New Years Eve 2010.\u00a0 The Beach Boys revisited.<\/p>\n<p>The age of doo wop and California cool seemed to come alive again as the nostalgic crowd cheered for the familiar tunes and jumped up for the all time favorites. Beach balls and balloons littered the audience and spent the night crowd surfing among the excited yet moderately calm crowd, ready to bring in the new year, Beach Boys style.<\/p>\n<p>The Boys reverted to favorites such as \u201cBe True to Your School,\u201d (1963) \u201c409,\u201d (1962) \u201cWhy Do Fools Fall in Love\u201d (1964) and \u201cSo Young\u201d (1965) an original song by the Students recorded in 1960 which apparently was one of the songs that initially spurred the band\u2019s interest in making music.<\/p>\n<p>The relatively older crowd and the somewhat lack of motion on stage did not facilitate the most dynamic atmosphere, yet the band, singer Mike Love and part time drummer John \u201cJohnny\u201d Stamos, adequately compensated with animated band\/audience interaction. \u00a0Potent drum rolls, some intermittent jokes, and helpful song history before most numbers made for a well-rounded show even a 20 year old could enjoy.<\/p>\n<p>Reviewed by: Alex Roland<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><strong>The Beach Boys with special guest John Stamos<\/strong><br \/>\n12\/31\/2010<br \/>\nEvent Rating: \u2605\u2605\u2605\u2605\u2606<br \/>\nVenue: Hard Rock Live (Hollywood, FL)<br \/>\nPresented by: Hard Rock Live (Seminole Hard Rock Hotel &amp; Casino)<\/p>\n<p>Everyone has heard of the Beach Boys.
