Teilen
Als die Beach Boys am 31. Dezember 1961 im Municipal Auditorium, Long Beach, Kalifornien, auftraten, wurden sie zum ersten Mal bezahlt. Damit ist die drei Songs umfassende Show im Rahmen einer Ritchie-Valens-Erinnerungs-Veranstaltung als das erste offizielle Konzert der Gruppe unter dem Namen Beach Boys in die Rock-Geschichte eingegangen. Mit von der Partie waren an jenem Abend unter anderem Ike & Tina Turner, The Carlos Brothers und The Rivingtons. Dick Dale & The Del-Tones hatten am 23. Dezember im Rendezvous Ballroom, Newport Beach, Kalifornien, die neue Band für einen kurzen Auftritt als Support mit ins Billing gehoben, wo die Beach Boys ihre ersten eigenen Songs einem stilkundigen Publikum darboten. Ebenfalls dabei: The Surfaris und The Challengers. Und am 30. Dezember waren sie vor ein paar Kumpels im Olive Recreation Center, Burbank, Kalifornien zu sehen gewesen.
