Already posted in the Youtube thread but thought I would share it here as well.  The great impressionist Stevie Riks has finally hit a Beach Boys kick with a few Beach Boys-related videos.  The one above is his newest one.  If you haven't checked out his Youtube page yet, you definitely should.  He does some hilarious, spot-on impersonations and there are hours of videos to be found on there.

Holy foda!

I was watching this guy's Beatles impressions at least a year ago, and I thought to myself "what if this guy were to do Beach Boys impressions?", but I never thought he'd actually do it! Awesome.

Lame jokes I hear (actually, the one about the fridge wasn't too lame) - where are the good impressions ?  All I see is some guy with a big pillow stuffed up his shirt twisting his face and talking like a mentally handicapped person, and the same guy with a dead badger stuck to his chin.

I thought the Mike was a bit lame but he nailed quite a few of Brian's mannerisms. My favourite one was when Brian's playing piano, then stops so he can move his arms and hands around, yet the music keeps going.

Check out the guy's Monkees impression, now that really had me in stitches!!

I'm with you.  I've never thought Riks was funny or particularly good with his impressions.

He does a great Marc Bolan, CosmicDancer.

Made me think of Richie Cunningham from "Happy Days".

I like his version of the Beatles' performing "Sail On Sailor" much better.

That was him ? Right, explains why I found it... embarrassing.

Wow, tough crowd.  Admittingly it might take watching his videos a few times to appreciate Riks' humor.  But with a little more open-mindedness I'm pretty sure most people here could come to enjoy what he does.  Stevie Riks does a killer David Bowie (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Fr3rDQQ-9E&feature=channel_video_title), all three Bee Gees (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CY7zyjwb_yU&feature=related) and of course, the Beatles (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JP7lNrLuaX8&feature=channel_video_title).  And his Jeff Lynne is a riot (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=impSkBKssW8&feature=channel_video_title).  There is nothing embarassing about what he does.  Give him a chance.

OK, gave 'em all a try.

Bowie - rubbish, and embarrassing rubbish.
Bee Gees - passable
Lennon & McCartney - more like Stardust & Gallager
Jeff Lynne - see Bowie

I find his humor to be tasteless...watching someone make fun of a 68 year old recovered-drug-addict/mental-illness-prone musical legend isn't my cup of tea.

When it comes to impressions, I tune into Frank Caliendo's stuff....hilarious guy.

Brian may like a good impression.

His 'Hold My Nose' take-off of Mike is a classic IMO. Grin
