"I know the guys are good. And I am sure that the concert will be a lot of fun. But as I said, after seeing the Beach Boys, I really don't feel much need to see any of the splinter groups (Mike&Bruce or Brian&Al&Blondie)."


you must attend.  otherwise, someday you will wish you had.

- i know

What in hell are you going on about?

Ang, correctly, is keeping the discussion appropriate to the thread.
I respond to her entreaties and correspondingly comment on the book.

not certain who those two are SMiLE, but Ang and I share divergent opinions.

that's what it's all about, anyway

yikes !  she's back !

ok. will it be Brian ?  can it be ?  is Brian a writer of books ?

- no

you are correct, sir.  look to Al for some sort of hint.  he gets fidgety and blubbery.

- he also opens all his gifts before Christmas

they played the Gammies Feb 12

the reunion announcement  was therefore prior, prolly Dec or Jan

yes !  and Bruce and David and Darian and Scott and Paul.  Now we have a compendium !


btw, over the years Mike Love has been the epitomy of consistency in his recollections. Solid and unchanging.

- unlike

ok.  Ang wins this round !

the book will be a must have for us all.  It will make for a fascinating read and discussion !
the book must be approached with some trepidation.  It will contain a host of historical facts,
like the last one, and what else?  Will it reflect the influence of others?
Will it be a mere moment in time for Brian? (meaning it could be quite different if it were compiled
the month before or the month after publication.)

- book

Thank You Mike Love for warm woolen mittens.

humour is important to Brian.

"Summer Of Love"


well, it's a Love thing

and the opening tune for the tour could be a real surprise.

from "Gershwin", "They Can't Take That Away From Me",

Brian: "The way you wear you hat" (to Mike) and they trade leads
riffing on each other a la "Surfin' Bird".

- they can't take that away from me

additionally, filled, the other side, the balance so to speak, actually helps to
further the possibility.  That a Brian, Mike, Al, David, Bruce, Blondie, and Ricky
shindig is such a topic of discussion will only enhance the idea.

- pro or con

Hi Ang, Brian Wilson, Tony Asher, and Mike Love say;

"You know it seems the more we talk about it, it only makes it worse to live without it.
But let's talk about it."

- cheers !

Mike Love pickup lines.

"Meditate on this"

Thank You Mike Love

Rocker and Micha, do yourselves a huge favour, and attend.  Go, and you will be surprised and delighted.

I have seen Brian this year, and the Beach Boys many times in 2015.  Both are events not to be missed.

BB2015 are much improved.

- do not miss it

"we'll be doin' it in our eighties"

- almost there

thank you for reminding us of Brian's statements prior to C50, Andrew.  You are correct,
and there is something quite similar happening right now visa vis  some of Brian's replies.

additionally:  "Maybe we'll be coming back someday. Together in the end to sing with you again."

- etc

ash, the best part is the photograph with the ISIS dudes rushing in
in their Toyotas with the three toy drones is smart formation !

to  the "terrorists" :

- ha ha ha

1980's Beach Boys disapproved of Iran.
times change.
2015's Beach Boys disapprove of ISIS (likely)

- erego

Thank You Mike Love

correct.  and often carting about a suite of mental disorders.
they are criminals, and society has developed systems to deal with them,
deranged and otherwise.

terrorists ?

- humbug

good pick, good question CD.
an odd little song.
i do not believe that it is about feminist notions,
rather it appears to me to be a strange waltz about the circle of life.
they pulled it from the vaults for KTSA; it was written and recorded about 10 yrs earlier.

- i like it

good news !  thanks

12. "Ten Little Indians"   (Bombay?)

you could have said that, FF

11. "Hey Little Tomboy"  (also creepy)
