That was great! Would love to see more videos of the Friends stuff.

With the exception of apparently zoning out during Good Vibrations from those clips Brian looked like the Brian of about ten years ago or so as far as being animated. It was cool to see him smile and wave

I went to the Something Great From '68 show at the Hard Rock Casino & Hotel on 2019/08/31 which happened to be the first date of the tour. I tried to smuggle in my little audio recorder but security seemed too tight when I first showed up so I abandoned the project. However, I collected every possible cell phone video that people were willing to give to me and "borrowed" some from YouTube, Instagram & Reddit and in the end was able to make a concert video for both the Zombies (about 24 minutes worth) & Brian Wilson (about and hour and 10 minutes worth). When I had more than source, I mixed it into stereo. Some people may be frustrated by the lack of Friends material (only 2 seconds worth of "Wake The World" for instance) but I only missed 2 songs from the BW set: "Darlin'" and "Passing By". Everything else is here, complete or otherwise. Enjoy it for what it is, a document of latter day Brian Wilson with his band performing a set mostly consisting of material that covered 1967-1972.
Note: Links removed because nobody here gives a f***. At least at another message board, my videos (which were very time consuming to make) were acknowledged. Goodbye to this sh*t hole.

This is looking like a great time for BW and his band. If only Nicky could be there (although he is there in spirit). Just listened on FB the band rehearsing Friends before the show last night. Absolutely wonderful

Forgive me if this has been answered but have they on-boarded a new guitarist since Nicky's passing? Definitely mean no disrespect to Nicky with this question.

It’s Carnie’s husband, Rob, who was in Matt’s spot last year. He’s swapped in during some dates with Randall Kirsch.

Very happy to see Brian delivering such a strong performance! I have been worried for him, yet this doubter here has clearly got it all wrong

Money quote from the Variety review:
" So if your goal is to remember him exactly as he was in 1965, it’s good that you stay home and save the seat for someone with less stupid goals. If you’re there to celebrate someone who’s been dealt some tough hands in life but still has the urge to bring it — and who’s the most lovable, respectable and fragile contributor to the otherwise superhuman philharmonic assembled in his name — then this really was the place for you."

But honestly, you're getting both. As long as Al Jardine's on stage with Brian there's still someone that sounds like 1965 on stage! Seriously though, well written review. The clips I've seen are encouraging. I wish I could catch this tour.

I adore this paragraph as well:
On stage for this affecting finale, his group provided that shelter, almost literally in the final visual. As those who follow news accounts know, Wilson had to cancel the planned start of this tour because he was feeling “mentally insecure” and “struggling with stuff in my head”; the demeaning voices he’s spoken of hearing had returned perhaps. How stirring it is, then, to know that for at least an hour and a half every night on tour, these are the voices Wilson gets to hear — loving ones echoing back his own in supportive and glorious harmony.
What a lovely sentiment, and a great review. Thanks for sharing. Can't wait for the NYC show.

Saw Ben Gibbard was the special guest tonight. Wonder what he sang with them? Personally, I love death cab, great band. Cool to see them together.
Zooey Deschanel sang on the "no pier pressure" album, who he was married to at the time, wonder if he met Brian that way.

I noticed the lead singer of The Zombies sang GOKs in this Seattle clip. Nice job but I do think that should be Brian period. Perhaps he was unwell? https://youtu.be/xLz_5hrC5Yg

It's so wonderful, the wide variety of fans Brian has. On his FB page today concerning last night's Seattle concert, actor Bill Mumy (Twilight Zone, Alfred Hitchcock, Lost in Space and other shows) left a nice message for Brian - "you're the sweetest soul ever."

I think they're going for a "guest stars" theme on this tour for whatever reason, whether it's to lighten the load on Brian, or if it's to goose last minute ticket sales (in the case of announcing guest stars just prior to gigs).
Might be fun to get the opposite going on; maybe get Al to sing a Zombies song or something.
