Apparently, Mike Love is suing Brian Wilson to the tune of "millions of dollars" for using the Beach Boys name, which apparently Mike is the sole owner of. I'm not sure of the particulars but it smacks of jealousy, greed, and general Mike Loveishness. Is anybody else completely befuddled by such obvious money-grubbing avarice? Does anyone actually believe Mike's lawyers comments that "it's not personal?" Just curious. I always hated Mike Love with such a passion, even when I was little and saw him singing "Long Tall Texan" or whatever-the-fuck-it's-called on television. What a douchebag. What an F-ing douchebag. Anyways, discuss!
