Now now, sarcasm is the lowest form of humour.....
No sarcasm. Seriously - where would we be?
Their is a core of people who have kept the BB torch lit. AGD is one of them. Jon Stebbins, Ed Roach, ..........
++++++++
Besides, AGD said I wasn't very good at sarcasm. I have to agree.

In all seriousness, they should have a world trivia contest of Beach Boy fans. I'm placing my bets on AGD to win because he knows so much to point where the band should pay him as official historian.

It's great to find out the identity of the mystery man in the film with the camera and shades: Jules! Great stuff - that will put the Bob Gordan (or Gordon...) speculation to rest for good. Not that he still isn't one of the more mysterious figures in the saga.
And much thanks again for the Jules info, as well as updated info on the various locations of the film shoot. That means a lot to me as it's something I've been curious about for about 10 years, since I first saw it. So a big thanks, and I hope to see and get more info out there as it becomes available.
Jules' statement about a TV station in Philly: That is intriguing. I have to look into that, it may be something connected to Philly DJ Jerry Blavat, known as "The Geator" who had a TV show. The Monkees were on a Philly TV music show promoting Head in '68, maybe that's the same one?
I thought the film was targeted to UK television as the BB's were going there on the big tour, and that's why in the US at least it is sometimes labeled "unreleased"...which is true but only for the US, so it seems.

It is also surprising to see how some locations in the film have stayed pretty much the same from 1966 to the present, despite all of the development and various renewal/revival efforts that usually change the look of an area. It's kind of eerie and fascinating looking at the same buildings as they were 45 years ago captured on film, for me at least.
And anyone who watches the TV show "Storage Wars", the fire station museum was featured in a recent episode where two buyers took some antique firefighting equipment and memorabilia to an expert at the museum to have them authenticated. Pretty neat to see the old building in light of all the film discussion here.

Haven't been paying attention but this thread is awesome because I just learned that the girl in the GV film is Barbara Rovell(thanks Jon Stebbins).
What's sooo cool about this is the color RED, and I have to also add that Brian's bio fits into this as well(sorry anti bio at all cost gang).
Holy crap! See how the red represents Brian's fire trip?
!!! Come on folks.
How cool!!!! How freakin' cool!!!!

Cuz Barbara was part of Bri's fire trip experience (if one is to believe--or even entertain the possibility of-- the Barbara/2nd trip part of the bio).

We haven't gotten proof that it was Barbara yet, but hopefully soon that will be cleared up.
Bill, I remember we had some good discussions on this film when the only source was VHS tape. Youtube is pretty cool.

Thanks to "Been Too Long" and "The Other Anonymous":
1966
2011
That freeway on-ramp seems to have been a key location for filming. I never would have guessed that. It's too bad so many trees and shrubs are blocking the same angles they had in '66, I enjoy doing then-and-now comparisons of streets and towns like this. Geek central indeed!
You and me both!
Now how about that grassy knoll in Dallas?

Ah yes, the grassy knoll!
I watch every program and documentary I come across about those things, and every time they show modern shots of those places, it's so odd how certain places and parts of the landscape seem frozen in time.
For all of the progress and rebuilding around Los Angeles and Hollywood, that odd-shaped apartment building is still standing. It's an odd thing that whatever they boarded up in front as of '66 still seems boarded up, if that's what it is, and I'm guessing there are still tenants living there. Enjoying having the 101 freeway a stone's throw away, I'm sure.
I wonder what the original tenants in '66 thought of a group of rock musicians wearing firehats and coats running outside their pad looking like the Marx Brothers?
"Is that those damn Monkees kids filming here again?"
"No, the one with the beard said they're the Beach Boys."
"Oh."

Looking at google earth, there does seem to be a studio behind the apartments which may have been the case in 66. May have been a someone involved with the studio who lived/ owned there.
edit. Not a recording studio after a quick search but a lot in the area back in the day.

I, I love the colorful clothes she wears, and she's already working on my brain. I only looked in her eyes, but I picked up something I just can't explain. I, I bet I know what she’s like, and I can feel how right she’d be for me. It’s weird how she comes in so strong, and I wonder what she’s picking up from me. I hope it’s good, good, good, good vibrations, yeah!!

I don't want to start a new thread for this, and since we're discussing one aspect of Good Vibrations, i'll ask here: does anyone know who played the jew's harp on the recording?

The fire hats are red too ! And so is the fire engine !!! Can you believe that ?
And Brian's shirt is... blue ? Ah, I know, that represents the water putting the fire out. Yeah.
The girl's shorts are white ! So is snow, and snow's just frozen water, right !
Sorry Bill, all it means is that morning she picked a red top out of the closet that day..
More important to me is the question - is that ball made by Wilson, or not ?

Crap, Jay, got me! I'm just sitting hear waiting for that coconut wireless info back from Brian.
I'm sure AGD would, in fact, ask him if he had the chance but I imagine they are both too busy for such trivial things.
Obviously Brian is keeping crazy busy right now.
