So are Dan Akroyd and John Belusshi responsible for getting Brian Wilson to rejoin the Beach Boys toursin 1976? I saw a clip of them dragging Brian out of his room, dressed as Cops, telling him he was in violation of some code for writting songs about surfing, but having never actually surfed. This was in 1976, They dragged him out of his room out to the Beach and forced him to surf. It was pretty funny. It's here on YouTube.

I was privileged to see The Boys Live In Concert, over 2 nights, March 1978, in Sydney, Australia. I had a backstage pass on the second night, watched the show from side-stage, & got to talk to Brian as he first-entered the stadium off the crew-bus. A good concert, but there were clearly, sadly, tensions amongst the band. But .. Boy .. that memory will stay with me all my remaining life .. fantastic.

@runnersdialzero333 I guess I'll go with the several books and about a dozen interviews, you can go with your fantasy. have a nice life.

@Mozart1220 he didn't "trash it mercilessly". he said, "i don't like these lyrics and i think they'll alienate our fanbase." he said, "i don't understand them." he's never lied about that.

but y'know what? he was given those lines he questioned and didn't understand and y'know what he did? he sang them. sang his ass off. listen to the end of "cabinessence", one of the songs he specifically questioned. there's mike, singing his ass off. he trusted brian's judgement and did what he was told.

@runnersdialzero333 Obvviously you haven't seen the vids where he praises "Smile" as a great work, after trashing it mercilessly in 67 when it could have made the Beach Boys as respected as the Beatles.
