First thing I'd ask him is, "Did you ever find out who ran the iron horse?"
Then I'd ask him, "Who is the man in the boat that's referenced in the song?"

Casual questions:
1. Which books do you like? 2. Which films do you like? 3. Which is the best Christmas gift fam members gave you?
Music questions:
1. Do you plan to sing duet with anybody in music industry? A la Mary McGregor duet, by trading leads. 2. Will you book new venues to sing start to finish your album UTL? As special limited tours? 3. What it means to you to be in music industry in 21st century? Is it good now vs. way back when? & which things would you wish to new artists to stay as long in music business as you did?

The only time I sat and talked to Mike he wanted to talk about music. Meaning, he led the discussion as opposed to allowing me and my buddies to drive. I remember him talking a lot about The Beatles, really fondly. I'm drawing a blank otherwise. He was considerate with his time, we had Bruce and Melinda Love popping in and out of the convo, but really Mike gave us his full attention for about 15 minutes. I really enjoyed it. I wrote an ESQ article years ago about that day (double header concert) that I should dig up and read. It may jog my memory.

I'd ask him what he thought of "Mt. Vernon and Fairway"?

I'd ask him what he thought of "Mt. Vernon and Fairway"? You mean his old house or the fairy tale?

Mike, don't you think not doing a 20/20 tour in 2020 is a missed opportunity?

I'd cut to the chase. Myke....You've destroyed... Brian Wilson Dennis Wilson Van Dyke Parks The Beach Boys Legacy Put your horrible fun in the sun lyrics on every Beach Boys album ever created And your nasal pitch singing is causing solar flares so bad it's likely to lead to the end of the world as we know it. Are you sorry? How did OSD get on this board??

Now I'd ask him his thinking around his life long advocacy on the environment and the SCI gig.

Mike, what inspired you to rework the lilting lush Big Sur into a tender waltz for the California saga trilogy on Holland?
What's your favourite period or phase of The Beach Boys?
Could you please pass the vegetarian caviar?
