x
1
As before, it's highly unlikely that so many song were recorded at one session: this could
be the date that the masters were logged at Capitol.
2
Very possibly the session at which Murry was fired as manager.
3
At this show Dennis was hit by something thrown by a fan and had to leave the stage. He
missed a few shows, Dick Peterson of the Kingsmen filling in on drums.
4
The show resulted in a riot and was stopped by the police after 14 minutes.
5
En route to Houston, Brian breaks down on the plane: he plays the show but flies home
the next day.
6
Glen Campbell replaces Brian.
