Broome County Veteran’s Memorial Arena, Binghamton NY, June 15th - Mike wasn't at this show (or the next four) due to a strep throat.

I always thought Dennis looked best without the beard.
OMG that big guy is a doppelganger for Brian during his 300+ lb days. Unbelievable.

Thank you, Ovi!  It really does look as if Dennis could still have been saved at this point... |

I agree. A lot of people say Dennis looked horrendous in '83, but I don't agree. He was by far still the best looking guy in the group, and I say that as a heterosexual male. Dennis was pretty much always good looking.

The Blakely guy was year late for 1983 Brian who was thin due to Landy's kidnap and Hawai regimen, but he sure is a dead ringer for '82 Brian

I agree. A lot of 1983 Dennis pictures are tough to look at, but he looks pretty good and happy here. Maybe it's because Mike wasn't there.  And yes, if Brian had missed shows in 1981 or 1982, Barry Blakelee could have sat at the piano and people might have bought him as Brian. |

These pictures are baffling to me -- because I lived 17 miles from Binghamton, N.Y. in 1983, was a big Beach Boys fan even then, and had no awareness of this show and did not attend it.

Wait a minute...something else is fishy here.
That's fat Brian. Brian had slimmed down by June '83. This has to be '82. (I am pretty sure it is not '81 because Brian wasn't quite that big then, and I also remember seeing them in Sept. '81 in Syracuse at the New York State Fair...so if they had been in Binghamton I think I would have gone)
EDIT: Sorry, I missed the posts above...that's NOT Brian? Holy crap. You guys are right...scary resemblance.
Well, I guess it was '83 then. Weird.

OP says it isn't Brian. It's someone named Blakeslee.

Maybe I'm reading too much into it, but the look on Denny's face in that selfie pic makes me seriously sad. |

I agree with you but the fact that he wasn't even in his 40s yet makes me sad  . If he was still alive today and looked like that, no doubt he would still be considered "the hot one"  . his beard suited him well but not all the time, (sometimes I thought it was too thick) I also agree with the poster who said he was the best looking one without the beard, and I think for the most part the best bearded BB was Carl |
