Beatles and Beach Boys were huge rivals in the 60s. When Pet Sounds was released

the Beatles basically said, “we need to up our game musically,” and that was the impetus for Sgt. Pepper

The worst song on there is "I'm A Dog and I'm About to Puke"

Mrs. Parm has seen BNL several times, but this is the first time without Steve. I thought it was a good show, but I could definitely see the times where his voice was missing.

You still hear people carping about Steve…

And they seem to put most of the blame on the rest of the band. I don’t get it. Steve always had a big personality that I could see as being hard to take (he was bipolar and self-medicating), and even he admitted there were creative differences before he left. But then, in the midst of promoting a children’s album (which he said he didn’t want to do), he gets busted for cocaine possession. I don’t see how that doesn’t squarely fall on him.

Yeah Kevin and Jim are not very strong singers.

The Brian Wilson joke was funny.

Talking about the last time they saw him, and he asked “are you still singing that song about me?” And someone, I think it was Tyler chimed in “One Week isn’t about you, Brian.”

Yep. Fastball and Guster were good. But BNL is just so much more enjoyable to watch

it was my first time seeing them. really entertaining.

i was surprised how old the crowd skewed. I'm no spring chicken, but I felt like there were a lot of people in their 60s and 70s there.
