Beach Boys 2021 Feel Flows World Tour Thread

[NOLA BB Fan]

Just got announcement from Ticket master

Friday, October 5  Beau Rivage, Biloxi, MS
 
(The M&B Beach Boys usually play a Saturday show there as well).

Debating whether to go - the last time I saw them I lucked out - Stamos wasn't there.

[Emdeeh]

Just got confirmation on that anticipated Saturday show at Beau Rivage. So it's October 5 and 6.

[Dave in KC]

How many years in a row have they played that place?  And always the first weekend in October. I saw them there in 2003.

They are playing the mountain winery in Saratoga CA in September.  Being from the mid Atlantic area, it is interesting that I may see them at that same venue  for a third time , again in late summer, early fall.  May be my last time to see them.   We are all getting older.  But it is almost always a good show.   always enjoy seeing Scott, cowsill, and Jeffrey.   I don't know how they keep it up.

It struck me seeing this photo in a feed this morning, what someone posted in another discussion: It seems Mike's M.O. of going "lean and mean" with his touring band has changed a bit. I wonder why.

[SMiLE Brian]

Seems they are going the “Chicago” route.... BW, Al, And David would more than do.

OSD July!

[RubberSoul13]

I'll YouTube this lyp-synched shlock tomorrow...better things to do tonight...

[SMiLE Brian]

M&B are getting over the top covering for Mike’s lack of singing ability at this point...

[guitarfool2002]

Mike will be getting some kind of award at this event tonight too.

[SMiLE Brian]

Uh oh, wonder what?

[guitarfool2002]

I'd give Mike a replica of that foot statue Reagan gave James Watt back in '83. But it would need to be at least 20 times larger than Watt's to cover Mike's f-ups. Mark McGrath can unveil it by pulling the hotel bedsheet used in the Do It Again video off the statue during the broadcast.

Wink Martindale to M.C?

Wink Martindale to M.C?

According to an impeccable source, Mike called Wink multiple times to invite him to emcee the event, but each time the person answering the phone at Wink's house told Mike that Wink was "busy washing his hair" and could not take the call. Mike eventually gave up and got Stamos instead.

Jimmy B. Is putting up a bit of the soundcheck on his Instagram. A great pic of Jimmy and Bruce, two guys who 'pray for waves' as the caption says.

Looking forward to watching this tonight. Hoping JB and BB do a tune or two together.  Happy 4th!

Prerecorded tracks or a 100% authentic live performance this time around?

The National Artistic Achievement Award. Can't say I can find much info on it. It's had 4 prior recipients, including Stevie Wonder.

Well it sounded like JB was playing a little guitar, but aren't these things always pre recorded?

Yes, that's what it was, thanks for the clarification. I hope someone explained to Mike that The Beach Boys are getting the award, as in including the Wilsons and Jardine et al, and it's not just going to Mike & Bruce. If he delivers an acceptance speech when Stamos gives him the award, I hope he sees fit to name his original bandmates which he doesn't seem to do as often these days in his promotional press junket interviews.

If they are always prerecorded, it kind of makes a soundcheck unnecessary. Unless the soundcheck is more for camera blocking than actually running through a soundcheck for the musicians.

There was an issue in previous years with some fans (and posters here and elsewhere) suggesting some of these things Mike did were 100% live when they clearly were not. Just curious if this year would be a 100% live show.

If he does, it'll probably be to remind everybody that Brian is his cousin (which he only does when discussing Brian's many accomplishments)

I would not be surprised if that's exactly what happens! It's been Mike's M.O. in recent interviews to either go that route, or not mention the name "Brian" at all. As happened on an 8-minute long interview recently done on UK television.

Billy with the win in round 1! I don't know what this interviewer's credentials are or who he represents, but here are Mike and Bruce yapping away earlier today in DC...

https://youtu.be/4bDORIR2YzA?t=29s

Now were the original 80's July 4th shows in DC Mike's idea? He seems to suggest that in this interview. Legit question...is the credit for those shows really Mike's? Hmm.

The history rewrite in the flesh....
