I was flipping channels while in a Chicago hotel and saw King say "that's
our show tonight." Is this ever replayed? I'm guessing not.

With child-like honesty, he called Mike Love "egotistical". Brian said that
he suffers from auditory halucinations, the voices inside his head almost
always say "you're no good" or "I'm going to kill you". Melinda said that
the particular type of depression that Brian suffers from is associated with
hallucinations. His wife said that Brian's depression is somewhat improved
due to a new mix of meds.

close to great psychiatrists at UCLA, so it was bizarre that the family
hired a charlatan like Eugene Landy. Yet Brian insisted that the Landys did
co-write the tunes ascribed to them. Funny, Brian spoke about Al Jardine as
if he were a founder of the band, wasn't that David Marks?

have a large audience. Optimistically, Brian said that "Smile" will be
released this fall.
