It was initially unnerving to say the least seeing his comments about Marilyn. That increased ten fold when Brian posted.

Smart move by the mods pulling the thread.

I normally just read and never join in, but I must say, that thread was AWESOME. I was hoping it'd last longer; I love reading all my favorite posters comments...then to have a guy who was borderline nuts yet somehow partially convincing at times was extra fun!

Still I wonder if he means it or is just playing the other side as a passive aggressive "f*** you" to Brian.

Business just picked up.

Yeah...for better or worse this "story" ain't going away so soon.

Excellent well-worded posts by Jason, Buddahat, Don, OSD, and Custom Machine to show support of the original thread staying intact. Very good responses by Billy and GF to support their views and why they agreed to abscond with the thread. Hopefully we can somehow rejuvenate the original thread and tie it to this one. Maybe the slanderous comments and statements that violated the rules can be edited out somehow. Maybe Mr. Daro will come back for a proper dialogue; I believe it would be entertaining and educational at the same time.

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!!

I second this.

I really don't understand the majority of responses here.  Everyone wants to know what really happened, but when we get a visit from someone who was there you rage against him.  Sorry, it doesn't make sense.  Because he doesn't like Marilyn?  I'm sure she's a lovely woman, but she doesn't need an army of white knights on the Smiley Smile forum to protect her.  And somebody not liking one of their friend's spouses is hardly unusual.  He's entitled to his opinions, popular or not.

So, to sum up, does this mean that Murry was right about Mr. Schwartz?

Gerry, if that was really Lorren, I wanted to see if he remembered the Beach Boys recording sessions, specifically the Rhonda session with Murry. On the session tape, you hear Brian ask Lorren to "get the guys" to come back into the studio after their break.

Because he was abusive and very, VERY likely spinning the truth to such a degree that his input was worthless. Just because he was "there" doesn't make his account reliable. Should he come back though, sure, he has as much right to speak his mind as anyone. I never intended to run him off, if my comments were the cause, and I've spoken my peace anyway.

It's not that Marilyn *needs* defending so much as I hate to see a good person so shamelessly put down. Call it whatever you want. Although I detest that particular term, as my understanding of it is where the guy hopes to be "rewarded" for his kindness. And somehow, I doubt Marilyn is interested. I call it being a decent person. Potato po-tah-toe maybe. Either way, that's the mother of Brian's children and he's probably the reason we're all here. Not to start that again, but is it really so crazy to think she deserves to be respected and defended if need be?

In any case, that was just one of many problems with Daro if you read this thread.

If he is Daro, that's certainly the best (worst?) trolling of all time and more than a little pathetic...

VDP was one of the few people Darro wasn't insulting, in fact praising.

There is so much Bullhonky out there regarding who are the heroes and who are the villains, that I could never come to any definitive conclusions about anybody who hovered around their inner circle.

In real life relations there are no heroes and villains, just humans with flaws.

Don't remember. Brian wanted the lyric to include "Good Vibes" instead of vibrations. He argued that the expression that everyone used was "vibes" not vibrations. I acknowledged that, but convinced him that using vibes would trivialize the lyric.

Ah... note, "everyone", not "Loren's hot wife".

"Everyone" would include Lorren's hot wife Linda, ol' pal o' mine. (batting my eyes your way)

Brian has always stated very specifically that his mom told him about dogs & vibrations (just as he's always said it was Danny Hutton's calling everyone "Darlin'" that was responsible for another BB classic title). Thus, it's reasonable to assume that if Darro's wife had inspired him, he'd have told Tony "hey Loren's wife keeps saying "Good Vibes", what a great name for a song!" or some such.

As for VDP's tweet... I'm slightly flattered that he seemingly referenced a post of mine but the fact is, his original tweet on the topic was some 8 months old.
