I would really like to agree with you guys. I understand that Mike did what he felt he should do back in the days, i know thats tough seeing your family fall apart, not to mention your business. Very delicate situation.

But then, i saw "The Beach Boys, An American Family". And i dont know, but why re-write history? I know its a "romanced" biography, but i mean, is there an excuse for that? I respect Mike Love  for his contributions to BB music, but thats all.

We all have our flaws, though. Its better to know them than to point them.

Oh come on please tell me you didn't just say you let a VH1 movie change your opinion on Mike. 

Is just me or do many of the Brian fanatics equivocate Mike bashing as a bizarre way of showing their support for Brian? You CAN like and respect both ya' know!

Ron i just gave the 'main' reason why i dont ''love'' him, which by the way wasnt the movie but the need for someone to rewrite the past. And i personally think its kinda sad. But who cares?
That said, i respect Mike very much for his works, and All I Wanna Do is one of my all time favs, vocal and all.
