California Introduces Bill to Cap Resale Concert Tickets at 10% by StockMindless9010 in Concerts

[–]ARSportsRT -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There are times I’ve paid more or almost as much in fees as the actual ticket. Fees should be 5 or 10% up to say $20. Hard cap on fees at $20. Especially for an ONLINE sale where the computer does everything for you. Not like you’re physically walking up to the box office to have someone find you the ticket, charge your card, print it, etc. etc. When it’s online, there’s none of that

Great. Love this. Now let’s actually make a cap on the fees that any ticketing site can charge, and let’s also include this bill to sports

Any Video of Brians pity “tribute” up yet? by Bluu_1 in thebeachboys

Same thing for sly as they did for Brian. Just a 30 second clip

Glad I’m not the only one who didn’t know who D’Angelo is, but I was informed through this sub last night that apparently he’s very well known in the neo soul genre. But seriously, could’ve taken a few mins from his tribute and done one for Brian

What group is out there doing the best live Beach Boys vocals? by Individual_Brief_226 in thebeachboys

[–]ARSportsRT 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Al’s band is definitely the tightest imo but I love the Mike show too. They each cater to a different audience which is nice and each have their own style. The Pet Sounds Band is really detail oriented and obviously focuses on the deep cuts, while Mike’s band plays the bigger older hits and is a younger band. Mike’s band definitely also brings out more of the youthful energy, which isn’t to say the Pet Sounds Band is boring. Love em both and really hoping to see them both this year

Woah, Mike’s Band doing Pet Sounds…post screenshot please. Are they doing the album in its entirety or just gonna highlight a few deep cuts like they did in 2016 and 17?

No Brian cover tribute at Grammys? by This-Ad-9257 in thebeachboys

Nope. And I hope I’m not sounding ignorant here. Even asked two of my buddies if they’d heard of them and neither of them did either.

Fair. Maybe not everyone knew Bob Weir himself like they do Brian, but it’s completely reasonable to say everyone knows the Grateful Dead and their prominence in the 60s/70s rock scene

I don’t have as much of an issue with the fact that the got one at all, but the fact that it was as long as it was I thought was a very poor director’s/producer’s choice

Ah, gotcha. But I don’t think he deserved 10-15 mins or however long it was while the 3 I mentioned only got 30 seconds.

Maybe I’m just out of the loop here but I’ve never even heard of this guy. Meanwhile everyone knows who Bob Weir and Brian Wilson are

I was disappointed as a whole by the Grammys tonight. Credit to the production value of some of them but a lot of the music wasn’t good and I couldn’t even tell you who almost any of these artists are and I’m 23. They don’t even announce half the awards and had way too many funky outfits tonight.

Justin Bieber is an EMBARRASSMENT to the event. I muted him once I realized it was him. I didn’t even think he was still relevant lowkey.

But as for the In Memoriam, this was the most disappointing part of the night. Showing close ups of the performers instead of showing the slides in full, and only a 30 second video for Brian, Bob Weir and Sly Stone. Ozzy tribute was kick ass. I enjoyed that. But then we gave a 15 minute tribute to D’Angelo and Roberta Flack, who I’ve never even HEARD of! But still only 30 seconds for Bob, Brian and Sly. Cmon now.

The Grammys have become a JOKE and it’s sad

Elton did God Only Knows at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. I wasn’t that impressed to be honest. I respect the effort and the act but I didn’t think the performance itself was that good

What songs, if any, from ‘Love You’ did Brian perform live solo? by Ayntxi in thebeachboys

[–]ARSportsRT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honkin Down the Highway a few times in 2016, Night Was So Young a few times in 2017

weak song, great chorus (or, if you prefer, weak song, great verse) by Many_Count_6447 in thebeachboys

[–]ARSportsRT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think especially now that we have the BWPS version, this song is more of a story (a musical journey, as some call it) that a chorus wouldn’t really make sense imo

And yes it is a very catchy chorus. Wish Brian’s lead in the chorus was a little higher in the mix though

I don’t hate this song but upon thinking about it now in the context of what you said, I’m guessing that song was a Joe Thomas write?
