I'd pay good money to see that, although I'd probably leave before the encore of "Mt. Vernon and Fairway - a Fairy Tale."

Ten years ago that sentence never would've been written outside of a Fan Fair message board.

I'm not going to defend "Sloop John B" (one of my least favorite Beach Boys singles and by-a-wide-margin the worst song on Pet Sounds), but the Beach Boys covered so much ground in their first fifteen years that just concentrating on their surf phase (roughly 1961-1963, with a bit of a comeback in 1965) seems like a…
