PT PDX.

Please provide us with the  link on the article you mentioned..  I bet a lot of us would love to read the article... Well known fan and  good friend Bob Hanes from Eugene died 2 years ago . Darian and  Bob were close friends.,  so I'm thinking Darian dedicated Darlin' to him.  I wonder who was the guy sitting in front of you???

I don't know if this has been happening for a while, but Foskett, and maybe Mike, sing the missing couple of words at the end of the 2nd verse in GV..."we find" I think it is. The show was great...By the second half of the set most of the audience where I was danced, or at least stood up, which surprised me since 85% of the folks there were over 60!
Lame that there was absolutely no mention of Dennis or Carl, but both Stan and Maureen did the stand-and-wave thing.
    The only other lame thing was the terrible sound during the whole second set. Often there were almost no vocals heard at all, and the sound was quite thin.
   Dave sang Getcha Back better than ever and intrigued me the most. My lady also seemed jazzed by Dave.
   Bruce was a wild man, running around and clowning.
   Mike was exactly Mike. A buddy I ran into at the show said his banter was lame, but I really enjoyed Mike's weirdness.
   BW was acting kinda put off at first, but got more into it and even looked kinda happy 'playing' bass.
   I think Al is the guy that is trying to tell the fans that he understands that we love them, and he wants us to understand that they love us back.
   Cowsill really gets a good Denny vibe on the drums. He doesn't seem like the typical pro drummer at all.
   One guy who didn't look happy ever was Toten.
bed time...

They say it holds 5000 people.  Got to agree that the sound was hit or miss at times.

If the beachboysdoc insider on twitter is anything to go by, the big rigs bypassed the two smaller shows on went straight on to Harvey's lake..

Possibly to cut costs which makes sense

According to someone who would know.

Seriously, there was a Beach Boys Love You condom?!  Amazing.

Wow- I love the video wall, chronicling the immense history, first, for the LP buyer to remember the great corpus of work over time, and second, for the newbie fans, to get BB 101, but the teacher in me in me wonders whether the video wall might be projected on on simple stage screen, obviating the transport of that beautiful monstrosity except for locales which might more easily lend themselves to the set up and break down.  And, I don't read twitter or the other stuff, so this is my "information superhighway." (Al Gore )

Thanks for the photos, all... Wink

It was a great show!  Brian looked like a statue behind the grand piano during the first few songs, but after awhile he seemed to loosen up, waving his arms at the band and such.  I, thought the vocals could have been brought up quite a bit.  Where I was sitting (bottom of the upper grass area), the instrumentation sounded great, but I had a hard time hearing the lead vocals and sometimes the harmonies.

I really enjoyed hearing some of the lesser known (to the general public) tunes.  My friend asked me a few times, "When are they gonna get to the good stuff?"  I answered, "This is the good stuff.  You just haven't heard it 50 million times!"  It didn't take long for him to get hooked, though. 

The end of the show was just amazing!  The cheering of the crowd (and it was a crowd, the place was packed) was deafening.  Great times!

Btw, I was a pretty good friend of Bob Hanes.  He shared inside stories, memorabilia, videos, tracks, etc with me.  Any newer folks on this board can do a search, and you'll find that he was an occasional contributor here.

This is pretty cool, I would have loved to see them in a venue like this. Mike wearing a t-shirt certainly adds to the casual nature of it all too!

Foskett sings FLAT FLAT FLAT all the way through.

(oh, no, Mr. Farm, it's just the video that makes it seem that way. Jeff has perfect pitch!)  LOL LOL LOL

Otherwise, nice video. Thank you.

He was flat the whole show. I was disappointed as he kinda brought down the vocals consistently.

Darlin' was fantastic!  No video wall so no tributes, but a great show nonetheless.  I swear I was the only guy dancing in the place...luckily the folks behind me didn't seem to mind.  I have videos and photos to post later... Smokin
Darian Sahanaja just killed on lead vocals! He really can do Carl justice. Also, the vocal parts I thought were Bruce on 'Radio' are Darian.

And Bruce's falsetto on Disney Girls sounded alot better to me than Jeffs.

My first time seeing The Beach Boys. I was on the upper lawn section with my gf (tall blonde wearing a white sailors cap and Hawaiian shirt. I was very disappointed in the sound last night. VERY thin, almost no bass, and the vocals were barely audible for most of the 2nd set (couldn't hear Brian at all on Do You Wanna Dance). Super bummed there were no Carl/Dennis tributes. This was something I was looking forward to the most. Brian sounded really great and was moving around just fine. The audience was a bit unresponsive until the middle of the 2nd set when about 85% of the crowd stood up for the rest of the show. Too many people yelling out for Kokomo.

Darlin' sounded amazing. Was hoping to hear Our Prayer and This Whole World, but I'm not going to dwell on it. All in all, I couldn't stop smiling throughout the entire show. If they tour again with Brian though, I will travel wherever to see them at a better venue than this one.

I very rarely agree with your posts, but I agree here. Seems like Jeff was having a hard time hitting that next register in his falsetto in that video. I'm usually a big Jeff-backer, but the shows are taking a toll on his voice, might be wise to give the falsetto duties to Scott, Bruce or someone else for a couple shows.

Cool seeing the Kevin Love tee on Mike. Also good to know that Mike and Stan still get along since apparently Mike and Steve don't.

Have to agree on the sound!  David played all the leads and sometimes it was mixed too low.  Which he mentioned to me backstage, "Could you even hear me?".

Yeah, Mike did one of his crazy "Rock and Roll Hall of Fame style rants" against the Oregon Ducks for 5 minutes that did not go down well with the crowd and stopped the momentum of the show.  The band seemed befuddled. Started an anti-Mike chant of "Go Ducks".  Not his best intro of "Be True to Your School".
