I can't believe my old login still works here after all these years!
So for my first post in forever, just wanted to link to the first live performance of SMiLE:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mz8WLJlwGikThinking back to this night in 2004 when so many of us at what was then known as The SMiLE Shop were refreshing our browsers to find out how Brian & his band were going to construct SMiLE that night. I was at a friends PC and trying to get any info possible, and there was news coming in of new lyrics and transitions and it was just an insane night of everyone on the edge of their seats while this was happening in London. Days later an old school dude of the SMiLE Shop community hit me up on AOL IM with a download of this exact audio which I immediately burned onto a CDR and still have. If the fellow once known as Chalk & Numbers is lurking out there somewhere still all these years later, thank you again.
I've just been nostalgic recently, and I wanted to see if I still had access to this board after all these years.
If you remember me: Hey! How are ya?
If not: What's up? Started on the SMiLE Shop at 19 years old in 2001 and here I am now 37 years old.
Time flies, but our love for this band remains true as ever.
