A nice close-up and vocal from Christian Love:

Sometimes he really looks like his dad.
It's hard to believe--though it shouldn't be!--that Christian Love is now in his mid 50s. The first children of the original Beach Boys are far older than anyone ever though performing rock and roll musicians would be, and meanwhile their parents are still at it! He does have a great voice. I think sometimes the comparisons to Carl are a bit overblown: it's more "shades of Carl" than "dead ringer for Carl" in my opinion. But it's in that vein, and he's a very good singer.
I always wonder how good a guitarist he is. He seems not to play much, honestly. Here is a video from 2011: note that his left hand seems to just sit on a D minor chord (a chord that I don't think appears in the song, by the way), and he doesn't strum. He occasionally moves his hand a little as if getting a new grip on the chord, but doesn't seem to play anything.

The other day I was researching something about Wilson Phillips, and I saw that Carnie Wilson is now 54, Wendy is 53, and Chynna Phillips is 55. It seems like yesterday that the young Wilson Phillips were barely 20 years old and singing "Hold On" in 1990 - and Brian Wilson was 48.

Great setlist, great band, great vocals (especially Carl). Check it out:

I know it's cheesy but I like it! Brian's vocal is very enthusiastic and Mike was still singing very well. This is obviously a Brian Wilson production; Bruce hadn't gotten to it. I'd take this over "Shortenin' Bread" on L.A. (Light Album) any day. Bow-bow bow bow, bow-bow bow bow indeed.

The other night I found myself watching this show from the infamous Australian tour of 1978. Far from peak performances, with Carl more than a little "loose." I found myself absorbed in watching Brian when he'd sit on an amp or some other staging, out of the spotlight, chugging along on a bass.
