PRO SHOT BEACH BOYS CONCERTS - LIST


To sum it up, they blew it, they blew it consistently, they continue to blow it, it is tragic and this pathological problem caused The Beach Boys' greatest music to be so underrated by the general public.

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!!

Richard's dream of being carpenter didn't work. In depression phase, he instead forms band The Carpenters in dedication to this dream.
Steve was set to play the leading character in the movie "Lawrence of Arabia". At the last time he declined & instead made career of singer.
Alicia found smb.'s keys to success & now she's world-famous.
Amy hated singing,  in fact. She invested money in building the best winehouse but her fans kept whining & she continued tours & stuff.
Angus was too young when they said he got musical ear. He was young & silly & naive that's why he believed what they said. The rest is history.
Aretha was frankly not only best black female singer, she is "queen diva", she said in self-confidence. Then asked, "Agreed?" to awestruck crowd of black & white fans.
Axl planted roses, then suddenly old school chum knocked his garden with an offer to be in a band. Axl replied "Well I nearly had to wait" then quickly changed his gardener costume to leather jacket & dyed his hair for cool image. Chum assisted.
Tom waits for nobody. He likes being in the studio alone.
Keith hated moon. He was convinced that drum skin looks kinda like moon surface & he hit them very angrily.
Frank's favorite tune is "Zippi-dee-do-da Zappa-dee-a".

Ronnie can't sing well, they say she got very little spectre of vocal range. Somehow she still got to be famous.
Charlie went to the west over the 5 years before landing with the name Del Shannon.
B.B. wasn't prince. He's king. Not literally.

Thanks. Your puns are samey.

Sheryl was stopped by some chap "Hey, can you take picture of me with buddies?" When she did, he says, "You know, me & my buddies agreed your voice sounds like a crow". Sheryl stood there, agape. He just shrugged shoulders, said bye & ran.
In medieval times there lived dollmaker. One sunny day, rich gentleman demanded doll made of steel. After finishing, he liked the result very much that he dubbed it "Steely Dan".
Carole knew she was King. When at school the teacher raised eyebrows, she said "I am Carole King. Deal with it".
Evie has a big house around the beach. During free time, she likes to be hid in sands showing just head.
The Fields appear to be magnetic - their shows draw many fans around the world.
The Stones don't seem to be able to get rolling - they're too skinny for that.
Hurry up! Express train goes to Ohio.
The amusement centre got new feature - enjoy the new ride in a death cab! Hey, cutie, would you join?
Mumford passed by some little boys with mother & he quickly ran to the record company "I got the band name - we are Mumford & Sons!".
Nancy isn't senator's daughter. Rather, she is singer's daughter.
Today's News: At 5 a.m. the vandal act took place in New York underground - the walls covered with graffiti. The FBI think it's the same gang - the color was velvet as previous case.

what, nobody will chime in?? Hey, where's everybody? HELLO!

I like crosswords.

Frankie likes New York, his favorite restaurant to sing at is Indus Valley.
Iggy hangs out with pop stars but secretly hates popular music.
Rod's friend works in a ship as a steward. People used to mix them up, last evening Rod said "Let's change places today to see whose work is tough". Friend: "Did you forget about my stage fright?"
Townsfolk requested song from Dusty. She said "the acoustics in spring fields is great".
Stevie can't wait to get home to read "Alice in wonderland". In interview he admitted, "I get wisdom from the story".
At 20, to cope with poverty, Chuck stole berries from neighbors & would sell it in the street market. 1 bucket=50$.

"Smb. help this poor chap, he's bowing like crazy!", shouted David.
Mary travells around the world in 80 days. She said the inspiration was reading Jules Verne (sp?) story with such title. "I did it! Woo-hoo!", she posted in Twitter.
