Imagine being a creative genius but being hounded by your drunken, damaged and abusive father plus your unjustifiably egocentric and grating cousin who wants just as much of a say in your band as you despite holding 1/10 the amount of talent. Poor Brian! :D
This is actually kind of funny. Also quite weird. Mike’s hat has the logo worn by the Houston Astros beginning in 2000, so that pinpoints time and location somewhat.
This intro was probably funny the first time they did it, maybe the second and third time... By this time it seems contrived and lame.. Then he keeps doing it for another 40 years...
They are mates, actually, Mike's done shows at Maralago or however it's spelled. This is also presumably why he's now taking time between songs to rant about women and gay people. It's not even coherent quote-unquote comedy bits, he's just ranting now, apparently.
One of the reasons I fell out of favor with Mike Love-not only with his boorish preambles, but year in and year out he repetitively recited the same schtick.
Oh lord, it's just so easy to follow the narrative and not look at what's plainly visible to you isn't it? Mike Love is who you can thank for all the trips the music of The Beach Boys has taken you on. Oh! That's not the *populist* view but believe me, no Mike Love's vision? No. Beach. Boys. #DeMarcoGuitars
I like this intro to Good Vibrations (had never heard it before), but it's too long. In those 3+ precious min, he could have done another song that fans were ultimately denied getting to hear in the setlist.
Which I'll take over "oiled up with lotion" Mike any day. However both are to be avoided as a nod to mental health. Don't believe me, just ask Brian Wilson.
he got fired :( i think (if i remember correctly anyway) the reasoning was that they only wanted people who could sing in the band, and meros obviously never sung...
No, we just have seen 60 years of hus abhorrent behavior. It's why he gets next to no respect. Ask anyone in Rock who's the biggest AH in rock, and his name would easily be in the top 5. Fans can be fical, but when your peers can't stand you, it speaks volumes. He should just bank the multi-millions Brian Wilson's genius has enabled him to earn and just retire at this point. His voice is shot and his county fair band is bad.
I Love Mike Love. If you don’t love Mike Love then you are incapable of true loving love. I love Mike Love almost as much as Mike Love loves Mike Love. I’m just speaking out of love for Mike Love
The Psychedelic era he wasn't groovin with
Mike Love makes torture seem like a cool alternative to listening or seeing Mike Love under any circumstances
The Good Vibrations monologue never caught on, for some reason.
Might've worked better with a boy/girl spin
His f***ing goggle eyes and peace sign when he says "the psychedelic era of the '60s" is just Mike channeling all his dislike for VanDyke Parks.
I’m not surprised Brian went crazy

@@dandare42so well stated. I did love him turning off the I Write the Songs schlock. Sorry Bruce, but it's mid 70s elevator music.
I am never getting that 3 minutes back
you're welcome
To c*?
This is why Carl died young
Everything bad is Mike’s fault. Fuck.
Poor guy. I can only imagine what a shame it was, standing onstage next to this "meditation guru" for 36 years.
I'm sure smoking since he was a teenager had more to do with it that Mike
this why every country hates america
@@80steen44mike speaking made everyone age 40 years right on stage
apple juice incident flashback
For me Mike and Bruce have a similar dynamic to the Grinch and his dog Max.. poor Bruce
Bruce is lame too.
"Unfortunately, this wasn't in the script."
i dont know whether im thankful for this clip or am terrified
I'm not American, is that a Carl Jr's uniform?
This guys sounds like the kind of guy to inhale his own fart for the better good
Smug Alert.
Please tell me this was some random band's concert and Mike jumped on stage to do this
Sadly, no.
No, this is his cover band, whose name he has been tarnishing for decades.
Wonder why mikes audiobook career didnt take off
This is why Love was never the lead man of the Beach Boys who was in the band just cause he was a cousin
This was frightening
Mikey should have serenaded the Texas crowd with the entire Country Love album.
Live through this by Hole
Long tall Texan
Bruce Johnston best actor

Grandpa. Tell me bout the good old days ( in the creepiest way possible )
Could you imagine how insane this guy would be if he hadn't quit drinking?
the greatest guided meditation of all time
"Clear your mind of all negative thoughts, ok now sue Al Jardine"
Instant relaxation
This intro was probably funny the first time they did it, maybe the second and third time...

Absolute Donald Trump energy, especially at 1:10

@@justindemarco5046 Mike Love would be flipping burgers at McDonald’s had it not been for Brian Wilson.
Wow, that was a long way to go.
Those gold rings are cutting off circulation to his pea brain

This rant is almost better than all their songs though.
This intro was cut from the smile version
Mikes rant was supposed to be in the final mix
UNLEASH THE LOVE
looking back with love
Mike Love Not War
GIGANTIC X3 A BIG BIG LOVE

Did he die?

Hearing Mike Love say "slip it in" completes me. 3:12
MIKE LOVE NOT WAR
baker's dozen!
Clever!
Heroic.
To be fair, I may not always have loving words for Mike but some of this was pretty funny
does he have standards or decency
Mike and Bruce are the Batman and Robin of pop music
I love this intro! Its actually pretty cool! So funny when he disses Bruce about that boring song too.
CATCH A WAVE
with enough comments we can cover the entire mike love solo discography :-)
Wish I had tickets to the performance at Petco Park. Should be fun. Super stoked for you Mike!
😂😂
Mike is doing stand up now I'LL take that any day than his crap singing it's like karaoke right
I need to make a Mike Love cringe compilation one of these days...
is this a guided meditation
FIRST LOVE
country love
@@EloraBB Haha plz make it stop 👨🦲
To be fair, the “you don’t want to inhale because someday you might want to run for office” part was pretty funny
another presidential connection is his rants and over inflation of him self is very Trump like
Being 100% honest this whole video is hilarious. Mikes obviously self aware of the corny nature that the speech gives but he rolls with it.
Gotta be Houston, Astros logo.
yup! 2001-07-04 eleanor tinsley park houston :-)
Love is full of shit, he never even embraced weed at the time.
Still better than him singing though
Y'all are trippin, this is hilarious lol
Why is he dressed like Phil Collins 🤡
And does introductions for songs kinda like Phil did with Genesis
Moist Mike

Welp I just lost like three minutes
LMAO
Is this also Mike Meros’ last show? What a sendoff if so
yep! meros' last show sadly. also the last show for phil bardowell
@@EloraBB - Do you know why Mike Meros left? July 4th seems like such an abrupt ending date lol
he got fired :( i think (if i remember correctly anyway) the reasoning was that they only wanted people who could sing in the band, and meros obviously never sung...

People just like to hate on Mike. This was entertaining and funny.
