Title: Mike is 80 ~ Say Happy Birthday Post by: Shady on March 15, 2021, 12:06:19 AM Happy Birthday Mike 🎂
Thanks for all the wonderful music, moments and great live shows Thanks so much Title: Re: Mike is 80 ~ Say Happy Birthday Post by: juggler on March 15, 2021, 12:30:06 AM We thus enter the era of the octogenarian Beach Boys.
Credit where credit is due. Making it to the big Eight-O is an accomplishment for anyone, and a perhaps double accomplishment for any successful performer in the field of popular music. I'm sure i'm not alone in disagreeing with and/or disapproving of some of the things that the man has done in his life, but I still salute the guy for his longevity, talent, healthy choices and incredible work ethic. So happy birthday to ML!

The german newspaper F. A. Z. is running a story about this: Bei den Beach Boys war Mike Love der Widerpart seines genialen Cousins Brian Wilson. Heute wird er 80 Jahre alt. https://www.faz.net/aktuell/feuilleton/pop/beach-boys-saenger-mike-love-wird-80-17244561.html Title: Re: Mike is 80 ~ Say Happy Birthday Post by: Greg Parry on March 15, 2021, 07:57:06 AM 80 years is a wonderful milestone for a Rock star Which rock star has turned 80?

Happy birthday, Mike--the ball's in your court!

Here's hoping to a little birthday bash with your family (including your Cuz of course) Think I might spin The Beatles 'Happy Birthday Mike Love' :lol Title: Re: Mike is 80 ~ Say Happy Birthday Post by: juggler on March 15, 2021, 07:05:31 PM Mr. Wilson has chimed in:

Think, where the eff do you think you'd be right now if it wasn't for the guy you've made a career of tearing down? It wouldn't be pretty and you would have never seen the kind of life you lead, the house you live in, your portfolio, the skads of unearned money you've raked in. Hardest working Beach Boy?? I think not because you live, eat and breathe being on the road and on the stage. Without that you're stone cold dead so I don't want to hear that it's some kind of really hard "work"! Your managers do everything for you so all you have to do is walk on stage and be the clown you so rightfully are. Nope, no birthday greetings for you Mike because you're the most hated, embarrassing clown the world of rock and roll has ever witnessed. Title: Re: Mike is 80 ~ Say Happy Birthday Post by: Rebel on March 15, 2021, 09:10:34 PM Imagine being so petty and bitter that you trash talk a guy on a message board who will never see this. Nor care. Like him or not - he’s part of the reason we’re all here. And he will go down in history longer than any of us.
Happy birthday Mike. I don’t always agree with you, but you’ll never see this so who cares!

Nope, no birthday greetings for you Mike because you're the most hated, embarrassing clown the world of rock and roll has ever witnessed. That you’ve posted a comedically deranged screed twice (once here, once at the Steve Hoffman forums, where you’re being laughed at) shows that you are a deeply unpleasant person. I’ve seen your posts and either you have a massive hard-on for Mike Love that you can’t admit to yourself, or you’re a psychopath that the cops need to keep an eye on.

Title: Re: Mike is 80 ~ Say Happy Birthday Post by: Lonely Summer on March 16, 2021, 10:36:03 PM I think Mike will go on performing until he just can't do it anymore - following in the footsteps of Chuck Berry, Little Richard, Fats Domino, B.B. King.

King. Are you using "can't do it anymore" as a euphemism for "dies" - ? That's what it sounds like. And I agree. There is, of course, that famous quote from Dennis (or was it Bruce?) about wheelchairs. So Mike wouldn't be the first or only BB to think like this. Yeah - okay - happy birthday Mike, for a few days ago.

So Mike wouldn't be the first or only BB to think like this. It was Denny. The quote floating around is "I can tell you the day The Beach Boys will no longer exist - never. We'll be on stage in wheelchairs." And Denny's prediction partially came true, as Brian was using a wheelchair at least for a while during his Summer 2019 tour. |
