vtbrink | MEMORY FROM 1998

While in College

LOCATION: Madison, WI , San Francisco

YEAR: 1998

TAGS: Dad

PUBLISHED: May 4, 2008

I used to think the Beach Boys were all bubblegum.  Man, was I ever wrong! 

My Dad would play their music when I was a child.  Their music seemed likeable enough though I never truly understood WHY he liked them so much.

Then I read a few Beach Boys' biographies and became fascinated by their story and music.  And THEN I really listened to their music and 'got it.'  Over the past 10 years I've seen Brian Wilson in concert 3 times.

In eighteen days I will walk down the aisle to 'God Only Knows.'  I adore this song.
