“I earned my famous name”

the time Brian Wilson and Thomas Pynchon met for a night of fumbling around with oil lamps and silence

Listening to Beach Boys all day. The loss of Brian Wilson and David Lynch in the same year feels like a loss of a certain kind of Americana that won’t come back.

RIP Brian Wilson
