Just got the "Brain Wilson on Tour" DVD - Nancy's on that too, along with the Wondermints. Great band - the perfect backup for Brian.

I have that DVD, too! Yeah, the Wondermints are great! I remember when Brian Wilson first saw the Wondermints at (I think it was) the Roxy in Hollywood around 1994 or 1995--I was there! It was so funny because Darian Sahanaja came up to me and said "Brian Wilson's gonna be here!" I think that later led to Brian choosing the Wondermints as part of his back-up band.

Sure enough, Brian arrived and I got to meet him! I mentioned to Brian Wilson that I hired drummer Hal Blaine in part because he played on most the Beach Boys early hit records.

Brian ask me "Have we ever worked together?" and I said "no". I wish! I was tempted to say "Well, actually Brian we're supposed to get together tonight and jam, remember?" lol.

Brian asked me "What kind of music are you into? You like Country? You like the Beatles?" and then I started singing a line from the song Fixing a Hole from the Beatle's SGT. Pepper album: "I'm fixing a hole where the rain gets in..." then Brian Wilson finished the line by singing "...and stops my mind from wandering"! WOW! I was actually singing with Brian Wilson!

I complimented Brian on the Pet Sounds album, but he seemed a little shy about that, lol! Incidentally, Cato Kaelin was also there and I shook his hand as well. What a night!

Did you watch all the bonus material on the DVD? Did you see Darian? He's the Asian/Indian looking guy with the big, dark hair and the noticeable teeth.

If you're into Brian Wilson/the Beach Boys then you simply MUST get a copy of An All Star Tribute To Brian Wilson at Radio City Music Hall!!! My goodness, what an incredible DVD! Read about it on my profile page, hen go to BEST BUY or amazon.com, or somewhere and GET IT!

Woah! I met Brian at a book signing at the end of the Landy era - he was still in pretty bad shape. I was so flabbergasted to be near him that all I could manage was a mumbled "Thanks Brian, for everything". I wanted to ask him about the Survivors 45 he put out in '64, but I was too star-struck. To sing Beatles songs with Brian - too much!

I saw Darian on the DVD - he's one of the guys trying to teach Neal Young "Good Vibrations", wasn't he?

*sigh*....I don't deserve to be in your greatness.

You can sing, eh?

You know, I keep telling my friends that I'm not getting married again until a man can sing to me like Chris Issak...YUMMY...that man's voice is so awesome!
