Stadium of Fire 2012

Steph and Mickel invited me to go with them to the Stadium of Fire on the Fourth of July, which this year featured the Beach Boys.  The last time either Steph or I went to the SOF was in 1992, which interestingly enough also featured the Beach Boys and was the last time that they played here in Utah.  Coincidentally, Mickel also attended that 1992 show. 




The fighter jet flyover - I'm amazed I even got a picture of it!
It was a fantastic show, and the Beach Boys were fabulous!  They have been playing together for 50 years (though they don't have all the original members of course)!  It's pretty hard to find anyone who's done the same job for 50 years, let alone in show business.  Kaiya and Teague waited patiently for them to do "Kokomo" (that's their cruise song), but we all belted out all the songs.  So fun to sing along!  At one point, Kaiya turned to me and said, "Grammie, why do they call them the "Beach Boys"?  They aren't boys!"  They may no longer be boys, but they're still awesome.
