Al just posted a video of him and band performing "Ding dang" acapella for about 1:15 minutes.

This is fantastic, a dream come true. Darian is great on "I can hear music", really nails all those high notes!

Thanks a lot Rocker, that Ding Dang is fantastic! It's like a sacred ritual to honour a very benevolent Deity (think Amaterasu Omikami).
And of course, Brian created that too...

It just dawned on me that the lo-fi way Al and his band do Good Vibrations would perfectly match Smiley Smile.

Seems that in the following gig they did ELEVEN (*) songs from Love You!!!

https://youtu.be/3_YFzXq06DI

and

https://youtu.be/cYbCnSoJAqA

I think the "lo-fi slow rock" vibe is fantastic. "Love You" morphs into "Smiley Smile 2".  

(*) One for each band member, I guess.

Confirmed: they did ALL of Love You except Mona, Lets Put Our Hearts Together and Love is a Woman.

I have no words... this is the greatest tribute to Brian imaginable.

Way to go Al Jardine Pet Sounds Band!

Man, do they sound great! And what about Matt?! Incredible

Can't wait to hear "Let us go on this way". One of my favorite Beavh Boys tracks of the 70s.

The new part of "Ding dang" fits very nicely.

Al probably will never become a Mick Jagger or Mike Love but I wish this band will get more attention. It certainly deserves playing to bigger crowds.

I was at the Al Jardine and the Pet Sounds Band show last night in Cohasset and it was absolutely incredible. Just magic. Honestly up there with any Beach Boys - related show I've been to. They played virtually the entire Love You album (pretty sure the only Love You songs they *didn't* play were Mona, Let's Put Our Hearts Together, and Love is a Woman). They also played She's Got Rhythm and Sweet Sunday Kind of Love, a song I love and never in a million years expected to hear live. The crowd was super into the whole show. It was far from sold out, but the vibe was really good. There was clearly a significant contingent of fans loudly excited about the 70s stuff, and I think that enthusiasm helped the rest of the audience (whose attitude may have been a little more bemused, based on looking around), stay into it. Honestly, Al seemed a little visibly surprised by how excited the crowd was about songs like Johnny Carson (which got big cheers, which I did my best to contribute to!). I also witnessed an amazing meeting between two strangers in matching "Keeping it Clean with Al Jardine" shirts.

I felt like Darian let loose in a way he never did when Brian was in the band. He sang a bunch of songs (and sounded *amazing* on all of them). I love Love You and always have, but the songs sounded even better live. They (Debbie Shair I think mostly on synth) absolutely nailed that mid-70s fat synth sound, and with so many people on stage and such good energy, it was just explosive. Matt Jardine sounded amazing (no surprise, obviously). Before Heroes and Villains Al told a story I didn't entirely follow about all the versions of Heroes and Villains, which ended with him saying they were going to do the version "with the cantina." Besides the Love You and MIU tracks, that was a major highlight for me. There was also a funny moment when Gary Griffin and the band were making fun of how Mike Love sang Airplane. I laughed genuinely out loud, but I don't think most of the people around me understood what was happening  LOL Of course they nailed the hits, the Pet Sounds songs, etc. Al tried to skip Susie Cincinnati and Darian didn't let him, that was another kind of a funny moment.

All in all, if you have any chance to see this tour, don't miss it!!! It is truly something special.
