Everyone back together for a Beach Boys Q&A for Sirius XM?

Wonder if I can get another Sirius free trial...
The Glastonbury rumors were started by a British tabloid writer speculating about who might play there next year and then asked Mike if he was interested.
I've heard that if one signs out of their account and signs up with a new e-mail address, they can get another 30-day trial, at least on the smartphone app.
The annoying thing about the SiriusXM app is that, in my experience, when the free trial ends, they simply log you out of the account and when you try to log in, it simply doesn't work. It doesn't provide any pop-up notice saying "your free trial is over." So you kind of just have to count out the 30 days, and then randomly soon after the app will stop working.

Thanks to Jerry Schilling, exposure for the band has increased dramatically. Eliot Lott seemed like nothing more than a caretaker.
In addition to the guys performing at this event, what I'd really like to see is another new reunited Beach Boys album - followed by one or more reunited BBs special appearances, or better yet, a full blown tour.

I highly doubt they'll perform together at this event; for a variety of reasons.
I'm hearing they might be doing some type of acoustic mini-set like the Grammy museum thing in 2012. But with almost a week to go anything can happen... or not happen.
Interesting; that seems to be the most likely scenario if they chose to sing together.
My thinking was that they'd want to save their new "first" reunion musical appearance for something else, something bigger. But if nothing bigger is coming, then maybe they don't view a quickie mini-set as a huge deal.
It looks like both camps are shoehorning this into ongoing tour schedules (especially Mike), so there wouldn't be much rehearsal time.
I'd be curious to know if any ancillary members will be there. I'd be happy with Totten and Matt Jardine (or just Matt if Al and Dave can handle sufficient guitar duties).

This makes me wonder if the rumors about the Glastonbury reunion could come true...
Rolling Stone has picked it up and mentions this.
The Q&A will feature fan questions and focus on the Beach Boys’ “SiriusXM channel, their new album, The Beach Boys with The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and their celebrated career as one of the world’s most beloved and respected bands.”
...so it could tie in with a Glastonbury/ RPO deal.
My prediction is Mike and Brian will be exactly the same as they were in interviews together back in 2012.
As Emdeeh mentioned, the Glastonbury thing was just a case of one paper garbling an interview with Mike and conflating Mike's band with *THE* band in full.
While truly "anything is possible", Mike already has gigs booked into the middle of 2019. I can't imagine any full reunion tour happening before 2020 unless they want to buy off and/or convert a BUNCH of 2019 Mike dates to reunion dates. All of which is getting WAY too far ahead of what's going on, I realize.
But I'm not sure of the logistical/marketing issues involved in actually doing a full-blown reunion show only as a one-off. Mike's band *constantly* touring under the same name creates a constant potential for confusion in the marketplace. But I dunno, maybe a few one-off "reunion" things is how they'd have to test the waters these days.
Or maybe they'll just do this Sirius thing and nothing else. Or maybe it'll just be an interview. Interesting times for sure...

Hopefully this will not be a one and done thing as far as hearing this, because my account is not current
I know SiriusXM archives "events" that can be replayed. I sure hope someone is able to grab this and throw it up on YouTube.
I also hope they have some video cameras there to catch this, especially if they play/sing together.
