If you search through vintagemusic's post history, you'll find not one post that is less than 3 full paragraphs.  I'm not saying there's a limit on how much anyone should post...but honestly, there's a time and a place.  This new album topic as it stands right now, does not call for large dissertations being written.

You'll get no argument from me Adolph, just tell me which freakin button to push, so I can resign my membership here,
and you and your pals, can meanwhile get elected to the selection committee

I no longer wish to be a part of this group, keep it, it belongs to you Adolph, just tell me which freakin
button to push, and I will never come here and disturb you and the other "superiors" again, fair enough
Adolph?

Roll Eyes Quit being such a drama queen.   A little criticism won't hurt you.

Surely, the proper time to compare your situation to the death of millions of Jews is when people are vaguely annoyed at you on the internet.

That's what I thought.  It wasn't just me but a few members that mentioned it.  It was an observation, nothing more.  No need for people to get in a huff over it.

Wholeheartedly agree. All of this senseless bickering is ridiculous - I mean, i guess it's expected: we're all humans trying to boost our ego every chance we get. But come on guys, it's a Beach Boys forum, let's not get out of control lol.

Ps: Vintagemusic, please don't leave! I too enjoy your posts (ie, they're usually insightful, thought provoking, and they've never pissed me off). I'm glad you're not starting topics about your sex life, or rambling about what a joy acid and Love You are together, or picking senseless fights at every turn like other members here have done!

I have nothing against Vintage; his Beatles posts were interesting at the very least.  But when one gets into a big huff over one little remark made about their pretentiousness, and then starts comparing themselves to the Holocaust, well they are practically *begging* to be mocked.  And I won't deny such requests.   Kool-Aid Man

"Waves of love" is also a phrase found in the lyrics to "Winds of Change."

Hmm. No it isn't. I could have sworn I heard it in a BB tune, though.

Pitter Patter. That's it. Although I guess they say "ways of love" there.

So, erm, nevermind.

Re: vintagemusic, just checked out the Beatles/Threatles thread, and frankly, his posts are very hard going, and close to unreadable because they're so very badly written (as they are here - if you mean to say "post-capitol era" then write "post-Capitol era") and definitely not proofed before being posted. He may be saying something of interest but it's difficult to tell. Is English his first language ?  If so, he should be thinking remedial classes.

I've always considered reasonable grammar, spelling and punctuation a prerequisite of being an averagely educated person. It helps you get your point across without being misunderstood. But maybe that's just me being unreasonable.

Mmmmmmmmmm...

No, I'm not being unreasonable in this supposition. It's a matter of basic education: there are people posting here whose first language isn't English, and they put him to shame. Note, I posted this after his tasteless "Adolf" comments which, as someone who lost family members in 1941 to the Nazi regime, I could legitimately raise an almighty stink about. But I'll just assume he's as ignorant of history as he is of basic grammar.

BTW, that's not bullying, that's pointing out that any ideas he may have to share are diminished by the poor presentation.

There was a time (as I am sure you're aware, but some others on the board may not be) when Brian's band was universally respected. Now after a decade and change, it is not unheard of for Brian to tour constantly and release new albums on a consistent basis, so the inevitable backlash is in full swing.

"They're not the Beach Boys!" When that is the chief complaint about Brian's band, you know they are doing something right.

Also jealousy though, yes!

But regarding the problem some people have with the "essays" that vintagemusic writes. Maybe to some it's not very readable, but - hey - you don't have to read it. And if we had to discuss everyones spelling errors here, than we might as well start a new sub-board...

You are exactly right, and in some cases, I did just that and didn't read further. No excuse for spelling though, as we do have Spell Check here.

Great critique Mr. Doe. Yes by the way I do know about history, especially the part about Nazi's. If I call someone Adolph, I guess it means, I am calling
them an intolerant ass. Yes I have spelling errors, I type quickly, have some visual problems, and probably should have used more caution.
I won't be  making anymore long posts, the question I asked, which still has not been answered, is which button do I push, to delete my
membership. I have my new album to worry about, my kids, my business, maintaining my home, and my disabled wife, the financial meltdown,
and I guess now, I should return the awards I've won for my songs, because apparently, I can't speak English well enough to deserve keeping them.

Yes I admit, I made some long posts, used some bad grammar and punctuation, and I as I said, I have visual problems on this laptop, I am remiss
in educating myself how to operate computers. I thought I was talking about the new Beach Boys album among friends, and didn't realize (until now)
what a burden it's been for some of you, Somehow paragraph formatting is coming out wrong when I type posts, so enough said, I'm sure I"ll be fine
elsewhere, and you'll be relieved of the burden of having to talk down to me.  Had you been truly concerned about my typing skills, surely a private email
would have shown a bit more class than to dress me down  in your posts, that goes for your friends as well. My view is that you are more comfortable
when free thinking newcomers to sully your otherwise pristine board are gone. OK enough said. All I need to know is which damn button gets me off of here.

I was educated in a way that encouraged, discussion, dialogue, questions, theories, I didn't realize there was some sort of Andrew Doe litmus test as to
someones level of formal education, income, political affiliation, or viewpoints. I hah, thought this was a Beach Boys discussion forum

But back to the album ...

The interview with Probyn thread has a lot of new stuff.

-- Joe Thomas is overseeing the band in the studio. Probyn said he thought he was an "executive producer."
-- Bruce seems to have written at least one song for the album.
-- Probyn has only played on a three or so tracks (at the time of the interview -- he seems to have done more since). Many more were recorded last year and early this year not including him (such as the God radio song).
-- He describes some of the other songs as sounding like "80's Beach Boys." If that means "Somewhere Near Japan," I'm in. If it means "Wipeout," we'll see.
-- Some of the songs feature a small chamber orchestra group.
-- Brian has co-written most of the songs, with Mike helping on a couple.
-- There may be theremin on at least one tune.
-- Apparently D'Amico and Walusko will be on the tour!
