Watching this and seeing how much fun Brian is having, it's hard to believe he had his first nervous breakdown within 48 hours after this show.

Every time Dennis would shake his hair or Brian hit a high note, the girls went bananas! They were like the Beatles of Southern Cal.

Dennis Wilson = prototype punk rock drummer. So good!

Never mind the Beach Boys. Never was a fan. But who was the singer who started off the clip.

[OL8Twho]

I know who they are. I was born and raised in L.A. I've seen the Beach Boys plenty of times. It was just a comparison, cuz the Beatles shook their heads too and girls would scream.

@OL8Twho Please. They where The Beach Boys like The Beatles was The Beatles.

@Johnk662561 Actually, the Shindig performance was on Dec. 17, 1964. Brian had his breakdown six days later on a flight to Houston. But I agree with your sentiment.

Oh my gosh, Brian smiling so big! I've never seen him that smiley in other videos and pics of him I've seen.
