My Bb Christmas came early this year with MIC, BAD tickets, two Mike and Bruce Shows, a Bruce Johnson autograph of Goin Public, a cool Bb Ball cap, and a Randall Kirsch BB guitar pic.

Happy holidays everyone!

I feel like I scored this Christmas.

I got a:
Sunflower LP
In Concert LP
The TAMI Show DVD
Vintage t-shirt iron on with Surf's Up cover figure on it
A sketchbook made out of an old copy of Best of Beach Boys Vol 1
Two packs of Beach Boys cards - which is more exciting to me than it might sound because I've been looking for these around town since they came out and could never find them.
And a Beach Boys trading card with Brian Wilson "concert gear" on it - some black velvety material

I was also lucky enough to get a Christmas bonus from my work which I blew on:
The Made in California box set (I never even listened to this on Spotify, so I have been in heaven all week listening to all the new stuff and reading the book)
Sealed Bruce Johnston LP (from a long-ago cut-out bin)
The Honeys Ecstasy LP
Big Beat 1963 Album Download

The BB fan's equivalent of coal in the stocking. Jk, a bit. Some useful insights in there but awfully hard to separate the treasure from the trash. I did read it in a few days but I felt like I needed a good shower afterwards.

While I'm aware of this book's shortcomings, it was what finally turned me on to the Beach Boys. I don't know how the original is stylistically, but the German translation is very well written, a great read. Take it as a novel based on facts, with lots of invented stuff in there as well.

I was hoping for Made In California, but no such luck. My birthday is less than a month away, though  Undecided

I did, however, manage to get my hands on a 120 piece basic set of BB cards and a pack that had a Mike Love pick in it for Christmas, though. And that made me super excited. I'll take the Mike Love pick over a blank white placeholder in my card pack any day lol.
