I for one hope he finally breaks his silence about that time he met some Beatles in India.
Love the pic they went with on this:

If this ever comes out, the small Beach Boys-themed corner of the internet will explode. Literally.
Naturally, Mike will have Jason Fine on board for his book.
Actually, now that I think about it, to follow-up on the coup of getting Jeff Foskett in his band, I predict Mike will be working with David Leaf, with a foreward by Van Dyke Parks.
In related news, Al Jardine...... still lives in Big Sur.
Surely this will coincide with a "Pet Sounds 50th Anniversary" reunion tour.

I'm excited about the possibility. I've been seeing a side of him that I never have before from reading his Facebook posts. If the sensitivity and candor that some these posts show are any indication, we should have a good read on our hands.

It's been in the works for over a year and won't be out until over a year from now? Who's he got writing it, Bree Walker?

I was actually kind of hoping Brian's book deal would just kind of fade away, and none of these guys would, in the twilight of the band's career, go down the path of writing these types of books. Unless these books are whitewashed to the point of utter blandness, I don't see this helping group relations particularly (to say nothing of fans). The track record of other bands writing dueling "memoirs" is not super great, and they seem to very rarely truly alter anyone's perception of the individual.
Rather than these self-serving, sometimes axe-grinding memoirs, I wish someone would do what Mark Lewisohn has done for the Beatles and write the epic, all-encompassing biography this band needs, and have it coming from someone who knows their s**t but isn't writing it from one point of view.

I'm not worried about a scenario where the book is well-written and actually written with some humility and not from a place of uber-defensiveness. If it's a good, fair, accurate book, even if it obviously leans towards a focus on Mike, I think it will be recognized as such by the scholars and students of the band here, by pretty much everyone but perhaps the most troll-ish of fans.
I'm more worried about the scenario where the book is demonstrably inaccurate, or unfair, or groan-inducing (such as the majority of Mike's print interviews), and fans who point this out are then immediately pegged as "anti-Mike."
I just don't see anything good coming from this unless the book just literally BLOWS everybody's mind with revelatory clarifications and jaw-dropping humility.

Drinking game. A shot every time:
the phrase "my cousin and i" is used.
Mike alludes to Dennis being a man whore.
the word "positivity".
The Wilsons were into drugs, i wasn't.

Let Mike's list of excuses/justifications begin.....
Logged
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 real question is if the book can be perceived as anything but a measure of damage control and competition, due to its timing. Does anyone really think this book would be written and released at all (let alone in the next year or so) if not for "Love and Mercy" and Brian's upcoming bio?

Yes, I think it would be coming out without the Brian movie and book. Didn't Mike tell a British newspaper a while back that there are a lot of fallacies about me. I think he has some scores to settle. I'd like to read about the the time he fasted and had to be brought to the hospital, and what it was like to have a daughter married to your bandmate.
