Free Beach Boys Concert



Have to give all sorts of credit to those who came up with the idea of providing free admission to the Waukesha County Fair, if you entered into the Car Show on the grounds.  The Car Show yielded at least 100 cars, including the beautiful '57 Pontiac Star Chief above.  Better yet, that admission allowed you to see the Beach Boys for free!  While Mike Love appeared to be lip syncing, it didn't seem to matter to the crowd as he and the younger band went through the set list (actual list above) of great tunes.  Really a wonderful time, and the price was right!
