Brian Wilson

Just got in from my gig of the year... Brian Wilson performing Pet Sounds in it's entirety. Performed to celebrate the album's 40th anniversary. The gig included a surprise hour long set of him performing some of his greatest hits, before a short break and then the Pet Sounds performance. The encore included a 15 minute set of Beach Boys classics (Help Me Rhonda, Surfin' USA, I Get Around etc) and some classic 50's/60's rock n' roll. It was a glorious night and one that'll live in the memory for some time to come. I make no apologies about filming Help Me Rhonda as the video clip either!! ;-) All music fans should see him live - a true legend.

Good work mate! I've always wanted to see him, but the tix are so damn expensive, although I guess that's no excuse for not seeing a legend!?

Maybe I'll force myself to see him next time he tours....if there's a next time!

Glad you enjoyed it!

Swamprose, did you go to the gig? I'm a huuuuuuuge Brian Wilson fan... but those 60's replica "action" figures are just too scary. Also, since when was Brian Wilson ever remotely connected to the word "action"? lol.

Rich, I live in Toronto. I would have given anything to go. Your little video tastes were wonderful. I know what it is like when you are at a concert and the stars are all aligned, and it is just great. so I truly appreciate you taking the time out to make those videos. He had the great backup group. Eatin my heart out. Glad you were there, and sent me out a bit of it.
