Beach Boys early '80s TV interview

[mikeyj]

During Midnight Special in 1979 he keeps interuptting Al drunkedly while Jardine is trying to introduce the Byrds. The 1983 video of him singing You Are So Beautiful is pretty sad.

It made my eyes water the first time I watched. It's weird that he died  not long after that.

Yeah I almost cried when I saw that footage too. That's possibly the saddest piece of Beach Boys footage!!

The saddest for me is in the EH docu when Carl sings "Surfer Girl" at the end. 

[Sheriff John Stone]

There is that footage of the band at the White House in 1983 with President and Nancy Reagan. Dennis is having trouble standing still and he appears to be bugging a slimmed-down Brian. Oddly enough it is Brian who is trying to be respectful, shrugging off Dennis and listening to President Reagan, who is speaking.

Al was tryin to introduce McGuinn Clark + Hillman...Also.. If U watch the 77 Maryland video there is a part where Dennis is up front talking standing next to Mike.. Dennis starts to weave + move backwards.. Mike moves to his right..Out of the way of Dennis..Dennis is startin to fall + Mike doesnt try to help him.. Dennis grabs a piano behind him + steadys himself..
Observation..We know Mike + dennis had issues.. But to move out of the way + let him fall in public..!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.... Total BS.. Now watch any video when Dennis Comes up front to sing SG + Rhonda.. He is allways lookin At Mike + smilin.. Tryin to make him smile + laugh.. Puttin his arms around Mike..I think Mike has a forgivness problem..??..!!! Lawsuit anyone..?? LOL..!!

There's a video on Youtube where Dennis puts his arm around Mike and "flirts" with him. Even Mike couldn't keep a straight face. Dennis could charm the scales off a fish.

Are you talking about the 1977 CBS show when their singing Surfer Girl?

[Pretty Funky]

May be referring to SG on Knebworth also.

In the 1977 Maryland video, they are singing "Surfer Girl", when Dennis starts to fall. Mike moves out of the way, and Dennis's back hits a keyboard. Dennis also falls again during a later part of the show. When the band comes back onstage for the encore, Dennis falls into his drumset.
