What kind of drugs was he on. And obviously if he wasn't he just proved what a crazy asshole he is. He was blessed by Brian Wilson and his Brothers. Then he's filed multiple lawsuits. He sued Brian, his uncle, Al Jardine. And maybe others. Steals the name,takes credit for songs He didn't write. Tried to sue for 44 more but lost. Al counter sued and got out of court settlement. Then to insult some of the greatest talented musicians, composer's, performers of r&r history. He can't even play a tambourine let alone be a true musician. He sucks!!!

Mike Love was the lyricist behind Beach Boys

I can’t believe he bashed Paul McCartney for suing his band mates. Years later he sued Brian over the rights to The Beach Boys name, songwriting credits, and even accused Brian of stealing his likeness when Brian completed Smile. How do you make a speech about love and harmony while simultaneously shitting in your peers and challenging them?

Mike's speech started just fine, but as soon as he started talking about Paul McCartney everything just started to unravel

Plus, he was always so supportive of his big brother Brian and quick to say that Brian was the leader of the Beach Boys. Anyone who can't recognize Dennis' genuine gifts and contributions to the band isn't a true Beach Boys fan.

He's a perfect example of what can happen when a small minded person seriously meditates in a small-minded context, taking himself and his meditation practice too seriously for all the wrong reasons.

@@nuwavedave Indeed but calling out that Paul lawsuit was low. That was the Beatles' business. No one else's. And challenging the Stones and the Beatles was delusional. I think John definitely would've cut Mike Love down to size with one line. Something along the lines of "I can still write a good song without my old writing partner. How bout you?" or "I saw four Beach Boys on stage and only three of them had talent."

Ameri Color really?? Talent doesn’t mean you have a right to be a dick. The guy is a douche bag. Seriously, watch him in past beach boys videos. His ego is bigger than his receding hairline back then. And I highly recommend the movie Love & Mercy, if you like The Beach Boys and Brian Wilson, it will give you perspective on what he went through. The poor guy went thru hell. Notice he paused when Mike Love interrupted is speech to put the microphone lower?? There’s a reason for that, and it’s because he thinks he’s an ass. Not hard to find and not hard to see.

According to Brian's book, Carl allegedly said, "We're fucked," after Mike's speech here.

Mike will always be in the shadow of Brian's warm, child-like greatness. Humility and kindness always comes off better than Mike's harsh, critical ego-centric demeanor. His fame has desensitized him.

I love how the drummer clapped for Dennis. Drum sticks, then a bass hit. Perfect

Everything was fine. Beautiful speech by Brian. Mike showing his love and respect for Brian and Carl when he put his hands on their backs. It's beautiful. Then he decides to touch the microphone and interrupt Brian ( WHY?? ). Carl says somethings about Dennis ( great ) but then...... Mike shits all over the place. Poor Al Jardine he would like to speak as well :( Dennis should have lived and kicked Mike out of that stage. Mike Love embarasses the beach boys and their fans.

He berates Paul McCartney for the 'disharmony' of suing a record company, and then proceeds to sue a family member...

2:36 - As I get older I find that, more and more, I appreciate Carl. The reasonable one. Two brilliant older brothers who became hellraisers in their own ways. And a half-talented arsehole cousin who was always pushing himself in front of them. Carl always found a way to try and hold it all together without doing anyone down. And he picked-up the creative reins when his oldest brother was seriously struggling. Carl might raise an eyebrow when Dennis or Brian did or said something silly. But he always tried to be there, throughout the madness.

To be fair, the one time Mike sued for proper writing credits (which the Wilsons' father was to blame for, as he wanted money only to go to his sons), even Brian said, "Mike has every right to sue me." He rightly thought it best to let a judge handle such matters. Mike's name has been restored to those songs since. The other time was definitely inexcusable, though.

Also, loved how Mike tried to upstage and intimidate Brian when he was talking.
