I made a dollar a day sweeping a laundry out. Then we made a record that was number two in Los Angeles. We got so excited hearing it on the radio that Carl threw up.

I can tell you the day The Beach Boys will no longer exist - never. We'll be on stage in wheelchairs.

If there wasn't The Beach Boys and there wasn't music, I wouldn't even talk to them. But through the music I fell in love with my brothers.

The Beach Boys are not a superstar group. The music is the superstar of the group.

Brian was the oldest, I was in the middle and Carl was the baby. I was the troublemaker. Brian got great grades and Carl got the kind of grades I did. I failed everything. I was too busy fighting and running wild.

Everything that I am or will ever be is in the music. If you want to know me, just listen.
