Moody Gardens Amphitheater
Galveston, Texas - Experience a legendary night of music under the stars at the Moody Gardens Amphitheater. Moody Gardens and Island Star Performances are proud to present The Beach Boys live in concert Saturday November 1, 2008.
Led by legendary front man Mike Love, The Beach Boys haven’t taken a summer off in 40 years, playing more shows than any other major rock act. The boys of summer continue to rock the world with performances that showcase the same bold imagination and style that marked their explosive debut. Through their music, The Beach Boys truly have found the key to unfading youth, which they share with concert goers across the country.
Widely considered one of America’s most important Rock and Roll bands, The Beach Boys have scored a long list of hit singles and sold more than 100 million albums. However, perhaps their greater significance lies in the fact that they changed the musical landscape so profoundly that their musical influence remains prominently evident in the pop/rock acts of today.
Opening for the Beach Boys are special guests and local favorites The Coastliners. Hailing from Baytown and known for their tight five part harmonies, The Coastliners have thrilled audiences from coast to coast, sharing the stage with musical legends such as Roy Orbison, The Righteous Brothers, Neil Diamond and The Byrds, just to name a few.
