Title: Brian's year with Kevin S. Leslie Post by: Autotune on February 06, 2009, 02:59:20 AM Perhaps this period in Brian's life has been documented elsewhere and I missed it. I'm referring to the year during which Leslie lived with Brian, after Landy was kicked out. What was the relationship between Brian and Kevin? Was Landy still pulling the strings? Are there any interesting stories to be known? What are the whereabouts of Leslie these days?

Gaining some weight, smoking, I think Landy still had control secretly and then Keven was kicked out once this was discovered. That's all I really know about that year for Brian anyway.

It would be interesting to find out Leslie's take on the whole Landy period. I have never heard of him being interviewed. Title: Re: Brian's year with Kevin S.

That said, 'surf nazi' was a phrase Cameron Crowe used in his 1981 book Fast Times At Ridgemont High. Title: Re: Brian's year with Kevin S.

Actually AGD the term "surf nazi" has been part of colloquial surf speak since the 50s and refers to any surfer who is over zealous in their devotion to their sport - I live in a "surf nazi" town. The other link is that California surfers in the late 50s/early 60s thought it was an amusing idea to get dressed up in old war surplus German uniforms (Prince Harry style). Also, if I recall correctly, their might also be "surf nazi" references in Tom Wolfes' "The Pump House Gang" - although I have no intention of going to the library and re-reading the book just to verify my recollection.
