He flings poo at a piano and whatever keys it lands on is the song! That's how we got(or didn't get) UTL.

This:
O
1 - "WH" is a bona fide Top 40 hit, not a deep cut: it's on all the major compilations.

2 - BA&D don't have anything like the name recognition of The Beach Boys (any version you care to name), so straying too far from the GH path isn't likely or sensible.

Right. I'm not saying WH is a deep cut it's just a little off the beaten path of a normal BB's 21st century set. I previously subscribed to the notion that the general public didn't know who Brian Wilson was anymore. But after the response he would get at the C50 shows it's clear people still know who he is. Sure they might think Al Jearu is touring with him but they still know BW. What about the YouTube clips of him doing "I'd love just once to see you" "Drive-In" I would take either of those.

The video was awesome! Cheesy as hell but awesome because they actually look like they're having some fun. If Carl/Brian weren't into the song and attempting to make a cooky video then we would of been able to tell! Granted, Brian is a little spaced out on the faux live tv performance but that 80's Brian for you.

If you can look past some of the production and try and put yourself in 1986(Dear God...) then it really works! After Carl wails his "You better get ready, now go, cat, go" and Brian comes in with his "Long tall Sally.." line. Ah! SO GOOD!

I feel like this song could of been on the SDASN album only way more "Brian Wilson"-esque sounding (Crazy to think it was 21 years after SDASN!!). Did Terry Melcher write the music to this?

TWGMTR Suite, a few more Brian solo tunes and anything from LY would be mind melting. Although, you could give me even one of the three and it will be unforgettable.

If the M&B show can pull out stuff like WH then what's stopping BAD from delving a little deeper?

Well, if it's ever going to happen I think it will be on this tour! Airplane would be nice but I think if they do any LY tracks it will be HDTH. They could do a damn good version of TNWSY, I can hear it now! Dave doing those guitar licks in the verse?? Would be awesome. As far as Brian's singing goes, I know at times he get's super shrill when he tries "belting" it but if you ask me when he really gives a sh*t about a song he can conjure up that sweet BW tone we all love! I really hope this tour is more than what is currently expected, who knows. I will report from the Pittsburgh gig!

If they play a LY song I sure hope it's Airplane. (though any of them would be both awesome and unlikely)

Last time Al toured with Brian there was an interview in which Al was mentioning "Honkin' down the highway" and that they should do it. Never happened iirc. Maybe this time.
I guess that it will be kinda like C50. I'm afraid though that they (Brian, Al, David) expect this to be something like a continued C50 with all the success and fun. Obviously this won't be anything like the Beach Boys tour but tell that the boys...

What do you think will be radically different from the C50 setlist? Brian solo tunes? Al solo tunes??...DAVE SOLO TUNES??? I hope so. At least some more BB deep-cuts(take your pick). I'm hoping for some LY material myself.

What little info I can add is I messaged Scott Bennett on Facebook and he said they will not be playing "Surf's Up" because "it was very, very difficult for Brian." Fair enough.

Anyway, post any info/questions etc related to the BAD tour set!

I love this song!! One of the best Brian vocals of the 80's imo. They should totally do this on the BAD tour!

I really dig this thread! To anyone who doesn't own the album and is curious just sign up for Spotify and you'll have access!

Listened to the whole thing. I tried so hard to like it but DAMN are those vocals processed to sh*t! Why?! I could handle the mild auto tune on TWGMTR but this sounds like the work of some dumb tween's first dubstep demo. It's pretty bad. At times I would even Invision huge, titanium robot BB's awkwardly girating as they begin to spark and smoke. It's just too much! How this got released is beyond me. (DBD, DIA, ASM...just a few of many that are unbelievably bad.)

I'm just so pleased we're got this far on both live album threads without the dreaded "H" word being used. I really think we all deserve a pat on the back.

I know how you feel lol. I was second row at the Sands concert. I was a maniac. Even my father was dancing and this is a man who has suffered a few ministrokes over the last few years.

Right on, dude! That's the power this music can have.

Please PM me Steve!

I mix all of my bands tracks so send me TID my way and ill see if I can get something you dig!

Sounds like a bad combination of medication and alcohol

Sounds great! Just PM what you have and what you need!

Lolz. Was 22.

Lol, nope. My girlfriend and I rushed the front of the stage during FFF so it was the first time I was that close the whole show. Bit of a mindfuck.

Similar to Brian's in Largo '77

I took this at the 50th show in Pittsburgh in May '12. Needless to say I was pretty excited to be just feet away from BW and the BB's!

Hey guys! I do lead vocals and guitar for the band Black Ridge. The best way I can describe our music is 21st Century Psychedelic Rock with blues roots. We're all in our early 20's and record the music ourselves. Let me know what you think!

SI is some of my favorite stuff to listen to.

Send me something!

Why waste all of your time posting about this? Clearly, theres only one answer sufficient enough to describe what he may look like. sh*t. That's it, sh*t. He would look like a walking pile of dog sh*t. How about right before he died? Bloated, wrinkled and overall tired looking. 30 years later? I don't even want to know.

Yeah, I really doubt they'll play it. Honestly, I hope they don't as well lol. I want to hear some Love You cuts or MAYBE Don't Fight The Sea??

While reading about guitarist, Mike Bloomfield, I came across this..
 
"In 1974 Bloomfield hooked up with a failed supergroup called KGB, from the initials of Ray Kennedy (co-writer of "Sail On, Sailor"), Barry Goldberg on keyboards and Bloomfield on guitar. The band had a rhythm section of Rick Grech on bass and Carmine Appice on drums. Grech and Bloomfield immediately quit after its release, stating they never had faith in the project. The album was not well received, but it did contain the standout track "Sail On, Sailor". Its authorship was credited only to "Wilson-Kennedy", and had a bluesy, darker feel, along with Ray Kennedy's original cocaine related lyrics."

Thoughts and/or preferences?
