Guess Mike has made him one.

Thread title updated for those that didn't get the premise.

This was mentioned in another thread and something tells me that Mike doesn't add things to that website himself.

As Bruce became a member 48 years ago it's not really a big deal is it?

Depends.  There was controversy over who was an original member regarding David and Al. Not taking away Bruce's contribution as a real Beach Boy - he is. Just not an original member in my opinion.

Yeah, I do think Mike/Mike's management has a say - it's his web site. Is he personally being web master for beachboysband.net?  Silly thought.

He is an original member - of Bruce & Terry.

I don't know who would be on the fence about buying beach boys tickets cause they're not sure whether or not the show features "original members" . Or I guess, I mean... If you give a sh*t enough to care about lineups, you'd already know the f*** who Bruce is. And you would already know about the Mike  & Bruce show, and would hang out here, or you would hang out somewhere where that information is available. The Bruce timeline is pretty well disseminated. First song he sang on was California Girls. Not original. Imaginary beach boys fans who need clarification from the beachboysband.net site on whether or not the casino show they're attending is legit, probably don't exist.

Would a young fan seeing the Mike and Bruce show for the first time, then getting all into the Beach Boys music, read that web page, go out and buy, say, the Surfer Girl album, see Bruce wasn't in the band, feel duped?  At the least confused. Probably. Just sayin.

Well, lessee... band formed in 1961, Bruce joined in 1965. Going out on a limb here and saying - not.

Unless I'm mistaken, for 74 gigs last year Jeff Foskett introduced the group members as 'original Beach Boys'. Nobody thought anything of it then so why now?

Bruce has more than earned his stripes but I prefer the phrase "Authentic Beach Boy" to "original". Looking forward to the tour marking his 50th anniversary.

The Mike and Bruce 50th Anniversary tour!!   Does that date from 1965 or 1998??

What defines Bruce as Authentic, by the by?

Seal of Authenticity tattooed on his ass. Interesting side note, that's why he loved the short-shorts: the procedure went awry and got infected; the shorts allowed much-needed fresh air to soothe the wound.

  Bruce is not an original Beach Boy. He is, however, the long lost eldest Osmond brother.

The original Beach Boys are Brian, Dennis and Carl Wilson, Mike Love and Al Jardine. If the publicity for the current line up must clarify peoples status then he should be billed as 'longstanding member'.

He might have just gotten that one recently at Sea World, right? The Seal of Authenticity? The Seal..?

He also should have 6 years (72-78) subtracted from his length of service.
