Uncut is asking fans to send in questions for a Mike Love Q&A by this Friday at noon. The piece will hopefully make for an interesting read!

And production aside, I’d so much rather hear a 14 year old David Marks shred some guitar on Chug-a-lug than hear a 51 year old Mike Love sing about bangin some chick in a swimming pool.-rab2591

As did I. I was gonna ask about him and his demands for him to work with Brian, but I figured it will  either be covered by somebody else or ignored, so instead I asked if there is actually any plan to release any of the Celebration (his late '70s band with the Brian/Al/Mike penned hit "Almost Summer") material digitally and whether he really is gonna release a solo album or whether he's just BSing on that subject like he's done since like 2003.

I sent in the same question in regards to the Celebration material.

I wanted to ask him that question in September at the Meet & Greet at Harvard Books in Cambridge but the staff only gave me about 50 seconds with him :/

Hey myKe! Why do you think people think of you as a flaming asshole?

                 Do really think you and Br00th are the real Beach Boys?

                 How many more times will you be married?

                 Why do your solo albums suck so much?

                 Besides your excuse for not meditating(  Roll Eyes), why the R&R HOF speech?

                 Will you ever have the balls to perform from now on without your hat?

                 Explain the need for Br00th.

                 And finally, at what age did Clarabell (Howdy Doody) become your role model?

I asked about Mike's surfing, about writing All I Wanna Do with Brian, and about his songwriting collaborations with Dennis.

Anybody hoping for anything particularly revealing should temper their hopes considering Mike is publicizing this on his own Facebook page.

This doesn't look to have any likelihood of being like that revealing Rolling Stone piece from last year where the writer was able to be with Mike for an extended period of time and then form impressions afterwards and away from Mike.

Ironically, the best shots at something interesting for this Uncut piece would be specific oddball, non-confrontational questions about obscure pieces, like someone asking him about "Celebration" or unreleased Dennis tracks or something. Though, it should be noted that not too long ago a question about collaborating on "Pacific Ocean Blues" quickly was morphed by Mike into talking about "Summer in Paradise" as I recall.

But I hope we don't get softball questions that play into his perceived victimization, like the "What do you say to people who say you're the villain?", or "Would you like to work with Brian again?"

"Hey Mike, is it really true that you inspired Paul McCartney to write Back in the USSR?"
"Mike, how did you write the lyrics to Good Vibrations? Tell us about how you came up with the hook again!"
"Would you ever want to get in a room and write music with Brian again?"

Looking forward to the Q&A  Grin

My questions for Mike, in no particular order.

  • Where can I find the serial number on my bicycle?
  • How do I join the club gymnastics team?
  • Why do pigeons roost on my roof or in my gutters?
  • I brush regularly and gargle with mouthwash everyday, but I still have bad breath. Why?    
  • What was the one scientific discovery that has absolutely baffled you?
  • Do I look fat?
  • Is it wrong to kill someone who is infected but not yet a zombie?

I asked if we'd ever see the version of Please Let Me Wonder with Mike on lead vocals get an official BB release. One of the band's finest songs, and even though this version doesn't touch Brian's lead, it's still mighty surprising this hasn't been released yet. It's one of the band's best-known songs other than the big hits.

My first attempt failed and then I realized I had copied and pasted the period at the end of the email address. Removed that, then it worked. If it still doesn't work and seems to be some other thing, I'd be happy to send your question for you Smiley
