A highlight of Goodbye Surfing, Hello God! is this complete unheard November 1967 concert at a Washington D.C. venue. While the Boys are more than a little loose, both instrumentally and vocally (they're certainly not, as the announcer says at the end of the show, "one of the most fabulous recording and performing groups in the world" on this evening!), it's still a treat to be able to hear songs like "Wild Honey" and "Darlin'" just as they were being issued for public consumption.
Apparently, on of the Boys' problems on this night revolved around a set of rules dictated to them prior to the show by the Daughters of the American Revolution, which restricted what they could say onstage. Thus, their somewhat sarcastic, foul moods are on display throughout. In particular, Mike is in rare form tonight, with much insufferable banter being thankfully cut off by Carl (who remarks to the crowd, "You're very tolerant" at the end of "I Get Around"). Mike also neglects to check his song list, setting up his troubled there in for "Wild Honey" when it's time to play "California Girls".
24. Harmony Friends (2:52)
Recorded: early 1968
An unused bit of beautiful wordless harmony that was to have been utilized on the Friends LP, but was consigned to the vault instead.
