Brian at Capitol today (7/12/11)

[Wrightfan]

Per his Facebook and twitter. Three pictures posted and they seemed to be teasing something but left us hanging.

Thoughts?

Also, he's at Capitol to listen to the final edit of The SMiLE Sessions.

...and to collect his advance!

[Mr. Cohen]

Brian: "So I hear you got that edit I did of 'Heroes and Villains' in January?"
Guy on the phone: "Yeah."
Brian: "And I hear you got the finished takes I did of 'Look', 'Holiday', 'Child Is Father of the Man', and 'Roll Plymouth Rock'?"
Guy on the phone: "Yep. We never thought we'd find 'em."
Brian: "Can all of them. Take 'em off the box right now."

Brian's been hired as the official greeter in the Capitol lobby.  He'll be giving directions, holding the door, and putting on a warm smile for visitors.

he lost some weight i think

[Dave in KC]

looks like the tummy is bigger

looks like the tummy is bigger

It hasn't leaked to the media yet, but Brian & Melinda have decided to have another baby.

For real though I believe he is in great shape for a 67 year old man.

[Pretty Funky]

Even better for 69!

[♩♬🐸 Billy C ♯♫♩🐇]

Looking better then he did a few weeks ago, that's for sure. Had me worried there for a bit.

[The Heartical Don]

So, 'Had To Phone Ya' and 'Busy Doin' Nothing' will be fillers on the box. Doesn't bode well...   

[Lowbacca]

First pic rocks!! 

Ya, maybe it's about the SMiLE sessions. Maybe Capitol wants to release another BBs output. And maybe Brian was just in the general area and decided to stop by and hang around in the lobby. Good thing is: Brian looks happy/healthy. Not a common thing with Brian at Capitol Records, eh?

[Lowbacca]

Maybe they had steak in the Capitol canteen today...

[The Shift]

I don't think they're really at Capitol. Reckon Brian and Dennis pinched that sign back in the '60s… these pics were taken in his laundry room.

In great shape, lickety-spit for the agriculture...

He does look good for a 69 year old...factor in his life history and one can only be happy to see Brian looking so well.

I'm going with the explanation that he and Dennis stole the neon sign back in 1966 and that we are looking at Brian's laundry room....effing classic.

[The Heartical Don]

He looks very fetching indeed... that is because he managed to sneak away from hiswifeandmanagers for the first time in years, and did a cameo as the new Capitol doorman. None of the new 20-year old execs recognized him, they are into Lady GaGa and suchlike.

Great Post! One of the few that actually made me laugh!

Brian: "In it's place, you can put the 1966 versions of Shortnin' Bread I did. It really rocks you know."

Brian: "On second thought: no. I'll save that one for my rock 'n' roll album."

"Put me through to Ken Mansfield's office... Thank you... Hello, Ken... Ba ba ba ba Barbara Ann... Ba ba ba ba Barbara Ann... Oh, Barbara Ann..."

[hypehat]

"Yeah, trust me, this will be hilarious..... Is that a Mr Phil Cohen? Yes, this is the big BW speaking. I've been talking with the wife&managers and the other members of BRI and we think that you're right, we're not going to be releasing the SMiLE boxset this year, or indeed in any year. I have no idea what came over me, but I now see that we were wrong. Just letting you know. Peace out, man"

*click*

"He bought it! Looks like I owe you five bucks, Mike."

[Iron Horse-Apples]

Looks like Capitol have spared no expense promoting the boxset. Here is Brian and Mike on the SMiLE-MOBiLE, soon to be touring the ganglands of LA, bringing peace to all!

[Pretty Funky]

....and make that extra large with the works, and I want some ice-cream....chocolate with nuts, you have coke? I want a large coke and some cake...I like cake with whipped cream on the side!

Oh...and one final thing.....just bill Capitol!!!
