Look at Dennis walking over to his brothers at 23:08 and putting his arms around them, how precious. My fucking god man, pains me to know he'd be gone in less than six months. One of the last good moments we see Dennis with the group
Never knew this was recorded. A great upload for us Beach Boys fans!
I've never seen Brian so anxious to get a song started! LOL. I thought he was about to pull a switchblade on the other guys if they didn't hurry up with "Rock and Roll Music".
BlueEyes 1970 😆😆😆
Hahaha absolutely screaming at them
even Reagan is like "alright, man, take it easy."
generally they treat Reagan like some sorta high school principal, really handsy with Ron and Nancy.

@@msoileau83 Yes that’s right.
Dennis looks so rough here. He was a man living on borrowed time by this point. So tragic!
The fact Dennis is gone in 5 months sucks
CARL DEAN WILSON! 💗 💕 ❤️
mmm Carl really blossomed.
Whoa! Brian is pissed. The drama starts at 22:34 . Brian seems increasingly upset that the president and Nancy are focusing all of the attention to Mike and ignoring him and Carl on the other side. Dennis eventually comes over and puts his arms around Carl and Brian in solidarity to calm Brian down. When they start leaving the stage it looks like Dennis is talking to the president to explain that there's been a misunderstanding. Then Mike and Bruce seem to also tell the president there's a problem. The president makes a nervous joke and calls everyone back to perform more songs. You can hear Brian screaming at 24:27 "I want to do another one." He's not playing. He's mad for real. LOLLL.
Dr. Landy must have skipped giving Brian his meds that day. Brian was acting a bit...manic.
@@BlueEyes-gp8lg or perhaps he gave Brian a bit too much...
I don’t think it’s that. Brian was standing on the opposite side where Reagan was giving his attention and Carl stood with Brian to hang with him - supportive and measured as always. Dennis is higher than Georgia Pine and bouncing around telling Reagan they’re up for playing another tune. Meanwhile, Love is all over Nancy…geez!
Always loved Dennis, but his manic, stop/start drum bashing style is always cringeworthy.
@@steveparker5406 So why did Reagan make the nervous joke?
@@steveparker5406 And why is Brian screaming angrily?
Brian must be home writing a new album.
No, he’s actually there, the far right on piano
I miss Dennis ✨
I was 16 years old at the time and I attended their concert that day at RFK Stadium before their performance there at the White House later that day. This was a great moment in this bands history that once again re-launch their career back into the national spotlight with the James Watt Beach Boy controversy. Sadly, six months later Dennis would be dead. God bless The Beach Boys and and our new Greatest president ever President Trump 💪🇺🇸MAGA
mike love you’re cringe
5:53 - she goes pee pee to our blossomed world?
Mexp Whepwenx it actually goes she goes with me to a blossom world 5:53
Pretty sure he said "She goes pee pee to our blossom world"
@@DrProctorDoesCoke Maybe Carl was so bored singing "Good Vibrations" by this point that he just wanted to mess with it. I actually like the new lyric.
@@BlueEyes-gp8lg Seems like Mike was surprised as well.
Carl - always so unobtrusive. Never looks for the limelight. Just protecting his bro’s as much as possible.
Bruce's fake, over-exaggerated "laughter" when Reagan begins to speak...come on, man. The man is talented but is an even bigger cornball than Mike.
Yes, no wonder they're still together after all of this years.

Ryan Thomas Amend this to add Brian’s jacked up amped lustful carnal NEED for Rock and Roll Music! Legendary! 🤣🤣❤️❤️❤️
You can see the love that Dennis had in his heart . It truly shows. He is so loved and missed. 🙏♥️
They sound so much better with Brian. Don't get me wrong I love them all so much. But Brian just adds so much
I don't mean to objectify him, but Carl is a stone cold fox in this video. Certainly part of that is his astonishing consistency of character and kindness. But seriously, also stone cold fox.
CARL DEAN WILSON. #1, FOREVER. Class act.
Agreed! 😎
RIP Dennis and Carl. Not forgotten.
Dennis was a strong drummer, even at this stage, very tight playing, v good.
Brian + Carl + Dennis + Mike + Al + Bruce = Perfect!
For sure
Yo cameraman... theres more to the band than Mike Love
he cannot sing..this is horrendou
@@Tigerrfeet AWFUL THEY SING BAD
@@ELVENGADOR858 just mike love sings badly
As usual, Carl's the only one appropriately-dressed.
Dennis was appropriately dressed...to go to the nearest bar.
Shorts don't suit Al because he's too...........short.
Boy was this raw footage, no sound check, no lip sync, no recorded backing tracks or backing vocals , mixing was way off .....not a polished show...it sure shows you what a different there can be...
wow this is unique one of the last if not the last filmed performance with drummer Dennis Wilson......... thanks
Arno Albers yes. This is June and Denny dies a week after Carl’s birthday, the 28th of December, 1983. Denny never saw 40. Tragic.
Yep. Tragically, Denny would leave us six months later. I liked how he was still up on the stage with President Reagan after everyone else left. Hangin' with the big dogs......that was Denny! RIP Dennis and Carl.
God, I would love to know the exact specifics behind the scenes of this performance. Everything from Carl sticking incredibly close to Brian whenever Reagan goes up (clearly trying to make sure nothing goes wrong), Brian being incredibly agitated before Rock n Roll Music, Mike holding the First Lady’s hand for waaaay too long, and Dennis looking like shit. Early 80s Beach Boys were so fucking chaotic
Also does Carl say “Quiet Brian!” at 25:13 or am I crazy??
Yeah you’re right, Brian is screaming at them
@Angel You're not crazy. Brian was wacked out of his mind and was angry their performance was going to be cut because they started late. I'm going to copy and paste my previous comment, rather than re-type it... The drama starts at 22:34 . Brian seems increasingly upset that the president and Nancy are focusing all of the attention to Mike and ignoring him and Carl on the other side. Dennis eventually comes over and puts his arms around Carl and Brian in solidarity to calm Brian down. When they start leaving the stage it looks like Dennis is talking to the president to explain that there's been a misunderstanding. Then Mike and Bruce seem to also tell the president there's a problem. The president makes a nervous joke and calls everyone back to perform more songs. You can hear Brian screaming at 24:27 "I want to do another one." He's not playing. He's mad for real.
It was landy's pills that whacked him out.@@videocat1366
Rest easy Dennis..
kind words my friend. I have a film coming out about dennis Wilson. there is a clip on youtube called alan d cumming thoughts of you. please enjoy.
Six months before Dennis passed. RIP. Love is flat on “California Girls.”
As usual, mykluv’s microphone is WAY too loud. Denny looks like hell. I just want to hug him
my glove
Al and Bruce in shorts. Absolute legends.
must be one of the last times Dennis Wilson appeared. He passed away in 1983,
I think his last appearance with the band was in September, then he was gone in December 😩
The sound technician was drunk, for sure...
Mike Love is wearing the same Nike shoes Marty McFly wore in Back to the Future Part 1
That's Christopher Reeve shaking Regan's hand at 32:41.
The Beach Boys *La más Grande banda americana de todos los tiempos* 🇺🇸❤️
“You got it, buddy!”
My favorite part! Other than Dennis and those crazy Dennis fills throughout the whole set.
ChriTur yeah he wasn’t really a drummer
@@tommytwomommy yeah, he was.
@@tommytwomommy he was an awesome drummer
Carl was trying to get Brian to chill a bit. Brian was losing it over them not starting "Rock And Roll Music" fast enough.
Ya think Nancy's telling Dennis 'just say no'? Dennis is like 'screw that lets go score'! Even though I hated that whole phony war on drugs BS, it would have been nice if Dennis had said 'no'.
Okay, there's Brian...stage right.
Dennis Wilson was going to shake Ronald Regans hand then Mike pulls Dennis Wilson why
Mike and Denny's relationship was strained to the max at this point. He seemed to be embarrassed by Denny's disheveled appearance/behavior that day, so he tried pulling him back to keep him out of view as best as he could. Dennis drank heavily the day of their white house apperance and just looking at him you can tell he was in trouble. RIP DENNIS CARL WILSON.
@@DSherry68 Yep, his drumming is 'strained'. Pity Steady Eddie the bass player trying to lock in with him.
i must have missed that, he shook his hand on about 5 different occasions during the footage.
Jay Potter because myke must monopolize EVERYTHING AND EVERYONE. Narcissistic asshole
Just remember that this was about 6 months before Dennis died . Enough said .
Mike Love has moved on Fun Fun Fun! Of course, Dennis kills it on drums. 😎
I’d love to know what the heck Dennis told President Reagan at 23:40
Lmao what could Dennis be possibly saying to him hahahahah
He seems to be asking for a photo with him if "well if you're not busy," dennis voice sounds pretty bad there, poor guy
Rest In Peace Dennis Wilson, Carl Wilson, Billy Hinsche, and Jeffrey Foskett, you all are missed.
Mike Love couldn’t carry a tune in a basket.
Where is Jeff F hiding while doing the lead on WOTS?
Behind the amps, to your left (stage right).
The camera man sucks. Should have got Jeff doing the lead. He sounded great.
Rock on Dennis, Carl, and Billy. We miss you!
This is awsome show and I wish this was an official release
a dark chapter for The Beach Boys
Al and Bruce , why dressed like that, o m g, lol.
This reminds me of a joke.. How much power does it take to turn off an environmentalist? One (James) WATT!
Bruce doubling Jeff Foskett on the first verse of Warmth Of The Sun, and harmonizing with him.
SUPERMAN Christopher Reeve shaking hands @ 32:42.Cool
That Mike.........ahhh I really don't know sounds really really b..
Dennis was really sweating!!!
Call me crazy, but who sang lead on “The Warmth of the Sun” ? Cannot tell. TIA 🎹🎶🎸👍
1:34 CALIFORNIA GIRLS
4:41 GOOD VIBRATIONS
11:28 THE WARMTH OF THE SUN
15:05 SURFIN SAFARI
@@spacepatrolman LMAOOOOOOOOO there's a "Translate to English" button on your comment and pressing it changes your comment to SURFING SAFARI!
Who's singing lead on Warmth of the Sun at 11:40???
Jeff Foskett
Was expecting Regan to get up and go Littlw Duece Coupe..
This is fascinating. Great post! Thank you!! Brian and Dennis fired up. Love Carls frustration with Brian lol
What the hell is Mike Love doing. He sounds awful.
Love it first time seeing it
Are you going to upload this to the Reagan archives web page? thanks
Thanks for the comment. We have no plans to do this on Reaganlibrary.gov since our UA-cam Channel serves as a platform for viewing our videotape collection.
Please upload this to the Archives web page :)
Mike at 4:29 "I wrote the words..." Okay, Mike. You wrote the words. We get it already. It really steams him that Brian gets so much credit.
Been watching and listening to The Beach Boys for a long time and this is the first time I've seen them perform "Surf City".
Original done by Jan and Dean
Short shorts n a satin jacket. Might be a song there
Wilson brothers in here!
great America again!
Where's James Watt ? :D
Carl and Dennis both looking fab there
? Dennis looks like he did often in his last couple of years...like a homeless man. Almost surprised that the Secret Service didn't get involved the way he was accosting Reagan on stage.
@@BlueEyes-gp8lg He looks like a typical alcoholic, you usually see hanging around the grocery store asking for a dime. Very sad scene, especially considering how fabulous he looked only 4-5 years ago. He was on top. A real rockstar.
Is that Jeff Foskett on Warmth leads? It's like his mic is lower than everyone else.
Play another one?!?!
Rock’n’Roll Music!!!
@ 24:20
That’s the man, Brian!
Can you turn it up?
Try it.
Love seeing the fun Carl and Billy had working side by side!
where's Bruce?
nuttywolfie you can’t see him for the most part but hes on the left playing keyboard . He’s wearing white shirt with blue shirts
Who cares?
Nice Mike. Did you get your clothes at K-Mart? You stay classy.
Brian is a genius/Mike is a charlatan etc but to give $hit to 1983 Mike Love for his dress sense if weak as f*ck...
Son of Liberty he’s such a butt munch
The acoustics here are kinda rough..................
Mikes lead vocal is like fingernails down a blackboard
Whos singing falsetto?
Azzam Hizburrahman Jeffrey Foskett and he is the best at it
@@greatcitysportaction2289 yah he was soo good
Azzam Hizburrahman yeah he’s better than Adrian Baker
2:05 mike whispers to Al, get Dennis right off stage = Myk is a huge kiss-ass and monopolizer, as Jay Potter points out, but it is sadly apparent that Denny isn’t doing well, here. Heart- breaking.
You are one heck of a lip reader.
and al smiles and laughs as a reaction to that? no chance.
21:30 did Brian say "we're all very clean"
He must have forgot that Dennis was there.
Great To See This Gig Was Filmed.......I Don't Think Brian And Dennis Would Have Believed They Were There Without Documented Evidence........Loved The Reagan's,Especially The Gipper,He Was Cool,Reagan Was Always My Favourite President,2nd Favourite Now.......Make America Great Again,Again!!
Your love for corrupt presidents is undying.
@@DaveGiordanoNYC thanks dude,i've been lucky picking winners.
@@DaveGiordanoNYC it kinda died last year, we currently have the worst president ever, just a fact
Hate Mike love. Haaaaaate him so much
Who the H does Mike Love think he is? Try not to dislike anyone but I can't stand that guy! He is not the Beach Boys the Wilson Bros are
I hate to even mention this notion, but I have to wonder if Dr Landy could have helped Dennis at this horrible time of his life. In my estimation, Landy was definitely a shady character, but he did bring Brian back to a reasonable level of health. Maybe his off the wall and controversial therapy could have helped Dennis?
The band reportedly intended to have Dennis be treated by Landy but he died before it happened. Even then, I seriously don’t think he would’ve stayed for it. Dennis was a very free spirit whereas Brian was/is very much a people pleaser. You yell at him and he’ll roll over and accept it whereas Dennis wouldn’t take shit from anybody. I seriously believe if Landy pulled anything funny, Dennis would’ve thrown hands over it whereas Brian at the stage was a very delicate and fragile person. It’s sad to say but I think the only person who could help Dennis was himself, but he refused to do that
@@officialFredDurstfanclubyep. Unfortunately he was at the only person is yourself state. As was Brian psychologically. I feel Dennis had more of the addict heavy rage where Brian had more of the psychotic rage that drugs just fueled but didn’t kill.
Reagan looked uncomfortable talking to Dennis
I totally understand why. He was probably wondering why the Secret Service weren't doing their job.
Dennis was hopped up here big time
I bet he was scared a little bit. You know, he probably didn't expect to see The Beach Boys drummer looking like a hobo.
@@toastertwo1602 he looked 65 in this video
He was sweating off the drinking binge of the night before.
Sheesh, I'd having given Mike Love twice over to have Denni and Carl alive, the story of the beachboys is so beautiful and adventurous yet so tragically what it is, long live the magic and music of the BEACH BOYS and the brothers-Wilson and Al Jardine! Peace and Love (respect to Mike and Bruce too, but you can tell when Mike sort of over stays his scenery chewing incomprehensible verbosity. His contribution and vocal iconic sound for so many songs are undeniable, but even if he remotely caused a single domino of insecurity and non-encouragement toward Brian as he was exploring the pissibilities of production and songwriting proceeding from Pet Sounds to the SMiLE project, and theres all theres legitimately great unreleased fan compiled approximated or accurate bootleg albums one is called Adault/Child, another is a mix from the Caribou sessions, if the execs released those and let the legacy grow, instead of say, the MIU album, anyway I digress, I have respect and love them all. I just think of all the people who are insufferable teetotalers (or always spoke against 'Brian or Carls or Dennis' "drug use"' but never gave accountability to his own actions or issues of managability like when he was on a total juice diet and began not getting the correct nutrition and managment almsot had to puthim in a straight jacket to get him to the doctor because Mike had been so sure that any and all "western medicine is bad" but then again, suppose it's only rock n roll but I like it :D
Yes he bit a chunk out of his brother's shoulder I believe........yikes!

Id love to see their full performance from the 1984 inaugural gala - Ive only seen one clip of that - and *never* this - great upload
The Beach Boys did not perform at President Reagan's 1981 or 1985 Inaugural galas. This I believe is the only performance of them in our collection. Thanks
@@RonaldReaganLibrary Didn't they perform Their Hearts Were Full of Spring at Reagan's '85 inauguration? They were all wearing tuxedos & later on, were on stage with Frank Sinatra, Liz Taylor, I think Zsa Zsa Gabor too.
Hated most of the mans politics... bur look at the president we have now and realize the class Reagan had............
that 82 class tho
When Dennis stood up and waved, did he say "hi mom"? lol
Who is singing the lead on Warmth of the Sun??
Jeffrey Foskett.
ronfowlermusic Ah right, thanks. I think I see him now on the far left.
yeah, he's sort of hidden behind a pole
MyFlippinValentine Jeff is
Reagan was a genius.
Lol. Yeah, Beirut and Iran-Contra were fantastic!! We’re still paying dearly for his administration’s provision of weapons to Iran (Hezbollah) in exchange for Contra funding. Illegal. Read and learn before making such absurd statements please. Beirut 10/23/83. Look it up.
I kinda like Mike.
He couldn't carry a tune if it was tattooed on his arse.
its a tough job, someone has to do it
The greatest president with The Great band.
Iran/Contra and the Beirut debacle….uh no, he wasn’t.
Fabulous!!
