From The Guardian review -

(At one fantastic juncture, Love posits the theory that Brian Wilson’s mental problems would have been lessened had people realised that there was at least one other genius in the band, namely Mike Love.)

Does seem to be alot of Mike going *What about me/us!" Could have done without Kokomo over the credits too

To get them together at Paradise  Cove and not use it seems very odd.

Bit surprised when this popped up on my twitter feed -

If right wing pieces of sh*t like Guy Fieri and Mike Love would just keep their horrible views to themselves, no one would know how horrible they are. But this is an era where pieces of sh*t seem to *want* everyone to know they're pieces of sh*t. Fine. At least now we know.

 Succinct and to the point thanks Donny!

Well said.
That's  why the the whole being forced to tour bs is just that. It doesn't make ANY sense.

Off to see Fleetwood Mac next week.
Might have to break out my POB T - shirt

if nothing else fdp likening the bans to an "intellectual purge" gave me a good laugh!

video up on Brians instagram account from tonights show. they had it going live.

Whooosh.

It's hard here sometimes  ('scuse the pun) ....

Hilarious. Watch the whole thing. Vic Berger is an editing genius and a huge BBs fan.

This showed up on my twitter timeline retweeted by the most unlikely non- bb source. Someone who normally tweets politics/social issues. From Australia.  Must have got a bit of traction on social media. A lot more than the song !

Great job.

How time flies .....

For the sake of clarity: the only source of "Beatles/Eagles" etc. being mentioned was Heywood's sarcastic paraphrase of the news item. "Beatles" (or any of those bands) weren't mentioned in the piece from TMZ or anywhere else outside of this discussion thread.

Thank you !!! Didnt think it was that subtle.

"We were going to have Rolling Stones/Beatles/Eagles/Fleetwood Mac but we decided to give the money to charity instead. It wasn't that no one wanted anything to do with us. Trust us"

Yeah right!

  People say dumb things. 

They sure do.

Mikes worked pretty hard the last few years trying to change the worlds perception. Other than a couple of own goals i think he'd made a bit of progress.

A quick google around the news sites and their comments would indicate it's all been for nothing. The reaction has been pretty consistent everywhere. Except for a bit of a laugh at another forum. I'd wondered if there was anything Mike could do to get some criticism there. With a couple of exceptions - nup!

Comments are entertaining

"Not really bothered. They've done nothing of interest or relevance in well over 40 years. Idealistic, creative young world-changers all too often become bitter, money-obsessed right-wing cranks (apart from Mike Love, of course, who was always a wanker...)"


I was told it was just this board who had issues with Mike.  Not quite !!!

Being picked up in the mainstream. Saw references on twitter.  Damage will be done soon even if they decline eventually

Mike doesn't  put money in Brians pocket. Brian earns money from the entity known as The Beach Boys  playing his music.
"The Beach Boys" is what makes the money. It belongs to them all. Take the name away and see how much money Mike would make touring. Mike obviously knows this, he agreed to the deal.

Thirded.

A needed diversion

I don't follow sports, but are these really "major sports figures"? The musical acts seem to be third-tier as well. The Beach Boys? Really?

I didnt want to appear to be defending or excusing anything but i thought exactly the same Adam when i read it the second or third time. Quite a few assumptions stated as facts.

Yes. Its still awful, predatory and rape.

Dylan and Macca on friday, Neil Young and the Stones on Saturday and The Who and Roger Waters on Sunday is apparently the rumour
