Title: Brian and the Ballet? Post by: Empire Of Love on October 10, 2007, 09:43:52 AM Was in the hospital for the birth of my new baby Monday/Tuesday. There was copy of the latest USAToday laying around. On the front page (of the Life section, I believe) was a picture of Brian Wilson. It was a quick blurb about him joining a ballet for a performance of God Only Knows. Does anyone know anything about this? How did it come about? Where is it?

Post by: Goin’Bald on October 11, 2007, 05:05:33 AM I read somewhere that ticket prices are quite.......uh...expensive. About 375 pounds. Maybe AGD can enlighten us about that. But for that price I insist on seeing Brian dance.

Doe on October 11, 2007, 05:14:00 AM It's a benefit gig for the English National Ballet, in the presence of the Duke of York (Prince Andrew, the Queen's 3rd child). Brian's playing a 45-minute set, the ENB are performing to one song, "God Only Knows" and yes, the tix are £375 ($750) a pop, but for that you also get a champagne reception, a three-course dinner and the chance to dress up in a penguin suit.
