I've never seen Brian so excited to play Do it Again.  This video is an oddity because we hear Brian in a really happy mood.  I don't mean to be rude, maybe he was coming off of Landy's psychotropic drugs, or maybe he was happy...  I have no idea.  Does anyone have more info on what happened here?  Thank you!   Smiley

Brian was separated from Landy in 1992, he was doing very well by this point.  As for his mood, I get a feeling this was a very intimate performance for just friends and associates.  I've never heard this performance so thanks for sharing. Smiley

Great find! Hard to imagine him being that animated and genuinely funny on stage these days. He's always had such a great sense of humor.

Seems that since Carl's death there's been a lack of that "wacky" Brian Wilson that we know and love so much. Maybe not behind closed doors, but in public, even at smaller events like the one in the YouTube video in the first post in this thread, Brian seems subdued, sadder.


Sure, we've got that cigarette lighter bit and "Michael Row The Boat Ashore" stuff from recent years, but we don't have any of that "just took a couple puffs of this mad spliff or drank 4 beers at Club Kokomo and am feeling loosey goosey" Brian Wilson anymore.


But as long as Brian Wilson is happy with his life, he should just keep doing what he's doing. He's at that age where he needs to just to what makes him happiest even if it's not the most healthiest thing for him.

Ooh, NAILS the end of Caroline, No. Great little show, thanks for sharing.

A classic Brianism: "I don't know, what's a songwriter? You mean someone who writes a song?"

On God Only Knows he sounds like Frankie Valli. And I like it.

Did The Four seasons ever do a cover of that song?
