It's hard to explain just how much pleasure this photo has given me in the last 24 hours.
I have this fantasy playing in my head that once Andy Partridge finished gushing over Brian's career, Brian gave back with some of his own celebratory comments about "Oranges & Lemons."
Is it at all possible that conversation took place? Please don't tell me no.
I didn't think too hard about this, but the tunes that came immediately to mind are as follows:
Please feel free to add to the Beach Boys/XTC connection.
Then, if you have a few more minutes, hop on over to Burning Love?. This week, my choice for most disappointing favorite artist.

Sal, there's a typo in the link to your Burning Love blog.
Thanks ANON. It's been fixed.
They were probably talking about the irony in Mike Love's last name.
I heard "Season Cycle" for the first time in a long time the other day. That's a Beach Boys homage fer sure.
Sorry to shatter everything Sal.
He did get to watch the show side stage, but he was wheeled in had a photo taken and wheeled out.
Brian had no idea who he was and Andy didn't expect or want him to.
Gee...thanks, ASH.
You big party pooper. ;)
Andy respects Mr. Wilson - that's enough for me.
But I still wish Brian will work with people like Andy, Todd and Lindsey, not those people around him.
Would love to see a collaboration between those guys. I'm really more of an XTC fan though, so I'd want to see Andy even take the lead a bit - sort of like when Elvis C and McCartney hooked up.
One only need look in Brian's eyes in this photo and see the thought balloon over his head:"Gosh I could go for some sourdough pretzels.."...man's shot...emotionally,mentally, you name it...thank God for Mylar tape......great pic though....
Thanks! I agree, this would be an amazing combo if they ever worked together. Too bad they didn't meet about 25-30 yrs ago!
