“[September, 1969] The group’s UK public relations man and music reporter Keith Altham recently moved to the States and has become good friends with Dennis. One day Altham tells Dennis that he’d really like to see Brian again. No problem, says Dennis, and drives them to the Radiant Radish store. When they get there, Dennis parks outside, points to the front window and says, ‘there he is.’ Brian is inside, shuffling around the premises. When Altham suggests they go in and talk to him, Dennis replies in horror, ‘Nobody talks to Brian! I thought you just wanted to see him!”” — Keith Badman, The Beach Boys: The Definitive Diary
