No Ticket Series - I
Early this morning, as my darling Highlander was sleeping in a little, I came up with an idea I thought would be fun. I heard a popular song on a commercial (one of the deadliest of sins in Highlander's world) for Sam's Club and MasterCard. The song was performed by the first band I ever saw in concert. That was in 1978.
Seeing the commercial made me want to go to You Tube and listen to it all the way through (and with the video of the band). When I did, I found it only sparked the aforementioned idea (which is likely not a novel one, just that it had only then occurred to me).
Sooooo, I have put together a You Tube concert, of sorts. The first in the (what is sure to be) sporadic No Ticket Series concerts.
Ladies and Gentlemen,
The Beach Boys...
Beach Boys - Little Deuce Coupe
Beach Boys-Good Vibrations
Beach Boys - California Girls
Beach Boys - Fun Fun Fun
The Beach Boys - Wouldn't It Be Nice
Sloop John B
Beach Boys-In My Room
THE BEACH BOYS - I GET AROUND
The Beach Boys - Surfer Girl
Beach Boys - Don't Worry Baby
The Beach Boys - Help Me, Rhonda
God Only Knows
Time to go home now! Hope you enjoyed the show and if you have artist requests, let me know.

Never heard that song before, Tony. Can't say it's a favorite, but I appreciate you sharing it. And I kinda like that you threw it in as an "encore". Quite fitting!
Of those I posted I probably am partial to "Don't Worry, Baby", "Wouldn't it be Nice", and "Fun, Fun, Fun", more than the others, but also have a pretty fond appreciation of "God Only Knows", too.
This was a fun exercise. I'll definitely be doing it again.
The song was one of the ones that stuck with me from "Smile" (the other being a slightly altered version of "Good Vibrations") You probably already know this story, Tammy, but for those of you just tuning in, "Smile" was originally supposed to be a Beach Boys record released in January 1967. First the Beatles released "Rubber Soul", which inspired Brian Wilson to create "Pet Sounds", which inspired "Sgt. Pepper", and "Smile" was to be the response to that. Unfortunately, the other Beach Boys and Wilson's personal problems shelved the album. Check out the Wikipedia entry for more!
