What shall we expect from the GRAMMY performance?

[Pinder's Gone To Kokomo And Back Again]

Maybe The "reunited Beach Boys" will merely be presenters!

[Shady]

I read they might be opening the show, that would be fantastic because I could tune out straight after

[Pretty Funky]

Springsteen, Macca confirmed. Perhaps others such as Dylan and Jagger in the audience.

If Mike walks up to microphone tightening his belt with that crazy look in his eyes, I'm staying tuned in.

Where did you read that?

[KokoNO]

How about this medley....

1. California Girls (Mike)
2. Help Me, Rhonda (Al)
3. Good Vibrations (Brian)

"Good Vibrations (Brian)"

No he means Brian

[Pinder's Gone To Kokomo And Back Again]

It was a joke!

Sheesh!

Not like Jeff would..... ummm... be there or anything if Brian sang GV

New album
Posted on February 2, 2012 at 03:39:43 PM by AGD

I'm given to understand that Brian & Mike were in the studio in Hollywood on Wednesday writing a new song for the album and that by tomorrow (Friday) all of the band including David Marks will be together in the studio playing & singing...



....and preparing for the grammy show no doubt. Wow, sounds like it may be happening after all!

That's very cool. I guess they were in the studio to finish a song they began earlier, right? I don't think they could plan to start and finish a song on wednesday and then record it friday. That is of course, if they are recording that said song today and not another one. But it's very good they go for new material

[Justin]

I was on Hollywood and Vine just last night and passed the Capitol building and wondered if they were in there recording.  Can't wait for the Grammys!

[Shady]

I bet they wll show up, I'm getting really excited

[Justin]

I really hope their performance is either right at the beginning or at the very, very end...not somewhere in the middle, easily lost in the shuffle.  These are legends and deserve the opening slot or the "save the best for last" closing slot. 

[Margarita]

Wait, do we even know for sure that the BBs are going to have any involvement in the Grammys?  This article doesn't mention them at all. 

[hypehat]

I guess AGD's sure to the point of belligerence is confirmation of something, as it always has been. But, the lack of promotion is strange.

[Rocker]

They might have learned from the last experience.
Maybe it'll be handled as a surprise appearance (although Mr Jardine kinda killed that option  )

[Justin]

Well if it's supposed to be a "surprise" performance...why would there be promotion?

[oldsurferdude]

How about this medley....

1. California Girls (Mike)
2. Help Me, Rhonda (Al)
3. Good Vibrations (Brian)

God, I hope not. Comparable list would be BA, BTTYS, and RARM. I have never seen GV ever come across well on the tube. CG, HMR meh. The ante needs to be upped as far as what they may perform. Perhaps the middle period would be best for all concerned with Carnegie type versions of-Darlin', H&V, with ICHM included as a tribute to Carl.

Mike will push hard for kokomo I bet.

I think KokoNO's set list is very good and very likely. At Brian's big performances (Live Aid, Queen's 50th, etc.) GV always rocked very hard and people went crazy. And those same songs at the Reagan celebration last year also brought the house down

[Shady]

Al said it, Rolling Stone reported it along with a bunch of other outlets

I think even the Grammys mentiond it but we've heard nothing since

[Pinder's Gone To Kokomo And Back Again]

I'm going with it being a "surprise"

[Ron]

I was on Hollywood and Vine just last night and passed the Capitol building and wondered if they were in there recording.  Can't wait for the Grammys!

If you watched the video for Do It Again, you'd know they all (except David Marks) have a parking spot outside.  Shoulda just checked to see if anything was parked there.

Just when I thought you couldn't get any more annoying, I just learned that you're one of those people that insists on abbreviating everything.  BA?  BTTYS?  RARM?  WTF? 

[Ron]

I hope so, but still it's hard for me to fathom them actually letting them open the show.

yeah, took me a minute to figure out what BA stood for.

just once, somewhere, sometime in this whole "celebration" shebang, I want them to perform at least one unexpected, unconventional song. if not, I will be incredibly disappointed.
