Shame that after the settlement a few months back these guys still can't share a stage on the 4th of July.


So near but so far I guess. At least Dave can still have a foot in both camps.

I'm thinking Babylon, myself - far fewer people! - but...the gig is not posted on Al's page.  Anybody know if it's a confirmed date?

This is tough. I've never seen Al's band, but I will have seen Al and Matt by point as I'm seeing Al with Surf City All-Stars ten days from now. Babylon is about two hours from me as opposed to Atlantic City which is only one. I just saw Mike & Bruce a few months ago so I've seen everyone in the current lineup at least once. I really want to see Al's band because of all the sidemen who played with the Beach Boys. I'm upset I never got to see Mike Meros live before he passed away. I'd be kicking myself if I didn't take up the chance to see Ed Carter or Bobby Figueroa before something happened to them, too.

I guess I have to talk this over with my girlfriend, who so graciously volunteered to go with me to see Mike & Bruce (before I found out about Al + ESB) even though she doesn't really like the Beach Boys.

I know some of the Tripsitter guys are on that gig because I got a call to fill in for one of them at a Tripsitter/Good Vibrations gig in Ohio...

I wish NY was a little closer to me,  I would definitley go! But it's not meant to be, unfortunately. This will be my first non-Beach Boys concert summer since 2005  :( :(
