You are absolutely right! And I'm chillin' as I post this. At this point in the conversation, I really don't care what they do. They are The Beach Boys and they will do what they do. Maybe an Eagles concert would do me good too. ;-)

The Brianista Prayer

Oh Brian
Thou Art In Hawthorne,
Harmonied Be Thy name
Your Kingdom Come,
Your Steak Well Done,
On Stage As It Is In Studio,
Give Us This Day, Our Shortenin' Bread
And Forgive Us Our Bootlegs,
As We Also Have Forgiven Our Wife And Managers,
And Lead Us Not Into Kokomo,
But Deliver Us From Mike Love.
Amen.  ---hypehat

Just my unwanted two cents, I'm not so sure Brian wouldn't allow a Carl and Dennis bit in the show, he talks about them on "Lucky old Sun" and even showed pictures of them behind him in concert, didn't he? 

Also, like Andrew said, everybody copes different.  My father died 9 years ago, I have a painting hanging in my living room of him and me and my brother done when we were 5 years old, everytime I walk by it I don't look at it, and it's hanging on the wall out in the open!  I have a great life, I have good relationships and have 'moved on' so to say, but that doesn't mean that I want to go looking at pictures and home videos.  If Brian feels similarly, I can certainly relate.  I know many, many people who go on with their life after somebody dies and don't like bringing it up, because ultimately what's the point?  They're gone! 

I think the post far above where someone said we shouldn't expect Brian to confront emotional issues in the middle of a football stadium was exactly on point. 
Ron, this was my main point. If Brian can't cope with his brothers' deaths in private at this point so many years later, expecting him to do so publicly is just not realistic. I also agree about coping with peoples' deaths - the deaths of several people close to me have rendered it almost impossible for me to look at photos of them - it is just too sad.

If it comes down to the dead getting their due versus the living being comfortable and able to put on a good show, then we have to respect Brian's wishes, if indeed he does not feel comfortable.

You are absolutely right! And I'm chillin' as I post this. At this point in the conversation, I really don't care what they do. They are The Beach Boys and they will do what they do. Maybe an Eagles concert would do me good too. ;-)

Dr. Beach Boy, I didn't take anything in this thread personally... until now. Eagles concert??? You've made a powerless enemy today, my friend!

Hey, the Eagles are not exactly my cup of tea either, but they did have a few good tunes; "Take It Easy" being one of them and "Already Gone" for another. I saw them once, in 1975 with Linda Ronstadt. Between the two, a pretty good show overall.

On the subject of Brian not coping with Dennis and Carls deaths, I distinctly remember that on the That Lucky Old Sun tour which I saw in Birmingham, England in 2007, pictures of Dennis and Carl were projected onto a backdrop whilst Brian and band were performing Southern California and singing the lines 'I had this dream, Singing with my brothers, In harmony, supporting each other'......
