I grew up doing sitcoms and theater and even playing with the Beach Boys, where you're programmed to perform, your body gets into a rhythm and you know it has to perform.

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

Of course The Beach Boys will be camp.

I think I got turned onto The Beach Boys for the first time with the 'Endless Summer' album in 1974. The power of that music still, to this day, bypasses the brain and goes straight to the heart. You don't have to think about it; it's something that you feel.

You know, The Beach Boys' image is kinda like a group Doris Day, you know what I mean?

It's like when a guy gets a divorce from his wife. You part ways. That's what I did with The Beach Boys.
