This may have been the appearance in the National Guard Armory in nearby Ontario on March 31. Two possible venues in Riverside are the Riverside Armory, 2501 Fairmount Boulevard, and Riverside Municipal Auditorium, 7th Street and Lemon Street. However, it is unlikely they would have played at a municipal auditorium this early in their career. | |

| July 9, 1962 Monday | In a letter this date, Nick Venet told Murry to tell the group “they are doing a very good job at the record hops.” Hence, it is likely there were additional personal appearances in June and early July 1962. | | |

The group flew from Los Angeles to Chicago, rented a Chevrolet station wagon and U-Haul, and drove 315 miles west to West Des Moines, Iowa.

| June 12, 1963 Wednesday | Venue unknown Houston, TX | Jo Ann Marks’s journal. With Jan & Dean and Jimmy Reed. The venue may have been the Cinnamon Cinder that opened there in February 1963.  Undated photo Murry Wilson in the control booth during a recording session. On his left is Jodi Gable, president of the Beach Boys Fan Club. On his right, I believe, is recording engineer, Chuck Britz. If correct, this may have been Western Recorders at which “Surfer Girl,” “Little Deuce Coupe,” and “Catch a Wave” were recorded June 12, 1963. The American Federation of Musicians (AFM), Local 47, Los Angeles, contract for this session does not include the time of the session. Hence, the band may have played in Houston earlier that day and then flown to LA for an evening recording session. At far right is a woman who may be Audree Wilson. The identify of the gentleman in the back is unknown. Murry always kept a spare clean shirt, which can be seen behind him. Reflected in the glass are the band members and their musical gear. | |
