Title: Tour Dates Moving Forward Post by: RubberSoul13 on November 11, 2023, 02:14:07 PM Hi All,
I haven't been on here in a long time. I knew that Mike and Bruce were performing at a casino near me last night, but I had a gig of my own, and went to look at their tour dates today, and noticed they have nothing beyond the next week...anywhere. I can't think of a time Post-C50 that Mike and Bruce haven't had a list months into the future of tour dates. Obviously Brian has been quietly retired from the road for awhile now, and I see Al only has one family and friends show coming up. Is this the end? OR...is it perhaps the beginning of another Reunion? Perhaps a reunion, to say goodbye? The last time I saw Mike and Bruce's calendar this empty, was early 2012...... Thoughts? Title: Re: Tour Dates Moving Forward Post by: Emdeeh on November 11, 2023, 09:13:09 PM BBFC has a date for Mike and Bruce on April 28, 2024 at the Stagecoach festival in Indio, CA.

Title: Re: Tour Dates Moving Forward Post by: Emdeeh on November 12, 2023, 05:05:10 PM Here's another one from the official BB site, almost a year from now:
Oct. 30 – Nov. 3, 2024 The Beach Boys / Mike Love & Bruce Johnston Malt Shop Memories Cruise Ft. Lauderdale, FL Ports of call include St. Maarten and Tortola. Jan & Dean's Beach Party starring Dean Torrence are also on the cruise, along with a bunch of other artists.

He’s always loved touring/traveling and he strikes me as the kind of guy who would not enjoy just sitting at home-he loves it

New Mike and Bruce date March 1, 2024 -- Plant City, FL -- Florida Strawberry Festival Title: Re: Tour Dates Moving Forward Post by: Emdeeh on November 15, 2023, 05:34:14 PM Another new date for Mike and Bruce:

Glad to see any myths being dispelled, though it's still strange that there isn't more out there for the Jan-May window of time like usual!
Title: Re: Tour Dates Moving Forward Post by: MyDrKnowsItKeepsMeCalm on November 16, 2023, 11:05:30 AM Elk Grove Village on July 4th, whew. I'm relieved they locked that in in time.
Title: Re: Tour Dates Moving Forward Post by: Emdeeh on December 12, 2023, 11:10:36 PM New 2024 tour dates for Mike and Bruce:
Feb. 21-22 -- Honolulu, HI -- Hawaii Theatre March 2 -- St. Augustine, FL -- St. Augustine Amphitheatre March 3 -- Fort Pierce, FL -- Sunrise Theatre, two shows March 7 -- The Villages, FL -- Sharon L. Morse Performing Arts Center, two shows March 8 -- Fort Myers, FL -- Barbara B. Mann Performing Arts Hall March 9 -- Hollywood, FL -- Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Title: Re: Tour Dates Moving Forward Post by: RubberSoul13 on December 17, 2023, 01:04:02 AM Guess it's safe to say things are carrying on as usual! But, there's definitely less on Mike and Bruce's plate than usual by this point in the year.

But, there's definitely less on Mike and Bruce's plate than usual by this point in the year. I suspect, even as stunningly spry as Mike is at 82 going on 83 years old, they've had to slow down that tour schedule grind to some degree, even after adding younger players to the backing band. |
