Title: Surfin' USA 50th vid & new Mike Love website Post by: The Shift on March 25, 2013, 11:28:30 PM Just came across this via David Beard's Beach Boys Examiner's Surfin' USA anniversary interview with Mike Love and David Marks:
http://youtu.be/TaZ2L5JnVQc Have to say it's the most professionally polished unwatchable video I think I've seen. Those bits of script you have time to read have the odd grammatical error, which is sloppy; the transitions and overlaid text and, erm, effects just detract from the content and give the viewer nausea. It's like every trick possible has been thrown in "because we can!". The clip sources are, however, the very best. The music is of the highest calibre. If it ain't broke n' all that… Title: Re: Surfin' USA anniversary video Post by: The Shift on March 26, 2013, 12:54:24 AM Whoa!
Now it makes sense: http://www.mikelove.com/ Title: Re: Surfin' USA 50th vid & new Mike Love website Post by: Lowbacca on March 26, 2013, 01:39:38 AM Lame.
And also: "loosely based". :lol Title: Re: Surfin' USA 50th vid & new Mike Love website Post by: Peadar 'Big Dinner' O'Driscoll on March 26, 2013, 01:46:35 AM Id say there were quite a few shows between 67 and 73 where it was not played

Title: Re: Surfin' USA 50th vid & new Mike Love website Post by: Emdeeh on March 26, 2013, 12:22:32 PM Hhhm, the navigation buttons are cut off at the bottom and the scroll bars don't work properly on at least one of the pages. (Using Firefox on a Mac.)
Title: Re: Surfin' USA 50th vid & new Mike Love website Post by: Justin on March 26, 2013, 12:40:53 PM They basically made a 3 minute video from what reads like a Facebook status update written by Mike. Was that really necessary? It looks great but really no point to the whole thing.
New website looks great though.

Was that really necessary? It looks great but really no point to the whole thing. I felt like I was watching TV in the 60's and had to adjust the "Horizontal Hold" to fix the flipping of the picture.New website looks great though.
