Beach Boys and Bad Company Peforming at N.O. Bowl Concert

[CajunT]

First, beach boys aren't classic rock, a lot of people grow up with classic rock and the beach boys aren't. I said bad company will be cool just thought they could have done better than the beach boys. They are 72-75 years old debuting a new album, it won't be what everyone thinks. That's jmo , and I won't be there for that along with a lot of other people buts it's not a big deal like everyone is making it out to be. Coulda have done better than the beach boys, that's all

Did I mention the Beach Boys? I know the era very well since I grew up in it. I'm sure some of the older crowd will love to hear them, I'm okay with some of their major hits. Bad Company is the draw with Paul Rogers, but you can drink your way through the Beach Boys.

i agree, my original post was that bad company will be good and i thought the beach boys was a reach so i wasnt sure why you would be bringing it up unless you disagreed, maybe we just misunderstood each other

----Well now East coast girls are hip I really dig those styles they wear---and the Southern girls with the way they talk they knock me out when I'm down there --the mid-west farmers daughters really make you feel alright and the Northern girls with the way they kiss they keep their boyfriends warm at night--bamp--- bamp bamp---I wish they all could be California---MIke Love --I am VERY PUMPED---remember them at Blackham and they opened with this I think---Help me Rhonda---I am cranked!!!

Boomer there will be an EMS ambulance on site. Clearly either some fans or members of the band are in extreme danger of heart failure. Where are the Hoveround going to be?

Loved the old guys back in the day, in fact only listen to the Elvis channel, 50's, 60's, country, and 70's on my SiriusXM radio.

Rickey Nelson produced an album titled "Garden Party". The title song of the album was about his experience at the Madison Square Garden concert. During that concert the people only wanted his old stuff and pretty much ignored his new stuff. He was totally bummed out about that.

For years, now I have wondered why people are so happy to see worn out old rock stars doing badly what they did thirty or more years ago. Says more about us than them.

I will be among the Cajun fans because Champion Square will be rocking regardless of the band.

So you can say "I was at their last concert EVER"

I'm kind of surprised more people are excited about Bad Co than The Beach Boys. The Beach Boys were a legendary and respected band in their era. Bad Company was never really more than an average, run of the mill 70's classic rock band.

EDIT: To put it another way Bad Co was like the Nickleback of the 1970's.

I'm excited about the cajun's playing in the NO bowl. Really don't care who's playing the free concert. I don't even really care if Givers plays, that was more a reference to the big "debate" last year about them.......I"m sure they do what they do well.

Damn, I can't wait till Dec 21st.......

I'm sure NBA star and Olympian Kevin Love loves him some Beach Boys.

Good lord.

Whoa...I definitely aint feeling that sh*rt...

[Zeebart21]

See, when I listen to some of that other "new" music, I feel the need to make sure that my fanny pack and shirt match my wifes ensemble..

Bad Company... not so much.

Stop assuming anything, you make an a s s out of yourself, it was just a comment, all I said the beach boys seems like a reach, like the Nola bowl really wanted to have big names and they came up with.... The beach boys. This is a board for discussion isn't it? Just saying, who is more likely to get excited about the concert? 20-30 year olds or 65 year olds? Older people will be there regardless, new Orleans is a Mecca of musicians, just think they could have done better than the beach boys.

If their parents did their jobs, all youngsters know who the Beach Boys are.
