Unfortunately, Brian seemed quite fond of that shirt - seen pics of him wearing it dated 10/66 and 2/67 (without the pendant). If pressed, I'd have to say fall 1966, but that's just a best guess. |

What i really want to know is why hasn't any company reissued t-shirts like the one Brian wore in those pictures with 1960s style clothing cool again. Might just get a custom made version myself.

Good point. I'd definitely be up for a retro striped BW T-shirt. |

Check out American Apparel. They have a few competition-striped surf shirts (or at least they used to. might need to check ebay!).

Ebay is the place where i have seen some cool really vintage surf shirts, american aparrel has decent ones witch i might buy in the future for christmas. I'm just hoping for a replica or near replica of the shirt style BW wore in the future. |

They were selling them at Smile concerts. Blue with white stripe. Of course, it also said "Brian Wilson" on the breast.... |

The little thing around Brian's neck is a dream catcher. It is a Native American symbol used to keep nightmares away. Common to many of the Western Plains Tribes.

Peter, does Brian still have an interest in Native American culture like he did around the SMiLE period? |
