Fine.
Yes, some clips sound bad, others good. This is true.
It's also true that being excited and tingling at the show might tend to put rose-colored glasses on your ears.
But HEY!
No problem. I have tickets and soon I will be an excited and tingling concert goer too!
So, we shall see.
Let me say that I am not a Beach Boy detractor, but I am a realist.
I actually do hope that what you're reporting is really and truly the case. I want them to sound great on every song, of course. Well, I don't care if they go wonky on Disney Girls.
Thanks for wind-chiming in.
That's cool. I was kind of under the impression that you weren't going to a show on this tour, and so I guess that made me jump a little too harshly on your views on what you've seen so far on Youtube etc. Hope you enjoy, and look forward to hearing what your opinion is after. Cheers!

Hey man, hate to break it to you, but the vocal performance given by these guys at live shows is un-friggin-believable. They sound sublime. At this point in the tour, none of which you described is apparent any longer.
Alright... you're saying (in a rather blusterly and somewhat condescending manner) that over the course of the tour, they have tightened up and improved since the beginning of the tour. I'll buy that. They probably have tightened up. I'm glad for that. But phrasing and delivery is one thing. Voice quality is another.
I read somewhere here, a few weeks ago, where somebody was explaining how they thought that the Beach Boys vocals currently are on par with what they were back in the day. That's a nice thought and I'm sure there is sincere fondness behind it. I'm not part of that group of thinkers.

I tell ya - the most engaged and relaxed I've ever seen Brian on stage was when he played Red Rock casino (outside of Vancouver, BC) with a stripped down, semi acoustic six man band.
No teleprompter. Loose and hamin' it up.
I agree with you (River Rock), but Jeff was there. He even lifted his shirt to show his belly.

Have you any idea how good they were as a live band back then? I'm telling you, this place truly amazes me with the breadth of differences Beach Boys' fans have in here.

You say that almost as though you expect everyone to have exactly the same view of the Beach Boys. Thankfully, they don't.
Yes. I saw them in 1971 and 1972. Yes, they were terrific. No, I don't want to revert to that. Does that work for you ?

Actually, no it doesn't. As I said in another thread, over the last 10 years I feel like I have nothing in common with most Beach Boys fans these days.
