[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Mike Loves speech at The Beach Boys induction to the Rock N' Roll Hall of Fame


And I think it's wonderful to be here tonight, but I also think it's sad that there are other people who aren't here tonight. And, uh, those are the people who have passed away, those are the obvious ones. But the other not-so-obvious ones are people like Paul McCartney, who couldn't be here tonight because he's in a lawsuit with Ringo and Yoko. That's what he sent a telegram to some, uh, high priced attorney in this room, you know."


"And that's a bummer, because we're talking about harmony, right, and the world. If we can't get it together in America and in England, and harmony within our groups. I mean, believe it, you can believe it. The Beach Boys have their own 'interstescene' (not sure what Mike is trying to say here, and neither does Mike) or whatever you call it, squabbles. But that's a bummer when Ms. Ross can't make it, you know?" (referring to Diana Ross, who was having legal battles with the other 2 members of The Supremes.)

"The Beach Boys have continued to do, about, we did about 180 performances last year. I'd like to see the Mop-Tops match that! I'd like to see Mick Jagger get out on this stage and do I Get Around versus Jumpin' Jack Flash, any day now. And I'd like to see some people kick out the jams, and I challenge the Boss to get up on stage and jam." (during Mike's pause, someone in the house band plays the theremin line of "Good Vibrations" during the crowd's tepid response.)

"I wanna see Billy Joel, see if he can still tickle ivories, lemmee see. I know Mick Jagger won't be here tonight, he's gonna have to stay in England. But I'd like to see us in the Coliseum and he at Wembley Stadium because he's always been chickenshit to get on stage with the Beach Boys."

Wow. Poor ol Mike Love seems to have caught a dose of Brian Wilson's craxiness. I saw the Beach Boys in The Point in, I think, 1989, and Mike sang wildly out of tune for the whole thing. I didn't care, or actually I didn't notice until I bought the bootleg tape of it

Me and my buddy Yank hung around the door of the Westbury Hotel the next day for hours and eventually got out photos taken with Al Jardine. That was ok, but what we really wanted to do was hook up with those amazing blonde song-and-dance girls that had been setting my loins on fire during the gig

that was in 1988, Mike was always crazy! A very nasty man by all accounts...

Daughter Shawn (from an affair with Shannon Harris *Dec. 1964). Shawn Love has passed away September 2003 and the National Enquirer has a story on the subject slamming Mike Love.
Quoting the article, " 'He can save my life and at last show me he cares about me' Shawn told (her friend Barbara). For 20 years, right up to her death, she begged him to pay for a liver transplant, but he refused. His heart had turned to stone." On October 8 Love admitted to THE ENQUIRER that he was contacted by his daughter for help- but it was too late!"

Amazing!
