Jessica Nicks and Brian Larsen??
 

It says they were romantically involved??!! She is only 14 and he is 19. Oh my!! She is her father's daughter huh??? LOL.

Forget Jessi Nicks....This right here shocked me:

-Larsen wrote more than 30 songs with longtime Fleetwood Mac guitarist Lindsey Buckingham, which were intended to be used for a duo-collaborative album titled "The Gift of Screws." Although legal battles ensued and the pair's friendship dissolved, Larsen emerged with copyright ownership over the majority of the pieces.

30 songs?!?!?!?!??!?!?!:eek:

Oh my!
 

"Larsen had attempted two Betty Ford detox stints for a long-standing cocaine addiction that destroyed his abborated left nasal septum. In November, 2004, Larsen was hospitalized for a near-fatal drug overdose on the tranquilizers Valium and Klonopin, but claims to have emerged "clean" as of January, 2005."


Perhaps he reminds Jessie of her aunt!!!!

WTF? This can't be true, can it? Wouldn't he have been, like 15 years old?

"Larsen has a bachelors' degree in Pharmacy practices", I bet he does :laugh:

So, Lindsey and him now hate each other and Stevie's niece is dating him?

Oy.

That's what got my attention too! :shocked: BTW, who the hell is he? Never heard of him... i can't imagine Lindsey writing 30 songs with anyone... especially a 19 year old?

That is just bizarre. He released his first album at age 11?

He's only 19, yet he's been linked romantically to Lisa Loeb AND Jessica Nicks (which would constitute statuatory rape if they slept together)? 30 songs with Lindsey, and we've never heard of him? And the connections to the whole Stevie world are creepy - cocaine addiction and buring out part of his nose, the klonopin use, 2 stints at Betty Ford, a link to Lindsey, and all the way down at the bottom of the bio... he's "endorsed" by the Indian incense, nag champra.

And if you link to his homepage... eeeeeks... this kid is creepy looking... :eek:

He also released a song called "Steal Your Heart Away". Very strange...

Not if they "dated" when he was underage. I call it puppy love at that age.

They definitely share their weird taste in men then. :shocked:

At 19? :laugh:

Sorry guys... but I smell a rat

Go read the biog on the official site

I wonder who paid that legal bill. In theory LB's label at the time, Warner I think, could have, but they may have insisted on owning the rights as compensation.

This also raises the question of the credibility of LB's story that he shopped GOS to the label and they were no very interested due to a change in management, etc. Ordinarily, no label is going to want to touch or put money into property in litigation, much less on a star with little comparative selling power. This is a rather fascinating twist on things that lead to the shelving of GOS and the creation of SYW. This is also rather fascinating considering LB must have won the suit because I believe he considered all those songs for SYW and he said in DR that he owned the masters. Finally, that suit could have cost him millions to win esp. if that win resulted in LB buying out Larsen.

I wonder if legal documents were actually filed. I googled and came up with nothing.

Does anyone know anything more about this?



On a total random thing, the google search revealed this here in the Vito Q&A section:

Hi! I have two questions.... First of all, do you have a current relationship with Stevie, Mick, John, or Christine? Secondly, where can I find out more information about what you are doing today? Have you seen my webpage, Big Love? (Brian Larsen, Laurel, Maryland)

I occasionally speak with Stevie. As you might know, I went out on her Street Angel tour a few years back and would love to work with her again. She is very special. I ran into Mick on the street with Peter Green's manager this past year. We don't keep in close touch but it's always great to see him. I have not have much contact with John or Christine in recent years but I certainly wish them both well. I see Billy Burnette most often because we live close to each other and I plan to see his new band play soon.. You can go to http://www.rickvito.com/ if you would like more information as to what I'm doing. Currently I've been working on my own music and touring with Bonnie Raitt. I just completed work also on Bob Seger's new CD also. I'll check out Big Love soon.

I agree Cat, this whole article is all very odd and suspicious, especially the Lindsey link.

Now i'm having deja vu... does anyone else remember him posting on the ledge a few years back? Seems like he posted a few times about his album and linked his website... i think most of us wrote him off as a crazy troll at the time.

This is a complete fabrication... It's all made up people!!!!! Fake!

I'm sure I recognise the name.....

Then why is the same information in wikipedia, which is pretty much never wrong http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brian_Larsen

I am not trying to start anything - I am just confused.

he probably wrote the entire wikipedia entry.

The bio at his site ( http://www.twilightsmoon.com/live/ ) says he is from Laurel, Maryland, which is, I think, where the poster in the Q&A was from.

I don't suppose we have any way of checking further back on the ledge....

Well, wikipedia is written by net users, to wit:

Wikipedia may go to print

NEW YORK, New York (Reuters) -- Entries from Wikipedia, the popular free online encyclopedia written and edited by Internet users, may soon be available in print for readers in the developing world, founder Jimmy Wales said on Monday.

He said content from the Web site may also be burned onto CDs and DVDs so computer users in places like Africa, who lack access to high-speed Internet, could consult parts of the reference work offline.

Wales also described as incorrect reports, one of them from Reuters, that certain pages of the Wikipedia could be subject to tightened controls or "frozen" for good to prevent vandals and pranksters from tampering with them.

"We are talking to several agents and publishers about what they would be interested in," Wales said of the book project.

He cited health, football and histories of World War Two or rock 'n' roll as examples of how entries could be grouped into subjects.

"I have always liked the idea of going to print because a big part of what we are about is to disseminate knowledge throughout the world and not just to people who have broadband," Wales said by telephone from St. Petersburg, Florida.

Issues like funding, distribution and topics were still being discussed but a first printed work could be ready from mid-2006, he added.

Wales, a 39-year-old former options trader, set up Wikipedia in 2001. The site operates through the Wikimedia Foundation, a nonprofit organization that relies on donations to pursue its goal of spreading knowledge for free.

The reference work uses "Wiki" software, which gives anyone with access to the Internet the opportunity to edit any page.

Some 350,000 people have contributed terms, background, context or simply corrected spellings for more than 2 million Wikipedia entries in more than 25 active languages. About 800,000 entries are in English.

Wales, an American, said a core group of around 2,000 contributors did the bulk of the work and formed the backbone of the Wikipedia "community."

In August, Germany's Sueddeutsche Zeitung newspaper quoted Wales as saying that "controls" could be tightened to protect potentially sensitive pages of Wikipedia. Reuters picked up the report and, in translating sections of it, said some pages could be "frozen" in perpetuity.

"The idea that we are going to tighten our editorial 'rules' is completely not correct (and) the articles would not be frozen in perpetuity," Wales said. He said he had been misinterpreted and mistranslated.

Wales said new software would be deployed from the end of the year that would allow changes to very active pages which might be prone to vandalism to appear on the site with a time delay, so members of the community could review them.

Enthusiasts had also been discussing whether to create "stable" versions of certain pages that would stand as the most recent reliable entry on a given topic.

These would be available behind the latest contributed version and would also be updated as necessary, Wales said.

Oh. I didn't realize exacly what Wikepedia was. So anyone can go & write whatever they want about themselves? Even if it's crap?

What a loser. :laugh:

I did not either. You would think they would have some sort of QC though. But, yes, what a loser. Also, I cannot believe LB's people have not remedied this lie.

LOL
What a bunch of horsesh*t!
:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:


rbs

Check out the RIAA and see how many Gold and Platinum awards have been given to "Brian Larsen".

ZERO!

"Brian larsen" had nothing to do with the writing, the recording, the shopping, or the aborting of "Gift of Screws." Nor has he had anything to do personally with Lindsey Buckingham, Jessica Nicks, Stevie Nicks, or even Kim Brakeley (but maybe he was pals with Chris Nicks).

Listen to some of his "music" here:

http://snipurl.com/ji4x

Thanks - I got confused with the two threads going on. I was like "I am swimming in confusion" :laugh:

"While accepting an award for distinguished songwriting skills through the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP) in 2004, Larsen thanked his "longtime lover, Anthony Hopkins")."

:lol: :lol: :lol:

Ding ding!

Thanks for clearing this up! I was a little concerned that Jess was already "romantically involved" at 14.


So is he a real musician? I have never heard of him. :shrug: Is he a troll?

ooh - he sounds BAD. but he's so cute :blush:

I already posted this in the thread on Lindsey's board, but thought I'd post it here as well.


I'm wondering if the same person who wrote Brian Larsen's Wikipedia entry contributed to Lindsey's as well? Lindsey's also lists a connection:

Exactly. where the hell did that come from?:lol:

ewwww! He seems to have a hair product addiction.

I'm going to put my money on this kid being the gold medalist at the Crazy Fan Olympics and nothing more.

famed? what is this song? and why does it skip from The Dance to 'married with three kids' as if nothing's happened in the last couple of years?

crackhead...

I just can't imagine Lindsey Buckingham collaborating with an 11-year old on 30 songs.

Heeeeyyyy... i remember this nutcase... he claimed to write songs with lindsey... and his "band" was called "twilights moon" or something... but it was only him... no one else... and the songs (the mp3s he posted) were just some of lindsey's songs, played badly, with new "brian larsen" lyrics sung over them... and he was bad... he played piano more primitively than some of stevie's worst demos... and he couldn't carry a tune- his voice was all over the place- and never where it needed to be. i remember one particular mp3 where he played "the ledge" on the piano (just the melody with like, 1 finger) dude had no rhythm, no musical ability whatsoever... and he actually recorded a bunch of songs like this and advertised here to sell them.... if you ask around on the lindsey board i know some of them actually bought the freaking cd (since, you know, it was cowritten with lindsey)

lol, i remember once, on his website he had a "q & a with stevie"...and it was so badly and totally forged... it's like, the guy didn't know anything about stevie but he was making this **** up.

gosh this had to be like, 5 years ago maybe? anyone else remember? maybe even longer.... then some ledgies realized he was full of **** and he sort of got run off i think. anyone else remember?
