Better yet, you try to sing Beach Boys songs entirely by yourself despite the fact that there are five or six members singing at any given time in The Beach Boys.

You try to record multitracked acapella covers of the harmonies in Audacity.
Corollary: You do this (and the above, for that matter) even though you know you cannot sing.

We know AGD could tell us what song was recorded on a given day, session times, group members present, studio musicians and producer....but ask him what he had for lunch 2 days ago? No chance! Grin

We have the god given right to be critical. But if someone thinks they do, such as the lip-synch claim, we will defend the band to the end!

People come up to you at parties and, when hearing your name, recognise you as 'That guy who loves Brian Wilson'.

This actually happened to me the other day. I really don't know whether to be proud or ashamed  LOL

The Brianista Prayer

Oh Brian
Thou Art In Hawthorne,
Harmonied Be Thy name
Your Kingdom Come,
Your Steak Well Done,
On Stage As It Is In Studio,
Give Us This Day, Our Shortenin' Bread
And Forgive Us Our Bootlegs,
As We Also Have Forgiven Our Wife And Managers,
And Lead Us Not Into Kokomo,
But Deliver Us From Mike Love.
Amen.  ---hypehat
