Do you think we can persuade him to dust off Big Sur next?
He really, really should. And to throw a curveball at the naysayers, how about dusting off the 1970 arrangement?

Mike's vocal sounds much better!
That's very good, makes you wonder why the song was never given an airing back in the day.
That does sound quite good, and Mike looks like he's feeling it and giving his A-game. Gotta give props, and glad that Mike is no longer overlooking this gem of his and Brian's. I wonder if this song was ever even considered for playing live in the early 70s.
Love it. Sounds great... Hope it sticks around for the US tour.
And yes, Big Sur would be another real treat.

I agree, much improvement from the debut. Seems to be a fairly challenging vocal and I'm glad to see it make the setlist in the UK. Of all the new "deep cuts" I hope this makes it back to the states later this summer.
You are right, Nicko.
I assume this was a shot at me for thinking this was a positive performance? I assure you I am a brand new member, having never posted to the board before under any other name. I've been lurking for about nine months. Learned a lot from reading the board. Recently picked up Stebbins "In Concert" book and wanted to join the discussion.
I'll be seeing both Brian Wilson (Al Jardine and Blondie) and the M&B Beach Boys in July. I'm looking forward to both shows equally.

That Scott picked up the song suggestion from this board, proposed it to Mike, and then championed the arrangement and led the rehearsals for it, cannot be thanked enough.
Thank you Scott!

Much better and then at about 0.57 secs it sounds like the recorded vocal, tenderly sung. Nice one!

It shouldn't be overlooked that out of some fans' request (right here) he went as far as singing All I Wanna Do, which requires a singing style he seldom, if ever, used before or after in his career. The mere fact that he went for it, in such a heartfelt manner, is praiseworthy for me. But not only that... he also sounds pretty cool in it.
My only minor quibble with the arrangement is having John sing a line that is sung by (I believe) Bruce in the original. Nothing against John's wonderful soulful voice, but I prefer Bruce's airy tone in that section. BTW, I think John should try one or two Dennis leads like Baby Blue, Be Still or something like that.

That's absolutely beautiful. If Mike keeps going with this current lineup and setlist, I might actually want to go see them!

I like John C and he's been a fabulous replacement as drummer, but I couldn't help but notice when watching the AIWTD recording that when he chimes in it sounds quite tinny. I've heard this before, like on his rendition of Wild Honey.

They mike him that way to make Mike Love sound better in comparison

wow...
I've been a little taken away from BB's fandom as of late due to a new job and moving into a new apartment so I've missed a lot of news..
Mike is doing "All I wanna Do" live?
Thanks so much for the video, Mike gave it his all. See this is what a great guy Mike is, doing a song he knows the true fans love...for the true fans..
Thanks Mike, beautiful.

I found John's section a touch jarring initially. But then, on this live version, this part is a bit heavier (in a slightly grungey way) than on the original recording and using John for the vocal as he's like the 'rock' element of the band. I figured they could have gone for a smoother, more lush approach for it like on the record, but chose not to. Maybe they felt it needed more punch in a live setting. Anyway, for me it just took some getting used to, a live version of this being so new, and now I don't mind it. Maybe it'll change and develop over time if they keep it in the setlist.

Not on August the 10th? That's what the official website has.

Tell me about it! So beautiful it hurts. Thanks to Ike it's got some poetic sheen to it. I read along & the next thing I liked was All This Is That - Chris didn't sound like Carl to me, as others said, but he did on I Can Hear Music! SJB is surprisingly well done. I'm really liking the idea w/ orch. They should hire it more.
I'm not one of fans who clamored for AIWD, & I still think that Cowsill has bad voice, but actually his line sort of gave it an edge. Mike did okay. Aging took its toll, obv.

Playing in WV tonight. Ran inTo Bruce at the town center mall....3 times this afternoon. spoke to us for a few minutes. Seemed to be getting off by himself for a bit so we didn't linger. Asked if we were retired and when we said yes, he reminded us of his age and said he was still working. I think he was tired. Scott and John seemed tired when I saw them in March. Must be a grueling tour for a group of older and aging guys. Looking forward to the show tonight.

Too cool! Very interested in the setlist...here's to something close to what they did overseas!
