More Shows and Dance Bands pg 5

It all began in Hawthorne California, at Hawthorne High School while most of the Beach Boys were Hawthorne High School Cougars. Brian and Al played on the football team together. Dennis and Carl were Brian's little brothers that sang with big brother Brian since they were very small. Cousin Mike Love went to nearby Dorsey High. What began as a weekend while the folks were away, changed and shaped the world of musical history forever.
As the "British Invasion" hit the shores of the USA in 1964, the "Surf Sound" was being defined and then dominated by this talented quintet of musicians from the South Bay area in Los Angeles, CA.
Their songs talked of fast cars, the girl next door, having fun and the forever search for the "perfect wave. This catapulted Brian, Mike, Carl, Dennis and Al into international stardom. Their music is recognized throughout the world. Much like The Beatles and The Rolling Stones, they have millions of devoted fans and new listeners of all ages that are discovering their music every day!
The idea was to recreate and authenticate the look and sound of a live concert, circa 1964-65, by Brian Wilson, Mike Love, Carl Wilson, Dennis Wilson and Al Jardine. That was the spark that ignited the flame.
The Beach Toys have recreated the sight, sound and mannerisms of this most recognizable band. From the striped shirts and Sansabelt slacks, to the suede "Beatle Boots" and wavy hair, right down to the definitive harmonies and groundbreaking lyrics about life in California. They play the same instruments and even wear the same aftershave.
This is all lovingly recreated for devoted fans and future generations alike to enjoy.
On behalf of The Beach Toys......Surf's up!
