Title: Sydney Morning Herald "review" Post by: Cyncie on September 03, 2012, 12:01:59 PM This came in my Google alerts today. I don't know what concert the reviewer saw, but there was nothing "washed up" about the performances on this tour that I saw live, or on YouTube.

It has bad style and is simply mean-spirited. Also, not a single word on the music itself is dropped. It reads as if an ignorant 14-year-old wrote it:
Quote The Beach Boys' former creative force, Brian Wilson, is 70 but seemed closer to 90, sitting slumped and stony-faced throughout the show and looking, in portly profile, like a cross between Homer Simpson and Mr Burns. ::) Fortunately, nobody close to the BBs music (or close to decent journalism, for that matter) could this "article" seriously.

Thats says it all really! I went to the Melbourne show and loved it. Only took 50 years to see them for the 1st time haha. Luke |
