Brian Wilson Concert--July 28, 2004

Brian Wilson
Royal Festival Hall, London, England
July 28, 2004

A very long setlist...49 songs! Due to a back injury the previous day, Brian did not play bass on any songs. However, Brian was reportedly in very good spirits. The following observation was posted by Prager & Fenton on the "Male Ego" message board: "Brian was especially enthusiastic about Drive-In and 'sang' the spoken lines with a lot of gusto - notably the line about going broke. 'That's rock'n'roll' he declared at the end of the song. And 'Rock'n'roll will never die'."
