I hope we'll be allowed to politely ask him 'challenging' questions though, such as in relation to band dynamics and poor artistic choices (HCTN disco version), without it being seen as trying to rub him up the wrong way. Otherwise it'll just be a gooey love-in and who wants that?

I bet he would be a great source of information here. Bruce has posted really nice things at BBB. Just don't ask him why the roadies always seem to have his mic positioned wrongly or call him BJ.

David doesn't post, period. Carrie handles all that sort of stuff for him.

Well, we'd have to kick him off the board in about a year or two anyways.

So... What are the odds that a member of this very board  Grin, who has direct access to Bruce, asks him to post on a Q&A thread here? I suggest that such thread be carefully monitored so as to avoid a Stephen Gaines Thread-like fiasco.

If you want me to, I will. Just don't give me the anticipated sh*t if he says "no".

Did he?

The BBB interface is disgusting. I can't stand it.
Those were my thoughts exactly. The design of this one board is more stylish. No wonder every BB celebrity got over here, eventually or gradually.

Yes, they must come here for the stylish appearance of the board…   Roll Eyes

Does he really need a reason? All he has to do is peek in here and read through a few threads to understand why a firm "No" is all the answer that is needed. Wink

Appearance is not as important as interface. The way BBB works is so poor, its just not worth visiting. You can only read one post at a time!

The interface is very poor. But the appearance is atrocious.

sh*t sent on a postcard to the usual address.

There was no harm in asking, but I think we know it would be something of a long shot!

Now, when will you be in the company of Mike again??

Really?  You think of it as a loss?  He can post all he wants at BBB and we can still hear what he has to say, without having our lovely board sullied by the, presumed presence, of an actual BEACH BOY

Thanks for asking Andrew. Greatly appreciated.

However, I get the vibe that he won't come near here because unlike BBB, most of us won't tongue his posterior. Shame though, because even those of us that might have disagreements with him very much respect his contributions to The Beach Boys. And hee was part of the Hoffman board and frankly answered questions, even stuff about how shitty Going Public is.

I suspect that he's staying away from here though because he would have to defend the indefensible position of Brian Wilson and Al Jardine not being able to continue on as Beach Boys. Most likely, Bruce is just fine with not working with Brian and Al, and that touring with Mike is easy.
