Yep, can’t tell you how many times I’ve seen the rules broken here regarding politics, specifically:

Quote
2) Debate is fine; when it crosses into personal attacks, it becomes a different matter.   Publicly posting calls for members to be banned or for members to quit will not be tolerated. Any concerns should be addressed privately to the moderators.  Expletives or personal insults directed at other board members and/or moderators will not be allowed as signature lines, status, or as part of a poster's account profile when posting to the board. Any violations of this will result in a ban.Each case will be looked at on an individual basis.

6)Harrassment via unwarranted posting or via PM will not be tolerated. If someone has a beef with another member, taking it to private message is preferred rather than clogging the main board up. However, if recipient of said message asks the sender to stop contacting them, it needs to. Further contact after that will be addressed on an individual basis.

And they always get away with it. And who are the people doing the attacking? It’s the people calling the other people with different beliefs “fascist” “pricks”. Please for the love of it look up the definition of fascist before you use the term again.

Ban me for bringing up politics again, so be it. I’m with mtaber, I’m out of here anyways if people are going to continue to bring up politics in such a harassing and intolerant way.

^That’s why I’m bringing it up now . I don’t care what end of the political side anyone is; the nastiness has gotten out of hand. Election is over (Thank God) . What’s NOT over is the wonderful music we’ve gotten from this wonderful band, and that’s what we should be concentrating on.

Hey we’re getting the boxed set...that should count for something

I’m extremely excited to get this set.  We really can’t expect much “new” music from Brian and co.as the guys approach their 80’s, but the idea of sets like Feel Flows coming out every year or two is the next best thing.  Accolades to Howie, Alan, etc are well deserved!

On a side note, has anyone heard anything from Emily recently? She used to post frequently but I haven’t noticed anything from her in quite a while.  I know she was dealing with some highly stressful stuff a year or two ago, just wondering if she’s ok. She and I used to go back and forth with Rocky two years ago.

I was wondering about her too. Hadn’t seen her on Facebook either; I used to have her number but I’ve changed phones since then. I hope everything is ok

Answer: Trump supporters should be executed!

That's funny given the common image is of Trump supporters carrying assault rifles to "inspect" demonstrations, intimidate voters, storm armed into state capitols and plan abduction and murder of elected officials etc. Often seen driving around with ISIS-esque pickup technicals with huge flags and banners. Correct me if I'm way off here  Grin


Btw I don't feel the need to go down the political rabbit hole, just correct your victimhood example.

What part of “no more talking about politics “ is so difficult to understand?

Final time I’m saying it

I just uploaded a copy of a Smile bootleg onto YouTube. Funnily enough, the piano demo of Surf's Up was tagged as the "Brian Wilson Lead Vocal 2019 Mix" some people are getting. Yes, the claim did include the entire first movement (with a different melody and ending to the backing track) and the falsetto outro from it, so this might suggest it's NOT a re-remix of the Smile Sessions version, but rather something closer to a '67 Surf's Up.

That's not how the site's copyright detection works, it'd only take a few seconds of similar audio for the algorithm to find something to flag.

Sorry, I'm a few days late on this conversation. I have been having issues with album reviews getting blocked now. Apparently, I can't play a song in the background while I review them anymore. At least some songs.

In the meantime, Elton John has seen fit to release his mega Jewels box set today and there's an Elvis Presley box set of his June 1970 Nashville sessions coming out Nov. 20. So there certainly seems to be a market for box sets nowadays.

Out of curiosity...any idea of the gestation period for those two sets (in comparison to Feel Flows)?

You mean from official announcement to release? Elton was Sept 17 and Elvis August 7.

Box sets are viable now for sure, trendy even. As soon as the Sgt Pepper one happened it was game on.

Reports on Endless Harmony that there was an offer for a 60th anniversary album.
I asked, was Brian and Al’s refusal related to the circular firing squad episode that then held up  Feels Flows.

I have little doubt that Brian and Al considered the stress of dealing with a bandmate with narcissistic personality disorder, and decided against it. Who needs that kind of stress when pushing 80? Not them.

Mike has burned all of his bridges.

Here is the quote from EH, written by SaltyMarshmallow, if anyone is interested:

Quote
I guess the implication was lost on the last page, but apparently I have the green light to say it now: according to a reliable source (someone who works at Capitol), the group were approached about doing another reunion album earlier this year. Brian and Al both flat-out said no.

And I agree, CD. I think TWGMTR is a perfect send off from the band, and Brian had already wanted to do a follow-up album years ago which was refused by Mike due to the “writing alone in a room with Brian” thing (I think).

Would any of you want to be alone in a room with a guy who berates your wife and talks sh*t about your mental health to the press? *edit, I think many wouldn’t mind using the room as a UFC cage for a while, but in Brian’s case, I think he just wants to be free of Mike for good.

It's not the end of the band when there is such an absolute game-changing goldmine of vault material left to be released, such as FF.

Plus, Brian and Al can always go back into the studio and record more new material if inspiration strikes. And Mike can do the sequel to his viral super bowl mega smash, Santa Goes to the Viral Super Bowl: All Things Must Pass II.

Things are good. It's moving forward.

I can’t believe I never commented/responded to this. Awesome!! Thanks Howie!!

In the meantime, Elton John ... and there's an Elvis Presley box set of his June 1970 Nashville sessions coming out Nov. 20. So there certainly seems to be a market for box sets nowadays.

And I can’t wait for From Elvis in Nashville too. Been promoting both that and Feel Flows for at least a month or so whenever I can.

Disappointing of course, but I can’t say I blame them after Mike’s actions this year (and any time since 2012).

Certainly not surprising that Al and Brian were not keen, given what has gone down in recent years.

In case I was not clear, my reason for posting in this thread was just to wonder out loud if there was any link between 60th anniversary discussions and the previous Feels Flows hold up. Hey Jude has said that the reason that was used for the hold up shouldn't logically affect a Feel Flows release.

Hey Jude has said that the reason that was used for the hold up shouldn't logically affect a Feel Flows release.

I'm of the opinion that regardless of what knowledge insiders might have in determining the reasons of what could be causing the FF hold up, that nothing in the history of this band is necessarily unrelated to BBs-related decisions that happen in the year 2020.

I think the wounds (namely, Mike feeling wronged) stretch back decades and decades, and old resentments could be informing all sorts of decisions indirectly, FF included. To me there's a logical throughline of dysfunction. If Mike wanted a 60th anniversary album to happen, he's got to be pissed and hurt if the other members don't have interest in that - and Mike, when he is pissed and hurt, has a history of lashing out.

The trophy hunting show, the Trump show, all of the fallout from both of those, couldn't have *helped* the chances of a reunion album, nor could all of that bad blood have been a good thing for FF. The very best case scenario would be that those incidents would be neutral and have no effect, but realistically it just shows not only a breakdown of communication between the camps, but a concerted effort by Mike to conceal and hide things he intends to do with the brand name until the very last minute in order to minimize any pushback or make it too late for anybody to do anything about it. It's all terrible behavior that is so incredibly dysfunctional and childish for someone his age. Aren't people supposed to gain more wisdom as they get older? Mike seems to have the emotional intelligence of a six year old.

But it will be an incredibly happy day when FF finally comes out. It's literally the only thing that would get Mike, or the brand name - sadly due to his actions in 2020 with the brand name - a morsel of good press these days.
