Lucky UK. As for the Low Countries.... It seems... Well, this is the sentence in Dutch, as I found it:
De film draait niet in de nederlandse of Belgische bioscopen
Which when translated literally says, "The film is not being shown in Dutch and Belgian cinemas". It would be nice to believe they mean "not at the moment" but I'm rather afraid that's not what they mean. :=(

I'm not sure the rest of the band loves that album. I know Bruce has criticized the album art more than a few times and in the 2nd "Brian Wilson Songwriter" DVDs, he dismisses the album as a whole.
It's strange how he dismisses Friends while Sunflower is his favorite. These two albums aren't THAT different after all. To my mind they are. If they were paintings, I'd say Friends was done in watercolours (or pastels) and Sunflower in oils (no pun intended).

This kind of stuff is something i love about BB recordings. These "mistakes" add a cool human element to the recordings that make them all that much more interesting and enjoyable to listen to. I couldn't agree more, CM. In the version of "Kiss Me Baby" on the Warmth of the Sun comp and maybe elsewhere, the powers that be saw fit to remove one of Mike's whoa's (during the "sync mistake" the third and last time round) and emasculated the song in the process. What makes it even more inexcusable is that they removed the wrong whoa! The previous two (in sync) occur before the beat, but now the third one sits lamely on the beat, destroying the whole effect. It wouldn't surprise me at all if at the time Brian was taken with this misstep and even felt it added something special to the song.
