Bossaroo' picture was more humor than it was hate. It only seems mike's fanboys lack any sense of humor about their master. Let's be honest, Mike is one strange dude being a old guy trying to be a teenager forever.

I wasn't talking about the picture. I was talking about his insults.

Bruce is a two-faced assh*le.

I apologize to Scott Totten, John Cowsill, and any other members of The Beach Boys, especially Bruce, who might read this^.
Yes, and they should consider the source. Earlier today someone was reprimanded for a Brian and Melinda comment, and rightfully so, yet you have to take flak for calling out the poster. It wasn't until I joined this forum that I have come to realize how many assholes are Beach Boys fans. I am happy that so far, the ones I have met face to face have been very nice people.

Melinda and Brian haven't mentioned Bruce in ages

I wonder if Mike was no longer touring (which I would doubt will ever happen while he is able-bodied), if Bruce would ever get an invite to join or guest in Brian's band? Or if Bruce's pro-Mike position within the politics of BB-land would not make him welcome anymore?

I guess he was on good terms with  Brian's camp in 1998 when the Imagination promo video was made...

Bruce is a two-faced assh*le.
while we're dredging up past interviews, here's a good one

http://www.tcpalm.com/entertainment/beach-boy-bruce-johnston-you-cant-tell-me-aging-ki

It still amazes me that the most violently hateful poster here was graced with an on-screen "Thank you" during a M&B concert. A most strange confusion. Or a paradox.

I'm the most violently hateful poster here? wow. you're really not looking hard enough.

I don't claim to hate anyone, and I'm certainly not violent in any way. but like everyone else here, I have opinions about the band I love and of those who currently lease the name of that band and have the gall to say the kinds of things M&B say. and like everyone else here, this is where I come to voice those opinions.



Calling a BB member "a two-faced asshole" is way too much. Your comments towards Mike Love and B Johnston are usually attacks. And insults are not opinions.

most of Mike's comments about Brian are thinly veiled attacks. and Bruce's comment about "dusting Brian off and rolling him back out" is absolutely repugnant.

Brian doesn't need to say anything. The guy twigged a long time ago that the frothing at the mouth section of his fanbase will do all his fighting for him.

Another f***ed up thread started yet again by people whom have the least to gain with Brians recent output.

OP asked a legitimate question and the excessively thin-skinned among us decided to twist words and assume it was meant as an anti-Brian/Melinda thread. The only people starting sh*t are the people who decided to go on the defensive and assume this was intended as an anti-Brian/Melinda thread. If anyone thinks this is (intended or otherwise) an anti-Brian/Melinda thread, I would probably suggest that they have incredibly overactive imaginations or their hero worship is such that anything sets them off.

I don't think Melinda's comment was cold; the impression I got from watching the interview back in 2004 was that she corrected herself after the fact. I don't think "some Bruce" was ever considered a slight or insult on her part...but it's probably destined to become the next "probably" on this forum at this rate.

We're all BEACH BOYS fans. Some of you are dog piling on a guy who wasn't trying to start a problem and who asked a legitimate question. Seriously? Grow the f*** up. He wasn't insulting Brian or Melinda. For f*** sake, people, has this board really sunk to this kind of low?

It's what the E Street Band and the Beach Boys have most in common.  They BOTH, in a sense, have 'some Bruce'.  [and had some/have some David]  But really?Huh  ONLY the Beach Boys HAD some Brian.

whose balls am i busting? nobody here that i'm aware of.

if Mike and Bruce say horrible things publicly, I may call them out on it. if you or anyone else dislikes what I have to say, you can either ignore it or challenge it.

I'm really not an angry or disagreeable person. but I am passionate about the things I love, and Brian and the band's music is near the top of the list. I'm not happy with the way Mike & Bruce are handling the band's legacy, and I'm appalled by some of the things they say and do. this is where I come to discuss such matters.

Blessing could be just a "blessing", or it could in fact mean grudging agreement, fear of money-draining Love lawsuits, or a mixed-emotion cocktail of all of the above. Let's not paint it as all roses when it's safe to assume the answer is probably not entirely clear cut or black and white. Blessing seems to have an inherent positive vibe, when I doubt it's an all-smiles situation, even as the checks are admittedly cashed by all shareholders.

Can you? The tour had a set end date and not all participants were willing to continue with the then-current setup.

1. you dont' know what Melinda meant by that
2. You don't know how Bruce and Melinda have spoken to each other in person
3. It's 11 years old
4. Even if she was a total jerk to Bruce on t.v. once in an interview 11 years ago, it's just 1 comment in an entire lifetime.

Bruce is a two-faced assh*le.

I apologize to Scott Totten, John Cowsill, and any other members of The Beach Boys, especially Bruce, who might read this^.

you really don't need to apologize for me. if I overstepped any lines, the mods will deal with me. I guarantee they have all heard much worse, and likely couldn't care less what I have to say anyway.

Bruce should apologize for the utter disrespect he shows for Brian in the interview I posted, and for the disrespect he has shown to many Beach Boys fans over the years.

I do think the opinion posted here did come off too harsh, but in all fairness, first-hand stories posted here can confirm the bolded part, as they were posted by folks here who either witnessed it, or on the receiving end of it. So, in this case I'm going to let it slide, as IMHO being harsh with a fan without provocation is worse than anything Mike or Brian have ever said to each other, by a LARGE margin. 

As for the attacks back and forth to each other in this thread, please end it now. Take it off the board. I don't care who started it (not to say I don't see), but I'm finishing it.

Failure to comply will be dealt with promptly.

Thank you.
