Disappointed to see the Indian on horseback logo not featured.  Hopefully there'll be more options when the tour rolls out.

I have never liked that logo/font... and that shirt design is pretty bland.

Yeah, after the surprising success of the vintage shirt I'd guess they use that. But maybe there'll be more at the concerts.

To sum it up, they blew it, they blew it consistently, they continue to blow it, it is tragic and this pathological problem caused The Beach Boys' greatest music to be so underrated by the general public.

I'm sorry that looks terrible, and i've always thought that Beach Boys logo sucked.

Shut up, Paul.  Angry Jealous *****. Oh, and of course you took that nickname. The Beatles were all about you, weren't they?  Roll Eyes

I'm not too big on that shirt myself.  I would like to get one of those blue Smile shirts that goes along with one of the combos but it doesn't look like they're offering it unless you get the CDs along with it which I already have.

I want a shirt with the 50th Celebration logo!

(I'm wearing one of the late Greg Larson's shirts in honor of tonight's reunion, and how much Greg would have enjoyed it.)

Can you blame me for embracing the Beatles as much as I have? No one even remembers Wings!

Oh my goodness! That's so sad, I had no idea he passed! I got a SMiLE shirt & a Denny shirt from him years ago, both were absolutely beautiful. It was so nice, he even sent a cd with it that I hadn't asked for or anything. Such a very nice guy

That T-shirt is not cool. Looks like someone went Goodwill hunting. Maybe it's for ironic hipsters.

Every time you spell Smile as SMiLE, an angel's wings are forcibly torn off its body.

At first I thought it was a replica of this shirt, but I was wrong

John, you gotta admit that shirt isn't too whippy. It's daft. Reminds me of knockoff shirts made by 3rd party distributors back in the 70's. I hope these aren't the ones that are going to be available at the 50th concerts. I doubt it.

Best ones I've seen recently are the ones with the Beach Boys logo and "The Beach Boys" scribed on it (Indian on a horse) that came out last year. If they could slide a "50th Tour" or something like that underneath that logo somewhere, you'd then have a real good shirt.

I, I love the colorful clothes she wears, and she's already working on my brain. I only looked in her eyes, but I picked up something I just can't explain. I, I bet I know what she’s like, and I can feel how right she’d be for me. It’s weird how she comes in so strong, and I wonder what she’s picking up from me. I hope it’s good, good, good, good vibrations, yeah!!

Agree, these new shirts are a way of the mark. I'd expected exactly what you'd described; even this is closer and more acceptable.:
