OK, we are back on topic. We have a new BB band and the promise of at least one show with ABB. The Professor doubles down:  Al and Dave will not play with BW but rather will do more shows with the BB--a prediction, neither knowledge nor rumor. Capital will start talking with the band , and a new album, without JT but made by all the BB, including Brian, will come out in 2016, containing some Love-Jardine authored songs and Love-Wilson as well; it will NOT be a anniversary of PS related album. I will stand corrected if none of this happens by New Year's Eve 2016.

I'll be as astonished if A&D don't play a few more shows with M&B as I will be if there's a new, full-on BB album at any time in the future.

I'll be very surprised if the first doesn't happen, and absolutely amazed (as would Paul McCartney) if the second doesn't ultimately occur.

An album with love-Jardine songs sounds terrible. Brian writing with Mike is already bad enough since Mike's creativity is dried up.

Imagine what sorts of songs Mike and Brian could write if they just decided to write about what they really cared about. The songs would be a mix of songs about food, Shortnin' Bread covers, and songs about TM. It would be completely insane and either brilliant or terrible.

agreed. I'll put two tacos at burrito jr on PCH near Avenue A on it. I would not risk a full meal at old Tony's on the pier!I guess what is so strange is that all of the Beach Boys are in play now, that is years ago we did not even have the question of al and Dave playing with the Beach Boys but now they are going to, at least for that one show. Look, the whole thing is so confusing to all of us. My hope is something so simple, that all the surviving Beach Boys can make music together and be happy and show us their creative and performative best. That is all that I really hope for.

Professor, I take that bet. With Al's son in Brian's band, and Al & David still recoding with Brian, I can easily see more BAD shows.

I'll wager half the farm, the college fund and my mortal soul* that there will be no more BAD shows in the foreseeable future (shows with M&B along for the ride are ineligible). And as David is currently in Peru, I doubt he's recording with Brian.

Depending on how you define "soul" I may even agree you actually have a "mortal soul". Grin (As opposed to an immortal one. Cheesy)

Get Randell back on the falsetto parts.

Jeff`s voice sounds like nails on a blackboard to me. Harsh probably but there we are.

Randell's vocal register seems closer to Brian's, in falsetto, effortlessly. 

But, I think Jeff's is closer to Carl's.  There is still some YouTube from the 1980's, from Belgium, I think, where you can hear Jeff (a very fine singer, in his own right) on Don't Worry Baby. 

It is what you're born with.  The one with the greatest vocal register range is Mike. Amazing.  But he was born with it.  JMHO.

Here's the setlist from last night: http://www.setlist.fm/setlist/the-beach-boys/2014/waterfront-park-louisville-ky-73c086ed.html

Note that it was a Beatles-themed event, hence the 3 covers.

Wonder if Mike sang Dear Prudence. That would be pretty cool.

Dear Prudence is another reference to Mike's time in Rishikesh with the Beatles, since Prudence was Prudence Farrow. That trip must have been the highlight of Mike's life. I'm sure it will take up a chapter or two if he ever writes a book.

Well....this is huge news for The Beach Boys (touring version) and I am seriously thinking of buying tickets to their tour in July.   
To a person who became a BB fan in the 80's Jeffrey IS a Beach Boy.   If Al and David book more shows with the band it would be great.

Mike sang Back in the USSR followed by Dear Prudence.  He also sang a new original about Guru dev - meh.

I mentioned variations on this in a previous post, but as to the question of more “BAD” shows, my theory was that adding Al and Dave (and Blondie) to shows did help Brian’s ticket sales more than Al and Dave would help sell tickets to Mike’s shows.

While we only have an indication of a couple of October Brian gigs, it appears he may end up playing mostly smaller indoor theaters and art centers and the like, rather than larger indoor theaters and outdoor amphitheaters. If that is the case, that could possibly be an indication we won’t see Al or Dave or other guests on the next tour, as Brian can more easily fill these smaller venues with his regular fan base.

On the one hand, Al being on Brian’s new album, recording with him in the last month or so, and his son joining Brian’s band, coupled with Al having played with Brian last year, would seem to point to a strong possibility of Al at least playing with Brian again this year. At the same time, in the strange world of the Beach Boys, I could totally see Matt playing Brian’s band without Al being invited along. Al certainly appears to not have a beef with Matt being independently employed even when it’s Beach Boys-related. He commented in his 2000 Goldmine interview that he was aware that Matt was still playing with Mike in 1998 after he (Al) was gone.

 So, could we possibly not see actual “BAD” shows, but maybe just Al? Who knows….

Isn't Matt over 40 years old? And doesn't Al have other sons he would like to spend time with?  Al may or may not tour with Brian in the future, but I doubt Matt being with Brian is that big of an influence on whether he will. I'm sure the ball is in Brian's court and whether he wants to pony up another salary for Al.

Why ? You might just as well say both Alan's sons singing in California Saga indicate he'd play with them at some stage... or that Alan & David playing with Mike twice this year means they will again this summer. My guess is that the latter is far more likely than Alan joining Brian on tour.

a short few years ago I had grown accustomed to attending excellent shows by both Brian's band and Mike's band.  could those shows have been the final peak of high quality/energy Bb related shows?    I suspect so.  still, I eagerly anticipate a few good shows out of the current state of flux.    Hope I can catch just one more wave.    Wink
