Title: Re: Beach Boys - Bonnaroo 2012 June 7-10 Post by: Summertime Blooz on February 14, 2012, 10:56:16 AM I think doing a festival like that will be a good way for the BBs to garner some new fans who never paid attention or took them seriously. The experience might also be a good influence on them as they will have the opportunity to see a lot of younger groups doing their thing. This is all very cool.
Title: Re: Beach Boys - Bonnaroo 2012 June 7-10 Post by: Justin on February 14, 2012, 11:03:32 AM With them doing some high profile gigs like the Grammys and now these festivals, it's a fantastic way to remind people of their legacy. Throw in the archive releases, which I hope get the same treatment as the Beatles catalog...this should regain some respect that Beach Boys had lost in the last 20 years.
Title: Re: Beach Boys - Bonnaroo 2012 June 7-10 Post by: roll plymouth rock on February 14, 2012, 11:04:35 AM Ha! Man, I went to this festival last summer for Buffalo Springfield. Hilarious the Beach Boys are playing, one of America's oldest running institutions at what has become one of America's new institutions for festivals. INSANELY hot and dusty @ 'Roo though... :3d
Title: Re: Beach Boys - Bonnaroo 2012 June 7-10 Post by: meltedwhiskeyinmyhand on February 14, 2012, 11:59:50 AM I went to the first 3 Bonnaroos, they were a great time. I really think the Beach Boys will get a great response there. No telling who will stroll out on stage with them there!

Great news, anyway. Title: Re: Beach Boys - Bonnaroo 2012 June 7-10 Post by: Shady on February 14, 2012, 01:23:08 PM I love the Beach Boys but standing in the sun with 100,000 people around me isn't really the ideal place to see them

Like Danny Glover's quote... "I'm too old for this sh*t". That is no longer my idea of a fun time. I hope they are coming to Philly. I guess we'll see tomorrow.Title: Re: Beach Boys - Bonnaroo 2012 June 7-10 Post by: CosmicDancer on February 14, 2012, 01:43:58 PM Currently weighing my desire to go to my first festival and see the Beach Boys against my fear of Tennessee in June... Great news, anyway. I'm from Knoxville, TN, which happens to be the home of the company that books the roo, and I will attest to the fact that TN in June is HOT AS HELL!!! Even still, I'm strongly considering going to my first Bonnaroo! There are some good acts playing this year alongside the boys. Title: Re: Beach Boys - Bonnaroo 2012 June 7-10 Post by: meltedwhiskeyinmyhand on February 14, 2012, 02:06:05 PM A couple of thoughts,
Taping is generally allowed at Bonnaroo (at least the years I went) so tapes from their set should be available after the show. Several tapers have started using Ustream and live broadcasting the shows, If a link pops up around then , I'll be sure to share it. The Bonnaroo website has been live streaming select acts the last several years (multiple cameras and a soundboard feed). Who knows, maybe the beach boys will do it, I think it would be great exposure to a younger crowd.

Who knows, maybe the beach boys will do it, I think it would be great exposure to a younger crowd. I was talking with a friend today about something similar. We were wondering if any shows would get streamed (like Brian's Stockholm (?) show a few years ago) or made public in some way. Their first performance is at a jazz festival and those things get filmed for TV from time to time. I would love to have some material of the boys at the end of the year Title: Re: Beach Boys - Bonnaroo 2012 June 7-10 Post by: roll plymouth rock on February 14, 2012, 02:52:54 PM Currently weighing my desire to go to my first festival and see the Beach Boys against my fear of Tennessee in June...

Even still, I'm strongly considering going to my first Bonnaroo! There are some good acts playing this year alongside the boys. The heat is compounded by being in the sun 12 hours a day and then camping in the heat! And its dusty. And it takes a long time to walk anywhere on site. But! Its a really really really fun time. Last year they had classic artists like Loretta Lynn, Wanda Jackson, Buffalo Springfield and they all went over well. If you are in Knoxville though you could go home at night after the fest.....best of both worlds Title: Re: Beach Boys - Bonnaroo 2012 June 7-10 Post by: meltedwhiskeyinmyhand on February 15, 2012, 06:31:59 AM The Bonnaroo website has been live streaming select acts the last several years (multiple cameras and a soundboard feed).

Do you know if it will be archived for later listening ? Let's hope they'll play the BBs EDIT: Just checked out WWOZ's site. Very nice radio stream right now. Good ol' Jazz and not this modern free jazz (I can't stand the latter very much). Love it ! Title: Re: Beach Boys - Bonnaroo 2012 June 7-10 Post by: sheknowsmetoowell on February 16, 2012, 02:34:31 PM Hopefully it will make up for their lack of presence at the '67 Monterey Pop Festival.

I emailed them and asked if they will broadcast the Beach Boys' set. This is the answer: We currently have not begun working on contract agreements for JF, however we tend to focus on the WWOZ Jazz Tent and the Blues Tent. Thanks for listening! Title: Re: Beach Boys - Bonnaroo 2012 June 7-10 Post by: Nicole on May 17, 2012, 03:32:07 PM The Beach Boys Facebook page still lists 6/9 and 6/10 as Bonnaroo performance dates, but the Bonnaroo website only shows the Boys performing on the 10th (3:00 - 4:30 PM). Is Sunday the only day they'll be there?
Title: Re: Beach Boys - Bonnaroo 2012 June 7-10 Post by: Justin on May 17, 2012, 03:34:57 PM Most likely yes.
Bands usually make one appearance during a festival weekend. There are a lot of other bands there to perform. Title: Re: Beach Boys - Bonnaroo 2012 June 7-10 Post by: Rocker on May 20, 2012, 03:35:06 PM http://www.antiquiet.com/news/2012/02/bonnaroo-2012-the-right-and-wrong-of-this-years-lineup/ (http://www.antiquiet.com/news/2012/02/bonnaroo-2012-the-right-and-wrong-of-this-years-lineup/)
Bonnaroo 2012: The Right and Wrong of This Year’s Lineup The Wrong: The Beach Boys: Sure, we understand that The Beach Boys are (mostly) living legends, but in 2012 there’s just not a lot of liveliness coming from the pride of Hawthorne California. After a disappointing performance at the Grammy Awards one wonders what long-dusty favors were called in for them to claim solid stage time at the Roo. With all due respect to John Stamos’ side gig, we’d have much rather seen this spot filled by Prince, who was heavily rumored to take part in this years’ affair. I'd like to know what the author thinks after the boys' performance Title: Re: Beach Boys - Bonnaroo 2012 June 7-10 Post by: Lowbacca on May 20, 2012, 03:59:47 PM If they continue the tour in the manner that audiences experienced them these past few weeks - they will be a highlight of Bonnaroo. And they'll be hip.
Title: Re: Beach Boys - Bonnaroo 2012 June 7-10 Post by: ♩♬🐸 Billy C ♯♫♩🐇 on May 20, 2012, 04:05:19 PM Wait...so they will be playing all three days? So, what about the 8th June show in the Woodlands?!
edit Dammit...bumping the old post caused me to think this was a NEW post and that my show was cancelled. :-\ :lol Title: Re: Beach Boys - Bonnaroo 2012 June 7-10 Post by: Shady on May 20, 2012, 04:11:27 PM Great time slot for the boys
Sun will be out on the main stage, no clashes with other bands so expect a huge crowd Title: Re: Beach Boys - Bonnaroo 2012 June 7-10 Post by: Zach95 on May 20, 2012, 07:25:05 PM I sure hope they don't mess this up, come on Boys! Show these hipster what you're mad of!

Title: Re: Beach Boys - Bonnaroo 2012 June 7-10 Post by: Cabinessenceking on May 21, 2012, 03:13:47 AM I think they should change their set list for this Festival. The crowd is young, many hipsters, many hipsters like PS and afterwards, so the setlists should be mostly PS, Smile, Sunflower, Holland and Love You. Ofc there should be a good 10 song selection of earlier songs, but this crowd does not want to hear 6 car songs in a row.
Fingers crossed for a progressive setlist which is more like that of the early-mid 70's!

Ofc there should be a good 10 song selection of earlier songs, but this crowd does not want to hear 6 car songs in a row. I guess they haven't rehearsed enough material to produce a significantly more 'artsy' set list for just one festival. They might shorten the set list and drop a few of the surf/car songs, that's the possibility I see. Then there's a high enough density of material which is considered valuable by hipster websites and magazines and they will be successful. Besides, the band rocks anything they play. :)Fingers crossed for a progressive setlist which is more like that of the early-mid 70's! Title: Re: Beach Boys - Bonnaroo 2012 June 7-10 Post by: hypehat on May 21, 2012, 04:37:57 AM If they just played their second set, that would go down fine - has a bunch of Pet Sounds songs, All This Is That, etc.

Fingers crossed for a progressive setlist which is more like that of the early-mid 70's! That's exactly what I thought when I saw this booking. I highly doubt the hip festival crowd wants to hear "409" or "Little Honda," or "Surfin' USA." Hell, I'm a big Beach Boys fan (why else would I be here?) and even I don't listen to those songs on my own volition. It'd suck if they went out there and proved to be the stereotype of what so many people think they are: a bunch of old fart has-beens who never got beyond the musical candyfloss of their earliest work. Title: Re: Beach Boys - Bonnaroo 2012 June 7-10 Post by: Justin on May 21, 2012, 02:16:18 PM Mike has always said that he gets his pop culture education from his daughter these days--hopefully she tells him how different the Bonaroo crowd can be. I can't imagine they'll change their set way too much considering all the songs we'd want them to play for this gig aren't in their current set.

Title: Re: Beach Boys - Bonnaroo 2012 June 7-10 Post by: Lowbacca on May 21, 2012, 02:24:39 PM Yeah, Mike's daughter ain't hip in that sense. She's way too mainstream. :hat At least that's what I gather. But no worries, the reunion has been managed splendidly so far, that's why I think they will rock Bonnaroo, FSHO. :3d
And I think that a good live rendition of "Surfin' U.S.A." would go down well with any crowd. Title: Re: Beach Boys - Bonnaroo 2012 June 7-10 Post by: Zach95 on May 21, 2012, 02:26:17 PM Yeah, someone pointed me to a video of Brian performing at Glastonbury when I said something along the lines of hipsters not enjoying Surfin USA and Fun, Fun, Fun. Yeah, I was really wrong.

Well Foster The People isn't exactly mainstream pop and she had dad listening to them a year before they performed together on the Grammys. Plus they are also playing at Bonnaroo. The line separating the Grammys crowd and the music festival crowd isn't too far off. Separated yes, but these days these music festivals are slowly becoming a place to "be seen at", so let's not assume it's overrun by snobby music hipsters that know better.

I can't believe things like this are said on a supposed Beach Boys fan board. Can you read? You bolded the least important part of that phrase. Let me correct it for you. I said, "the stereotype of what so many people think they are: a bunch of old fart has-beens who never got beyond the musical candyfloss of their earliest work." Where does that imply that I, a Beach Boys fan, believe they made jejune music in the early days? It only states what many people, fans and non-fans, know: that a lot of people write the Beach Boys' music off as immature pop songs about surfing, cars, and girls. Do you, in your Beach Boys myopic fandom, really believe that lots of people--especially young people--don't think that way? Especially the hip festival-going types? Once again, you either accidentally misread that or can't read very well at all.

I can't believe things like this are said on a supposed Beach Boys fan board. Can you read? Can you choke? You said earlier in that worthless screed that "even I don't listen to those songs on my own volition" (should be "OF my own volition", Poindexter), which leads one to think that indeed, you are comparatively dismissive of their early work, which is totally fine, but it is also fine for me to disagree and find that viewpoint surprising. I also don't know what book you took "jejune" from, but that was a laughable attempt at impressing yourself. People who are "hip", I mean truly hip, are highly aware of the greatness of the early Beach Boys hits. At that particular festival, most of the crowd, as with any other mainstream music festival, want to hear music they already know. Same with Coachella, Glastonbury, any of them. They'll love Surfin' USA. Title: Re: Beach Boys - Bonnaroo 2012 June 7-10 Post by: SMiLE Brian on May 21, 2012, 03:08:02 PM The early hits are great, but barbara ann isn't (never was supposed to) and its a song that "hipsters" like to pick on.

Dream scenario is "All You Wanna Do". They should ONLY do Barbara Ann if the crowd is loving the earlier work and if Mike does his Papa Oom Mow Mow part (the songs redeeming line!).

It'd suck if they went out there and proved to be the stereotype of what so many people think they are: a bunch of old fart has-beens who never got beyond the musical candyfloss of their earliest work. I can't believe things like this are said on a supposed Beach Boys fan board. Can you read? Can you choke? You said earlier in that worthless screed that "even I don't listen to those songs on my own volition" (should be "OF my own volition", Poindexter), which leads one to think that indeed, you are comparatively dismissive of their early work, which is totally fine, but it is also fine for me to disagree and find that viewpoint surprising. I also don't know what book you took "jejune" from, but that was a laughable attempt at impressing yourself. People who are "hip", I mean truly hip, are highly aware of the greatness of the early Beach Boys hits. At that particular festival, most of the crowd, as with any other mainstream music festival, want to hear music they already know. Same with Coachella, Glastonbury, any of them. They'll love Surfin' USA. I don't even know where to begin detangling that clusterf*ck of logorrhea; wait, should I use a simpler word instead? Apparently when I use adult words like "jejune," it gives you a reason to disparage me, as if learning new words through reading is in some way a reason for attack. How do you learn new words, going to thesaurus.com? As far as me not liking songs like "409," "Barbara Ann," et. al., so what? Does that mean I think they have no merit, or to quote myself, that they are musical candyfloss? No, it means I don't like them, simple as that. I don't think they are devoid of any redeeming qualities, I just don't like them. Just like I respect Schoenberg's "Pierrot Lunaire," but wouldn't listen to it unless there was a real compelling reason to do so. All I said--and I stand by it still--is that I believe that a crowd of young people who consider themselves musically hip would prefer hearing music from "Pet Sounds" and beyond as opposed to the relatively less adventurous earlier works. You can disagree with that position, but don't twist my words into something I didn't write. If you disagree, and believe the hipsters at Bonnaroo would in fact dig Ba-ba-ba-ba-barbara Ann, so be it; but don't accuse me of saying the early Beach Boys music was facile. I did not say that; I only said that it's my belief that the perception that they are exists. If you don't see that, than you've obviously not spent much time outside of the temples of Beach Boys worship. Title: Re: Beach Boys - Bonnaroo 2012 June 7-10 Post by: ♩♬🐸 Billy C ♯♫♩🐇 on May 21, 2012, 07:14:30 PM I think they should change their set list for this Festival. The crowd is young, many hipsters, many hipsters like PS and afterwards, so the setlists should be mostly PS, Smile, Sunflower, Holland and Love You. Ofc there should be a good 10 song selection of earlier songs, but this crowd does not want to hear 6 car songs in a row. Fingers crossed for a progressive setlist which is more like that of the early-mid 70's! That's exactly what I thought when I saw this booking.

In fact, in 17 years of being a fan, I've only started to appreciate their earlier work a few years ago. Now, I like pretty much all of it minus the debut album. It's your opinion, and you're entitled to it. Hell, everyone loves Don't Hurt My Little Sister, yet I hate that song with a passion. We're not all going to like the same sh*t. Doesn't make you any more or less of a fan. Title: Re: Beach Boys - Bonnaroo 2012 June 7-10 Post by: SamMcK on May 21, 2012, 07:52:26 PM I love the pre-Pet Sounds material, in fact I think quite a few song such as Please Let Me Wonder, Kiss Me Baby, All Summer Long, Surfer Girl etc are on the same level as Pet Sounds, besides that I never get tired of listening the many albums released in those years. Anyway if the Beach Boys were to perform more of there "hip" material I would love to see a setlist like this. ;)
1. Do It Again 2. Break Away 3. Surfer Girl 4. In My Room 5. She Knows Me Too Well 6. The Warmth Of The Sun 7. Kiss Me Baby 8. Please Let Me Wonder 9. Darlin’ 10. Aren’t You Glad 11. Cottonfields 12. Good Timin’ 13. Wind Chimes (with extended whispering winds coda) 14. Friends 15. Don't Worry Baby 16. Time To Get Alone 17. Let The Wind Blow 18. Country Air 19. Wonderful 20. Can’t Wait Too Long 21. Vega-Tables (Al singing lead) 22. I Get Around (Intermission) 23. Add Some Music 24. All This Is That 25. Feel Flows 26. Caroline No 27. I Just Wasn't Made For These Times 28. Marcella 29. Cool Cool Water 30. This Whole World 31. All I Wanna Do 32. Sloop John B 33. Wouldn’t It Be Nice 34. Forever 35. Sail On Sailor 36. California Saga/California 37. Heroes and Villains (including cantina section) 38. Surfs Up 39. Til I Die 40. God Only Knows 41. That's Why God Made the Radio 42. California Girls 43. Help Me Rhonda (Encore) 44. Good Vibrations 45. Surfin’ USA 46. Fun, Fun Fun I couldn't quite manage to fit in Johnny Carson for all 12 of us who would get it. ;D Title: Re: Beach Boys - Bonnaroo 2012 June 7-10 Post by: Landlocked on May 21, 2012, 09:07:04 PM I think they should change their set list for this Festival.

Title: Re: Beach Boys - Bonnaroo 2012 June 7-10 Post by: ♩♬🐸 Billy C ♯♫♩🐇 on May 21, 2012, 11:20:06 PM Let me quickly add that hearing the current band play the older songs, and my experience at Brian's 23 Oct 2004 solo show, has made me love most of the early stuff. In fact, my current favorite song right now is 'All Summer Long'.
Title: Re: Beach Boys - Bonnaroo 2012 June 7-10 Post by: Rocker on May 22, 2012, 02:53:24 AM The early stuff is boss ! Nothing as great as the early Beach Boys with Brian being in full control of his powers and still evolving. It's some of the most creative popmusic ever. Those harmonies, arrangements, productions and compositions...wow. Added to that the joy they bring to the music. Again, there's nothing like the early stuff starting especially with the Surfer Girl album. imo. not to put the later music down. I love that and think it's fantastic but it all builds on the early years and how they learned to make records then

I wonder if each band had to pay some kind of fee or amount in order to allow their performance to be broadcast? Or maybe some kind of term or restriction that the BB didn't agree with or something they didn't wanna pay? I'm honestly digging for SOMETHING for why they would back out...but coming up empty handed. Without any good reason we'd have to chalk it up to just the simple: they didn't want any sub-par ill-recieved performance to be broadcast all over the internets. They were nervous about it so they backed out. Title: Re: Beach Boys - Bonnaroo 2012 June 7-10 Post by: ontor pertawst on June 07, 2012, 03:00:36 PM easy, the fest didn't meet their price.

If they would allow streaming some people would certainly record it and then it will circulate the internet and damage sales of the live material they are releasing thus compromising profits and also their reputation if Bonnaroo performance is sub-par. they want their best to be out in the open, not something average or below. This is why they are recording several perfomances, to capture a good one, with good crowd etc. They might record Bonnaroo and eventually release it, but at some later stage (and if the recording is good enought).

And I spy with my little eye... 8) (http://i49.tinypic.com/2vakqdj.jpg) Maybe they'll change their mind last minute! Seeing the BB bass drum isn't a sign of them reconsidering the broadcast, the crew have just setup their equipment right behind Gary Clark Jr so it'll be a quick change between sets. Title: Re: Show 27: Bonnaroo Festival - Manchester, TN 6/10/12 Post by: Zach95 on June 10, 2012, 11:52:33 AM Yes, obviously, it was just a joke. I just thought maybe we'll catch a glimpse of them on stage.
Well, nothing. No glimpse, though I noticed underneath the video on the feed that a few people wanted to see the Boys. Oh well, let's hope there's some good video. Title: Re: Show 27: Bonnaroo Festival - Manchester, TN 6/10/12 Post by: Justin on June 10, 2012, 12:22:03 PM Good to see a lot of hype on Twitter for the Beach Boys. Lot of (young) people counting down the minutes till they hit the stage in 40 minutes--which is pretty cool that a lot of people have chosen the BB as part of their last day festivities before heading out of the festival.

Had they covered it...Twitter would've exploded with comments from everyone. It was just one guy who posted it so...probably didn't happen.

By the way, no Arcade Fire cover. Brian played bass for Barbara Ann and Fun, Fun, Fun which was cool! And it was Mike who said, "As we used to say in southern California: that was bitchin!" I don't know what prompted whoever it was to say/tweet that Mike was acting like a douche...maybe because he kept talking to the crowd, but he wasn't being douchey. He was awesome, IMO.

That's a fantastic picture, and so is the one with Brian and those girls. I wish I had seen their bus! Do they tour with three buses?

Then again, with a few tweaks and changes, it's such a testament to the *music itself* and those musicians on stage that these folks were hanging on every note of songs whose average age was 45+ years old.
In a world where "hit" artists barely last a year before their follow-up radio single drops and flops, that is pretty amazing. Great stuff. :) Title: Re: Show 27: Bonnaroo Festival - Manchester, TN 6/10/12 Post by: Jon Stebbins on June 11, 2012, 09:49:49 AM Looks like some gig!

Their New Orleans Jazz Fest set on this tour was about 30,000 according to Joe Thomas...this one looks much bigger.Is this the largest BB audience in recent years i.e after Live Aid one (Brian's Glastonbury gig was probably more) Title: Re: Show 27: Bonnaroo Festival - Manchester, TN 6/10/12 Post by: ontor pertawst on June 11, 2012, 09:54:24 AM There's something like 80k attendees for this year's fest claimed.

Every single person in the crowd that I saw, young and old, sober and wasted, thoroughly enjoyed themselves. Easily the highlight of my Bonnaroo experience.
I'm not surprised that "Sail on Sailor" went over so well, Brian seemed to really get into the vocal on that one. I sure as hell loved it!

Quote It was another reclusive-genius type who provided the weekend with its biggest surprise. The Beach Boys' Sunday afternoon set had all the trappings of sad-making state fair fodder: there's another band serving as a safety net behind the remaining five Boys, and villain/hero Mike Love still has the slight scent of used car salesman on him. The tempos have slowed some, the harmonies certainly don't pop like they used to, and 20 seconds into "Do It Again", it wasn't clear if everybody knew they'd gotten started. A few songs in, though, things got good, and kept getting better. The cars-and-surfboards songs are all but etched into America's DNA at this point, but no amount of boomer-ish mistiness for some imagined past can dull those melodies. And Mike Love pays just enough lip service to Brian Wilson that you almost forgive him for all those lousy years when John Stamos had him convinced he was Jimmy Buffett. Al Jardine's voice is spot-on, David Marks got off a couple truly ripping solos, and Bruce Johnston's clearly having a ball. Wilson, behind the piano through most of the set, isn't singing much, and when he does, it's a little shaky; he's got both a teleprompter and a guy to help finish his lines when he can't hit the notes. But when he takes the baton-- on "Heroes and Villains", a mini Pet Sounds-suite, and a knockout performance of "Sail On, Sailor"-- that cheaply nostalgic "'member when" feeling all but melts away. The songs from the new That's Why God Made the Radio are awfully schlocky and over-arranged, and nobody really needs to hear "Surfin' USA" and "Surfin' Safari" in a half-hour span. But they sounded better than any band who survived both Uncle Jesse and "Kokomo" ought to, and they absolutely nailed "Wouldn't It Be Nice". That's a good one to nail.

Was just about to post this. A really great review from them, if you ask me. I was pumped when I saw this.

After the Boys were done, most people stayed put for Bon Iver, who played at 5:30. It took me at least 25 minutes to get way over to the side so I could find a spot to sit in the grass...it was very stressful, haha! People really pack together at these shows. Sounds like a nightmare This is my favorite pic of Mike Love ever, from Bonnaroo (http://distilleryimage4.instagram.com/c4912688b28311e1b2fe1231380205bf_7.jpg) Yeah uh I like that picture :brow I'm sure Mike liked that picture too. "I must add you to my collection!" Title: Re: Show 27: Bonnaroo Festival - Manchester, TN 6/10/12 Post by: onkster on June 11, 2012, 06:06:52 PM Wife #6!

Where were Mike and Brian? Too busy with all those young ladies throwing themselves at them? Between that gal with Mike and those girls on the bus with Brian, you know their egos were getting really inflated.

Check it out! Honestly, this is like some of Mike's most inspired performances I've seen in a while. A few scenes reminded me of Knebworth 1980--I'm not sur if that's good but Mike shed like 30 years in this performance. Very cool to watch. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U7sObzLfrwQ&feature=channel&list=UL Title: Re: Show 27: Bonnaroo Festival - Manchester, TN 6/10/12 Post by: Cabinessenceking on June 12, 2012, 01:37:12 AM I'm really disappointed with that set... thought they would show their mettle instead of the car culture that few festival goers can relate to.
Title: Re: Show 27: Bonnaroo Festival - Manchester, TN 6/10/12 Post by: Rocker on June 12, 2012, 01:59:19 AM I wonder why there were so many positive reviews of Sail On Sailor. Brian certainly did better jobs on that song during this tour.

Brian certainly did better jobs on that song during this tour. He's also done a lot worse. And not everyone has been following this tour, natch. The Beach Boys dropping that song in a major festival set is still a big deal to the casual fan. Also, in this video of Good Vibrations, Brian clearly isn't feeling it - Jeff keeps pointing to him to sing the second verse, and Brian just, well, ain't. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eXVNsTr9QPY&feature=relmfu (before 'Jeff is Satan', I'm sure he's very much aware no-one wants to hear him sing GV - they want Brian) Kinda worried about Wembley in this event - the bigger the crowd, the more Brian gets freaked out and so things like this are more likely. Whilst Wembley is going to kick my ass into next week, kinda wish they did the RFH or something instead.

Must say from what I have seen and heard , Mike was superb at this gig ( he must have slept well after the show )- How does he do it ? I wish I had half his energy , and I am 25 years younger than him Title: Re: Beach Boys - Bonnaroo 2012 June 7-10 Post by: Yorick on June 12, 2012, 09:15:50 AM Throw in the archive releases, which I hope get the same treatment as the Beatles catalog... I would not expect this: The Beach Boys have Mark Linett on their payroll and he's not in the same league as the Abbey Road engineers who worked on The Beatles stuff!Title: Re: Show 27: Bonnaroo Festival - Manchester, TN 6/10/12 Post by: onkster on June 12, 2012, 10:42:36 AM And sadly, Beatles releases--Anthologies aside--have generally never had the bonus unreleased tracks like we've gotten on the two-fers and the 30th box set.
Capitol needs to get their BB and Fab teams together for a powwow, methinks. Title: Re: Show 27: Bonnaroo Festival - Manchester, TN 6/10/12 Post by: SG7 on June 12, 2012, 11:16:48 AM I think for the Beatles they have it somewhere there can't be any changes or additions added to any of their albums.
