Brian's whereabouts during the 1973 In Concert show

Reagarding the show for the 1973 In Concert album.
I knew Dennis was present with injured hand and minimal instrumental/vocal duties. Is it also correct that Brain and Marilyn were present at the recording of this live album? Did he sing anywhere on it? If so, why not(other than the obvious reason)?
This show is one of my favorites and it just sounds grand on vinyl!
Any details/history surrounding this topic would be appreciated:
Was BW mentioned at the show?
Did he make a stage appearance?
His last gig with them before/next gig after?
Inner band arguments?
How was Dennis' hand was injured?
etc.....

In Concert was recorded over numerous different shows, none of which featured Brian, who at the time was
really
beginning to hit rock bottom.

Well...Brian did make a cameo appearance at the Hollywood Palladium show on April 20 1973 as is discussed on another thread on this board. The album cover photos apparently come from this show, but most of the album was recorded at later 1973 shows-check the Through the Opera Glass site for the details or of course the Bellagio site (where you can see Concert/Session Info compiled by yours truly and the great AGD)

They really should have put the Barbara Ann with him singing on the LP. It would have been a major selling point as his voice was still good. He last appereared in 12-71 to play Day In The Life Of A Tree, he next showed up in July 1976 and by then his vocie was in bad shape. I don't think inner band arguments played any role in the LP. Dennis hurt himself when he was drunk slammed a glass door and put his hand through it.

I wonder if Alan Boyd could tell us if any of Brian's 1970 BBs shows were taped by the band-perhaps Desper recorded one of the Whiskey shows? Is the Seattle Feb 28 1970 show's existence from a tape made by a fan?-or is it a boot of a tape in the vaults?

A Day in the Life of a Tree ...live?
That would have been a fascinating concert experience...I really like this song and personally find the tag to match or even beat that of Til I Die in terms of absolute poignancy...very moving indeed.
Cheers

Too bad Jack Reily forgot the words halfway through the song on stage, prompting the audience to virtually feed him his lines.

Yeah, but listen to it again.. when Jack hesitates on the second 'oh lord I lay me down' line, you can faintly hear Brian himself sing it in all its glory. amazing moment.

I would kill to hear "A Day In The Life of a Tree" live...especially in 1971 with Brian. Come to think of it, I would love for Brian to play it live now (highly doubtful though).

Agree on all points. Imagine the crowd in 1971, not everyone having heard the Surf's Up album...suddenly, without warning or intro, Jack Rieley's voice and a majestic organ: "Feeeeeeeel...the wind". What an experience!

Imagine the mass exodus to the concession stands and restrooms ...
Even in 1971, audiences weren't
that
patient.

It really would suit Brians voice now to hear him sing this wonderful piece. Frankly its in my top 10 favorites of Brian's whole career/

Having been at that 12-3-71 concert (in fact, unless there is more than one version of the concert audio floating around, I was the one who made that muddy overmodulated cassette recording) I can attest to the fact that there was no exodus to the concession stands and restrooms. Brain Wilson was on stage playing the organ while Jack was singing "Tree", and the audience definitely seemed to be into the experience.

The audience was into the experience??
I saw a show in Saint Louis that tour and most of the audience was tripping and or stoned out of their head. This of course made "getting into" the show that much easier, no matter what they were playing.

Hate to bump an old thread, but did Brian sing the whole Barbara Ann song with the Falsetto?

And production aside, I’d so much rather hear a 14 year old David Marks shred some guitar on Chug-a-lug than hear a 51 year old Mike Love sing about bangin some chick in a swimming pool.-rab2591

I can't listen to it "again", I haven't listened to it ever, as I don't have it! Is it on YouTube? Probably not...

Somebody on here posted on the show and he even took a pic of Brian, but some dude stood up and blocked it. A shame as I only know of one photo from 1973. In any case from what I understood that's the song he sang on, but I have no idea if he sang lead. The 1970 show that exists has him singing it.
