Hello All,

There's been a lot of posts about Brian's next project following the mostly excellent No Pier Pressure album. 

It's been a while, how about another Brian Wilson live album? 

I'd take a CD companion to the Soundstage DVD (especially for the far superior IMHO live version of Runaway Dancer).  But a live document of the upcoming No Pier Pressure Tour would make an excellent Christmas gift.  Especially considering that Al and Blondie are in the touring band.  A live CD could also provide a slightly different take on some of the NPP tracks with guest stars (should they make the setlist). 

Maybe partner with Target for a deluxe version with Wanderlust and the All Star version of God Only Knows as bonus tracks. 

I think that's a great idea!
This tour is sure to be very special, and I would LOVE if he released a live CD of this tour.
I wonder if he will get up and play some bass on this tour, he didn't on his Soundstage DVD, but maybe he will during the tour, if his back isn't bothering him.

I wouldn't mind seeing another live album from Brian, although I think at this point given the breadth of his song selections on tour, it'd be really awesome to get a collection of as many songs as possible from all of the tours. Possibly stuff that hasn't showed up on Live at the Roxy and Pet Sounds Live.
