So Tupac performed at Coachella Music Festival recently despite the notable handicap of being dead. This was accomplished by state-of-the-art hologram technology. So, hypothetically what would you guys think if they did this with D&C for the reunion tour. Cool? Stupid? Creepy?

It would cheapen the tour and turn it into the equivalent of the "Elvis Live" shows where Elvis' backing band perform while they show video of him. It would traumatise at least Brian and possibly the rest of the band. It would turn a live performance into watching a pre-recorded video. It would, in short, be the worst possible thing they could do.

I was watching this video a few hours ago, mildly amused and fascinated but ultimately finding it really creepy and kind of stupid. Stupid because... y'know, leave well enough alone - the guy is dead, let him be. There's an element to this that feels really disrespectful.
Anyway, I told my girlfriend about it, and she pointed out it was only a matter of time until we see the likes of Kurt Cobain etc. on stage again. That was the point where my amusement ceased and I was just horrified outright. I certainly would not want to see Carl or Dennis "on stage again" in this manner. And yeah, even with plenty of warning, I cannot see Brian reacting well to such things.

Hologramatic representations of Dennis and Carl would be horrific in my opinion, plus I would keep thinking of Rimmer from Red Dwarf.

Classless is what that would be.

I wouldn't mind a TM speech or two or three. I want this to REALLY feel like a real Beach Boys concert. and Mike should get into a fight with John Cowsill!

I personally freaked out about the Tupac thing, I thought it was amazing (mostly from a 'how in the blue sh*t did they get it looking so good?!' perspective). But yeah, The Beach Boys shows are not really going to have the same insane OTT quality that a Snoop Dogg show at a festival will, and it's not appropriate here.

All roads lead to Kokomo. Exhaustive research in time travel has conclusively proven that there is no alternate universe WITHOUT Kokomo. It would've happened regardless.
What is this "life" thing you speak of ?
Syncopate it? In front of all these people?!

Several of us never had the chance to see Carl or Dennis either. And we never will. A video of them from decades ago is not the same as a live performance, and if you want to see a video of them, there are plenty to choose from. |

The only thing that we are guaranteed of in this life and everyone here is freaked out about it. If I can watch Dennis and Carl on tape or DVD at home, then I can watch same at a concert venue. I think it would be an honor if they were shown on tape at the show.

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

As We Also Have Forgiven Our Wife And Managers,
And Lead Us Not Into Kokomo,
But Deliver Us From Mike Love.
Amen. ---hypehat
