Grammy Museum Los Angeles 9/18/12

[Sam_BFC]

Just to echo what others are saying re: the well informed contributions from Jon S et al; glad to see you're still around these parts.  I always read your posts, but rarely comment, because I don't really have much to add to the discussion!

[Quzi]

I'd like to take all of these echoes, add my own, and then feed the whole lot into Sunset Sound's best echo chamber.

OUCH !!

Discussing the band’s early influences, Love said, “The chorus of ‘Kokomo’ comes from ‘Smokey Joe’s Café,’ ” referring to the Mike Leiber-Jerry Stoller

Santelli’s timeline of Marks’ and Jardine’s early days “replacing each other” in the band

Jon, did you chime in?

I thought Santelli handled everything great. He gave Dave plenty of space to describe the nuance in the Al/Dave Dave+Al lineups, and the myth that surrounds the "usual" written history of the band's genesis. David did a perfect job, his crack that he was 10 when Surfin was recorded was a well-timed joke. But Dave's description of the timeline and history of he and Al's time in the band together was spot on. Of course Al isn't as clear about those days, or anything else. But it was a good natured and informative exchange, and Santelli gave it plenty of breathing room.

Brian yawning during Kokomo !!

Did the grammy museum jump the gun on the release date for the "50 Big Ones/Greatest Hits" sets?     Capitol doesn't like that!

Thanks!!! Made my day..

[the professor]

Playing it over and over--deep thanks. So much less of Jeff than at Dodger stadium. . . .

Dave's playing is great, and I can hear him singing. Check out his great solo on HMR.

And these men have to settle this issue of the future now before we all get too frustrated with the confusion. (see the raging thread on this subject).

Brian yawning during Kokomo !! 

Looked more like he is trying to keep down his dinner!

[CenturyDeprived]

Thanks Mr. moderator and Erik...and Century thanks for the nice chat after the Grammy show, we even talked to Joe Thomas right? Glad to hear you're a "We'll Run Away" advocate too.

Indeed, I'm of the opinion that "We'll Run Away" (as well as the coincidentally-named Bruce/Terry tune "Don't Run Away") are 2 of the most underrated (or at least generally unknown except by HUGE fans) BB/BB-related tunes from the pre-Pet Sounds era. Nice chatting with you and meeting Joe Thomas, he's an imposing guy and I can understand now how he could've previously been a wrestler!

[EgoHanger1966]

I think Brian yawning might be a side-affect of one (or a combination) of his meds. I don't think he's ever actually bored when he does that! Same deal with the eye closing and nose twitching, I'd venture to guess.

[Autotune]

Lovely video.
Reminiscent of all the things we're gonna miss once the wishes of those who don't want this group to keep performing are fulfilled.

Or..... he just yawned. Yawning isn't always either a sign of boredom or a side effect of medication. Sometimes you're kind of tired or not getting enough oxygen, and you yawn.

Capitol will be mighty pissed that you can buy it here in Australia, straight off the shelves, as of yesterday!!

[Pretty Funky]

You are right. Whoa!

On NZ itunes also. Just got the IIT single.

Jon, in addition to all you contributions to the board, thanks for clarifying Dave's rightful place in the band. I think your work is largely responsible for making Dave part of the reunion. It wouldn't have been the same without him.
