Maroon 5 opened the performance with "Surfer Girl", in a set decorated with surfboards, as the crowd swayed. Foster the People followed with "Wouldn't It Be Nice," and then, introduced by radio host Ryan Seacrest the Beach Boys took the stage - for the first time in 20 years - to perform "Good Vibrations" in honor of their 50th anniversary. Maroon 5 and Foster the People returned for the finale of that song.

Though the band was a little stiff on stage, Grammy viewers tweeting along welcomed the nostalgic break. "BEACH BOYS TOGETHER! This is so great to see. I can't even express my joy for this! Real music y'all. Get it Beach Boys. I love Brian Wilson," tweeted @ImMattGiraud.
