Thank you for posting. It’s almost impossible to believe he is the last one standing in his family!
When I sat very close to him at this L.A. restaurant about 6 years ago, there was a piano player in the bar area. Brian got up out of his seat and politely listened to the music. He obviously wanted to be able to sit down and play but the pianist did not recognize him and so completely ignored him! Eventually, Brian went back to his chair and I went back to eavesdropping shamelessly on the conversations!
I’m not certain what happened to Dennis. I mean, it had to be tough growing up in Murry’s house. I don’t mean the man needed a little help. I believe the guy was just purely insane. But Dennis. I know the writers say that he was diving for stuff. But I think he was either too physically bankrupt to be doing that, or else he just gave up. And I have to admire Carl’s loyalty. Thanks for the little story about Brian. Makes me a little sad and melancholy.
