Rolling Stone - Beach Boys Play Tour - Jeff replaces Christian Love

[urbanite]

Sure it's possible they could play until they're 80, but it wouldn't be a huge shock if one of the members had a heart attack and died, if only because they're older and that kind of thing happens.

[Pretty Funky]

You're a right little ray of sunshine aren't you!

[John Manning]

Well, this years beach boy tour is being called 50 years of FFF.  Next year 50 years of madness???, and the year after 50 years of PS?  Then, in 17, Beach Boys Love You long time tour?

Next year is a biggie. 50 Years of California Girls. I don't know if Mike Love can resist.

50 Years of California Girls are all pregnant. Yuk yuk yuk…

please end this thread; it is not generating information or insight. Create a new thread when tangible updates about the BB shows and personnel come to light.

thank you,

Why end it?  Other threads seem to get re-posted on years after the fact. Though perhaps if there is info not related to the specific topic, it should be posted in another thread. This thread went all over the place, but that happens all the time, too.

I do, which is why I bought it last year, and renamed it.

If you own that castle, you ought to host one of the Beach Boys' fan conventions there.

Was tonight intended to be the first (re) appearance of Jeff? And if so, is anyone attending?

[Rich Panteluk]

Jeff played with them last night.  Not sure f it was his first show with them though and I wasn't there but I received some pics from the show and a positive report from another fan.

[the professor]

OK, we are back on topic. We have a new BB band and the promise of at least one show with ABB. The Professor doubles down:  Al and Dave will not play with BW but rather will do more shows with the BB--a prediction, neither knowledge nor rumor. Capital will start talking with the band , and a new album, without JT but made by all the BB, including Brian, will come out in 2016, containing some Love-Jardine authored songs and Love-Wilson as well; it will NOT be a anniversary of PS related album. I will stand corrected if none of this happens by New Year's Eve 2016.

[baseball95]

I'm anxious to see if Jeff takes over falsetto, if they add any new songs to the set as well as what vocals he gets.

[SMiLE Brian]

An album with love-Jardine songs sounds terrible. Brian writing with Mike is already bad enough since Mike's creativity is dried up.

Professor, I take that bet. With Al's son in Brian's band, and Al & David still recoding with Brian, I can easily see more BAD shows.

Let us say, loser buys dinner next time I come down to Redondo?

[Mark H.]

At the Louisville show right now.  Jeff is here and looking relaxed as the show is abot to start.  No surprise guests that I've seen thus far.  My first Mike/Bruce show.

[Mikie]

Jeff Foskett's integration into the Mike and Bruce show is seamless. He's already played and sang all of those songs 437 times each.

[SMiLE Brian]

 

[donald]

Heff Foskett's integration into the Mike and Bruce show is seamless. He's already played and sang all of those songs 437 times each.

Mikie, I beg to differ.  More like 837 times.

I'm assuming that was a Freudian slip. "Heff".........hahahahha.


I'm a bit overweight myself by maybe 20 pounds so I think I'm allowed to make a Foskett fat joke. Maybe.

[the professor]

agreed. I'll put two tacos at burrito jr on PCH near Avenue A on it. I would not risk a full meal at old Tony's on the pier!I guess what is so strange is that all of the Beach Boys are in play now, that is years ago we did not even have the question of al and Dave playing with the Beach Boys but now they are going to, at least for that one show. Look, the whole thing is so confusing to all of us. My hope is something so simple, that all the surviving Beach Boys can make music together and be happy and show us their creative and performative best. That is all that I really hope for.

According to Twitter, they played "Dear Prudence" at Abbey Road on The River tonight. Cool stuff.

And here's a photo. Mike and Bruce have been brought closer together. http://instagram.com/p/ocbsnbDVt8/

Also apparently Stamos was in the house.

Sounds like Jeff got the falsettos.

That was a misprint. Didn't have my glasses on and didn't preafrood before I hit the "post" button.

I respect Jeff. He's a good guy. Some say he isn't so nice and say they haven't had pleasant meetings with him in person. I've never had any problems with him.
