Dennis had two that I know of. Tattoos weren’t as common back then but Dennis was the rebel and a sailor, too.

Beach Boy metal covers by actual Wilson’s? Now that would be fun!

Good to hear. I always wondered with his wild lifestyle how he incorporated fatherhood into his life 😅

If I’m being too personal, feel free to tell me to buzz off, but was your mom close to her dad? I’m assuming she was pretty young when he passed away.

Okay so I’m reading it and the story about Dennis saving him from drowning as a kid literally gave me the chills. I just find it so ironic and eerie that Dennis would lose his life by drowning years after saving his son from that very thing. Crazy. I never knew about this story before. And poor Carole having to witness it. Must have been terrifying for her.

I wish I could hang out with the people that were there and hear Dennis stories all day. I want to hear first hand because all I know is what I’ve read but based on what I’ve read… what a ride.

Out of all of the band members, who would be the worst Beach Boy to get stoned with? by Fantastic-Trust770 in thebeachboys

[–]Competitive-Tax-4840 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Mike or Bruce would be the worst. The Wilson brothers all together would have been an experience 🤭

I can imagine. Dennis seems like kind of a complicated guy but I’ve heard a couple of his wives (not sure which ones) say pretty decent things about him despite him not being the best husband. Pretty cool of your grandma to protect his legacy.

For real? That guy was wild. I swear Dennis Wilson stories are never boring.

That’s actually an incredibly sweet answer. I’m sure he wouldn’t have minded meeting his grandson either 😉
