Where is the "Kokomo" that the Beach Boys were referring to? (1 Viewer)

[Glenn Overholt]

It is amazing how screwed up a thread can get - I want more coke!

That is what they were saying. It should be Cocomo - with 'C's, and not 'K's. Cocoa=coke mo=more.

Was that so hard?

Anywhere you want it to be.....

Or the guy who thinks the Mall of America is the shit....

 

[Kevin M]

Now that is the best answer I have heard yet.....but...a..are you saying Brian Wilson...d..did drugs?!?

 

[Philip_G]

Mall of america IS the shit. All those fine midwestern ladies everywhere

 

[Kirk Gunn]

Aint touching that one... but for the record, John Phillips of the Mamas and the Papas wrote "Kokomo" for the Beach Boys to sing on the sound track to the movie, "Cocktail."

What a wonderful time in history. Tom Cruise doing that cool bottle-flip thang in some beach bar filled with super-models, and John Phillips' kids are hanging around with Brian Wilson's kids (Wilson Phillips). Too bad Paris Hilton wasn't old enough to grace us with her social contributions...

Oh reeeeheeally? Well I think that answers many..many questions then.

Glenn's theory is looking better and better.

In Florida right by Kokomo.

Oh and if you find Margaritaville could you find my shaker of salt? I seem to have lost it last time I was there. Oh while youre there have a cheeseburger in paradise and some fruitcake while watching the fins to the left and right of you.

There are lots of them. I was at this one a few weeks ago:

Margaritaville, Orlando

 

[Seth Paxton]

No, I think they are all.

Secretly we're planning to bury you alive under silica in a ditch just outside of Carmel. (that's CAR-mel, not car-MEL you bunch of left coast fancy pants)

 

[Bryan X]

I think Silica absorbs caramel, we may want to keep it away from Carmel just to be safe.

Hey Seth Paxton ~ I have a question about your signature. The words are from a RUSH song, yes? Is the guy in the picture from A Clock Work Orange?
