The philosopher Michel Foucault wrote in praise of curiosity, calling for "a readiness to find strange and singular what surrounds us; a certain relentlessness to break up our familiarities...; a fervor to grasp what is happening and what passes; a casualness in regard to the traditional hierarchies of the important and the essential."

MYRTLE BEACH ONLINE David Marks says, "The energy in [‘Surfin' U.S.A.’] kind of defines the Beach Boys' identity. Today I find the same thing."
ROLLINGSTONE "The show really took off for the Beach Boys mastermind’s excellent performance: [Brian] Wilson — dressed casually in a cool blue-and-white-striped rugby shirt and jeans — performed serotonin-inducing classics like 'God Only Knows,' 'Help Me Rhonda' and 'Do You Wanna Dance,' which featured some crazy psychedelic light shows. 'Good Vibrations,' which featured the entire night’s all-star lineup, capped the set."
NY DAILY NEWS "The evening found a clear highlight in a section devoted to the summery West Coast music of guest star Brian Wilson. Coming towards the close of this long, slow, and often aimless night, Wilson provided some needed animation and helped redeem much of what came before."
