ROOFTOP HARRY OFFICIAL RELEASE IN 2022, THE PROPHECY IS FULFILLED

If you dig the mid-60s Beach Boys sound, you may fall for this long lost 45 from Rick Henn of the Sunrays. Let it play through, it’ll grip you by the end. Beautiful!

other great bits of decades-old mike love stage patter: “we’re going to perform this song acapella, which means in the nude.”

I know it’s cheesy, but I still smile every time Mike Love makes the joke about taking “an intermission... followed by a nap”.

Carl is going to do a song called 'Wonderful'... only he's not going to do it until the next tour. So instead of that one he's going to do the only one he knows.

It’s a little surreal to hear middle aged men gush about Panic! at the Disco, but I guess that’s just what happens when a Beach Boys message board finds out about a song that contains lyrical references to Brian Wilson.

I know, right? The sound design and mixing was great. All of the ambient noises and chaos that happens... 

Love and Mercy got robbed. Zero oscar nominations. What a crock of shit.

My life, my love, my Melinda — God only knows what I’d be without her. She was the inspiration for “One Kind of Love” and just woke me to tell me the song has been nominated for a Golden Globe — my mind is blown! Thank you Hollywood Foreign Press and everyone involved in telling my story. And a huge hug to Paul Dano for his nomination this great morning! I’m now going back to bed for some sweet, sweet dreams.

There was a Last Waltz Live tribute show today in the Wisconsin Dells, but it was in bar. Oh, the pains of being underage...
