Spector was an ass in the movie?  Can't imagine why since he's been known to be a complete jerk.   Probably the most accurate part in the movie.   Hey, that doesn't mean I don't love Spector's work. 

Feel the same way about Matthew Sweet - great master of melodies and writes nice crunchy hooky ditties, but total jerk overall.

I love how the drums thunder in after the guitar riff.

Quick detail about the Stamos film, from 2000. The notorious. The controversial. The angrifying.

The Van Dyke Parks character ultimately had a name that wasn't VDP. I seem to recall that it involved "Sam." But is this correct? And, for a spot in the bonus round, can anyone remember what (if any) last name he might have had?

Many thanks....

I found a VHS of the original broadcast in a box not two weeks ago.  I don't think I could stomach it again.  But I've slept a little less well lately just knowing it's in the room. Sometimes in the middle of the night I suddenly turn the lights on and I swear it's moved a little closer.

On the other hand, I'm pretty sure I recall capturing Mike's post-broadcast interview on local (L.A.) news that night.  It might be worth slogging through fast-forward just to report on that.

When "Summer Dreams" aired, they had the late Karen Lamm on for the post-game wrap-up.

Well, shoot me an e-mail some time.  One of these days I'll get back out to L.A. and we'll trash the place.  Just don't tell Bruce I'm in town.  Not looking for another pistol-whipping.

question about the phil spector scene, what song is being played in the background? i figure it's a generic form of be my baby to sound like the wall of sound. Who played it? assuming not the fake Wrecking Crew

this movie really turned me on to the BB, i liked it. The smile parts were funny. The guy who played VDP is great...i think he's on dazed and confused.
about summer dreams, what Dennis songs did they use?

I love Dazed and Confused, which character did the VDP dude play on that movie?  I don't remember him.  I don't think they used any Dennis songs on SD, but the one song that "dennis" was playing at Karen's house was so pretty, I don't think it was a Dennis song, but a Bruce Greenwood song.

Anthony Rapp is the actor theyre talkin about, check out his IMDB here: http://imdb.com/name/nm0710829/ .

I read somewhere that it is infact a Bruce Greenwood song that he plays in that scene at Karen's house. I think theres an mp3 of it on the official Bruce Greenwood site.  Pirate

what song is brian playing on the piano after they're 'overdubbing' add some music to your day? it sounds kinda like the end of the piano demo of H&V/im in great shape/barnyard..
also, what's everyone think of that scene where brian just goes off playing the shortenin' bread riff...I assume it was the real brian who recorded it like he did with In my Room/I get around/He's a Doll/perhaps the With me Tonite riff? You think that was Mike's idea to add that into the movie (shortenin scene)? I wonder what he said to brian when he asked to record it for them...."say brian, can you record that little riff you incoporated into a bunch of songs?" wierd

Did anyone else notice that when Brian is playing "In My Room" on the piano, not only is it strange that they have 60-something yr. old Brian singing the part, but they dubbed someone else singing the falsetto part "tell my secrets to."  It's like rough old man Brian voice and then all of a sudden young, clear falsetto.  LOL
