The Grammys had a special tribute last night for the legendary California surf band The Beach Boys. I have not watched award shows for decades, but I could not get away from The Grammys last night as modern musicians sang covers of the classic Beach Boys songs while the actual Beach Boys looked on from the balcony in deep appreciation.

Do you love me, do you surfer girl?
Surfer girl, my little surfer girl
-"Surfer Girl" by The Beach Boys
