Why would Murry beat up his own sons for?  I have read that Murry hit Brian in the head with a 2x4 and beat up Dennis and i do not know if Murry beat up Carl!  My question is Why?

If the Wilsons were raised today, he probably would be just as abusive. It would just be more taboo. "Tough Love" isn't appreciated so much these days.

On our way through this "backstage" maze, Bruce joined up with the group and said hello, singing "It Never Rains in Southern California" and joking with some of the older ladies. I'm not sure if they knew he was a Beach Boy or simply an enthusiastic elderly gay gentleman.

1. Abuse ran in the family. Brian's Grandfather Buddy (father of Murry) was abused as a child, and swore to never mistreat his children. Unfortunately he duplicated the very scenario he detested. When Murry tried to protect his mother from Buddy’s violent outbursts, his father would beat him with a baseball bat and chastised him for his lack of respect.

2. Alcohol.

I, I love the colorful clothes she wears, and she's already working on my brain. I only looked in her eyes, but I picked up something I just can't explain. I, I bet I know what she’s like, and I can feel how right she’d be for me. It’s weird how she comes in so strong, and I wonder what she’s picking up from me. I hope it’s good, good, good, good vibrations, yeah!!

The 2x4 story is most likely apocryphal.

My step-Father beat up my brothers and me as kids.

You must lead a sheltered life not to know domestic violence occurs in every tier of our society, be it 1960 or 2013.

IIRC it was Dave Marsh who reviewed a song by Madonna in his Heart Of Rock 'n' Soul.

Regarding child abuse, he called that 'a basic human mystery', which it is, IMHO. In particular, the proliferation of it across generations is a riddle (although very obviously the Wilson brothers did not continue the 'tradition'). This seemingly endless chain over time is something that seems to be compulsive, something that may occure against one's own best plans, wishes, and pledges (see Bud Wilson, in an earlier post here).

Also, I think that it may be due to a parent not really being up to the task of rearing children. For a large number of people, it may be simply asking too much, too heavy a burden. As a result they can go into a frenzy, a state of not being oneself any more. And sadly, beating a kid into submission can be the result. It's often the case that such a parent bitterly regrets his/her acts... soon after they were done.

Sexual abuse seems to happen along the same patterns, over generations, incidentally.

I would tend to agree.  Likely a spanking with a stick or paddle grew to 2x4 proportions over the years.

Try any of the following...

Because he "loved those damn little punks so much!"
Because he probably had a very small penis.
Because they kept singing off key.
Because David Marks' mum wouldn't put out.
Because DVDs and Playstations hadn't been invented back then so you kinda had to make your own entertainment.

But did Murry really pull out his glass eye and make Brian look in the empty socket??

EEEeeeewwwwww - I got hit as a kid too -- but the glass eye thing creeps me out!!

Murry was just downright mean, mean, mean.

Hey Little Tomboy is creepy. Banging women by the pool is fun and conjures up warm summer thoughts a Beach Boys song should.
