I wouldn't want to ask people to just give me money cause they like my website, but do please take a quick look at Barger's Boutique. You might find yourself a little something-something for 2 or 3 bucks that you just can't resist! Any of the round images you find around MoreThings will get you to an Amazon page to buy my stuff and help ol' Al keep the lights on.
Links
To explicitly state the obvious, these external links go to interesting and provocative websites, but they speak for themselves. I don't necessarily agree with anything they say - especially that no-goodnik Richard Marcus.

Brian Wilson to perform Smile live From Billboard:
Thirty-seven years after aborting his most ambitious project midway through recording, former Beach Boys mastermind Brian Wilson, plans to resurrect the long-lost "Smile" album in U.K. concerts next year.
Boo-yah! The schedule only calls for these few UK shows, but I predict this will expand to at least a few American shows. At a minimum, we should get a live recording or DVD. Having seen him live (with Paul Simon) a couple of years ago, I'll tell you he does not need the Beach Boys to do his thing. He needs them about like Simon needs Artie- which is to say not really at all, other than for sentimental reasons.
Some of this legendary Smile material we've already heard scattered to the winds, including "Good Vibrations" and "Heroes and Villains." Some we haven't. It will be fascinating to hear his most complete presentation of this material.
