Q. Is a full live set rehearsed and ready?
Love: You know, we haven’t done rehearsals yet for the live show, but we have a tremendous amount to choose from, so I don’t think that’s going to be any problem at all. And we have all the voices intact. Bruce Johnston will do a couple of tunes, and Al Jardine is really great on a few leads, and myself and Brian — there’s a lot to choose from.

WHAT ABOUT DAVE?!?!?!?!?!! MIKE WTF?!

He was talking about lead vocals - David's never really been much of a singer (he's not bad, but he's not in the others' class), and didn't sing lead on the records (other than Summertime Blues). That said, I'd be very surprised if at the very least he didn't sing Forever live (and he does a remarkable job on that one).
