So, Bruce said the BB were mostly inspired by Benny Goodman and Frank Sinatra w/Nelson Riddle.  Sure, okay.

Yeah, and Mars Volta were inspired by Rod Stewart and Henny Youngman.

I'll buy THAT for a dollar.

The boys answered my question last night - mine was the one about pranks! I figured that it was something different, so hoped it would get picked and it did! I had a smile about as wide as my face when I saw they had replied! It was great to know some information that I had never seen before and I hope that you thought this was a good one to ask.

In response to the post about the new t shirt, I REALLY love the girl version of that but it's not on the UK store yet. The UK one is awful. I hope it's at the gig next week so I can get one.

Just gathering the "favourite song / album" answers:

Brian - "California Girls" / 15 Big Ones
Michael - "Good Vibrations" / Concert
Alan - "Their Hearts Were Full of Spring" (huh) / Summer Days
Historical - "The Warmth of the Sun" / Sunflower
David - "God Only Knows" / Surfin' USA

Mike specified that he was talking about the '64 album, not the '74 double. That all-important "in."  

Pretty sure that's what I typed But yeah, the titles are sometimes a pain.

A rather sorry affair really, but then again what did we expect? The guys clearly are at a phase where they don't want to be pushed any more (at least in interviews or Q&A's) and that sits ... relatively ok by me (I guess).

To the question which album he would re-made if he could, Brian answers "Endless summer"..... Is that a Brianism?
