Jeffles, at the risk of taking this thread from the sublime to the ridiculous, considering that after all we are arguing about whether someone neither of us knows personally is tormented. Dude, again, go look at the lyrics from the GOS tracks. What do you call Murrow? What do you call Shuffle Riff? Say Goodbye? Someone's Gotta Change Your Mind? Even the Stones cover, Gotta Get Away? The torment is evident in the artistry. Who is anyone to say he is or isn't? All I have is the man's work, and based on that, I say he is a tortured soul.

You made some statements in your original post accusing him of trying to copy Brian Wilson, then you have backtracked a little in every subsequent post. First you say he "acts like," then you say you didn't mean he "copies" (which is silly because "acts like" and "copies" mean the same thing) and then you say Lindsey's motivation "is similar" to Brian Wilson's. Seems to me you're backtracking because you were way out of school. It's OK to admit you made a mistake. No one will hold it against you.
