So according to Mike, he, Bruce, and Al never did anything more than pot, if that.

Mike always gives pretty funny interviews -- I like his reasoning for Brian not being in the band: "See, Brian and his people, the people around him, are focused on Brian Wilson the soloist. I guess they want to make him Billy Joel or something, or an Elton John, a piano man."

There's no way Bruce sat through 11 minutes of 'Here Comes the Night' thinking it was a good idea to put on an album in its entirety without an 8ball present.

Mike just loves throwing in the words "esoteric","introspective" and "objective" into every interview of the last 10 years.
