Title: when you're alone, do you ever dance around like mike love? Post by: halblaineisgood on January 31, 2007, 09:40:49 AM I don't know if anyone else ever gets this feeling, but If Im listening to Fun Fun Fun or Little saint nick etc.
on the hi fi really loud, I sometimes get the compulsion to dance like mike love. Ya know, Ill do the pretend steering wheel, and the whip. Anybody?....As lame as his moves were, In the privacy of my home , In my deep dark private moments I emulate them.. I guess I'm a lame-o. but thats no news. Oh and sometimes I like to put on my turban and gold lame jacket and prance around to california girls. Maybe not that last one....

Title: Re: when you're alone, do you ever dance around like mike love? Post by: Uncomfortable Seat on January 31, 2007, 01:46:08 PM I didn't dance around but I did make Mike Love-style lyric-related gestures onstage at a gig once because one of the chicks in my band liked it when I did that. I may do it again sometime. :brian
Title: Re: when you're alone, do you ever dance around like mike love? Post by: Fun Is In on January 31, 2007, 03:28:56 PM I've been forced at gunpoint several times to do just that, but I usually wake up from the nightmare before the part where I'm also forced to chant "don't F with the formula" while levitating at a TM retreat.
Title: Re: when you're alone, do you ever dance around like mike love? Post by: the captain on January 31, 2007, 04:12:15 PM I don't--but I do occasionally poke fun at him, awaiting the inevitable backlash of "Mike Love is just as great / talented / etc. as any other Beach Boys." And really, I don't care much either way. It's just fun to watch the fireworks.

Post by: Fire Wind on February 02, 2007, 06:24:20 AM I have to say that I do. And why not? It has character. Dancing to stuff like, say, LDC, Little St. Nick, Santa's Beard etc, requires a little goofiness.

Title: Re: when you're alone, do you ever dance around like mike love? Post by: Wilsonista on February 02, 2007, 09:07:08 AM jack Rieley told this hilarious story about Mike listening to the mix of Marcella and "practicing" the hand gestures and dance moves that he would add to his part at the end. :-D

We baldies must unite! Nah, I'm not balding, though I'd have every family reason to be. :-D I apreciate a good laugh about Brian, Mike & Co when it's not in the "he's an asshole, hope he rots in hell" area. Title: Re: when you're alone, do you ever dance around like mike love? Post by: melissalynn on February 02, 2007, 02:11:32 PM Can't say that I do...and if I did, I'd slap myself.
Title: Re: when you're alone, do you ever dance around like mike love? Post by: PongHit on February 02, 2007, 03:06:40 PM I do -- but not when I'm alone -- I only dance like Mike when I'm in a very crowded place with a ton of strangers... like a shopping mall or airport. Does that count? Title: Re: when you're alone, do you ever dance around like mike love? Post by: Andrew G. Doe on February 03, 2007, 06:12:10 AM Even Mike Love doesn't dance like Mike Love these days.
But Brian does. Spooky. :o Title: Re: when you're alone, do you ever dance around like mike love? Post by: PongHit on February 03, 2007, 11:08:33 AM Even Mike Love doesn't dance like Mike Love these days. But Brian does. Spooky. :o Hmm... I guess Brian has recently started to do a "seated on a stool" version of Mike in a sense, yeah... Title: Re: when you're alone, do you ever dance around like mike love? Post by: halblaineisgood on February 05, 2007, 05:07:26 PM On the smile DVD, I got really freaked out during the rock, roll, plymouth rock section.......with brian's hand gestures......I guess I did see it in concert first, but I didnt rememeber them......It was wild..

Spooky. :o Hmm... I guess Brian has recently started to do a "seated on a stool" version of Mike in a sense, yeah... I wonder if Mike could sue Brian for this? Title: Re: when you're alone, do you ever dance around like mike love? Post by: halblaineisgood on February 07, 2007, 01:29:05 PM Haha....I was thinking....what would be some BB's/BW songs that would be totally innapropriate for Mike Love style Lyric Related Gestures(MLSLRG's)....Til I die?
Title: Re: when you're alone, do you ever dance around like mike love? Post by: Pretty Funky on February 07, 2007, 04:48:36 PM How about this Mike Love smiley?
:banana Title: Re: when you're alone, do you ever dance around like mike love? Post by: melissalynn on February 07, 2007, 05:09:16 PM How about this Mike Love smiley? :banana that almost made me fall on the floor laughing. I never noticed it. Lil banana man does dance a bit like Mike. Title: Re: when you're alone, do you ever dance around like mike love? Post by: matt-zeus on February 08, 2007, 02:32:47 AM Maybe Mikes dancing career is based on the banana man?
And Brians is based on this - :smokin Title: Re: when you're alone, do you ever dance around like mike love? Post by: southbay on February 09, 2007, 04:23:00 PM Uh, no. But I have adopted "That's a bummer when Ms. Ross can't make it" as a catch phrase. Nobody gets it.
Title: Re: when you're alone, do you ever dance around like mike love? Post by: Mahalo on February 21, 2007, 08:49:58 AM Does anyone know where I can buy a gold jacket like Mike Love had???
Title: Re: when you're alone, do you ever dance around like mike love? Post by: Pretty Funky on February 21, 2007, 11:45:07 AM Pimps-R-Us ;D
Title: Re: when you're alone, do you ever dance around like mike love? Post by: oldsurferdude on February 21, 2007, 04:16:08 PM The gold jacket - forgot about that one-how about the white , flowing robes? :lol
Title: Re: when you're alone, do you ever dance around like mike love? Post by: Mahalo on February 21, 2007, 05:12:26 PM Sometimes I dance like Mike Love in my underwear singing a Student Demonstration Time/Barbara Ann/Monster mash medley. If I can get the gold jacket, or the white flowing robes with a tambourine, as well as a fake beard I will compete on next seasons American idol. Don't tell anybody though, O.K.??

Post by: Uncomfortable Seat on February 22, 2007, 09:25:02 PM The gold jacket - forgot about that one-how about the white , flowing robes? :lol I've performed in a robe before, on a few occasions, in direct emulation of Mike. It was only at open mics though - never during a real gig. Title: Re: when you're alone, do you ever dance around like mike love? Post by: MBE on February 23, 2007, 12:38:43 AM I sometimes do it to be funny when I watch his old fims. His dancing ALWAYS makes me laugh. At other times I try not to do it but fail. ;D

You be the Judge. http://www.harpmagazine.com/news/detail.cfm?article=10925 Title: Re: when you're alone, do you ever dance around like mike love? Post by: RangeRoverA1 on May 08, 2014, 03:45:24 AM And the winner of "The most entertaining thread ever" award is... this one. Some folks never fail to amaze me by how creative they are in the humor field.
My answer is no, I don't or, as the OP clarified the question a little - no, I haven't. What I do usually instead is imitate various singers' voices. It's a great fun to sing like Mike, even sth. that beyond register. If I have to deal with bass, I up my voice to the point where I feel comfortable & get into the character, so to speak. That said, I never can nail "Monster Mash", esp. the creepshow coda with diabolic laughter. Title: Re: when you're alone, do you ever dance around like mike love? Post by: Orange Crate Art on May 08, 2014, 06:25:51 AM I wasn't alone, but while goofing off, yes I have danced like him. He does it better than I do :lol
Title: Re: when you're alone, do you ever dance around like mike love? Post by: J.G. Dev on May 08, 2014, 07:28:34 AM Not gonna lie....I've flapped my wings during "wild goose chase now" ;)
Title: Re: when you're alone, do you ever dance around like mike love? Post by: MaxL on May 08, 2014, 07:35:46 AM I've pointed to a few imaginary ladies whilst listening to Surfin' Safari in my time.
Title: Re: when you're alone, do you ever dance around like mike love? Post by: southbay on May 08, 2014, 08:00:56 AM Dance? No. Quote, point, generally impersonate from time to time? Yes. The guy is absolutely hilarious in an inexplicably cool kind of way.
Title: Re: when you're alone, do you ever dance around like mike love? Post by: Cabinessenceking on May 08, 2014, 03:43:02 PM Mike Love dancing is so awkward. Even when he was young he was doing the 'grandad dance'. Mike Love must be the squarest dude to ever enter popular culture.
Title: Re: when you're alone, do you ever dance around like mike love? Post by: leggo of my ego on May 09, 2014, 10:42:41 AM no, I dance around more like Chuck Berry.
Title: Re: when you're alone, do you ever dance around like mike love? Post by: Mendota Heights on May 09, 2014, 10:48:30 AM I do. :)
Title: Re: when you're alone, do you ever dance around like mike love? Post by: joshferrell on May 09, 2014, 10:51:43 AM that sounds like a cool title to a dance song.. maybe Lady Gaga will record it :lol
Title: Re: when you're alone, do you ever dance around like mike love? Post by: Sheriff John Stone on May 09, 2014, 02:37:00 PM Mike Love dance? No. But I do occasionally pull out Brian's "Roller Skating Child" dance. My wife likes it, too! Round and round and round we go...:o
Title: Re: when you're alone, do you ever dance around like mike love? Post by: Pretty Funky on May 09, 2014, 05:28:18 PM Still not dancing as I said back in 07, but now I have this high opinion of myself sometimes. Pretty vivid too...it's like this. So in my mind I am very much a ladies man. I admit to that, yes. Life in prison as a ladies man -- just imprison me with a few ladies, that's all I ask! No, it's true, I do like girls!
Title: Re: when you're alone, do you ever dance around like mike love? Post by: Gabo on May 09, 2014, 10:22:15 PM Do you wanna dance and hold his hand? Tell Mike Love you'll be his lovin' woman?
Title: Re: when you're alone, do you ever dance around like mike love? Post by: Rocky Raccoon on May 10, 2014, 06:52:08 AM When singing along to Good Vibrations, I do find myself sometimes doing that little finger tremble he does when he sings "she's giving me excitations."
Title: Re: when you're alone, do you ever dance around like mike love? Post by: RangeRoverA1 on May 10, 2014, 07:17:12 AM In this video of GV you can see Al having his ML moment. Not sure if it's done for mockery, it looks weird anyway. Wonder if other bandmates attempted Mike's dancing.

Title: Re: when you're alone, do you ever dance around like mike love? Post by: Lonely Summer on May 14, 2014, 11:57:36 PM I often dance around like Landy-era Brian when listening to Night Time, In My Car, or Love and Mercy.
Title: Re: when you're alone, do you ever dance around like mike love? Post by: halblaineisgood on May 15, 2014, 02:53:04 AM .
Title: Re: when you're alone, do you ever dance around like mike love? Post by: RiC on May 15, 2014, 05:56:37 AM I don't dance.
But when I dance, I always dance like Mike Love. Title: Re: when you're alone, do you ever dance around like mike love? Post by: RangeRoverA1 on May 18, 2014, 05:43:25 AM No, but sometimes I walk like Rhianna. :o If you walk like someone twice younger than your age, it's quite remarkable. Oh wait, is it some jargon expression you overheard from a bunch of kids in the bus? If so, I'll check it in the 'webs.Title: Re: when you're alone, do you ever dance around like mike love? Post by: Jim Rockford on May 18, 2014, 06:46:41 AM His dancing is way too advanced for me. ;)
