Natalie Duncan liked him!
The Beach Boys were really friendly, especially Mike Love. He was hilarious. He kept talking to me throughout the whole filming, just talking away about how I should sing Etta James. And he was very disparaging about Public Image Ltd, which I found hilarious. But that really put me at ease.
― mike t-diva, Friday, 28 September 2012 09:24 (eleven years ago) link
So, the Beach Boys are on "Later" with Jools, along with Public Image Ltd and Muse? With NatDunc..
Since when did "Later" have *interesting* lineups?

OK, shall I defend Mike Love?
There are two "Beach Boys"
One set can do "The Hits" and be the "Beach Boys Experience" type funfunfun-ness, the "standard" edition, and not be expensive ticketpricewise..
And the other set can do the "Deluxe / Directors Brew" for those buffs that insist on the 'authentic' experience, and pay higher ticket prices.
There's also the matter of the health of those guys. I'd have thought this would be a blessing to Brian, as he was pretty much talking about retiring after his "Gershwin" concerts were done.
― Mark G, Friday, 28 September 2012 09:37 (eleven years ago) link
*Spoiler Alert*
Last nights gig was interesting in a few ways:
They played for 3 1/2 hours, not including a 15 min interval.
Most of the concert was continuous, like a medley format but without actually truncating songs (most of the early ones are within the 3 min rule anyways)
It started off sounding as if it was gonna be chronological, then they dropped Disney Girls, but the concert was fairly biased to pre-'66.
They did a few weird covers (California Dreaming) but also some deep cuts, Add Some Music, Good Timing, All This is That and a lot of early tunes from off the beaten path like Kiss Me Baby and The Ballad of 'Ole Betsy.
There were far too many people on stage for the early numbers, like 5 Guitarists and 4 Keyboard players.
For the BW lovers, they did In My Room, H&V, Good Vibrations, Our Prayer.

And he was very disparaging about Public Image Ltd, which I found hilarious.
Not that I'd expect Mike Love to be a fan but that PiL performance was the only thing on the whole show which wasn't totally appalling.

California Dreaming has been a Beach Boys thing for decades.

So I shall see, in all likelihood, BW's last ever show with the Beach Boys tonight. Bet he always hoped it would be on a cold, rainy autumn day in a shed in one of the unlovelier suburbs of north west London.

lol:
“Two things that we know for certain: Mr. Love will never allow the facts get in the way of his ramblings and he will never miss an opportunity to regurgitate his venom,” the Eagles’ spokesman wrote in a letter to Love’s publicist Jay Jones, which was copied to The Times. “Lest we forget, during his acceptance speech at the Beach Boys' Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction, which was ostensibly about the importance of harmony and how the Beach Boys ‘love all people,’ Mr. Love attacked Paul McCartney and Diana Ross for not being in the room. He then went on to say that ‘Mick Jagger has always been afraid to get on the stage with the Beach Boys."
“Since 1994 when the Eagles reunited, they have performed more than 600 shows worldwide,” the letter continued. “Neither the band nor its reps are aware of any promoter accusing them of being ‘overexposed.’ Regarding Mr. Love’s statement about Eagles tickets being sold for $5, according to our records that did happen on June 21, 1975, when the band performed at Wembley Stadium with the Beach Boys.”

Francine Kelly at 5:25 PM September 28, 2012Brian Wilson is William Porter Wilson's first cousin. Will Wilson is a high-level CIA official and King William of Orange, the true and current King of England. Both Brain and Will are Reptilian Draconian Vampires. I am Will's queen, wife, mother of his son, and a CIA MK-Ultra Project Monarch Intelligence Asset. I contacted Brian a couple of yars ago to give him this information. He never responded to me. I am concerned that Mike Love's "heartless" decision may really be a political one about bloodlines. Mike's decision came after I contacted Attorney John Gaines of Chicago-based Gaines & Puljic about seeing the son I conceived with Will. I have many reasons to believe that Will's brothers and Brian's first cousins -- John G. Wilson, Thomas S. Wilson and Francis S. Wilson III, all of Chicago -- abducted my son. Please Google Francine Kelly and The Reptilian Agenda for my YouTube interview with Greg Carlwood of Higherside Chats. See my intelligence reports on www.network54.com/forum/535171, and Google operation haystack agentfk for my interview with Jesse Randolph. I think it's high time the Wilson family takes responsibility for their actions. And please remember that just because Brian Wilson is an alien doesn't mean that he's not the great guy that everyone loves.
Uh.
