Title: Just Wondering? Post by: Pretty Funky on March 27, 2007, 05:04:33 PM Just interested after seeing the good reviews and setlists for both groups this year. Please read as hypothetically you can only attend one show.
Title: Re: Just Wondering? Post by: JimC1702 on March 27, 2007, 06:12:57 PM Definitely Brian and Al and Brian's band (and Taylor!). I have no desire to go see Mike wheeze through his nose.
Title: Re: Just Wondering? Post by: Mahalo on March 27, 2007, 06:27:58 PM I voted for Brian and Al....UNLESS Mike Love can levitate on stage during the finale to Fun!Fun!Fun!
Title: Re: Just Wondering? Post by: Magic Transistor Radio on March 27, 2007, 08:20:40 PM I am not suprised at the results thus far.
Title: Re: Just Wondering? Post by: melissalynn on March 27, 2007, 09:18:55 PM Brian and Al all the way.
Title: Re: Just Wondering? Post by: Rocker on March 28, 2007, 02:13:16 AM Brian and Al ! They (that is Brian) still got the best band around. I don't like many of the guys Mike and Bruce use.
Title: Re: Just Wondering? Post by: Eric Aniversario on March 28, 2007, 02:16:37 AM Of course I voted Brian and Al, but that doesn't necessarily mean that I'm not looking forward to Mike & Bruce later this year...they always seem to toss in something new each year for the past 4 or 5 years or so...
Title: Re: Just Wondering? Post by: southbay on March 28, 2007, 03:40:25 PM Brian & Al, no contest. However, I wouldn't mind seeing them do Mike's set list...
Title: Re: Just Wondering? Post by: Sheriff John Stone on March 28, 2007, 04:36:35 PM However, I wouldn't mind seeing them do Mike's set list... That was the point I was trying to make on MBE's thread about Mike & Bruce's concert. Their (Mike & Bruce's and Brian & Al's) setlists overlap on a lot of songs. I guess that's a good thing if you're hoping for some kind of meeting down the road, as I am. :police: Title: Re: Just Wondering? Post by: MBE on March 28, 2007, 05:02:26 PM I would say Brian and Al too but Mike and Bruce's show is worth seeing if they are playing the right kind of venue ie an indoor theatre.
Title: Re: Just Wondering? Post by: Pretty Funky on March 29, 2007, 03:45:17 PM Wow! Brian and Al hands down. Guess it is the novelty factor of having Al on board. With the BW tour this year unlikely to get the interest of PS or SMiLE tours, the addition of Al gives that extra boost.
On the subject of setlists. Compare this Mike, Bruce (and Dave), May 98 meat and potato list to what they are playing today. I put the addition of the rarities today down to what Brian offers. Bruce and others also may have wanted to spice things up. From Eric A's site. SETLIST 1. Surfin Safari 2. Catch A Wave 3. Hawaii 4. Do It Again 5. Dance Dance Dance 6. Do You Wanna Dance (Bruce) 7. Surfer Girl (Matt/Chris on bridge) 8. Don't Worry Baby (Matt) 9. Little Deuce Coupe 10. 409 11. Little Old Lady From Pasadena 12. Shut Down 13. I Get Around 14. In My Room 15. Then I Kissed Her (Matt) 16. California Dreamin' (Matt/Phil alternate verses) 17. Summer In Paradise 18. Sloop John B (Chris/Mike) 19. Wouldn't It Be Nice (Matt) 20. Good Vibrations (Matt) 21.
