The Beach Boys: Universal Amphitheatre, Los Angeles
Sylvie Simmons, Sounds, 7 July 1979
POTTED PALM trees, fishing nets, dry ice aka sea mist, the Captain (sans Tenille) and a backing band in a boat. Degenerate drummer in Brian-sized workclothes (Fleetwood Mac t-shirts and jeans), transendental singer in good-guy cowboy hat and Hawaiian shirt, prancing around in front of the yacht like it's the Good Ship Lollipop.
