Brian probably didn't care
at all about what they were doing there, maybe didn't even understand the purpose of it.
I'm with Brian on this one. What's the point of having the Beach Boys host a faux video show where they play songs by "hip" bands that they're actually not in to? I mean, from a record company' perspective I guess it makes sense which is to say that it doesn't make sense to anyone else. The Beach Boys already have hipster cred. They don't need to court it. Besides, it would be that much cooler if they had Brian saying "Our new album comes out June 5th and while you're waiting, here's the Four Freshman singing "Graduation Day" or "Hi, I'm Al Jardine. Here's The Kingston Trio with "Greenback Dollar"'.
You're with Brian? And you assume that Brian is against this because... he went ahead and did it?
I make no assumptions. It was a humorous reference to the post above mine.
