Brian Wilson Taping Soundstage Special With Special Guests

[Dancing Bear]

I'm waiting for the new songs or Hold On Dear Brother.

That said, if Felipe is writing something that you disagree with, in my opinion it would be better to say that he's a moron who doesn't know what he's talking about than to question his English skills. Funny how someone's skills with a second language are never questioned when you agree with what he said.  

[alf wiedersehen]

I think an important question to ask (applied to this situation) is "Is my Portuguese better than his English?"

Never Mind!

The event that dare not speak its name.

You decided to remove your posting mentioning the mods had removed all the Youtube links for this show yourself?  
Or you were warned to do so, by one( 2,3?) of the mods??  

I realize there is a policy about boots, but does this mean that every link EVER posted of a YOUTUBE Video which may not be "legal" has been wiped from the media?  
There are hundreds of them there( or were; I haven't checked)
 Or is it only the new Brian links?   done quietly and without notification here.  

Ohhh, it's suddenly a time of massive censorship on this board

[The Cincinnati Kid]

I can understand the possible reasoning for taking the links down, but I hope an explanation is being crafted at this time.

That's kind of odd...  Was an issue made about this or is the board being (overly) cautious?

[startBBtoday]

Really enjoying the YouTube stuff, especially Al on Wouldn't It Be Nice, and Nate Reuss on all his leads, but who's doing that horrendous falsetto tag on California Girls?

Mickey Mouse with a sore throat?

Can the words 'Ed Pinchak' and 'Youtube' be used here?

Craig, are you at liberty to tell us a little more about this?  I can't imagine that the board mods decided on their own to delete the previous links and request that no more links be posted.  After all, YouTube is a legitimate site, owned by one of the largest corporations in the world, with millions of copyright holders happily monetizing, via YouTube ads, the appearance of videos containing their material.  As I'm writing this the videos previously linked are still up, but if a removal request has been submitted it may have not yet taken effect. 

I am looking forward to the PBS Soundstage presentation, and although it would not be a true representation of history, personally I'm in favor of just about any vocal post production and sweeting they wish to add, short of giving BW or anyone else a robotic sound.  And I'd be really surprised if they don't go to the trouble of sweetening the performance with some newly recorded vocals here and there, as was done a half century ago with the BB's first live album.

Is the concern that some entity doesn't want the public to see and hear the concert in it's original form?  Comments on this board have been quite positive, but are they concerned about some that have been less than stellar, such as some jerk on this board using the term "horrendous" to describe the falsetto tag on Calif Girls?  I can tell you unequivocally that the Calif Girls vocal tag done in the concert (by Brian E?) is ten zillion times better any vocal tag attempt that could have been attempted by the poster who made that comment.  "Less than stellar" would have been a much better description than "horrendous".

[Pretty Funky]

They are still on Brian's own message board.....Go figure?

[bgas]

They are still on Brian's own message board.....Go figure?

Which is why it seems silly to have yanked the links from this board

[stack-o-tracks]

Are the suits all up in here, or is it me? It really is a mystery....

If the mods the links they yank, they're still on Youtube to be frank, now what the hell?


Strange, really. All the links are still on YouTube, though a nice video of Sail On, Sailor has been taken down from an Instagram account, leading me to believe the suits are involved somehow. Don't they know that zero people who use the internet watch PBS, and zero people who watch PBS use the internet?

Just a reminder that you can always download streaming media before the powers that be try to pull it from the internet in their attempt at what I would call "damage control."

YOU CAN REMOVE THE VIDEOS BUT U"LL NEVER TAKE MY LOW BITRATE BOOTLEGS!!1!1111one!!!


Suits probably don't want people to know how good the show actually was before Joe Thomas gets his fuckin' robot singing hands all over it.....

That's kind of odd...  Was an issue made about this or is the board being (overly) cautious?

We were informed that a certain record company is giving YT movies from Brian's Vegas concert more than average attention at the moment, regarding copyrght infringements. Which is the reason why we don't want to take any risks right now. There wasn't any reason to warn about this prior to the concert as we only got word on this after the performance. So we understand it might come accross as a sudden and hurried decision. Call it 'overly cautious' if you will, but we'd rather do it this way than getting official warnings about it.

When it comes to posting links to YT we usually don't make a problem of it. And one can question if even so much as posting a link (in this case) would harm this board. On the other hand we know this is one of those boards that is monitored on a regular basis. And by posting links, we actually make it an easier job for a record company (or for that matter anyone) to easily look up these movies and get them removed. I'm sure more movies will pop up on YT these next couple of days. So if you really want to see and hear Brian's new songs or parts of the gig in general, my advise would be to actively screen YT, and if they do surface, enjoy them while you can. Posting a link here will only get them removed even more quickly.

Please believe us that we wouldn't do this if we didn't take these signs seriously.

Probably get something along the lines of this I got in 2008....

I put it on for my own pleasure..... Never again Sir!

[Fall Breaks]

I love Saturday Night On Hollywood Blvd! Reminds of We Are Golden by Mika.

Thanks for the clarification, SMiLE Holland.

The labels really need to look at themselves in the mirror when they're wondering why the music business continues to evaporate.  Is there anything more daft than shutting down free promotion?

[Lee Marshall]

Thanks for the clarification, SMiLE Holland.

 Is there anything more daft than shutting down free promotion?

No.  Every 'play' is a free 'ad' for the artist and/or the album in whatever form it's available for the use of the consumer...or in this case...eyes on the show and then on the dvd.  At NO time since the advent of the 45 rpm disc has anything remotely connected to the music industry been done with any kind of 'smarts'.

As for 78s and sheet music before it?  Up YOURS"...I'm not THAT old.

[NickandthePassions]

Saturday Night on Hollywood Blvd. is fantastic!  No Pier Pressure looks like it'll be a great one. I just don't want one of the artists to get too much fame singing one of Brian's songs.

[GoodVibrations33]

Anybody see Brian hobble off stage and knock his chair over after "Fun, Fun, Fun"?  Is he having back problems again?  I thought he was on the mend, he seemed to be doing better up until I saw this.

[Cam Mott]

It's kind of Brian's Kokomo.
