I know I've mentioned this before but I'd really am interested in hearing what they think about P.O.B.'s success a few years ago.
Or something about "Marcella"... angel

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.

We should try to predict questions and answers and see if one of them actually is correct.

I'm thinking one of the answers to a question will be....

A: When we heard the voices coming back over the speakers, It felt just like 1965 again.

A: The audience response has been tremendous.  From eight year olds to eighty year olds!

An interesting question for Mike and Bruce would be how much of the Beach Boys-setlist will go into their act's list. That is stuff like IJWMFTT, Marcella, Add Some Music and the two new songs

A: I felt some of the lyrics on SMiLE were obtuse. I call them acid alliteration.

A:I was seven years old when I moved in across from the Wilsons.

A:Twice a day, every day.  Smiley

Maybe somebody could ask this question for me:

What's the best song written by members of the group that has not been recorded yet?

IIRC, it pops up during the 50th slideshow things along with the rest of their albums. And M&B did play the title tune well into the 00's. I honestly think Mike loves it. Bruce either hates it because it lost them money or thinks it's on a par with Sunflower or a similar forgotten 'classic', although he doesn't mention it often if it all. I think Al hates it (adam_ghost could testify) and I don't suppose David would care.

Bruce very recently said he likes it.

It's worth noting he said that in the infamous "lol Europe sucks" interview, after which he admitted he was putting the interviewer on. So was he just saying he liked SIP to surprise the guy, or was he sincere? Who knows.

I want to know when they're going to release Everybody Wants to Live, Lines, It's Trying to Say and the other Adult/Child songs that were never released.

They could even change the lyrics:

The questions are starting to flow and some of them are cringe-worthy (e.g. do you like to surf?)...

Even Billy Corgan asked such a vague question.  Come on, Billy!

How is this for a question? Just want to see if it's a good question or not before submitting it

What are the chances of seeing new unreleased material in the box set such as Wouldn't It Be Nice to Live Again?

Plus, do I have to start the message with @TheBeachBoys or just put the hashtag thing at the end? (Again, sorry! New to Twitter!)

How much do you bet "Beach Boys Concert" is only Mike's favorite album because it went to #1?

That's probably my least favorite Beach Boys live album.

Bah! Unsurprisingly a lot of "what's your favorite this" and "what's your favorite that" are being picked up.

@TheBeachBoys sends them the message, the hashtag just trends it. You're question is pretty good, but I doubt it gets answered. That's the bad thing about stuff like this, they want to keep it light and fun so they'll just answer the same questions they've been answering their whole careers.

Kind of funny to read about these pranks on Carl, though.

Have made those question but no luck....

#BeachBoys What did you enjoy the most in your spanish visit this summer?

#BeachBoys Mike, did you ever considered doing All I Wanna Do live?

#BeachBoys What about recording a whole album just like From There To Back Again-PCH-Summer's Gone?

#BeachBoys Brian and Mike, what kind of feelings did you have when you wrote together again?

"Unsurprisingly" is the point. I guess most people who got to aks questions are non-hardcore fans and/or blueboarders...
