x
**
  These shows were recorded for the In Concert album.
1
  This song is not, as is often claimed, an early version of "Funky Pretty". However,
  having started out sounding like "Loop De Loop", it contains a riff Brian reused over
  20 years later for "Chain Reaction Of Love".
2
  The first show with Blondie & Ricky as 'official' members: also the first show for
  Toni Tennille.
3
  Dennis missed this show as one of his children was taken ill. It's likely he missed the
  next three shows as well.
4
  Bruce's last 'official' Beach Boys show until August 1978
5
  Alan returns to his almer mater.
6
  Broadcast on June 28th by NBC TV as "Good Vibrations from London", with four
  songs from the BB. Elton John guested on the encore.
7
  Contrary to the long-held belief, relatively little of the Holland album was actually
  recorded there - just the basic tracks. The barn of legend was in fact a tiny
  commercial studio used for recording adverts and Christmas albums - despite the
  name it has no connection with the British TV channel.
8
  Considering the band played in the US the following day, the date for this session 
  may appear very questionable, but in fact Dutch fans who spoke with the band on
  this day confirm that it is correct: it was a very early morning session and the band
  flew out to Chicago at 1.00pm.
9
  Carl, Mike, Alan & Billy Hinsche contributed bvs to this track which was released on
  the Waves album in October.
10
  Although these session dates are clearly incompatible with the established concert
  dates, this is what the AFM sheets say, and they are included for reference: the best
  guess is that someone is misremembering by a month or so as most of the AFM
  sheets for the Holland sessions are backdated, having been filed after the band
  returned to the USA.
11
  Cancelled because the promoters did a runner with the takings before the show.
12
  This is not the same as Brian's "Hard Times", aka the 'dirty' version of "Ding Dang".
13
  "Marcella", "Let The Wind Blow", "Wouldn't It Be Nice", "Don't Worry, Baby" &
  "Good Vibrations" from this show were included on In Concert.
