Brian Wilson/Jeff Beck


The Atlanta paper announced an October appearance from a Fall tour by Brian Wilson and Jeff Beck as headliners. Am I just an old curmudgeon or are those two audiences completely different? I think of the Beach Boys' audience as preppy middle aged women singing "Help Me Rhonda" in three part harmony. The Jeff Beck fan is the introverted male worshiping the altar of the guitar gods. Don't get me wrong- I like them both, but the combination is kind of like mixing scotch and cotton candy.

I think this would be an awesome concert to see. Agree with Onhwy61, Brian Wilson is a god to many musicians not only for his songwriting but for his musical genius for harmony. The guy is in his own world musically but musicians take notice of his original and ingenious talent. Same for Beck on his extraordinary talent as a musician's musician.
