So, finally got enough time to finish up 1972 on my site-Beachboysgigs.com . Feel free to check it out! Has lots of reviews, ads, photos (I try when ever possible to use a photo from the show-but it is not always easy to find one for every concert (though I am sure they exist somewhere...) but all the photos are 1972.  You can also look at 1962-1971 gigs-which I have tweaked occasionally-when something new appears or a photo pops up.  I also have an updates blog-which is up to 1972 right now-that is updates to my book with Jon-such as shows we did not know about when we wrote it-or perish the thought-corrections to mistakes....

Fascinating stuff. Thank you Ian!

Thanks!

Wonderful! I didn't know the show on Feb. 25th was even filmed. So there is a filmed live performance of the Beach Boys playing "Surf's up" out there somewhere. That is the kind of stuff I hope will be used in the new documentary.

There is a lot of footage sitting in the vaults from the late 60s to the 80s-but due to all the rights issues-some may never see the light of day-or it may be in the scrap heap-but the Grand Gala was filmed (at least in part)
