|
1
| Part of the Inaugural celebrations for new president Ronald Regan. |
|
2
| Carl's last show with the band until May 1982. |
|
3
| Broadcast live on WNEW-FM |
|
4
| Show followed a Surfs Soccer game. |
|
5
| Broadcast live on Q107-FM. Not one of their better shows. |
|
6
|
Televised live nationally, this is very possibly the worst show The Beach Boys have ever played: they weren't just bad, they were shocking. Carl, watching from his hotel room on tour, simply said "it was painful". |
|
7
|
During this show, Brian threw a tantrum, punched his mike and stormed offstage: reportedly Mike & Dennis had a backstage fistfight as well. |
|
8
| David Marks sat in on this Mike Love/Endless Summer Beach Band gig. |
|
9
| Mike Love & The Endless Summer Beach Band. |
|
10
| Special show for the University of Miami. |
|
11
|
At this gig three sheriff's deputies were manhandled by security for taking photos: they later sued the group and were awarded 5 million in December 1985. |
|
12
| Although touring, Dennis didn't play this show as he had food poisoning. |
|
13
|
The shows took place over the Christmas/New Year period: exact dates unknown. Brian & Dennis made the trip, but not Carl, of course. |
