The Smiley Smile Message Board

So we BB fans know how the band became a traveling jukebox, when it was is another question, whether it was 1976 or 1980 or 1991. To debate that is another topic for another time...but my challenge is to pick a year or a tour (preferably after Holland, but it's up to you)  and make the setlist more than just the oldies, maybe to promote the previous or upcoming album...so yes, you could use tracks that weren't ever play live (thus being a fantasy). anyways, just thought about the idea at work, haven't had time myself to think of one, but I'll post one soon.

I'd go for a show with a lot of the tunes from the 'In Concert' period but must include 'Feel Flows'. That would be the first half of the show and the second would be a complete 'Pet Sounds' deal as done by Brian a few years back. The proviso being the whole gig is to be the standard we have seen at both Brian and Mike/ Bruce shows the last 10 years. Top bands, clean, sober, slick and well rehearsed.

edit.

And as for a year? Any time when 6 Beach Boys could have taken the stage so I guess 79- 81ish.

My first will be early 1976 (my timeline isn't up to sequence), but the setlist I'm gonna do goes along the lines of promoting 15 Big Ones, before it came out, before the official album sequence was constructed.  If I screw up on a couple of songs for when they were written, I apologize in advance.

1. Do it Again
2. Oldies Medley (15 Big Ones)(each member gets a vocal)
-Rock and Roll Music (Mike)
-Come and Go With Me (Al)
-Sea Cruise (Dennis)
-Palisades Park (Carl)
3. Sail on Sailor (Billy H)
4. Long Promised Road
5. Susie Cincinnati
6. Good Timin'
7. That Same Old Song
8. California'
9. Everyone's in Love With You
10. Pacific Ocean Blues
11. Darlin'
12. Back Home
13. It's OK

15. Breakaway
16. California Girls
17. Marcella
18. Sloop John B
19. Wouldn't it Be Nice
20. Surfer Girl

Now is that a traveling jukebox still?

'79 - '81 clean and sober? Now that is a fantasy!

Jon. I was also going to mention my invite to the after show party. Wine, woman and song etc, then the invitation to stay for the whole tour!

Did I mention woman? ;)

This setlist goes along the same lines of my other one from 1976; this time it's a setlist from 1970, promoting Sunflower. Again, I apologize if the writing/performing of these songs don't link up in time line.
