From 1985 to 1989, The Beach Boys continued to bring their classic harmonies and timeless summer spirit to audiences everywhere. Even as the music world shifted, their shows delivered the familiar energy, nostalgia, and singalong moments that fans expected—backed by crews working behind the scenes to make each night happen.

This section of the archive collects Showco-related materials from The Beach Boys’ late ’80s tours—photos, passes, documents, and other memorabilia as they’re located and digitized.

I’m building this archive by hand and will keep adding items as more materials are identified and preserved.

Were you on the road, in the crowd, or working with The Beach Boys or Showco between 1985 and 1989?

If you have passes, itineraries, photos, paperwork, or stories from this era, please contact me to help expand this part of the archive.
