Wow! They must really dig that karaoke driven type of irrelevance that M.E.L. pervades so effortlessly...Very cool! G-day mate-)  8)

the current lineup does a great job. sure, it isn't the same as 30-40 years ago. 2 members are dead.
but it is a fun show...well done. i will see them any time i can. scott does a damn fine job as musical director.
i have seen around 128 or so shows over the decades. a lot of the late '70's and most of the '80's ones were sloppy.
this lineup plays the music spot on. see them while you can.

I saw all those shows too Steve. At times they may have been sloppy, but I was seeing The Beach Boys and I soaked it all in. Nothing wrong with today's concerts but they are not nearly the same historical work of art.

I agree with Steve.

I've seen the Mike and Bruce Beach Boys about 10-12 times the last ten years (next time on July 20), and I'm happy to report that they are sounding great. And yes I saw the real Beach Boys in the 80's (also very good times!) 

I guess the main point is that the music and summer vibes are still happening, and if you have the chance to go---GO!
