Couldn't find this posted anywhere else.

http://www.streetinsider.com/Press+Releases/Media+Alert:+Brian+Wilson+to+Make+Global+Announcements+at+Capitol+Records+in+Hollywood+on+Monday,+May+19/3660906.html

Interesting...does this tie in with the recordings Brian was making at the Capitol building recently?  DISCUSS!

Hmmm. First of all, what's a "global announcement"? But second of all, I hope it's either some gigantic project of releasing previously unreleased material or (as I am guessing) TLOS and an American tour...although that's not really global.

And then to celebrate, he'll give all the Iraqi's steaks and birthday cake, but eat most of it himself

But seriously, my guess, based on recent events:

Brian has been resigned to Capitol, who will release TLOS, and we'll get a release date on Monday.

How about, taking a page out of the Radiohead/Raconteurs book but one-upping them (competitive spirit and all), we get a release date OF Monday?

It's either going to be......

1) A BB Reunion

Or

2) Brian has resigned to Capitol and TLOS will be released sometime soon..

Yeah, I agree with most of the above....Brian is coming "home" to where (Capitol Records) he had his greatest success, this time with another SMiLE/BWPS-like release. Another "Brian Is Back", this time literally.

I gotta give Melinda credit, she keeps trying....

From "California Role"
"You don't have to climb the Capitol Tower, or play the Hollywood Bowl, if there's a roll in your heart and a rock in your soul"

But of course Brian's doing both, and I wouldn't be surprised in the least if the TLOS release date is around the Hollywood Bowl dates.

I wish he'd be anouncing the release of Beach Boys' archival stuff, but he wouldn't do it by himself.

So.... Not interested.

Agreed its TLOS.

Wouldn't it be cool if Brian made a crack like ' Pity Capitol didn't give a s**t about our work back in 66' . Razz

If he is signed to Capitol again as a solo act, that's pretty impressive that they thought that much of TLOS.

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.

Well, if this is true, this is a momumental breakthrough of sorts, isn't it? Not only is this news good, but it opens up boundless possibilities for future archive releases too, or am I being overly enthusiastic?

Exactly right - though announcing their prescence beforehand would somewhat spoil the surprise if that was true.

I'm guessing TLOS will be released through Capitol and getting an international release date (hence the 'global' announcement). If thats what it is, I'll be a happy man.

By the way, have you guys noted that it says 'announcements', plural?

Hmm, well I had heard more TLOS recordings were done in late April.  Don't know how credible it is, but if true I wonder if these were final touches.  We shll find out soon enough.

Just watch, it's going to be something like that Brian and Capitol are teaming to open a chain of steakhouses in malls across the globe, or a line of clothing--something stupid like that. (Obviously I hope not.)

Possibly it's an opportunity to promote the upcoming singles box set too? (i'd guess along with many here that the main announcement will be relating to a new contract for TLOS and possibly other releases, and since it was reported that a film crew was in for the recent recording sessions, I would imagine they'll be around on Monday also...........)

Is that right? I hadn't heard about the film crew. It would be great if TLOS was a CD/DVD set - I can never get enough of seeing Brian at work in the studio.

I'm thinking the same r.e. the announcement.

With it being global, I can't help but think that Elvis will be involved somehow.

BTW, what's a "B-roll op"? Different than a photo op?
