, very much indeed. What if Surfer was your own son? Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: Andrew G. Doe on March 25, 2014, 11:37:58 PM Were that true, the following would apply:
1 - his English grammar would be a helluva lot better... 2 - his manners would also be better... 3 - he wouldn't be asking so many damnfool questions. ;D Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: Smilin Ed H on March 26, 2014, 12:08:06 AM Shave that beard off, Andrew, and you'll look like Chief Joseph!
Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: Andrew G. Doe on March 26, 2014, 02:13:40 AM Careful what you say around here on that topic - the Thought Police and PC Nazis will be on your case so fast your head will spin. :)
Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: runnersdialzero on March 26, 2014, 02:55:37 AM remember that creed song called "what if" where scott stapp was freaking out going "WHOD EFF. WHOD EFF. WHOD EFF. WHOD EFF. WHOD EFF, AHH-HAAAA. WHOD EFF. WHOD EFF. WHOD EFF. WHOD EFF. WHOD EFF, AHH-HAAAA." over and over for eighteen minutes and it sold 17 copys on itunes and the world lost its motion to stop and recognize the genius of the smash hit rock single "whod eff" by scott stapp

What a clusterfuck. ::) Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: Magic Transistor Radio on March 26, 2014, 11:46:12 AM To the original question, I can answer because in a previous incarnation I was a friend of Murry Wilson. After being fired by the Beach Boys he wished he had never been born. His gaurdian angel, Clarence made his wish come true. His wife Audree didn't know who he was. She was an unmarried librarian. His sons Brian, Dennis in Carl didn't exist thus the Beach Boys didn't exist. His Hawthorne home was owned by Dwight and Dorothy Hendrick (my grandparents). He saw a world where the Beatles were still wearing matching suits and mop tops in 1969. There music hadn't changed much. The summer of love was just a bunch of druggies playing crappy music. In this world Smile DID come out, but it was a collection of kids songs from Seseme street inwhich Bruce Johnston wrote songs for. David Marks didn't know Murry, but he was part of the crappy summer of love scene and got a career in construction. Mike Love existed, but was forced to get married and get a job as a mechanic to support his child and girlfriend. They get married and he struggled through life. Murry couldn't take it! He said he wants to live! Thus the Beach Boys still exist and this board exists.
Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: Andrew G. Doe on March 26, 2014, 11:54:52 AM Who is this "Murray" of whom you speak ?
Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: Magic Transistor Radio on March 26, 2014, 11:57:39 AM Ah shucks. Murry? I fixed it.
Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: Magic Transistor Radio on March 26, 2014, 12:32:21 PM Murry also told my previous incarnation that the ghost of Beach Boys future showed him what is going on today. Jon Stebbins wrote a fictitious novel called The Real Beach Boy which had moderate success followed by the failed Lost Construction Worker about his friend David Marks. AGD's website still exists but nobody knows what it means except him.
Title: Re: What If Paradox Post by: The Heartical Don on March 26, 2014, 12:37:01 PM Murry also told my previous incarnation that the ghost of Beach Boys future showed him what is going on today. John Stebbons wrote a fictitious novel called The Real Beach Boy which had moderate success followed by the failed Lost Construction Worker about his friend David Marks. AGD's website still exists but nobody knows what it means except him. I will tell you. AGD is a freelance spelling correcting pedant. Shortly, he will add 'Audrey should be Audree', 'Stebbons should be Stebbins', and 'Gaurdian should be Guardian' to his list of your ghastly, nay, criminal transgressions. Brace yourself for a hefty fine, and AGD is never prone to donate that to charity.
